A Chance At Love

All the emotions

Beep beep beep beep
I woke up at 6:30am at the sound of my alarm, it was Wednesday. I rubbed my eyes and dragged my feet out of bed, I walked towards my windows and pulled my curtains open, I winced at the bright light of the sun rising, I turned around and picked out an outfit for the day, a grey, baggy jumper and black skinny jeans, I laid it out on my bed and grabbed a towel off my bedroom door, I walked into the bathroom and showered, which woke me up a lot. I walked into my bedroom with my dripping wet hair and a towel tied around my body, I quickly changed into my outfit and towel dried my hair, I then tied it up in a high pony tail, I sat on my bed and checked my phone, I had another text from Grayson, this time just saying
Grayson xx:
Morning beautiful
He sent them to me every morning, I groaned in complaint, knowing I couldn't reply back, I made my way down the stairs to eat breakfast and feed the parrots.

I had finally arrived at school, I left earlier than usual as I wasn't walking with the twins, I texted Ethan so he would know not to stop at my house, I decided not to penny board to school, which was different, I like to penny board when I'm happy. And I'm not happy. I walked through the school gates not looking at anyone, I heard students shout out curse words and "slut" or "whore" because Grayson and I were off school at the same time, I ignored them all and walked to my lockers where Casey was waiting with Alex "hey!" She called out "Hey Beth" Alex said "are you feeling better today?" Casey asked me, I started shaking, I shook my head "how come you came to school today then?" She asked, I shrugged my shoulders, Alex then looked behind me "here comes Ethan and Grayson, maybe they'll help you forget about feeling ill" he told me, I shuddered with the thought of seeing Grayson, but not being able to talk to him, I didn't know what to do, I felt my eyes watering and my face going red "hey man!" I heard the twins shout in sync to Alex, he lifted his arms for a 'guy hug' so whilst doing so I jumped into him arms and gave him a huge hug, I snuggled my head into his shoulder and started to softly cry, he stumbled back slightly and left his hands in the air, as if to tell Grayson he didn't know what I was doing. I don't know why I grabbed Alex, and I'm starting to regret it, but he soon wrapped his arms around me and rocked me back and fourth comforting me. I started to calm down, but that was until he passed me over to Grayson who hugged me tightly, I loved his hugs, they really helped to calm me and warm me, but I knew I shouldn't be doing this, I stepped back and lightly pulled his arms off me "you okay? What was that about?" Grayson asked me soothingly, I just shrugged and turned around to face Casey "I need to talk to you" I told her sternly "oh..um...okay" she stuttered, I grabbed her arm gently and pulled her to one side, away from everyone else, I opened my mouth to tell her my situation, and whilst doing so, saw Ella join the boys, Casey and I looked at her and I smiled weakly, I motioned for her to come over so she did "hey, what's up?!" She asked really upbeat and happily "well basically..." I started "when Grayson and I stayed off school yesterday, we were with each other, skiving off school" both girls nodded in confusion "we didn't do anything we just hung out, and my brother overheard me and my sister talking about it and him being the little dirtbag he is, went and told my parents, now I'm not allowed to see or talk or have anything to do with Grayson" I said quickly, they both gasped "what?!" Ella exclaimed, Casey was speechless "but Grayson doesn't know that so he thinks it's just another normal day" I sighed, both girls did too "help me" I begged, starting to well up with tears "I don't know what to say!" Ella told me "I wish I could help, but I have no clue what to do! I don't have much experience with boys" Casey said, I sighed and nodded as I wiped my tears away "hey Ellabells" Ethan called "we're all going to the canteen, come meet us there when your done with your little chat okay" Ella nodded and the boys all turned and walked away.
