i started walking to my locker. as i was putting my bag in it, i heard familiar voices coming towards me. they were coming from my two best friends Maddie and Emma.
"hey, Ms. Marais!" they teased.
"oh my gosh, shut up you two! he doesn't even know i like him yet." i laughed.
"well he will soon, right?" Emma asked.
"maybe."
we went to Mrs. Davis's class to start the day with math. we were learning algebra, which i suck at. i was trying to pay attention when Maddie tapped me on my shoulder.
"what?" i whispered.
she pointed to the door.
Jonah was walking past when he saw me. he waved and i just looked away because Mrs. Davis notices everything. but luckily, she was yelling at another student because he kept dropping stuff off of his desk.
"he's literally just walking past it's no big deal." i said to Maddie.
"okay sorry." she laughed.
i continued paying attention to the teacher.
the next class was history, which i had with Emma and Jonah.
"okay, class. as you all know there's a pop quiz today. hopefully you all reviewed some things for it, if not, you won't be getting grades for it but you still should've studied a bit." Mr. Smith said.
i smirked at Jonah, since i was right about us not getting grades for this.
Mr. Smith handed the quizzes out and i started mine, even though i didn't exactly know everything. i was trying to figure out an answer to a question but Jonah just gave me it.
"hey! we're gonna get in trouble. answer your own questions." i whispered to him, laughing.
Emma was looking at us and when Jonah turned back to his desk she made a heart with her hands. i reached my hand out to hit her but she quickly turned back to her quiz and so did i.
after everyone was done, Mr. Smith collected our quizzes. Emma turned around to ask me how it was and i finally had the chance, i hit her arm and we both started laughing.
"hey girls whats so funny?" Jonah asked.
"oh, Sadie hit me because i was---"
"singing this annoying song. Emma was singing a song i hate."
"wow that's so funny." he said sarcastically.
"if only he knew." Emma whispered to me.
right when i was about to say something, the lunch bell rang. i was relieved. right as i was walking out of history class, i bumped into Jack Avery, who was one of Jonah's best friends. my history book fell out of my hands and a little piece of paper slipped out.
"oh, sorry Sadie. i'll get that for you." he said.
he bent down to pick up my book, and he got the paper too.
he looked at it, reading it out. "Sadie Marais."
i panicked and grabbed it from him.
"what the, I DIDN'T WRITE THIS!"
"who did then?" Jack said, laughing.
just then i got an idea of who might've done it.
"okay please don't tell Jonah. i want to tell him myself, and i didn't write this by the way. Maddie and Emma are always teasing me about this." i said to Jack.
"yeah, i won't tell him. don't worry."
i thanked him and ran out of the class.
"EMMA!"
"w-what happened?" she asked, Maddie was beside her.
i held the piece of paper up.
"oh! that, right. yeah, i wrote it." she admitted, scratching her hair.
"YOU PUT IT IN MY BOOK! which fell onto the floor, where Jack Avery saw it! but i told him not to tell Jonah."
"crap, sorry."
unexpectedly, i just laughed, but i was still a little mad at her.
"at least it wasn't Jonah, though." i realized.
"damn right." Maddie said.
i put my history book in my locker and got my lunch out.
