"The best feeling is the world is...when you look at that special someone and they are already smiling at you."


[31]

HAVE YOU EVER wondered what your life would be like if a certain event didn't happen? Yeah, me too.

For the past week, the days have become colder and darker and so has my life. I won't let them see me weak because I'm not a weak person. David hasn't made an appearance since the confrontation with Gary and me, and I hope it stays like this. Although, the suspense of this whole situation is making me more and more anxious with each passing hour of every day.

I sigh and close my locker door, locking it in the process. I hug my books closer to my chest as I feel judgmental stares and glares on me.

Sometimes, I want it to go back to the way it was. No stares and no glares because I am --  was the silent girl.

The girl that didn't talk.

Now though? Now everyone knows me as the girl that stole Adam away from everyone. A slut or maybe a whore, it depends on the student's mood.

"Hey, Babe!" I hear a very cheerful Lily say from beside me. I look up and grin at her.

"Hey! How's everything been?" I ask. Lily shrugs her shoulders and adjusts the strap of her school bag.

"The usual, you know? Didn't get my homework done last night which is just great..." She mumbles. I laugh and nod my head in agreement.

"That makes the two of us," I utter back.

"Make that three," someone says from beside me. I jump and bump into Lily in the process.

"Woah there, Prezioso," I hear Adam exclaim. I look at Adam through my eyelashes and quickly pick up the book that had fallen on the ground.

"Asshole," I mutter under my breath. Adam laughs before he is shoved into me, causing me to fall on my butt.

"What are you two love birds up to again?" Nolan suddenly asks, appearing out of nowhere. Adam offers me his hand in which I take a hold of gratefully and smile.

"We were just telling each other about what we thought of your latest motives to getting with the new girl..." I reply with, eyeing Adam carefully. Adam looks over at me and grins, nodding his head.

"Exactly that," Adam says and points his finger between the two of us.

"We're lovebirds, Nolan? Are you just jealous that we have more of a relationship then you'll ever have with anyone?" Adam asks casually in a joking manner.

Nolan punches Adam in the arm and grabs his head into a headlock. I roll my eyes at their typical boyish play and look over at Lily who's doing the exact same thing. We both shake our heads before turning on our heels and walking through the student filled hallway.

"What lesson do you have next?" I ask.

"Double fucking math," Lily groans.

"Fun..." I mutter. Lily nods her head and shrugs her shoulders. "Mum and Dad say that if I don't get an A in Math, I won't be able to get my dream job..."

"Oh..."

"Yeah," Lily mumbles. "I know."

We stop out front of my classroom and bid our final goodbyes. I sigh when the familiar gut feeling rests back into my stomach. He's back.
