My Adventure Is A Boy Named Kota.

Chapter 32 - Limits and an Ocean less world.

"So you still don't have a dress for winter formal? Aren't girls usually overly organised for these dances?" Ben asks me from across the table Friday morning.

"I've just been really busy with other things recently. All my time has been taken up by school work."

"And Kota." Willow snickers next to me before I elbow her.

"Besides, I have all of next week to find a dress. Willow and I are going to go shopping." I reply

"Ooh can I come?" Leif asks.

"You want to come dress shopping?" Willow asks with disbelief.

"Chill, I'm not buying a dress, wouldn't want to outshine you Willow." He winks at her causing her to scoff. "I need to pick up a tie and a few other things."

"Sure." I reply slurping on my orange juice just as the bell rings for next class.

"What have you got now?" Kota asks turning to me.

"Umm, Free period."

"Aww lucky. I'll see you after in English?"

"Save me a seat." I smile at him as he leans down and pecks me on the lips.

As everyone files their way out of the cafeteria, I make my way to the library where I spend most of my free periods listening to music and studying.

Knowing my luck however, the only available table is next to some of Bens football team who all cease their laughter as I walk past them.

Plugging in my earphones and drowning out there chatters with Sum 41, I begin my study trying desperately to avoid their stares.

Unfortunately, I'm not 5 minutes into my English literature before I am interrupted with a tapping on my book.

Looking up and pausing my music, I see none other than Peter sitting in front of me.

"What do you want?" I not so politely ask him, moving my gaze back down to my book. "Sorry I don't have any drinks that you can spike."

"Look, Finn I'm really sorry about that night, I was completely smashed and I had no idea what I was doing."

"Whatever Peter, I really need to study, so if you don't mind."

"Actually I wanted to ask you something." He smiles at me. Much like a lion would a gazelle, I note.

"What is it?" I reply, already done with the conversation.

"I was wondering if you wanted to go to the Winter Formal with me?"

"You're joking right?" I scoff looking for any sign that he was messing with me.

"No not at all, I really like you and I think we would have a lot of fun."

"You do know I'm dating Kota right?"

"Has he even asked you yet?"

"Well no, not technically but that doesn't-"

"See! And how long do you honestly see you guys dating for?" He asks instantly infuriating me.

"Sorry, but what on earth makes you think I would ever want to go on a date with you."

"Kota won't even give a shit I promise, besides he only started dating you to get you off limits." He replies, crossing his arms over his chest and leaning back in his seat.

"Excuse me?" I ask presuming I heard wrong.

"You didn't know?"

"I know that Ben had Willow off limits to the football team." I reply nervously, making him smile viciously.
