I decide I'll take my grandfather's advice and let her come to me. I think about her almost every moment and being able to see her from my window wasn't helping. I sit in the back of Biology while she sits in the front with her friends I'm pretty sure she doesn't know I'm in this class.

"Hi" the voice of a short brown skinned girl who pulls up a seat next to me says,

"Uh hi" I say quickly before turning my eyes back to Samantha, so close but yet so far,

"So what's your name?" she asks,

"Troy" I say quickly hoping she gets the hint that I'm not in mood to talk. She doesn't get the hint.

"I'm Nikki" she says smiling sweetly, unfortunately for me Nikki is adamant she's going to get to know me and I give in. She is pretty cool and smart 17, we do some talking in between taking notes. Class is soon over and Samantha still hasn't looked back,

"So you got class after this?" Nikki asks

"Not technically"

"Not technically?"

"Yea I have a tutorial"

"Oh wanna come chill with me then?" and without hesitation I agree. As we stand to leave the class I look up to see Sam looking at me.

There he is, the first time I'm seeing him since our episode, I tried to spend the weekend by Nicole but she had to go out. He stands in a tight blue T shirt and jeans with a girl close by, I smile trying not to let it bug me but it really did. They leave before I sit with the girls and Denise's boyfriend,

"Guess you're jealous now huh?" Denise says looking at me while playing with Darian's hair,

"I'm not jealous, I don't even like him" they all burst out laughing and I roll my eyes including Darian, I don't know why he doesn't go be with his friends. Every day Nicole, Ayesha and I endure through their incessant kissing. I started to miss what they have, that person to be with and tell how your day was but it isn't for me, relationships never work for me and I know they will never work for me but that doesn't mean I can't think about them. After being lost in my thoughts I grab my purse, I need the closest thing I have to companionship. Chocolate.

"Where you going?" Ayesha asks as I stand,

"For food I'm hungry and a little disgusted" I say pointing at Denise and Darian.

Before I know it all 5 of us were going for something to eat, we begin to make our way down the hill when a white car approaches us quickly, inside Troy and his little friend drive pass laughing and playing music loudly, I subconsciously roll my eyes and everyone looks at me,

"WHAT??" they shake their heads at me, I don't know why they bugging, the boy is free to have friends what am I to do? Tell him stop talking to her? We're not even friends.

When we finally reach the cafeteria we grab a table near the back, the caf is usually full around this time and getting a table is hard but today wasn't bad. The smells tickle my nose but nothing really appealed to me, chicken, fish, rice they all screamed no, what I really wanted to eat was tall, dark and had the most masculine scent I ever had the pleasure of inhaling, but he's off somewhere with some girl, They're probably ..... OMG, imagines of them having sex in the back seat of her car plague my mind, him giving her his all as she scratched all over his back. The images are too vivid,

"HEY! NEXT!"I voice of the cashier snaps me back to reality, I order my food and go to collect it.

After collecting my lunch I hardly pay attention to the conversation around the table furthermore my food. What if he really is done with me? Who could blame him tho I'm the most stressful person I know and besides I'm relationship cursed.
