Everywhere I Turn {Completed}{Unedited}

05 | C H A P T E R

I have to go to school.

I don't have to go to school.

I have to.

I don't have to.

It was like picking petals of a flower, this decision.

What if Isac told? What if the whole school knows? What if?  What if?

That's all I had were the "What ifs?"

Surely, if he told, it would be all over social media.

I finally made my choice. I can't stay away from school forever. Might as well get it over with if he did tell.

I looked into my closet. On one side were all of my crop tops. Can't wear those.

After minutes of deciding, I picked out a maroon dress and paired it with black pumps.

I took 30 minutes to curl my hair and applied mascara to my eyelashes.

I grabbed my bookbag and made my way outside to my car.

I got in and began my drive to school.

After 15 minutes, I reached my destination.

I walked into school, going toward my locker.

As expected, the girls were surrounding my locker.

I walked up to them and I was instantly engulfed into hugs.

"Why am I getting hugged? " I ask cautiously.

"You didn't hear? " Alexis says to me.

Oh no, no, no, no.

He did tell.

I'm screwed.

"Obviously no one told her, " Cindy says, "Look Mary, we know. "

"Know what? " I ask, on the brink of tears.

They know.

My life is over.

"Don't try to act stupid. We know you and Isac are a thing. Someone saw y'all in the hallway in an 'intimate position'.  You in his arms and what not. " Mandy says to me matter-of-factly.

"Oh.  That. " I say with a breath of relief.

"So you admit it. It's true."

"Well actually-" I say but am cut off by a tap on my shoulder.

Look who it is, the man of the hour. Isac Newly.

"Can I talk to you? " he asks.

Before I can answer, the girls do it for me, "Of course you can! "

I am pushed foward into Isac's arms.

I hear the squeals of excitement as I walk away with Isac.

This is going to be one awkward conversation.
