Driving to school the next day was needless to say awkward. Me, Joey and Logan stuck together in a small place for full twenty minutes. I prayed to god Joey doesn't say anything stupid, and luckily he kept his mouth shut. I guess him and Logan are great again 'cause they immediately started talking about football and stuff. When we parked in front of school I said goodbye to the guys and went over to Abby and Austin.
''How did your study date go?'' Austin asked as soon as I sat down.
''Study-ish...'' I replied, ''how else would it go?''
''You know what I'm asking about.''
''I do, and there's nothing to answer'' I lied. Maybe I'll tell them if it happens again, but not yet, wait what am I saying? It won't happen again so there's no need to mention this. ''What happened at that party was a one time mistake. And nothing happened even then. Okay?''
''If you say so...''
''So how's the studying going anyway?'' Abby asked. ''Do you think it'll last long?''
''Maybe just a few more times, we already did like half of it so I'll be out of it soon.''
After a few more minutes of random chat we went to our first class, English. Abby didn't have that class with us so Austin and I proceeded alone though he ditched me to go to the bathroom. I went to my locker to get my stuff and a surprise greeted me.
''Hello again Izzy'' Joey smiled appearing next to me out of nowhere.
''Hello...'' I replied giving him a curious look.
''So... when are we gonna finish what we started?''
''We aren't...''
''Really? 'Cause you didn't think like that yesterday'' he smiled.
''Well yesterday I didn't have time to think, but last night I did, and it isn't going to happened again'' I replied firmly.
''We'll see about that'' he winked and walked away.
With a confused and worried mind I proceeded to English where I spent the whole class trying to get him and his words out of my head. The rest of the day went pretty well, everything normal as usual. My last class was American history which I also had only with Austin, but since we didn't have the previous class together I walked to the classroom alone and sat down at our usual seat. As I was getting my books out Austin joined me but I didn't bother to look up right away.
''Changed your mind yet?'' a voice made me look up. Joey.
''No. And what are you doing here?''
''We have this class together.''
''I mean what are you doing sitting next to me?'' I raised my eyebrows.
''Changing your mind'' he replied. Right then Austin walked in and gave me a 'what the hell' look and I just shrugged my shoulders.
The class started. We didn't speak more, I tried to concentrate on the lesson but it wasn't going well. Still I tried my best, took notes and everything, just to make sure he doesn't start talking to me again. And he didn't. But he did something else. Sometime during class he suddenly, and without any warning, did the same thing he did at dinner the other night. Placed his hand on my thigh.
''Joey!'' I snapped at him but with a whisper. He didn't say anything back, just smirked and squeezed it even tighter. ''Stop it'' I pushed his hand away, but only a few second later he placed it back.
''Joey move your hand. Now.''
Again nothing. He just kept going higher slowly moving it under my skirt. I moved it again, and again, he put it back.
