Mrs.Mavericks

Chapter 3

Another month has passed since Shay's confessions and we were still trying to figure out what she was going to do with the pregnancy. She was showing but not by much. The sweaters she wore covered her up nicely and she still looked stylish.

She hasn't had another breakdown, so, that was good and her grades have been getting better since I've started helping her out. She even began hanging out with me and my group. We've all have gotten closer and I love it. I want all of my friends to get along with each other and be like a mini family.

" V, are you listening? We're getting a new classmate. He should be here any minute." Jackson whispered beside me. This wasn't the first time a late new student came here so I wasn't really interested.

I turned my head in the opposite direction of Jackson and went back to sleep. Our professer wasn't "in the mood" to teach today so she let us have free time. It sounds childish but it's what she called it so we rolled with it. Jackson kept poking my side and pulling my hair to get my attention but today I was ridiculously tired.

All throughout class, Jackson, kept trying to wake me up. I got tired of it so I jabbed him in the ribs with my elbow. He let out a squeak, which made all of our classmates look at him and laugh, and the teacher told him to see her after class. She was really pissed for some reason, today.

When the bell rang, I ran out of the classroom and waited by my truck for the gang. Sam and Blo were already there, sharing a cigarette. We stood around and made small talk until Sam told Pablo and I to shush. We did.

" Don't look so quick but there is a guy over there staring at you, V." She whispered. Pablo became alert and began looking around the campus. I felt surprised that anybody was even staring at me, I don't recall saying or doing anything ot anyone.

" Does he look upset? What does he look like?" I asked her.

" He doesn't look angry or anything. He actually just looks curious. Uhm, he has dark eyes, I'm not sure what color, dark brown, curly hair. He's tall and he's wearing an SF Varsity jacket. Oh, and he's wearing a snap back hat, backwards."

When she said that, my heart leapt into my throat. I knew exactly who it was. It had to be him. As I turned to look at him, he was already getting into a car that pulled up infront of the building. The only thing I could see was his hat. It was the same one he gave me.....

*******************************

" Shay! Shay! Quick we need to talk!" I pulled Shay from the couch and dragged her upstairs to her room.

" Okay, pregnant girl, here!" She said pointing towards herself with her thumbs. She sat down on her bed and looked at me expectantly.

" So what do we need to talk about? I was just about to eat my lunch."

" He's here, Shay. He's fucking here and I saw him with my own two eyes! Well I didn't actually see him, I only saw his hat, but Sam described him to me and he's here. Oh my gosh! He's freakin-"

" V! Calm down before you burn a whole in my rug with all of that pacing. Now who's here?" She guided me on the bed with her and grabbed my face. We only did this to each other so we could tell the truth. It was our little thing.

" The boy from the party. I haven't thought about him in two months and now he shows up and he's all that I can think about. What am I going to do? What should I say to him when and if we meet, again?" I was freaking out. I knew I had it bad for the guy when my heart began racing and I was only thinking about him. He's actually here and I don't know how to face him.
