This Boy And The Depression That Comes With It

Chapter Fourteen

The rest of the day went by pretty boringly.

People kept giving me weird looks, because I've been participating in my school work, raising my hand to ask questions and answer questions, and I've had a smile plastered on my face since this morning.

What? Am I not allowed to be happy?

It's eighth period, and there are about five minutes left of the school day.

I have speech class this period, and we aren't working on any speeches yet, so we're basically just sitting around, talking.

I hate this class. It's one of the higher grade classes. It's full of Juniors and Seniors, and like five Sophomores. I am the only Freshman, and it's weird. I don't like getting up, in front of this class, to do my speeches, because everybody in here is superior to me, and I feel as though they might make fun of me, if I mess up. That explains why I'm failing..

I look around, to make sure the teacher isn't looking, and I take out my phone.

Searching through my contacts, I land on Dakota. I thought I deleted his number, after I found out about the other girls, but I guess not.

Mine as well text him.

"Hey. Whatcha up to cutie?" Sent.

Ten seconds later, my phone vibrates and it's a response from him.

"Hey gorgeous! Meet me by the bus loop, after the bell rings?"

Oh? What does he have planned?

"Alright. :)", I send, and put my phone in my back pocket.

*BEEEEP* The intercom comes on, and one of the ladies in my office starts babbling.

"Hello students. This is your afternoon announcements and blah blah blah..." I stopped listening. Nobody ever pays attention to those.

The bell rings and dart out of that classroom, as fast as I can, and head straight for the bus loop.

When I get there, I hear loud screeching, so I turn around, and I see Dakota running straight for me, screaming my name.

"MARISSAAAAAAAAA!", He screams and attacks me in one of his famous bear hugs. He hugs so tightly, it's adorable. I love his hugs.

"Hey. Why is it you wanted me to meet you here?"

"I just wanted to see you, before I go home. It sucks that I have to go the rest of the day without seeing your beautiful face. I have to wait until morning.." Aww. He is so cute! "I want to be able to kiss those lips some more.", He says, looking at my lips. "I want to be able to hold you in my arms forever, and fall asleep at night, with you right next to me.", He says as he wraps his arms around me.

The buses start up, and he looks at me, "But all that will have to wait." He kisses my forehead, and starts walking to his bus.

When he gets to the door, he turns around, blows me a kiss, and says "Goodbye my angel! Until tomorrow."

I wave to him, and with that, the doors close, and the bus starts to pull away.
