Nothing ever stays the same

III

I woke up around 10 the next morning. I made my way downstairs, seeing the blanket and pillow neatly folded and placed at one side of the couch. Had he left already? 

Probably, why would he stay.

I could see that Lucas door was still closed, he's probably gonna sleep for a couple more hours. I made my way to the kitchen and found Adam sitting by the table eating breakfast, and my mother sitting across from him making conversation with him.

"Good morning honey! How'd you sleep?"

"Morning. Good, what about you?"

"Both of you" I quickly added.

"I slept very well."

"Yeah, me too." Adam said, giving me a small smile. I sat down with one chair between me and him.

"So I heard Adam drove you home yesterday. That was very nice of him." My mother stated.

"Yeah. Thank you again, I'm so grateful." I smiled before I stuffed my mouth with bacon and scrambled eggs.

"No problem. Couldn't let you go home in the dark."

My mother seemed pleased at his answer, and smiled. So did I.

After breakfast Adam told us he had to go home. I decided to walk him out, and as we stepped outside I closed the door.

"Thanks again for yesterday. Driving us home, talking to me and everything you know." I smiled at him. "And about what almost happened in the living room, I'm sorry about that. I guess I had too much to drink." I fake laughed a bit. I didn't drink too much the night before. But as much as I hoped he would've kissed me, I liked the idea of getting a friend right now. And I don't want the rejection and then don't have him at all. That's why I'm deciding right now that I only want Adam as my friend. Before he walked home we exchanged phone numbers so we could talk.

As on a usual Sunday I just spent my time at home. Preparing for the week, packing my bag for the next day and then just relaxing, probably with a book in my hands. But this Sunday was also spent with Adam on my mind. I felt so embarrassed for thinking that he would've kissed me. I just had to mess things up with someone who could be my new friend. As I was sat on the couch in the living room, Miranda and Lucas joined me. They put on a film and I decided to watch it with them, after a while our parents joined in as well. It was a nice kind of Sunday.

I walked through the doors of school and walked towards my locker. I left my bag and grabbed the things I needed for my first class. Then I walked to find Sarah by her locker. Of course she wasn't alone, that William boy was all over her. I made my way to her anyway, ignoring him. I didn't have anything against him, I guess I was just jealous of how she'd ditched me for him. But as long as she's happy.

"Goodmorning!" I smiled.

"Hey you!" Sarah said, giving me a hug and then her hands went right back to William.

"Ready to go?"

"Yeah! Did you know that William has the same classes as us on Mondays? How great is that!?" she squealed.

"Really? That's nice." I replied, trying to give her the attention she wanted.

Both of our first classes went by quickly, they were holding hands or touching the other ones thigh. Or something else that's touchy. I was happy for her, I really was. I guess I was just jealous for not having it. Maybe because that's what I kind of wanted to happen with Adam. Speaking of Adam, I haven't seen him today. As the class ended, it was finally time for lunch. I was starving, my stomach making noises I didn't think was human. All three of us sat down in the cafeteria talking, actually me too. Still, I wasn't seeing Adam anywhere. I decided that I should check up on him, friends do that. Don't they? I mentally slapped myself and decided to just do it.

Heyy, haven't seen you today. You sick?

A few minutes later my phone vibrated.

Hi, yeah I'm home

Oh are u okay?

Yeah I'm okay. Thanks Felicia! :)

I replied with a smiley face and then put my phone away. After lunch the day went by slowly. Like really slow. I seriously thought time had stopped at some points.
