Senior Year

Nervous?

class finally ended. it felt like it lasted forever because I was just sitting there drowning in my own embarrassment. But I also kept thinking about demi blushing at what I said about her to alyssa. Why would she care? I mean I guess it's nice to know that people think that you're pretty but I just don't know. As everyone left the classroom to go home, Mr. Scott included, I approached Miss. Lovato. She handed me my phone and I headed for the door. As I started walking away, I heard her sweet voice.

"Hey Emily." I turned around to a smiling Demi. "thank you" and she winked.

"Uhh yeah. You're welcome?" I said like it was a question pretending to not know what she was talking about.

With that, I walked out of the classroom and nearly sprinted to my locker to find Alyssa and there she was.

"Dude you're never going to believe what just happened." I said panting from walking so fast.

"What? Are you okay? Whats wrong?"

"Ill tell you when we get outside, come on." I said grabbing her arm and dragging her through the hallway and parking lot until we finally reached my car.

"She read our messages from before class." I spat out.

"You're joking." Alyssa said bursting into laughter.

"NO." I laughed too. "I got my phone taken in class and forgot to lock it and our messages were up and then after class when I went to get it back she said thank you and winked at me!"

"Well damn, maybe you should go for it. I'm straight but the whole teacher thing is hot?" she said nudging my arm. "But anyway are you coming over? We can just take my car and i'll bring you back here later to get yours."

That being said we got into alyssa's car and headed to her house which was almost as big as mine. We drove through the gated entrance and she parked the car. Walking inside we were greeted by her mom and headed upstairs to her bedroom. Alyssa pulled out her laptop, logged into facebook, and searched the name Demi Lovato. I crept over her shoulder to see what she was doing.

"Oh my god Alyssa quit."

As she searched, she couldn't find her name. Again on twitter and again on instagram and nothing.

"Maybe Demi Lovato isn't her real name?" Alyssa said confused.

"Or maybe she just isn't on social media." I stated.

Alyssas got a text.

"Oh that reminds me, remember derek?" she asked..

"Oh how could I forget dreamy derek, he's all you talk about. And I still think he's way too old for you."

"Yeah yeah shut it. His frat is throwing a party this weekend as an end of summer thing. You in?"

"Why not, it wouldn't be the first party you dragged me to if I said no" I laughed and so did she.

After a few hours of hanging out it was finally 8 pm and the sun was beginning to set. Alyssa and I left to go get my car from the school. Pulling in, we noticed there was still another car in the parking lot and we both agreed that that was weird. Brushing it off she pulled up next to my car and I got out. Alyssa pulled away and I noticed that Demi was just leaving school so I quickly got in my car hoping that she wouldn't see me. As she was walking towards my car to get to hers I noticed that she was on the phone and I overheard her conversation.

"Yeah she's cute."
"Because she's a student."

"I don't know, she dresses like a lesbian. Today she wore ripped jeans, an adidas hoodie and shoes to match. Maybe she's not gay I don't know." I looked down noticing that was the exact outfit that I was wearing.

"No shes 18. I read her school file. Clean record, good grades, beautiful. She's basically the full package."

I started my car interrupting her conversation. And I heard her say "hey derek I gotta go. I'll see you at the frat party this weekend."

'This weekend? Derek? Oh god no' I thought. I put my car in reverse when I heard a tap on my window which scared the hell out of me so I jumped and rolled my window down.

"Hi-uh Miss. Lovato. What are you still doing here?" I asked stuttering.

"I was writing my first day report for school. What're you doing here?" she asked.

"I was just picking up my car to go home."

"Mhmm and you wouldn't have happened to be listening in on my conversation?" she asked knowing damn well I was.

"Well I uhm may have heard bits and pieces. Its no big deal I gotta go. I'll see you this weekend."

"This weekend?" she said confused. "What's this weekend?"

"That party you were talking about with derek. I'm assuming that was Derek Needham. He's talking to my friend alyssa. We were invited. Unless you're dating him. or you were talking about a different Derek"

"You're rambling." she smiled.

"I do that when I get nervous." I said instantly regretting it.

"Well, I guess i'll see you this weekend then?" she asked.

"Yeah I guess. Bye." I said rolling my window up and driving off.
