Only for you

Chapter 5

" Unhand me Beast!" A treacherous cry woke me up at 6 am in the morning.

I peeped out of my eyes to see Amanda wrestling with her hair. Interested, I sat up on my bed. Amanda was wrestling with her brown hair. How did her hand get stuck in her hair ( which is very short) I have no idea. Needless to say, this situation was funny.

AManda and I strotted towards the main school building. She was wearing a pink floral frock, while I was in my black ripped jeans and a white T shirt. I applied eyeloner to my eyes today making them pop out and be the sole attraction of my face today. My hair was straigtened reaching my waist, giving me a biker girl look. Needless to say, I worked hard to look good today...and that for Alex.

" Ahhh History in the last period. And maths before that. And english too!" Amanda whined as she looked at me, her eyes lightening up suddenly.

" Why don't we skip today?"

My eyes widened on their own accord as she said it. I quicklyshook my head vigorously.

Amanda slumped a little before nodding.

I felt guilty. She had been my friend when no one even wanted to talk to her. But skipping my second day of school would mean a kind of insult to my uncle who worked so hard to put me here. And if that wasn't enough, all my hardwork to look god would have gotten into waste.

We were nearing the parking lot when Amanda said " Why are you dressed so good today?"

I coughed managing to drop water on me as I was drinking. My eyes quickly snapped on her face. She had this I-know-i-am-right-don't-you-lie look on her face and I immediately knew that I was busted.

" Come on Brooke! Tell me!" she whined in a not so attractive manner.

" Am-"

" Brooke! Ama Bear!" I heard Bryan's voice shout which was the only warning before he crashed on to us. I coughed and spluttered water on Bryan's shirt.

"Ewww Brooke seriously?" I rolled my eyes at Bryan. It was his fault to try to squeeze the crap out of me when I was drinking. Yeah that sounded like so bad.

I looked at Bryan to see him staring at me, or more like gaping at me.

" What?"

" Nothing Brooke. It's just that you look good today. Like really good." Bryan said his eyes travelling from my shirt up my neck and then to my eyes as I blushed. See, who would tell that he is gay?

I looked towards Amanda to see if she saw it, but Amanda was already walking away from us and towards the school at an unusual speed.

" What crawled up her ass and died?" I shook my head at bryan's question.

" I think I may have an idea." Bryan didn't bother to ask me as he shrugged his shoulders and took off the other way while I ran after Amanda, pushing past the crowdes.

Amanda had feelings for Bryan. It was kind of irrational seeing that bryan was gay and would never feel the same about her. But who can control the heart?

Amanda had stopped beside a red truck that I knew to be Bryan's car. I cautiously took slow steps towards her. The parking lot was nearly empty as most of the students had gone to their classes. There was only five minutes for the bell to ring.

As I enared Amanda, I could see a stary tear roll down her cheek. Poor Amanda, she didnot deserve it.

She looked up to meet my eyes as she heard me near her.

" Go away Brooke." She said rolling her red puffy eyes.

" Amanda..."

" I said go away! I don't want your pity."
