(Mikes POV)
I was in the period after lunch. 5th period. History. Ugh. I hated history. I mean, it was okay and all, but it just made me crazy bored. But the good part was that Lucas was in my class. My best friend since kindergarten.
"Dude.", Lucas said.
"What?", I was shutting my locker, after grabbing my ginormous textbook.
"I think Maisey likes me."
"Pssh."
"I'm serious!"
"Well, you can figure that out after school today. I've got other things to do."
"Like what? Kiss El?", He made obnoxious kissing noises.
"Shut up.", My face felt hot again.
"Dude, it's okay to have feelings for a girl. We've all done it.", That was the first time Lucas ever said something that was reasonable.
"Well.....It isn't like that, okay?!", We were inside the classroom, sitting down in the back.
"Okay.......?"
Lucas was always the most confident one. He is always up to saying what he really thinks. I like that about him.
We were in history, bored out of our minds. Me and Lucas already got busted once for passing notes. Could things get any worse? Just as that thought arrived, something unexpected happened.
A knock on the door greeted the class, as the lady behind the door called, "Michael Wheeler?"
I groaned a bit, but picked my stuff up and left. Lucas gave me a weird look as I was walking out the door. I had no clue what this was for, but hopefully I wasn't in trouble. The hallways were empty, which was odd because they are usually flooded with kids.
I was now down to the office, my mom waiting there for me. She smiled at me through the window.
"Michael, you have a dentist appointment. Let's go."
"Um...okay?", I had no clue where the random dentist appointment came from.
"Bye, Michael!", Mrs. Thomas called out to me. She was the office lady. I waved back.
I went up to my locker to grab my backpack. My mom stood by my side every second. When we went out to her car, I was so happy to leave. I checked my watch, which reminded me of El. 1:23. A few hours before I would normally get out. Good enough.
"Mom?"
"Yes, Michael?"
"I've told you this before, call me Mike. I don't like Michael. Okay?"
"Uh huh. Now, what were you saying?"
"Do we have time to pick El up?"
"Uh...I'm not sure. What time is it?"
"1:25."
"Your appointment isn't until 2:00....hhmm, I guess."
"Thanks mom!", She parked the car in the driveway.
"Yep."
Now, my best friend...well not 'friend', is going to my dentist appointment. Weird. But, fun. Maybe my mom will agree to take us out to eat. Or, maybe she'll take us somewhere fun.
