Ch. 3

Allison's POV

While Tracy, Max, and Dylan were outside, I was panicking. How could I explain this to Dylan! I don't want to make a mistake and mess up. It would ruin our relationship.

While I was thinking of what to say to Dylan, I heard noises outside. Oh no! They must be fighting! Why do bad things always happen to me?!

Then the door opened and Dylan came in. He didn't have any bruises or anything, good.

"H-hey." Trying to start a conversation and not get mad, hope this works.

"Hey." He said mad. Well, forget the part about not getting mad.

"First let me explain.."

"Explain what! That your ex-boyfriend came back and he wants you and him to get back together!" Well he summed part of it up.

"Look! It's true that he wants to get back together, but I don't. He left and I had to move on. I met you and I started to like you and here we are right now." Pretty good for a start.

Dylan still didn't looks satisfied, but I knew he would understand. Later on, Tracy came back in and saw that Dylan was still mad.

I wondered where Max was.... What am I thinking! C'mon Allison, pull it together!

We left the nurse's office and it was officially lunch. We went to our table and ate. We really didn't talk much, it was pretty awkward. It got even more awkward when I saw Max, and he saw me and Dylan saw him.

He started to clench his fist and his knuckles turned white. This wasn't going to end well. But even before anyone could make a single movement, someone bumped into me.

"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to bump into you."

"It's okay."

Dylan helped me up and when I got up, the girl who bumped into me was staring at me.

"Sorry." She said. She had blond hair that was in loose curls and was wearing a cute flannel shirt and jeans with flats.

"It's okay, I should've seen where I was going."

"I was just trying to find room 214. Do you know where it is?"

"Yeah, actually that's my next class. Why don't we take you there."

"Thanks, oh.. By the way, my name is Gina."

"Mine is Allison. This is Tracy and Dylan."

"Hi."

"Hi." Dylan and Tracy both said in unison.

With that, we walked away and left Max there, I felt bad. Just leaving the poor guy.... What am I saying!!

We got to the room and class started. To my luck, Max was in this class, yay. Not.

"Okay class. I know it's the first day of school, but I just want to tell you that in 3 weeks we will start a project. But, we are going to get partners today to speed things up."

Well that was a joy. I was hoping that either I was going to be with Dylan or Tracy. I did not want to get paired up with Max, that would be a huge N.O!

"Okay, I will call up your names and partner you up."

Well, I couldn't get paired up with Tracy, cause she got paired up with Josh. A guy who went here way before me.

And just to my luck, Dylan got paired up with Gina. Now I couldn't work on this stupid project with Dylan or Tracy.

My name was called last, and I wanted to yell at this teacher. The person I was paired up with, was the last.

"The last group is, Max and Allison." Damn this teacher.

I looked at Dylan and he had that same face when he first saw Max. Could things possibly get worse.

****

Yes things could get worse. When class was finished, Dylan came up to me and grabbed my arm and yanked me to the janitors closet. This is usually a place where people talk.

"Okay, are you trying to rip my arm off!"

He was pretty mad now, wait to go Mr. Stuart. He had to pair me up with Max.

"Why did you get paired up with him." Seriously! He was really asking me this.

"Like its my fault that I got paired up. He assigned the partners! You think I chose to get paired up with Max!"

"Well no but....."

"But nothing! You're saying that its my damn fault that I got paired up with him! It's not and if you don't like the idea, then deal with it. I'm only gonna work on this stupid project and get a good grade, not flirt!"

Then I left with slamming the door. Okay, not the best idea to scream but c'mon! I was mad, he thinks that it's my fault, I don't care!

When I got home, I went straight to my room and slammed the door. Luckily, mom was picking up Johnny from preschool and dad was at work.

I was pacing all around my room, trying to think of something. Okay, I got: No flirting, just work on the project. Yep, that had to work.

I called Tracy over so we could talk. Something we didn't do in a while.

"Hey."

"Hey." I said depressed.

"So.. How you feeling with the whole partner thing."

"Well... Angry, sad, disappointed." How am I suppose to feel. Why does life have to have so many problems.

"How did Dylan react."

"He reacted like a mad dog. He was mad at me saying that it was my fault that I got paired up with Max! I was so mad at him, that I said what I had to say."

"Woah." Yeah, woah.

"So what are you going to do?"

"What I'm supposed to do, work on this project with Max and not flirt."

That was the plan, and it would have to work. It's technically all on me and Max.

Hope y'all like it. I'm trying to get new things so its taking time but its coming good.
