Its Monday again and Im dreading this day at school. I grab my bags and a granola bar and head out the door. I have a car to drive to school but today I feel like walking and I left a little early which means I will have time to get there.
The walk in the fresh air was nice but now its time for class. My three classes go by surprisingly fast and its my lunch period. I didn't bring a lunch today and I don't want to buy one so i make my way to the courtyard.
I sit on a bench in the shade cooling me off. I pull out my phone and just scroll through twitter with no purpose. I just want to waste time so I can go home. Actually, I start my new job at the diner up the road today. I guess thats something to look forward to, I need the extra money for when I go off to college.
Lunch period still has forty-five minutes left and I see that I've wasted no time at all. Right as Im about to get up I hear a familiar voice behind me.
"Hey Emma." Justin flashes me a smile and sits down next to me.
"H-hi Justin." I curse myself for stuttering, why am I so nervous?
"Why are you all alone? Don't you have some friends to be with?" He asks semi-concerned.
"Um actually no. I don't have any friends to be with." I flash him a quick smile and turn my head away.
I hear him say "oh" and i don't really have a response.
I nervously pick at my nails. God what is wrong with me? I never get nervous!
"I-its a nice day out." I stutter again!
"You don't have to be nervous, its just me, relax." He sets his hands on my thigh and lightly squeezes it.
I let out a little chuckle and we sit here in an awkward silence, neither of us wanting to speak a word.
JUSTIN'S POV
I think its incredibly adorable when she gets nervous. She always stutters her words and picks at her nails. I just find everything about her fascinating.
Our conversation went really no where but it is a start. I just want to be able to open with her and I want her to want that same thing.
We both just sit here looking out at the people in the courtyard. Im looking around and I cant see a girl as beautiful as she is.
I hear her move and she quickly stands to her feet. She starts walking away and I do nothing about it. God damn it Justin, go!
I rise to my feet, catch up with her, and turn her around.
"It was nice talking with you." I give her a kiss on her cheek and then head in the other direction without giving her time to speak.
EMMA'S POV
I don't want to sit her in this silence anymore. I grab my things and quickly stand making my way away from Justin. I thought he wouldn't follow but I'm soon corrected when he turns me around and kisses my cheek and then runs away. That sent butterflies to my stomach and I probably look like an idiot standing here while I blush. I stand staring in the direction in which he took off in and then i hear the bell ring and its time to go to 5th period.
I arrive at Mr. Wilson's class on time and I take my seat. Im not late this time so I don't get a lecture from him.
His class is probably the worst but I have to take it in order to graduate.
I take out a piece of notebook paper and start doodling. Before i know what I'm doing, I have Justin's name written in a heart. I crumble up the paper and shove it in my bag.
"Miss Anderson, do you care to share whats on that paper?" he makes his way to me.
My heart is about to beat out of my chest as he gets closer.
"N-no sir." I say and he gives me a nod and turns around.
The rest of my day goes by quickly and as soon as I know it, Im heading out of the door and going home.
Im quickly met again by Jake as he pins me against the wall.
"Stop!" This time I can scream.
Jake is pulled off of me and I see Justin throw him to the ground. He gets down and and punches his nose.
"Asshole." I hear Justin mumble.
"Come with me Im driving you home." Justin ushers me along with his hand on my back.
We reach his car and he opens the door for me. I awkwardly climb in and he shuts the door. He gets in the drivers seat and starts the ignition.
"Im sorry I punched him in front of you." Justin keeps his eyes on the road.
"Its fine, really" Jake deserved that and much more for what he did to me. Justin doesn't know about that, but he did do me a favor.
We both stay silent until Justin arrives at my house. He pulls in the driveway and I gab my stuff and we say our goodbyes.
I flop onto my bed and close my eyes letting out a deep breath. This has been an eventful day. I wonder why Justin is acting so different all of a sudden? I like it.
I finish up all of the homework that i have for tonight and head downstairs in my uniform for work.
"Sweetie, do you want anything to eat?" my mom has plates set out with spaghetti in a pot.
"No mom, I don't have time. I start my shift at the diner in a few minutes." I put my shoes on and grab my purse.
"Be safe and have fun." I smile at my mom and step outside. Im off to my first shirt at the diner.
