Dear, My Thereafter

Chapter 15 | The thing I said I wouldn't do ( part 2 )

James POV

" Should I ?"

" James Ashton don't want to seems like he is imposing, maybe I should allow her to have her space. Yesterday didn't turn out good on her side. What you think Mark?"

I turned glaring at the jerk I call my friend.

" Hey dude, a little help here."

" Oh uhh........ I don't know man I've never been in any situation like this before."

" Oh so thats how you help a friend in need? Thanks much man." I commented slapping him in the head.

" You're most welcome."

" Could you please shut up" snapping at him.

" Okay look maybe you should give her some space. I mean yesterday was probably a coincidence, maybe she still hates you, knowing girls they're very funnily picky and can get weird sometimes."

And for once he was making sense. He's probably right, she could've only told me those things because I was the only one there. Pretty sure if it was someone else she would've done the same thing.

Plus she has her friend so she opening up to me yesterday really doesn't makes me any special.

But while picking up our stuffs from the bed in my room, walking down the stairs to the view of my mom sitting on the huge white couch inside the living room, placing a kiss on her forehead and heading out the door to my car I could've felt something opposing to what my dear friend Mark said. I just knew I wasn't going to agree with him.

A ten minutes drive turned into a fifteen almost twenty minutes drive because I was confused. Why do girls have to be so complex. F it I'm going to send this text whether or not.

Parking the car inside the school's parking lot with my mind made up but my nerves yelling the F at me.

" Uhh shit " I pounded.

" Yow what's wrong man ?" Mark asked.

" I forgot my calculator for Maths."

" Thats cool, we can share mine."

" No thats just gonna slow things down, I'll go back and get it, won't take long. Catch up with you man, just cover for me."

" Oh okay hurry back cause you know how Miss. Birdie gets when your late."

But I didn't bother to answer, I have to send this message right now before my weak self can't do it anymore. Popping out my phone the minute I landed on the road, typing the message and sending it in full speed hoping she'd answer and I wouldn't have to spend the day alone. Lucky thing I always have a pair of clothes in my car, the uniform just won't work.

Tash POV

" Just don't make it seems awkward, just remember to be normal" I motivated my reflection in the mirror for the tenth time but contradicting myself in the head after.

Like....." How am I suppose to do that after what happened yesterday."

But I forcefully pushed myself out the room knowing I have to go along with this either way.

" Good morning Aunt, I'm going to head out now" I tried lying.

" Good morning honey, I was starting to wonder if you weren't planning on going to school today."
