Chapter 14: Feb 15
I was really tired this morning, since I wasn't able to sleep much. I had such an adrenaline rush last night, it was impossible to close my eyes. So much was running through my head after I came home.
School ran as normal, I was just tired as all hell, I'm pretty sure most of you know that feeling. Throughout lunch, Sheldon had gone off to talk to Shannon and Kat, Adele and Kasey had to stay in class for an English presentation, so I walked around with Livia.
"So, what happened last night?" She asked, winking.
I blushed, and bit my lip. "What, when you were freaking out?" I giggled. Livia put her head on my shoulder, "please?" She begged me.
I smiled. "Well, of course we had our first kiss... Stereotypical, I know," I trailed off.
She had the biggest grin on her face, and hugged me. "YASSS!" She squealed. "Tell me about it, please?"
"Really? I'm sure you saw most of it, but..." I laughed. "Fine. Follow me, Liv."

We found a corner of the school behind the Chapel, where no one else was going to listen in on us. Hopefully.
"Ok, so, we're just sitting there, admiring the stars and shit, you know. Nothing even happened for the longest time, but after a bit, I just... I went for it. It was amazing, I don't know how to describe it. Then he told me he loves me, and we kissed again. I just..." I sighed. I was all giddy just thinking about it.
Livia grinned from ear to ear. Even though we were alone, I whispered, "Let me just say, he's a great kisser."
"You've literally never kissed anyone else before," she laughed.
"How would you know?" I stuck my tongue out at her. She gave me a suggestive look in return.
I got a text on my phone, from Sheldon.
Sheldon: Meet me at my locker bay in 5 ;)
Alright then.
"Sheldon is telling me to meet him at his locker bay. I'm gonna go, do you mind?" I asked.
"Not at all, I'm going to go find Miles anyway."
I went to Sheldon's locker to find him leaning against the wall.
"Hey, dude."
"Hey, Micky," he smiled at me, the sweetest smile I've ever known, and I've known it for 14 years. I was just oblivious to what it really meant to me. It was a pretty big locker bay, so we went to one corner where it wouldn't be completely obvious we'd be there.
His hands ran through my hair. I ran my hands through his, it was so soft, the black and red streaks falling through my fingers.
He kissed my forehead. I had to stand on my toes to kiss him back. I held his face and we locked lips once again, like we had the night before. This time it was him who moaned, as I subtly bit his lip. He licked mine, and I did the same, resulting in both of us pulling apart to breathe.
I laughed, and so did Sheldon. I pulled him into a hug, and laid my head on his chest, he played with my hair. "Eres el amor de mi vida. Te amo. Quiero estar contigo para siempre." He whispered.
"I can barely understand you, Shel," I whispered back.
"You are the love of my life. I love you. I want to be with you forever."
"I love you too," He kissed my forehead, "you might have to teach me some Spanish later."
"I probably do," He smiled at me. "Uh, we should get going, the bells going to ring soon. What class have you got?" Sheldon asked.
"RE, Mr Kaminski has us making posters about the prophets and shit. Wait, you're in my RE class, how the hell did you forget?" I laughed. We walked out of the locker bay. I think we've become a thing in the school. Livia tells me that people even made a ship name for us; "Shechaela," apparently.
RE was pretty boring, but I got through it. At least I got to draw and use my pencils and stuff. I don't take art, surprisingly, so I rarely get a chance to do a fair bit of drawing.
Mr Kaminski approached me to talk about what happened last week.
"Hey, Michaela, how're you feeling? Everything alright after Tuesday?"
"Yeah, thanks. Everything's a lot better besides this broken rib Bonnie gave me," I chuckled.
"Well, that's unfortunate... Love your poster by the way, it's very well done. I hope you get better."
"Thanks, sir."
The bus ride home with Shannon was boring, I didn't want to tell him what I did with Sheldon last night, nor at lunch, so I stayed quiet, playing with my phone. But, I did message Livia about it. I mean, of course I would.
Michaela: Guess what I did with Sheldon :D
Livia: Did you make out with him?
Michaela: Maayybee
Livia: Lucky bitch. But I may or may not have done the same with Kat after you left lol
Michaela: lol
When we got home, I went straight to my room to talk to Sheldon.
Michaela: Hi Shel
Sheldon: Hey Micky
Michaela: Whatcha up to
Sheldon: Walking home, how bout you?
Michaela: Just got home, so I'm netflixing and texting you x
Michaela: Is that even a word
Sheldon: I don't even know lol but I get it
Michaela: You know what's crazy
Michaela: It's been two weeks and we've been on three dates already
Sheldon: lol that just proves how much free time we have
Michaela: I'm surprised that I'm still keeping up with school tbh, my life has been a wreck after Bonnie broke my fucking ribs :/
Mum came up to my bedroom, "Honey, you have a letter."
Michaela: Hang on, my mum just gave me something.
Sheldon: Same. Just arrived home. Is it a court notice?
Michaela: Yeah, mine says something about Bonnie
Sheldon: Mine too, something about attending her court hearing?
Michaela: Apparently???
I read through it once again

Bruce DAVIS
Associate Judge
Honestly, I'm not that surprised, I just wonder how many other people will be there. My train of thought was interrupted when Livia texted me.
Livia: Did you get the letter as well? From the court?
Michaela: I did. I was just talking to Sheldon about it.
Livia: I CAN'T HANDLE YOU TWO I'M DEAD UGH YOU'RE SO CUTE
Michaela: Ahahaha thanks Liv x
Shannon also asked me about it.
It seems everyone but my parents were coming, strangely enough.
