After, my accident and I clean up myself. I’ve got new clean clothes on. I start walking to my actual locker. Everyone is getting yelled at for being inside this morning. They made this rule, if you don’t want to go to class and sit there quietly, then you have to go outside until the first bell. So, has I’m walking along, here comes Owen. With a girl. His new girlfriend? She’s really pretty let me tell you. But, I am so glad he moved on. I needed him to. But, first anything happened I needed to talk to him.
‘Hey Owen, can I talk to you for a minute or two? It won’t take long, I promise.’ I give him a shy smile and put my hair to the side. My locker is right in front of him, so I start to walk over to him but, I’m not walking to him. I’m walking towards him. To my locker.
‘Umm… I guess we can talk. If, you want to. Anna, you can go outside or, you can wait over there. But, this will only be for a minute I promise.’ Oh. So her name is Anna. I never heard of her. But oh well. Let’s get this over with.
‘Owen, I’m sorry. I just want you to know that I never meant to hurt you, or anything. Trust me. Umm... I’m glad you moved on. It’s awesome. Anna, is really pretty! I love her hair. Is it natural? Anyway, I don’t want us to hate each other. I never wanted that. I just want you to be happy… without me… I would love to be friends, again. But nothing more than that. I can’t do that.’ He looks at my locker door. And then when I know his not going to look back at me. I start turning the nob to nine then, to thirty-one, and last but not least, I turn it to twenty-three. Then the door opens.
‘Don’t be sorry. I don’t care. I just want you to be happy just, like you want me to be happy.’ He smirks. ‘I did move on, yes. Anna, is really pretty, isn’t she? The only problem is, she reminds me to much of… you. Her hair is natural, just like yours Ski. Naturally curly.’ He smirks again. Jeez, I love his smile/smirk. ‘Ski, I don’t hate you. I never have, and never will. I want to be friends again. Nothing more than that either. I love you and I always will. But, never in the same way.’ His smile is gone. Now, it’s only a half-smile.
‘I am happy without being with you, but are you happy without me?’
‘I am happy. But, not as happy as I use to be.’ Now, the half-smile is gone. Oh well, at least I know we’re friends again.
‘Okay. So friends again?’ I smile and he nods. I reach out to him to give him a hug. He lets me. He actually missed me with all this happening? I can feel, he has been wanting to hold me again. But, he knows he can never hold me like he used to. God, I miss him, so much. But, I love Chase. And, I want to be with Chase. But, Owen has Anna now, right? He’ll be fine, right? I hope so. And I’m pretty sure he will be perfectly fine without me. He was fine, before I came here. And, he will be fine after I’m gone. So now he can move on with Anna, and I’m already moving on with Chase. Sounds good to me. J
‘Yeah, well, see you later. Bye, Skylar.’ He was going to call me Ski. Like he used to. But, I guess it’s too hard for him right now. I understand that.
I finish putting my books in my locker. I start to walk outside to meet up with Chase, Caleb, and of course Tiffany (the brat). And when, I almost take a step, something or someone taps on my shoulder. Lord, who is it now.
‘Good morning Skylar. You remember about that new student I told you about last night? Well, she’s here now. So you’re going to show her around. Okay?’ It was Mr. Biker. I have forgotten about the new student. Oh well, I guess.
‘Yeah, I remember.’ There she is. Short brown hair, brown eyes, a perfect round face, everything was perfect on this girl. Jesus, she is one pretty one.
“Sonny, this is Skylar Mckae. And, Skylar, this is Sonny Peterson. And, Skylar here is Sonny’s schedule and papers that need to be signed by the teachers.’ Sonny, gives me a shy smile while. I smile at her and get the papers from Mr. Biker.
