My best friend

Chapter 4

Amy walked in her eyes still glued to her phone screen which gave me time to quickly push Ryan off me. Unfortunately as we were at the edge of my bed, he fell off the bed with a loud thud.

"Ohh my gosh !! I'm so sorry Ry.. I really didn't mean for that to happen.", I yelped getting off the bed and helping him up.

"It's fine. I might have startled you.", Ryan replied.

"He probably deserved that.", Said Amy not taking her eyes off her phone.

"Fudge off Ames.", Said Ryan giving her a look to which she just gave a fake smile making me chuckle.

"Y'all didn't put the movie yet ?", she said looking up.

"Yup we're watching The Thriller, unless Nicky has a problem with it.", he said looking at me with a glint in his eyes.

"No, I'm cool with it.", I said fidgeting and looking at the floor thinking about what happened a few minutes ago.

After setting eveything up we watched the movie, which consisted of me hiding behind the blanket and hugging a pillow for most of it. Seeing me in that state just made them both laugh. And at that moment I would have actually preferred watching Dora speak bullshit for six hours than watch a horror movie.

And trust me. Dora is worse.

The weekend passed quickly and soon it was the next week and classes began as usual. Monday morning I woke up early and got ready.

I wore a black tank top with a denim jacket and shorts. Combing my hair and tying it into a high ponytail, I wore my glasses and black high top sneakers. As I jogged down the stairs and into the kitchen I snatched my leather bag and a protein bar. Seeing that my mom wasn't around I took my phone and keys and soon left.

I had left pretty early, so I went ahead to school without waiting for Ryan and Amy to come. On reaching, I removed my books from my locker and decided to get in class early as I had nothing to do. I had Calculus as first period so I headed towards class.

I looked around to see most of the seats ahead taken, so I went and sat on one of the last seats at the back. The class had already become full in the last five minutes and that's when I saw him, enter through the door with a group of guys.

Zachary Williams.

Tall, dark blonde hair and the most mesmerising eyes. He was a perfect student and a remarkable athlete. I had never spoken to him but I had heard many rumours about him. He had joined our school two years back and had already become one of the most hottest and popular boys in our grade.

Almost every girl had their eyes on him and every guy envied him. From what I heard he was a guy with a lot of attitude and he was always rude to everyone except his friends. Well rumours say many things, so I choose not to believe any.

I looked back up to notice that they all were heading my way to the empty seats around me. I panicked and thought whether I should get up and move somewhere else but when I saw him sit on the seat to right of me I froze.

They were still talking without noticing me, so I slouched lower into my seat hoping I would get sucked into the ground and away from here...

Luckily our professor entered at that moment and started the lecture. He gave us our notes and informed us that our current seats would be permanent till the end of the term.

How nice of him.

After half an hour he gave us some work and sat down.

"Hey can I have a pen ?", I heard a voice.
