Chapter 13
A few days later...
Riker POV
"According to the website, it says it's going to start snowing around 8:00 tonight. And it'll keep snowing until about 6:00 tomorrow night," Kelsey said.
"So... Do you think they'll cancel school?" I asked.
"For sure."
"So it's like an early weekend. If we get tomorrow off, then it's a 3 day weekend!"
Kelsey laughed.
"What?"
"Cute."
I rolled my eyes and blushed. But I'm falling for her. Really hard. Ever since that night where I talked to Rocky and he asked if I liked her, I started realizing how much I really do like her.
"So... Since it's pretty much certain we'll have a snow day tomorrow... Want to sleepover tonight?" Kelsey asked.
I nodded, smiling.
"Great."
"Sometimes I wish lunch was our last class of the day. So it could end on a good note," I mumbled.
"Is your last class with Wyatt?"
I nodded.
"Does he still bully you?"
"No... But yesterday we had a substitute teacher and she barely paid attention to us. And Wyatt and some of his friends threw stuff at me."
"Riker, why didn't you tell me?"
"Because it's no big deal. They just took paper from their notebooks, crumpled it up, and threw it at me. It was fine, ok?"
Kelsey sighed.
"If he does anything else, tell me, ok?"
"Ok... I will..."
I looked over at Wyatt's table. I just wish he didn't know I existed.
"Meet me at my locker after class ok?"
"Like always."
The bell rang, so we went to class.
Later...
Riker POV
Kelsey offered to walk home with me so I could pack, and then walk to her house.
When we got to my house, I had to ask mom first if I could stay the night, but I was positive she would say yes. I found her in the kitchen.
"Mom?"
"What, honey? Who's your friend?"
"This is Kelsey. Can I stay over her house tonight? It's supposed to snow, and we're probably not going to have school tomorrow."
"Sure, honey."
"Thanks, mom."
I took Kelsey's hand and brought her to my bedroom.
"Pack warm clothes. You're always cold," Kelsey said, sitting on my bed.
"How did you know which bed was mine?" I asked.
"Well... There's blue sheets on it. You always wear blue."
"Oh..."
"I have something to give you when we get to my house."
"Like a present?"
"Yup."
"Why?"
"Because you're awesome."
