Maggie's POV
The three of us got off the bus. We stood outside waiting for the bell to ring.
"How much longer?" Laura asked.
"Ummmmm-" Rue said.
"8:20, 10 more minutes."
"Ok." Laura says, shrugging.
People flood off the buses. All I hear are loud shouts and murmurs of my friends. The front doors slowly become less crowded, everyone is inside. All the sudden, loud running footsteps come up behind me. Two arms wrap around my waist and a kiss is put on my cheek.
"Hey beautiful." He whispers in my ear, it's Noel.
"Hey." I say as he grabbed my hand.
"You guys are so cute." I heard Laura mumble.
"Whatever." I rolled my eyes.
"I'll be leaving now." Rue said. I saw her run forward. Then I saw Jason.
"Ok then!" Laura said.
"Hey War." Will said, walking up to Laura.
"Hey." She said, looking dreamily into his eyes.
"Let's go inside." Will pulled Laura inside.
"It's just us now." Noel shrugged.
"Whatever, I don't care." I said as he wrapped his arms around my waist.
Vivian walked past us and hissed;
"You don't deserve him."
"Vivian." Noel said, whipping around. "You're just jealous of her. You want me back, and it's not happening. So drop it and leave her alone."
"Uh! Whatever! I do not get jealous." Vivian crossed her arms.
"Leave Vivian." Noel spat.
"Fine." Vivian and her crew pranced away.
Noel hugged me and gave me a kiss on the top of my head. He picked me up by the waist and spun me around in a circle.
"Stop!" I giggled.
"No!" He laughed back.
Both of our bags are on the floor. The bell rings and we grabbed our stuff. I threw my bag over my shoulder, he did the same. Noel took my hand and we walked into the building.
