he looks into my eyes and hugs me.

"it's okay." he says forcefully.

I nod.

He puts me back on the bed and messes up my hair.

"Get some sleep, Addy."

And he walks out.

That dang boy.

————————————-

"wake up, you're late!" berlyn Stabs my back with her foot

i groan, "it's only 6 am, God christ Berlyn!" i yell.

"ITS 7:45 COME ON!"

Shoot

I check the time and hurriedly get ready, just as the Bessons car arrives.

"hey ash!" i greet her, smiling.

"hey, addy." she returns the greeting.

i sit down between her and corbyn, with berlyn in the back.

corbyn places his hand on my thigh, smiling lightly at me.

it makes me feel safer, more relaxed.

since i only talk to ashley, and my siblings, and no one else (bc of how fragile and how much of a nervous wreck I am) it will be difficult.

"ew." Berlyn complains, peering over the seat.

i look down, shoving her back in her seat.

ashley looks at his hand and nudges me.

i look up, nervously.

she smirks and motions towards his hand, which I had obliviously put my hand over.

i blush and smile a little, shrugging.

she pats my shoulder and whispers, "I knew it would happen."

——————————————-

i sigh and plop myself down at an empty table, watching the doors.

i had to sit alone at lunch, ashley wasn't in my grade or period and I had no other friends.

i look around, quietly inspecting everybody.

"hey." I feel a light weight on my shoulder.

I jump and turn my head to see corbyn with his chin rested on my shoulder.

i nod hi and he sits next to me.

shoot he's cute

another kid comes and sits down, i think he's in my AP Physics.

I must've been staring because corbyn nudged me.

"adelyne this is daniel, daniel adelyne." (Haha dorbyn)

daniel blushes and looks away.

"hey..." I say.

He nods towards me and whispers something to corbyn.

corbyn shakes his head, "it's fine, daniel."

Daniel smiles at me, "hi." He says.

I return the smile.

Just then Corbyns other friends sit down around us, causing a commotion doing so.

Daniel looked pretty freaked out by the change in environment.

I have to admit, it was frightening.

corbyn didn't see, to be paying much attention to anyone but his other friends, besides having his hand wrapped over mine securely.
