Worst of Me

Chapter 10

SKYLER JOHANSSON’S POV

It was Monday again. I reluctantly got up,dreading to go and seeing her again. Maybe I can fake being sick.

“Sky,hurry up!” my mom yelled from the kitchen. She’s too smart for that. Why why why WHY did I have to do that? I didn’t want to go to school where I had three periods with her. Kill me. I quickly got ready for school and walked to the kitchen.

“Hey, mom.” I said.

“Good morning, pumpkin,” she said, laying my plate down in front of me. I love Mom’s food.

“Hey mom.” I said,sitting down. It’s as if she could read my mind. “What’s wrong,honey?” She asked.

“I..did something that upset my friend,  and I think she is really mad at me. I don’t want to go to school and face her.” I said. My mom understood what I did and nodded.

“Ay, Skyler. You’ll have to face her sooner or later.” She said. “You can’t always run from your problems.” I sighed and nodded in agreement.

“I’m going to make things straight with her.” I said,determined. I quickly finished my breakfast and hugged my mom before saying goodbye and running to the bus.

Jeez this is awkward. I was sitting next to Rose, it was third period and I have art with Rose.

“Ya like jazz?” I asked, hoping to make some sort of conversation.

“That’s a dead meme.” She responded,obviously not want to talk to me. I stayed silent and uncomfortably shifted in my chair.

“Rose I’m s-" She quickly planted a firm kiss on my lips, interrupting my sentence.

“I want to be your girlfriend.” I blurt when she pulled away. Oh wait did I say that out loud?

Her jaw dropped immediately. “I..um..I..” she struggled to speak.

“I-It’s fine. I didn’t mean to say that out lo-” she interrupted me with another kiss, then said, “Yes. I would love to be your girlfriend.”

YES, I MADE THINGS STRAIGHT WITH HER.. WELL NOT “STRAIGHT" I MADE THEM MORE GAY BUT Y’ALL READERS KNOW WHAT I MEAN, RIGHT? *WINK*

“Ooo I can’t wait to tell the others!” She said,giddy with excitement. The bell rang and we both got up,hand-in-hand, as we walked to the cafeteria together.  

I noticed our table only consisted of Alex,Donny,and Summer. Where are the other two lovebirds? We sat down next to each other.

“What is up with y’alls hands?” Summer pointed out at us holding hands. “Oh wait, is it the..paintball day thing?”

“Well, we decided to be more than friends.” I said.

“So you’re dating?” Summer said. “I’m so sorry for your loss.

“Oh whatever, Summer.” I said, brushing off her comment and talking to Skyler a majority of the time.

“So I wanted to ask y’all,” Summer started. I turned my attention on her.

“Yeah?” I said.

“If you guys wanted to do a repeat of  what we did at Eury’s house? Truth or Dare, except this time at my place and with Skyler too this time?” Summer asked. “My parents are away on a..thing and I managed to bribe the person who’s supposed to watch us into not being there and not telling anyone.”
