Beautiful Disaster

Chapter 2

Lana's POV~

The first half of the day wasn't that hard. Probably because I wasn't paying attention and only talked when the teachers called on me to answer a question. Either than that, I was just another body in the classroom. I don't make a sound in class, so the teachers didn't really notice. I was grateful when the bell for lunch went off. Right now, I'm on my way to the cafeteria with a bag of lays sour cream and onion chips. I wonder how Austin's day went so far. When I enter the cafeteria, I immediately find my group of friends. As I make my way there I look around the cafeteria looking for Austin's leather jacket but it's nowhere in sight.

"Hey, what are you looking for?" My cousin Dani asked.

"Austin" I replied as I sat down inbetween her and Allison.

There was a comfortable silence since their was only the three of us. Just as I opened my bag of chips I felt the table shake.

"Hiya!" Lexi said as she plopped down on her bench. I smiled at her.

This was the order, starting from my left: Me, Allison, Chris's boyfriend (James), Chris, Lexi, Chad and then Dani. Chad, Dani and I have been friends since diapers. At first it was me and Chad because our mothers were friends. Then Dani was born and it was the three Musketeers, as our parents put it. We were inseparable. In kindergarten is where we met Lexi. She was this preppy little 5 year old, how could you miss her when all the kids were shitting on themselves and she was prancing around as if she was in the land of unicorns and rainbows. It wasn't until 2nd grade until Lexi told us she was adopted. It came off as a shock but then it did explain why she never let us go over her house. She said she was embrassed that her biological parents didn't want her. We didn't care where she came from, we just cared if she was still our friend. So, it was the four amigos until 3rd grade when we met Chris. Right off the bat, Lexi and I knew he was gay but he didn't know himself so we kept our mouths shut. Finally in 6th grade he came out gay. Needless to say me and Lexi were proud. Now it was the 5 of us. It wasn't until last year that we met Allison,she did virtual school.

I smiled at my group of friends. Suddenly, I smelled the most intoxicating scent that I've become accustomed to. Before I could fully turn to the left, Austin mushed his lips to mine. I heard a lot of groans and snickers but I only smiled into the kiss as one of his hands rested on my cheek and the other on my thigh. He pulled away to soon for my liking. I placed my hands on both sides of his neck and pulled his plump lips to mine. He tasted like spearmint gum and chapstick. He licked my bottom lip for entrance and I gladly obliged. I let out a moan as our tongues battled for dominance, I felt his hands tighten on my waist. I guess someone had had enough and pulled us apart.

"Ok stop it with the tongue bath. Some of us are still single by the way." Allison said with her ginger self.

"You're single by choice. I know a lot people who would love to date you" I said with a smile as Austin laid his head on my shoulder. I was now facing front.

"None of these filthy discussing boys are even worth a second glance." She said matter-of-factly. It's not that she's superficial, she just has a lot of self-esteem and doesn't want a boy to bring it down.

Everyone had their own little side conversations as Austin positioned me to face him. He first studied my face and pulled a strand of my hair behind my ear until he talked.

"I was thinking we should go away for the weekend." He said as he continued to study my features, smiling.

"Where would we go?" To be honest I liked the idea even though this is our first day back from winter break at Jefferson High School in Seattle, Washington.

"I don't know. I thought we'd go to San Francisco. To where I took you on our first date." He smiled. I adore his smile. I get butterflies in my stomach and my palms get sweaty when he smiles at me.

"I know. I thought you were going to kill me when we passed the state line." I joked. I swear to you, I even sent a goodbye text to my parents and sister. I was so scared that he was going to kill me. "But I like the idea of going back to where it all started." I put my arms around his neck.

"It's settled then. We're going. We'll leave on Friday after school." He kissed me, I guess to share the joy on his face.

*RING*

Awww. I didn't even get to finish my chips. Oh well, my next class is a new elective and he or she will just talk about the class rules and expectations, so I'll eat them then. Austin walked me to my class to find out that his next class is right next to mine. I kissed him goodbye before my breathe smelled like sour cream and onions.

The rest of the day went by fast. Before I knew it I was heading to the senior parking lot for Austin to drive me home.
