Gone But Not Completely

chapter 3

Previously..

"Hey Everyone listen up!" Mr. Brooks says trying to get our attetion. "We have a new student who just transferred from Deer Creek....."

Im on my phone since I really dont care if we have a new student or not.

"....His name is Bradley."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My head snaps up so fast im suprised I dont have whiplash. I look to the front and see him there. Memories come flooding back. For a second I wanted to just run up to him and throw my arms around, but then I remember the last thing he said to me. Waves of anger start to wash over me, but I also feel sadness too.

"Bradley you can sit in the empty desk next to Rydell." His eyes dart to me and I feel my heart start to beat fast. I act like I didn't see him and pretend to text on my phone.

"Mr. Brooks Megan sits there." A student states. Yea that's right! Thank you random student!

I hold my breath.

"Oh thats right well I guess you can sit next to David."

I breath a sigh of relief.Thank you whoever said that! I'm feeling so many mixed emotions right now I dont know how im keeping it together.

I feel his gaze leave me and I feel my heart beat start to slow down. I hear foot steps move to the other side of the room and someone sit down at a desk. I glance up to only see that Bradley gaze is on me again. I feel my cheeks start to burn. I see a smirk form onto his face. I pretend I dont notice him and start looking at my phone. I can feel his gaze on me and it makes me nervous. Why does he have to be in this class? Out of all the other hours and teachers why mine? Its just my luck.

I barely heard anything Mr. Brooks tought. I was to scared to look up, afraid if I did I would see Bradley looking at me. The same questions start going through my hed again. Why? Why did he have to transfer? If only there was another high school in town, I guess that would defeat the purpose of cross town rivals, but still he told me he didnt want to see me again and frankley I didnt want to see him again.

----Ring-----

The bell rings. Thank god! I thought I would never get out of here! I race out of the classroom to find Joy. I really want to find Ashley and tell her what happend so i get my phone out of my skinny jeans and start to text away.

"I need you! This just turned into the worse day ever! Im about to lose it!" I send the text. She probally wont read it until after school. I wish we were out of school right now! Well one more hour to go...

I wasnt able to pay attention at all during class! All I was thinking about was Bradley! I though I was over him so why cant I get him out of my head! Im going crazy. I like Ryker! Ryker the boy with the cutest smile and eyes. The guy that wouldn't hurt me or say anything/do anything like what Bradley did to me. I wish he was here right now.

"Rydell are you okay?"

"Rydell?"

"Anyone in there?!"

I realize My friend Lexi is waving a hand in front of me and is tring to talk to me. I jump and hit my knee on the desk.

"Oww!"I say rubbing my knee. "What are you doing?"

"Well I was trying to get your attention for over 5 minutes. The final bell is about to ring. Whats going on?"

"Nothing. I just have some things on my mind."

"Yea it sure does look like nothing. You kept clenching and un clenching your fists." She looks at me worriedly.

"Really its nothing. Dont worry about it."

"Well ok but if you want to talk about it let me know." She says in a uncertain voice. i can tell she is defiantly not buying it.

"Yea. Thanks."

I get home and Ashley finally calls me.

"Whats wrong? What happend? Do I need to beat someone up?"

"Remember that guy I was telling you about? My childhood bestfriend."

"Yea why?"

"He is the new guy that transferred to Deer Creek."

"Oh My gosh are you okay? What happend?"

"No im really not. I found out it was him because I have Mr.Brooks class with him. Its already hard enough to concentrate in Algebra and now he is in there!?"

"Wow. Do you still have feelings for him?"

"I thought I didnt but when I saw him all I wanted to do was throw my arms around him, but then I remembered everything that happend." I felt all of the emotions I felt earlier again but alot heavier. "Nothing was really settled between us. But I really like Ryker alot. He is so sweet. Im just so confused right now. One minute im sad the next im angry."

"I think you should really just move on. You have Ryker now. I mean you guys arent dating. yet. but he still treats you way better than that Bradley did and he really likes you. Its obvious! And everyone is already jealous of you guys!" I let out a small giggle my face turning red even when im only talking to a person through the phone I get embarrassed. Gosh Rydell get ahold of your self!

"I guess your right! But I dont know how to act around Bradley." Its true I really dont. I haven't seen him in forever but I mean its not like I plan on talking to him.

"Just ignore him. You dont have to do anything thing."

"Yea your right. Thanks for puting up with me Ashley." I say grinning.

"Hey its what I do! Im the best friend remember? It was in the contract." She starts laughing and starts snorting which make me laugh even harder.

"Haha I will talk to you tomorrow!"
