Just Friends

Haley's P.O.V

Today is our first day of senior year and this year I plan to join a group and drag Megan along with me which will without a doubt be very hard. I hate how stubborn she is. The only part of today that makes me nervous is knowing my sister will be home today from her boarding school. I don't want her to meet Megan but I know I can't really do anything about it. I could try to avoid it but it would be too much trouble and frankly not worth it. I just can't help but think Jane will end up stealing Megan from me. Jane is more.... exciting than me. She parties and dresses to top fashion and the big hitter, she's a lesbian. Just like Megan. Maybe they'll bond over their love for girls and I'll be left in the dust. "You okay?" Megan asks suddenly. "Yeah. Why wouldn't I be? It's the first day of senior year!" I smile. She focuses on me and crosses her arms. After a few very awkward minutes, I cave. "Okay, fine! I'm worried you're going to run off into the sunset with Jane and leave me behind in a sink whole well you learn all about each other and make BFF bracelets." I say quickly with a huff. Megan laughs and shakes her head. We start walking again and she finally speaks up. "It wouldn't be bracelets. It would be anklets." she says in a serious tone. I slap her lightly on the shoulder and role my eye. And here it is. The end of the hall. I have to go one way and she has to go the other way. "I really hate that we don't have classes together." I tell her. She shrugs her shoulders and pulls me into a hug. "You won't die Hales. You have plenty of other friends in your classes. You are a popular girl around here after all." she teases. Before I can say anything the bell rings. "I'll see you later. I should at least try to make it to class before I'm officially the most hated student that has ever attended this amazing school." she says quickly and runs off. I was going to tell her I wasn't worried about not having classes with her for  my sake because yes, I have other friends. It's her I'm worried about. I'm her best friend, her only friend really. Maybe her and Jane becoming friends wouldn't be such a bad thing. Megan isn't one to be easily persuaded. She could definitely handle her own but just the thought of the Jane I know... it's more than just unsettling. I really hope Jane has changed for the better.
