And When He Is Here // hayes grier

Chapter 29

Important note at the bottom!

↠Hayes

What the hell does that mean? She knows I don't take French. Oh wait, that's why she did it. She knows I don't take French and she wants me to figure it out. She wants me to work for it. And hell yeah I'm going to work for it.

Jack. Jack tales French with B. I have to find him. I searched for him in the halls and I was so going to be late to my next class but I don't care because this is going to drive me crazy. I spotted a tall kid with dark hair wearing jeans and a sweatshirt. Jack.

"Dude, dude, dude!" I yelled running over to him.

"Can I wait I have to go to class.." He tried to walk away. I grabbed his forearm and pulled him back.

"Nope you got help me."

"Is it quick?" he asked.

"Yes. Now what does 'Je vous ai manqué' mean?" I said repeating B's words.

He thought for a moment. Then it rung a bell in his head. "It means I have missed you."

"Are you serious bro?" I was getting a excited.

"Dead serious. I gotta go. Good luck with whatever you needed that for." He walked away to his class.

"Yes!" I yelled in the middle of the hall. People stared at me but I just gave them all a 'fuck off' look.

I ran to my next class which had B in it. I made it to class just in time. I was in science and we were learning something about the earth.

But I kept my focus on her the entire time. I tend to do that. Just zone out while looking at her. I can get so easily lost looking into the galaxies of her eyes.

Before I new it science was over and so was the school day. I quickly got everything from my locker and started running to the closest store.

Bradie

I saw him basically sprint out of science class but then didn't see him after. I looked around the halls for him, but no sign.

"Where's your boy at?" Kelly asked when she was leaning against the locker next to mine.

"He's not my boy anymore." I opened up my locker and put my books on the self. I lifted my bag off the hook and swung one strap over my right shoulder. We started heading out to the buses.

"I saw him staring at you during science." She nudged me with her shoulder and moved her eyebrows up and down.

"Really?" I got kind of happy and got those butterflies in my stomach. she nodded her head rapidly with a smile plastered on her face. I could feel a smile threatening to appear on my face. I looked forward while bitting the insides of my cheeks.

"I also heard something about you telling him something in French?"

"Oh. Yeah. That." I would be blushing right now if I did blush. But I don't. So thank god.

She tugged at my left arm. "What did you say?!"

"Je vous ai manqué" I repeated what I said to Hayes.

"What the heck does that mean?"

We approached my bus and it was perfect timing. "Oh look my bus! Gotta go talk to you later!" I talked loudly sense I was walking away, but still facing her.

"Bradie!"

I put my arms out to my sides and shrugged my shoulders with a smirk, "sorry" I remarked sarcastically.

She rolled her eyes and made her way to her bus.

I stepped onto the bus and scanned the seats for Hayes. He wasn't there but I did find Ryan. I took a seat next to my brother.

Ryan ended up going over to a friends house when he got off the bus. So I walked home alone. When I got home there was something on my doorstep. I bent down and picked up a dozen daisies. My favorite flower. There was a note inside the flowers.

I have missed you too

The smile from earlier was back but bigger than ever. I took the flowers in my hand and speed walked over to Hayes. I knocked on the glass door with my free hand. The door swung open revealing Hayes. Without hesitation I wrapped my arms around his neck. "I love you." I told him.

He rubbed my back which I absolutely loved. "I love you too."

I looked up at him with my hands still locked around his neck. "I'm sorry. I over reacted. It was sent from Dylan to you. And only you. And I got mad that he sent you something and you didn't tell me. But it's okay. Also thank you for the note you left me. I loved it. And I'm sorry I didn't tell you about meeting Myles. And if you want I can tell you all about my trip." I flashed him a smile.

"I'm sorry I hid it from you. And I would love to hear about your trip." He returned a smile. I hadn't taken off my backpack till now and I set it on their couch. I said hi to nash while heading up to Hayes' room. We say on his bed facing each other. I started to tell him.

About when I first showed up at his house and how we talked for hours. How we went shopping at all the best places in LA. How we went to the best restaurant. I told him about myles' older sister thats 17 and had leukemia. But how she beat it a little less than a year ago. I told him that Myles got his memory back two years ago, and that he's moving back to Virginia in a few weeks. I told him how we look so much alike, and how I like him so much as a brother. And how I felt an instant connection and that I think that if we would have got to grow up together I think that we would have been best friends. And that I miss him terribly.

Hayes listened to every word I said too. I could see that he was interested in what I had to say.

After about 30 minutes of telling him stories I was finished. We just talked about random things like what he did while I was in California. And just other random things. I really missed him a lot. I was in the middle of a sentence when Hayes cut me off with the mist random sentence.

"B will you be my girlfriend again?" he looked me in the eyes.

A smile came on to my face. My head nodded rapidly. "Yes. Yes I will." I put my hands on his cheeks and smashed my lips to his.

We started talking about random things again and laughed and the dumbest things. But one question wouldn't leave my mind. And it was driving me crazy and Hayes could tell.

"What's going on in that head of yours?"

I cracked my knuckles, "what did Dylan's text say?" He sighed like he knew this question was coming and pulled his phone out of his pocket. I'm guessing he never deleted the text. He actually never deletes his texts. I handed his phone to me.

She's the girl who looks down when you stare at her for a little to long, and turns away if you catch her looking. She's the girl who's hair gets a little knotted and who's smile isn't always real. She's the girl who cried herself to sleep sometimes and cares a little to much about what you say. But she's the girl who laughs at all your jokes-- funny or not; the one who will love you with every inch inside her. She's the girl who will watch stars with you at night, ask how your day was when you get home. She's the kind of girl you'll find asleep with a book in her hand at 3 AM, or the kind that leaves your sweatshirts smelling sweeter than before. She's the kind of girl that will give you her whole heart, so you have to handle her it care. Handle her with care. And look out for her. Because she deserves someone like you. So take care of her and protect her please.
