It was Monday morning and I couldn't of felt any worse. The sun was shining into my room as I rolled out of bed and hoped in the shower, once I was out I put my hair in a towel and started my makeup. After I was done I let my hair down into their natural curls, I couldn't be bothered with it.
I slipped on some high waisted denim shorts with a oversized thrasher shirt, I put on my old vans and sprayed some perfume. I wasn't hungry so I skipped breakfast.
"Your always hungry Hun, what's up?" Mom said kissing my cheek
"Nothing" I said putting on a fake smile but all I wanted to do was wipe off this makeup and crawl back into bed.I showed up to school late, and walked into my science class. I tired to walk to my seat without being seen but I failed
"Grace, your late" my teacher announced for the whole class
"Oh really?" I said under my breath turning towards Mr. Stevens
"Take a seat and we'll talk after class"
"Great" I said sitting at the back of the classAlly and Liv gave me a look because I didn't sit near them but I didn't feel like getting sympathy or talking about Grayson.
I sat next to Sam, the guy that won the photography prize, I didn't even realise he was in this class until just now.
"Hey" he whispered tapping my table
I smiled "oh, hey" I replied
"Why you sitting back here?" He questioned
"Enough talking" Mr Stevens yelled
We gave each other a look and tried not to laughHalf way through class we were to get into partners so I grabbed Sams hand before Ally could even stand up.
The whole time everyone was writing the results of the experiment we were suppose to be doing Sam and I were drawing funny pictures of each other on the back of the worksheet, we were laughing so much my stomach began to ache. I never laugh that hard, and it felt nice.
The bell rang and I couldn't escape Ally and Liv any longer
"Hey" they both said walking over to Sam and I as the rest of the class left
"Hey" I said still half laughing from Sam
"This is Sam" I say nudging him
"Hi I'm Liv" liv smiles
Ally doesn't bother to introduce herself
"What's up with you?" She asked rudely
"What's up with me? What's up with you?" I said angrilyHer and Liv looked at each other before I tried to leave
"Grace wait, you can't be angry at us for what Grayson did" Ally says
"I'm not angry" I lie
"Okay, well are you at least gonna sit with us at lunch?" Liv askedI looked at Sam to help me, and like the angel he is he understood what was happening
"Uh actually she's behind in photography class and our teacher said I should help her study, so she can catch up before the holidays" he says
I smile at him as if to say 'thank you' he nods and the girls look at each other"Okay, well text me" Ally says grabbing Livs arm and walking out
"Your my saviour" I say to Sam pretending to bow down to him
He laughed "so what was that about"
"Ugh don't even get me started" I say linking arms with him and walking out into the hallSam and I sat together at lunch, outside on a seat under the big tree, it was nice. I never sat outside and I liked the warmth.
We laughed and he told me about how at the start of the year he thought our photography teacher was secretly a frog, I died laughing at how stupid it sounded.
"I mean, did he have the hiccups 24/7 or was he just croaking like a frog?" He said so seriously I began to believe it.
We figured out we had science, art and photography together, and our lockers were right across from each other. We started talking about a bunch of random things and I felt so comfortable with him, not gonna lie when I first spoke to him in class I thought he was cute, he has brown hair and green eyes, his teeth are PERFECT which made his laugh 10x better. He is tanned and pretty tall almost as tall as Grayson.
We talked non stop all lunch and I ended up telling him about how my mom was allergic to dogs so we could never get one, and he told me he has two dogs, one golden retriever named palo and a Labrador named chase.
"Hey you should come over tonight, you can meet my dogs" he laughed
"Really? I'd love that" I smiled as the bell rangAs we walked into the cafeteria to get to the hall I seen Grayson looking at me from the table with all my friends. In fact they were all looking at me, and I didn't care at all.
