AubreeNext day at school was weird . Well it was weird to me . Mackenzie stayed with Hunter throughout today. I was disturbed . But then I thought
Why am I feeling this way ? I don't own him .
After repeating that in my head for the umpteenth time , I finally relaxed and focused on school .
I guess that helped . I walked into the cafeteria and saw Mackenzie in our seat , in between Max and Hunter . Ashley next to Max and me at the edge .
I hate the edge . I lost my appetite and just sat there playing with my fingers. I felt a stare on me .
Using a technique my mom taught me , I yawned. Hunter yawned back .
Well , you see if you look at someone yawning , you will also yawn.
Turns out he was the one looking at me .
"Aubree ? You aren't eating ?" He asked .
"No , not hungry."
"Why are you fidgety?"
"I hate sitting at the edge ."
He looked at our arrangement and asked Mackenzie to make space for me .
She actually shifted . Guess she isn't a threat.
Wait where did that come from?
He patted a space for me to sit . I walked over and sat down feeling much more better . Then I gave Ashley an apologetic smile . She understood.
Hunter leaned in and whispered , "Don't worry you won't sit on the edge again , you'll seat right next to me ." His breath fanned my pinna . He smiled and sat up straight . I hid my face in my hair as I put my head on the table . The chatter of our cafeteria filled my ears as I fell into a light deep sleep . I jerked up as I heard the bell ring . I felt a pat on my back . It was Mackenzie . I smiled at her as I stood up .
We all left the cafeteria. I went to the toilet to wash my face . I did that and went to my next class , earning a dirty look from my teacher . I apologized and went to take my seat ready for another boring hour of my life that I can never get back .
After a hour which consisted of me yawning, sighing , hair scratching and many more , they finally rang the bell . I scrambled out of the class . I looked through the hallway looking for Ashley . But I found a certain pair of eyes on me . Feeling flushed , I looked away . I looked in the opposite direction , then back at where he stood against his locker . But he wasn't there .
Am I imagining all this things ? Someone help me !
I scurried off to my next class
End of the day .
I walked to the parking lot and called Ashley's phone . She wasn't picking up .
"Want a ride ?" Someone in particular whispered in my ear . He never moved away so I did , my hair , slapping him in the process . "Oh my God ! I'm so sorry ."
"No worries . So do you want a ride ?"
"No thanks , I'm waiting for Ashley ."
"I can drive you both ."
"Hunter , go home , stop being so nice ."
"How can I not be nice to a girl like you? "He said with a smile on his face .
A girl like me ?
"I'll text you when I get home ." Where did that come from ?
"But I don't have your number or email."
"Yes , sorry ." I said as I typed my number into his phone . Then he typed his into mine .
"Bye ." I said walking away from him .
I called Ashley one more time . She picked up on the second ring .
"Aubs what's up. Where are you?"
"At school , waiting my ass out for you ."
"What the hell are you doing at school ?"
"I thought we were going together ." I mumbled , kicking a stone .
"Oh, I'm so sorry Aubree . I forgot to tell you . My mom picked me up to go somewhere with her . I'm so sorry ."
"Don't worry , I'll just go home then."
I cut the call . I started my little walk back home .
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*|*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I land on my bed with an 'oof ' . I was exhausted. I was staring at my phone laying on my drawer . I picked it up and opened a chat with Hunter .
Me : I'm home now . Happy?
He didn't reply . I just sighed and went to get something to eat .
Dusk came by fast , mum , Chelsea and dad were back home . Currently, I'm on my bed with my sister on my stomach . She's watching her favorite show .
Peppa pig . I used to watch that show .
I want to sleep .
