To describe happiness is to diminish it
Henri B. Stendhal
The rest of the day was interesting. It turned out Nathan was with me in Chemistry. Sammie and Tabby were too, and they were apparently shocked to find that me and Nathan seemed pretty ‘tight’ as they didn’t fail to text to me during the tear-worthy lesson. I texted to explain the embarrassing occurrence in English. They, in turn, laughed their heads off, which meant Mr. Adams came to explore. This resulted in my phone being taken away until the end of school.
Dammit.
As soon as the bell rang marking the end of maths (another boring lesson as Adam was ill and he was my only friend in maths,) and the day, chairs scraped back and everyone began talking at the same time. I made my way straight to the reception to collect my phone.
‘There you are, my dear baby,’ Sammie hollered, dancing up to me just as I turned from the office. ‘Got your mobile back?’
‘Yup. I was just about to text you to meet me at here actually.’
‘Well, I thought you’d be here so I came to look for you. Right. Off we go to the buses then m’dear!’ She said, hooking her arms with mine.
‘Hold up, I think Nick said he wanted to meet me at the gates today.’ I paused, sending a quick text to confirm.
‘Sephy, hey,’ Nathan seemed to say out of nowhere. Me and Sammie turned around just in time to see him changing direction towards us. ‘What’s up?’
‘Home is what is up. What’s up with you?’ I asked him. I saw Sammie looked at me from the corner of my eye, a devious smile on her face.
Damn her.
My phone vibrated in my hand; “YUP. STLL MEET ME @ GATE. LUV U. X”
‘Right Sammie dahling, we are meeting Nick at the gate. Lets go-!’
‘Don’t be rude, Sephy. Nathan is talking to you. Sorry Nathan, my little Sephy forgets her manners sometimes. What were you saying?’ I eyed Sammie, annoyed, as Nathan laughed at the two of us.
‘Ah, it’s okay. You are meeting someone... It’s not those losers from English though is it?’ My jaw dropped dramatically.
‘No! I forgot! And now when I walk past them they’ll probably think that...oh God I can’t do this!’ Once again, Nathan laughed, but this time Sammie joined in. ‘Guys! This is serious!’
‘Maybe you shouldn’t have gotten yourself into this then!’ Nathan choked out, his cheeks pink. My jaw dropped again in utterly surprised devastation.
‘But you totally told me to!’ I threw at him.
‘And who says you have to listen to me??’ he asked, a slick grin on his face.
Grrr... I hate him all over again.
‘You guys are so hilarious!’’ Sammie grinned. I eyed her murderously but she only turned to Nathan. ‘Join us Nathan, do you catch a bus by any chance?’
‘I can, but I prefer to walk.’
‘Oh, we have a nature boy on our hands do we…’ I stated drily as Sammie hooked arms with Nathan and began walking out of the huge electronic sliding doors, leaving poor old me behind.
‘Stop being mean, Sephy. Now hurry.’ She ordered jokily. They strode ahead, almost lost in a sea of pupils.
My chest panged; oh dear... Was that jealousy I felt?
