Fire And Ice

02. Who's She?

     ~ Friday ~ 1:06PM ~ 

     Today is Friday, AKA the day Henry asked to hang out with me. EEK! Not only is he my crush but the fact that he talked to me, is shocking. I slammed my locker shut and turned to walk to class but then I heard, "Ow! Again!" I turned the other way to see Henry holding his hand in his other hand. 

     Did I seriously slam my locker on his fingers again!?

     "Oh I'm sorry! I didn't know you were there! Again..." I say awkwardly. "It's okay I should've said something instead of 'creepily' just standing there." He joked. "Anyway, what's up?" I ask shoving my phone into my back pocket. "I wanted to make sure you're still up to hang out tonight?" He asks me. "Yup! Lookin' forward to it." I add. Jeez that made me sound desperate. "LOOKIN' FORWARD TO IT BLAH BLAH BLAH!"

     The bell rings and the doors for class close. "Dang it." I mutter to myself.

     "Henry Hart and Amelia Coleman, the principal would like to see you. I repeat, Henry Hart and Amelia Coleman, to the office please. Thank you." The guy over the PA says.

     "I guess we can hang out after detention." I tell him as I start walking to the office with him. He laughs. "If we even get detention." He tells me. I tilt my head to the side, confused. "What do you me--" I start,but unfortunately I was cut off by the principal opening her door. We walk in and she points to some chairs. "Sit." She demands. That we did.

     "You two are late for class! All the doors shut before you moved from Miss Coleman's locker." The principal told us. I looked down. "Henry Hart! You've never had dentention before! Hmm..." I look back up to see her looking Henry up and down. "FINE. You and your girlfriend can get out of detention today." I blush at the fact that she just called me his girlfriend. "But next time..." She says and then slams her stamp on a blank piece of paper. It reads, 'Detention'. I nod and stand up. Henry walks out and I follow.

     "Wow. How'd you get us out of that!? You didn't even say anything!" I add. "That's one of the perks of being  good student and never getting detention." He tells me. I stopped and grabbed his wrist. Then said, "You never, got detention? Like... EVER?!" He shakes his head and starts walking. Forgetting that I am holding onto his wrist, I get pulled forward into math.

     We open the door and the teacher doesn't notice us come in. I quietly hang my bag up and sit down. I slump forward in my seat and lay my head on my desk. I'm not going to sleep but, I just want to rest my eyes until the teacher says something. It's boring watching him write.

     "RIIING!" The bell rings and I have to be hearing things because class just started. I hear feet shuffling and then I feel a tap on the shoulder. I shoot up and look next to me to see who it was, it was Henry. "I was just resting my eyes for a minute." I tell him, but then look around and see the room is empty, the board is clear, and Henry's paper is full of notes. I bury my face in my hands then rub my eyes.

     "You fell asleep "Resting your eyes."" He put air quotes around resting your eyes. "Very funny Hart." I tell him and we walk out of class.

~ Time skip to after school ~

     I  put unneeded books in my locker and before I slam it, I check to make sure nobody's hand is there. Then I slam it shut. I am super excited to hang out with Henry. Then that's when it hit me.

     What am I going to wear? Not too much! Just casual! I wish I had parents who cared to help me with this! Wait... I know exactly what to wear!
