The Hard Doubled Life

Throughout the day.

I walked in to class and went to my seat and noticed Noah was here, who sits next to me. THIS IS GOING TO BE THE WORST DAY EVER!  

I sat down, pulled out my notebook and pencil and started doodling. I could feel Noah looking at me.  

When I focused on what I was drawing I giggled.  

I drew a dog peeing on a tree.  

I ripped the paper out and shoved it in my bag. When I looked back up I noticed Romeo was 2 rows in front of me. I forgot! He had all of my classes! Hmm wonder how this is going to be like, I thought. Then started doodling again.  

When my teacher, Mr. Faitsy, walked in he said, "Get with your partners"  

Aww Fuck! Noah Was My Partner! I Totally Forgot!  

I looked over at Noah and saw him with a big smirk on his face. Oh Hell No!  

"You better wipe that fucking smirk off your face before I do." I threatened  

He looked sad. But Oh Fucking Well. I got up and scooted my desk over to his ad sat back down in a grumpy mood.  

"Get To work" The teacher said to the class.  

"Is it alright if I do all the work?" Noah asked.  

Well I’m leaving soon anyway. I won't need to care about this project. Plus I don't really understand it anyway. "Go ahead." I said without looking at him.  

I kept doodling and when the page was almost full I realized I drew the most randomest things. Like sharks, ice cream, stars, guitars, clouds, candy, faces and whatnot. Every now and then I could feel Noah look at me. After a while I glanced at the clock. 5 more minutes! I sighed of relief. I went back to doodling until I was interrupted.  

"Look...Amanda, I need to explain about what happened yesterday." Noah said softly. Ha-ha like that was going to change anything.  

I looked at him long and hard.  

"Explain what?"  

"Explain what happened yesterday... at the mall. Look, I really really like you Amanda, I do. But what happened with that girl wasn't me. She was all over-"  

"Ooh fuck off! Like I'm really going to believe you. There's nothing to explain, Noah. Nothing. I don't want to hear it. At all."  

"Amanda I'm serious! You have to believe-"  

"No, I don't have to believe you. I never will. And I'm serious too Noah. I don't want to talk about it! I’m done-"  

"I went looking for you! It was hell. I fell horrible that I let that happen! I was still looking for you late at night! That shows that I care about you"  

"No. No it doesn't. It just shows you were trying to get what you did wrong out of the way."  

"No it do-"  

"I don't want to talk about it! Do you not understand?! I'm done with this. I'm done with you, Noah. I don't want to hear it. I don't want to hear your excuses or whatever! Just forget everything that EVER happened between us! You are just a partner I used to have and just might have to work with in the future. That's it. End of conversation." I said right before the bell rang. I shoved my stuff in my bag and left.  

Outside, on my way over to my next class someone grabbed my hand. And I knew who it was. Only one person in this school could grip my hand with so much pressure.  

Noah.  

I swung my leg back high enough to hit him in the stomach. Damnit! I should of aimed lower!
