It was another day at school. I just arrived at school and headed towards the smoker's room. I was going to head inside when I saw through the long window on the door that Tyler and Landon were arguing.

I opened the door and they stopped and looked up at me. They both smiled at me. I was really confused. Why were they arguing?

"What were you two arguing about?" I asked.

"Nothing, Tyler here has something to tell you," Landon said.

"He does?" I asked.

"Yes, he does, I'll leave him to it," Landon said.

Landon left the room and glared at Tyler before he went. I sat down opposite Tyler so we were facing each other. I put my bag near me. I looked up at him and I could tell he looked slightly nervous. I had no idea what he wanted to tell me.

"What do you need to tell me?" I asked.

"Well... you know... the school ball is soon," he said.

"I thought you weren't going," I said.

"I wasn't but I want to know..." he said.

"Yeah?" I asked.

"Do you want to maybe come with me?" He asked.

"Really?" I exclaimed.

"Yeah," He said.

I got up and hugged him tightly.

"I'd love to go with you," I said.

He smiled at me and hugged me back.

"Anyways Ariana says she misses you and she wants all of us to go to a theme park sometimes," He said.

"I'd love to go but it's not really good for me to be going on rides," I said.

"Yeah, I told her that so we settled on going to the cinemas instead," he said.

"Okay, that would be cool," I said.

The bell rang and we now had a Science mock exam. We headed to the hall and sat down. The papers were given out and I answered the questions. The exam was a bit hard but I managed to answer all the questions which is good.

After an hour and a half, we gave in our papers and went to eat lunch. I sat with Landon, Dean, Kylie and Tyler at our usual place. I pulled out a tub of Nutella that I bought this morning from the shops. And, I pulled out the pack of fresh strawberries that I bought from the canteen.

Because the Nutella was in my bag all day, it had melted. I dipped a strawberry in Nutella and ate it. It was delicious. I saw that Kylie was eating a chicken salad.

"That looks so unhealthy," Tyler said to me.

"It's not healthy and it's not unhealthy either, it's neutral food," I said.

"How does that work out?" He asked.

"Strawberries are healthy and Nutella is unhealthy so it equals each other out," I said.

"That really does makes sense," he said sarcastically.

"Shut up," I said.

He grabbed a strawberry and dipped it in the Nutella and ate it. I frowned at him.

"That's delicious," he said, licking his lips.

"You should try it with bananas, that's even better," Landon said.

"Stop giving him ideas Landon," I said.

They both bursted out laughing.

"So has Tyler asked you yet?" Landon said.

"I'm going with him to the school dance," I said.

"Yay!" Kylie squealed.

"You've finally asked her," Dean said.

We continued eating lunch.

"We're all so handsome and good looking aren't we?" Landon said.

I rolled my eyes.

"You love yourself way too much," Tyler said.

"Let's all take a picture," Landon.

He grabbed his phone out and positioned it so we were all in the photo. We all smiled and he took the picture and then put his phone away.

"Alexa, how's the radiotherapy going?" Dean asked.

"Oh, they've stopped it and I'm just waiting for the results to see if it's been effective," I said.

"I'm sure it will work," he said.

"Thanks," I said, as I smiled at him.

We all finished lunch and went to the hall as we had our final mock exam today. After our mock finished, I headed home with Landon. He insisted he dropped me off home.

After a couple minutes of walking, we heard giggling and turned around to see Tina with Luna. This time there was another girl with her. Landon looked furious.

"You stupid bitch," he said, walking to her.

"What do you want?" She asked.

"You dare fucking touch Alexa again, I swear to god I will make you pay," he said.

"Get lost," she said.

I could tell that Landon was probably going to hit her but I held his arm firmly and he kept back. Tina seemed to have got scared as she walked away with her friends.

"Yeah, walk away then, absolute cunts," he said.

He hugged me and we continued walking home in a comfortable silent. When we came to my house, he said bye to me and I went inside. I went to the kitchen and everyone was sat eating dinner.

"Tyler's asked me to go to the school dance with him," I said.

"That's nice of him," Mum said.

"What are you going to wear?" Lilly asked.

"I have no idea, I'll go shopping tomorrow," I said.

"I'll come with you," Lilly said.

"Okay,"

I feel really happy and elated. Today has been really good. I can't believe Tyler's asked me to go with him. I never thought that he'd ask me to go with him. I can't wait till the dance.
