Love is Art

Chapter 6

It's now Monday, after work yesterday I spent the rest of my time finishing up my drawing. It looks pretty good I just wished I had more time to work on it, but this will have to do.

It's the last 5 minutes of Calc and I just want to be out of here already. I know I need this credit but I can't understand a single thing we're being taught! Whoever can up with Calc is my worse enemy! We would never be friends, I don't care how nice you were, you're the one who created the absolute worse subject in the entire school system therefore I hate you with all my guts!

I can't stop looking at the clock only 3 minutes and 27 seconds left, aka the longest 3 minutes and 27 seconds of my life!

FINALLY! The bell rang, I jump out of my seat, grab my stuff and go to art.

I walk into art and suddenly stop when I see Claire talking to Mason. And the only thing worse than that is. HE'S SMILING AT HER, LIKE HE IS ACTUALLY ENJOYING THEIR CONVERSATION!!!

Claire has taken everyone from me I will not let her take away Mason! I know I just met him a week ago, but I really like him and enjoy his company. He's so genuine and not like any other guy I've met.

Claire spots me, says goodbye to Mason and then walks out of the classroom. Thank goodness. I walk to my seat next to Mason, set my stuff down and just stare at him.

"What?" He asks wondering why I'm staring at him. It's not a good stare either

"Why were you talking to Claire?" I ask. I don't want to play any games I just want to know what Claire said to him.

"Because we're friends," he states nonchalantly.

"Why are you friends with her?"

"Because she's a nice person," did he really just say she was a nice person! He doesn't know anything about her or what she did to me! I need to tell him but I can't just blurt it out, I need to keep my composure. So I take a deep breath and continue.

"What makes you think she's a nice person??"

"Well first of all she didn't ram into me on my first day here, and second of all why does it matter to you?" He says with some attitude

"Okay first of all," I say mimicking him, "you know me running into you that day was an accident and second of all she isn't a nice person, not even close to one. She took all my friends away from me and my ex-boyfriend cheated on me with her."

His expression doesn't change at all he just stares at me.

"Well, I'm sorry to hear that Hailey, but Claire is a nice person. You just don't know her well enough yet. Yeah, she might have done those things but she has a good heart."

Is he freaking serious! He's new to this school what does he know, nothing. That's what he knows; nothing!

"You don't know anything about her! I was best friends with her since elementary school until she went after my boyfriend and took all of my friends with her! She took everything away from me, everything! Do you know how it feels starting your senior year with no friends and all the looks you get in the hallway because everybody knows what happened! No you don't. So I would appreciate it if you would stop saying she's a 'nice person' because that is bullshit!" I don't even give him a chance to respond. I get up out of my seat and leave school.

I walk out of the building and it's pouring rain. All my clothes are now soaking wet, but I don't mind it. I don't feel like driving would be the best option so instead I walk home.

I am just so flustered that he can't see her lies, she has gotten to him somehow. And he probably didn't even believe me. I just need to cool down and luckily the rain is helping.

I am almost home when I hear a whimper coming from a cardboard box in front of me. I check out what's inside and it's a puppy. Who leaves a puppy in a box when it's pouring outside? I grab the puppy out of the box and carry him home, yes it's a him. I checked.

We get inside, I take him upstairs and change my clothes. I walk to bathroom start the water and make sure it's warm. I put the puppy in the tub and give him a bath, I think he likes it. He is the cutest dog I've ever seen. I'm not very good with breeds so I have no clue what kind of dog he is. I'll need to google dog breeds.

"You like that don't you?" I say in my baby voice.

"Yeah you do, don't worry you are safe here. I will take good care of you. Now I just need to give you a name." What's a good dog name? Scout, spots, well he doesn't have any spots. Ummm, 

"Oh! I know, Charlie. That's your name. You like your bath Charlie? Yeah I know you do!"

When I'm done giving Charlie his bath we sit on the couch and I watch tv while Charlie sleeps on my lap. Have you ever seen anything cuter that a puppy sleeping on someone's lap, cause I haven't!

Charlie is the cutest dog and really got my mind off of the argument Mason and I had.

"I am so happy I found you Charlie!"
