Chapter 2: Forgetful
—๑—
•Maddie's Pov•
Taylor walks by my side into school, since I've been having problems mom thinks it's best. Taylor begins to walk me to my first class as we quietly talk on the way.
"Bye Maddie, have a good day. I love you!" she hugs me tightly and kisses my forehead
"Bye Tay, I love you more" I wave to her before she leaves.
I sit in silence, staring at the empty seats ahead of me.
The bell then rings, everyone comes running through the door.
"Alright class, today we will be taking notes from our textbooks"
I fumble around in my bag, looking for my textbook, notebook and pen.
I pull them out and open the textbook to a random page and stare at the textbook, pretending to do my work.
"Miss Greene, please share your answer for question 3"
I ignore him, i haven't even answered question 1.
"I don't have the answer" I say quietly.
"You should be up to question 5 by now. Please don't get distracted"
I nodded, staring at my empty notebook.
"Hey" someone whispers and I turn around.
"Maddie" Asher whispered as i looked at him.
"Yes?" I quietly reply.
"Here's the answers" he says, passing me his notebook.
I take it and turn back around, suddenly the bell rings.
I quickly grab my textbook and pen and place them in my bag.
I slowly walk out the door and head to my locker.
•Asher's Pov•
I handed Maddie my notes since she didn't have the answers. The bell then rang and she left her notebook behind, i pick it up and realise she didn't write a thing. that's odd.
I leave the classroom in a hurry to see if I can find her. I see her looking closely at the lockers.
"Maddie!" I called out as she turned to look at me.
"Asher? What are you doing here?" she whispers.
"You forgot your notebook" I say, handing it back to her.
"Oh, thanks" she sighs, staring at the lockers.
"Did you forget where your locker is?"
"Uh, yeah.. I'm looking for locker 77"
It's right in front of her, I guess she read the number wrong.
"Here it is" I smile, she seems like such a nice girl and i'd love to be her friend.
"Thank you" she gives me a small smile, looking for the key in her bag to unlock her locker. I hand it to her.
"Here" I smile again and unlock it for her.
"Thanks, but I can do it by myself" she sighs.
"Sorry" I shrug my shoulders as she grabs her books and closes her locker.
"I guess I'll see you later"
"Maybe" she sighs as I leave her in the hall.

The final bell rang for the day, I wait outside for Taylor and my mom. As I'm waiting someone sits beside me on the bench.
"Hi" I said quietly, not knowing who it was.
"Ew, I'm sitting next to a dork"
"Hey Mackenzie, ew you just sat next to the loser" another girl says.
"I'm so annoyed, I didn't notice it was her"
"Oh well" they both laugh.
"Let's go, Nadia" mackenzie says.
"Laters, loner" nadia calls out.
i hear a car pull up and honk, i stand up and get inside the back.
"hey honey, how was your day?" my mom asks.
"fine" i sigh as she drives off.
once we arrive home, Taylor and i sit on the couch.
my phone buzzes.
"it's a message, from someone called asher"
i nod "oh"
"who's that?" Taylor asks.
"just some boy at school." i pause for a moment.
"reply back to him, please" i say, walking over to the fridge to grab a bottle of water.
—๑—Messages below—๑—"Good news, Maddie. You're going on a date tonight"
"Wait, what?!" I pause for a moment.
"Taylor, are you sure?"
"Absolutely sure"
I was a little nervous, I've never been on a date before. What will I say? What will I wear? Am I overreacting? No, definitely not!
