Miara's POV

We're five weeks into the school year, yes the notes are still carrying and today clubs start! I plan to go to the drama club and choir. Lola wants to go to the drama club as well and art. Lilith also wants to go to drama club and hockey club, she's so good at it! I'm not sure what Reuben is planning to go to though. Anyway, I get ready for school and put on a baggy jumper with black jeans and Nike trainers. I then do my make up which is concealer, winged eyeliner and lip gloss. Again I had to skip breakfast because I was late. I was half running to get the bus, Lola was there already. She was drinking a strawberry milkshake.

"Am I Cheryl yet?" Lola asks, wanting to be her favourite Riverdale character.

"Get a wig and some red lipstick then your good!" I laugh after saying that sentence because of how much we both love Cheryl.

Lola laughs with me and her laughs are just so genuine that they make anyone smile.
"Where's Lili?" I ask, looking around for her just incase she's hiding from us.

"She said she was getting a ride to school," Lola recalls, showing me Lilith's text message.

"Mkay," I answer then talking to Lola about Riverdale.

The bus arrives and Lola finishes her milkshake. As soon as the bus drops us off we both run over to Lilith almost running her over in the process. We chat and giggle as usual. I begin to drift off into my own world and start panicking that I might not get into the school choir. I'm not really sure if I'll be good enough. Lola and Lilith notice me chewing my nails and Lola beside me slaps my hand away.

"Stop Miara!" Lola nags because she's like the mum of the group.

"Sorry just," I get cut off by Lilith shaking her head.

"You're going to get an infection!" They nag (This is actually true).

"Ugh fine," I say, not intending to be sassy.

"DON'T SASS ME CHILD!" Lilith shouts and then they both do a sassy hair flip at the same time! Like are they twins or something?

"Dear god," I laugh, wondering how they are my friends.

I go to my locker and get my books out. Another note flies down from my locker. I unfold it with care and it says:

You're probably wondering who I am this has been going on for a few weeks so if you want to know who I am meet me on Friday the 10th after school at the park

Love your secret admirer xx

It's only the 5th so it's a few days away. I try to go to my class but I can't get this out of my head. They could be a psychopath as far as I know! Anyways, my first class is art with Lilith. I catch up with her and we rush to our classroom. I start painting my drawing of Lilith with my watercolour paints.
It's starting to look okay compared to the rest of my drawings. The bell rings before I know it. The next class is math with Reuben again! I'm terrible at math but Reuben is great at it. I rush over to my seat beside Reuben and sit down.

"Late again M," He says, soon smirking at my stupidness.

"I know!"

"Anyway want to grab a Starbucks later?" He offers, knowing I love a good Starbucks.

"Sure!"
We get started with our maths work then we go to our next classes.

"I have Performing Arts, next what about you?" I ask, walking next to him.

"English," He replies as I drown in his chocolate brown eyes.

"I'm wanting to go to the drama club after school what about you?" I ask him still drowning in those eyes of his.

"Not sure maybe rugby."

"Ooooh sounds cool anyway see you at lunch later right?"

"You betcha" He then goes into his English classroom.

Lunch

It's now lunch and I'm walking to the cafeteria with Lola. We sit at our usual table with Lilith and sometimes Reuben. I get a salad, Lilith gets a panini, Lola gets a cheeseburger and Reuben gets a chip wrap. I barely eat any of my salad but no one notices why would they? We finish up our conversation and go to our next classes. Now it's after school I go to the drama room. There are just me, Lola, Lilith and a few more students already there but then loads of people come in at once. It goes ok I give it my all and that's all you can do. I head outside with the girls and see Reuben waiting for me. I say goodbye to them and walk over to Reuben.

"So how was it?" He asks taking my hand like the gentleman he is.

"It was okay."

"Anyway let's go to Starbucks," He proposes pulling me in the direction of Starbucks.

"Mkay."

"Are you okay Miara? You seem a bit down," He says, looking me dead in the eye.

"I'm okay I promise," I reply, not even meaning to make that reference.
He raises an eyebrow but doesn't question me. We finally get to Starbucks and order drinks. He gets an iced tea and I get a bottle of water.

"You sure you don't want anything else M?" He asks, now looking conserned.

"No, I'm good."

"If you say so," He says, giving up.

We chat till five then we decide to go home. He walks me to the gate of my house and the whole way there we chat. It's really funny I still have a crush on him but he's really easy to just talk to! Though it's hard not to feel bad knowing that someone out there likes you and you like someone else!

I walk into my house and surprise surprise no ones there! I go straight upstairs and go on to my phone. I had no idea what would happen tomorrow.
