What I crave most

Chapter 2

 Athena's POV

The very moment I got home, my mom had asked me why I was "so late". Truthfully, I was 1 minute early and I'm surprised she didn't notice the rips in my jeans. I honestly wonder if my mother is crazy. She was making some type of inedible food in the kitchen for dinner. 'I'm not hungry' I told her with slight irritation in my voice. 'Okay honey just go and get some rest, I will wake you up at 6:15. Okay?' She replies and I just nod my head in an automatic response. I walk past Jonah's room knocking on his door he opens the door and looks at me confused 'Yes sister dearest' he grins up at me. 'Mom says dinner is about to be done so get dressed and go eat' I reply as he nods to me. After a bit of exchanging words, he closes his door and I walk right to my in bedroom and shower. The steaming water hitting my tense skin and washing the dried blood out of my cuts. It's relaxing but also very painful all the same. My back has red scratches on it because of my stupid self forgetting my jacket at Ashton's house. The crystal clear water spraying out the nozzle onto the floor is slowly turning a slight pink color. Before I know it the water turns cold... I hop out of the shower and yet that stupid girl is still in my mind. Her plump lips. Her honey blonde hair. I don't know if it's from shock or just pure frustration but I started crying. Putting on my silk nightgown over my soft silhouette I went to go lay down on my bed and sleep.

It was all peaceful until Jonah came barging into my room. 'Mom says get up now or you're gonna have to ride the bus' groaning I threw my pillow at what I hope was his face. I stood up in my groggy state and stretched my arms towards the sky. Humming 8 letters by Why don't we; I began my journey down the stairs. I told my mom I'd ride the bus today so Jonah could be on time.

I hugged her and left. Walking down the street to the bus stop; I stop at a bush and watch as the girl from the other day steps onto my bus.

The bus door opens and of course, she's the only one with an open seat. My mind seemed to have gone blank because next thing I know is I'm sitting next to her and her bare shoulder is touching my clothed one. My oh my what a smooth shoulder it is. I opened my mouth to speak to her but nothing came out. 'Hey sweetheart' she smirked. I rolled my eyes at her and she just smiled. 'So since when did the beautifully insane start riding the bus?' She asked

'The beautifully insane huh? Didn't know that's what cheer captains were called nowadays.'I replied

Willow's POV

She had sat right next to me with the blankest stare I'd have ever seen in my whole life. I discretely nudged her shoulder with mine; she had opened her mouth but closed it a couple seconds after. 'Hey sweetheart' I said with a smirk. She rolled her eyes at me and all I did was smile and think about how cute she would be if she smiled more. I asked her 'So since when did the beautifully insane start riding the bus?' And she had the smartest fucking reply. 'The beautifully insane huh? Didn't know that's what cheer captains were called nowadays' I looked directly at her and just shrugged waiting for the bus to bring me to my hell. Suddenly the thought came to mind that we had never been introduced. By the time I realized, she was already gone. I went to the office and told them I'm a transfer. The lady gave me a fake smile and I swear it looked like she was constipated. Let's see... Mr.johnson - Calculous, Ms. Lisa- British Literature, Mr. Michaelson- Biology, Mrs. Grace- French 2. My classes are all senior courses? I turn around and the lady isn't there anymore; I shrug and try to find my classrooms. My first class was interesting, the guy (Mr. Johnson) introduced me as William King because he only saw will on my paper. I told him he was wrong and then he just shook his head and told me to sit down in any chair. It was just plain boring. My second block was a bit interesting as well. She introduced me and told me to sit by Athen, in front of Ashton and at first, I didn't know who that was until she raised her hand without looking up. I sat down next to her and whispered 'Didn't know you could look so beautiful and so bored sweetheart.' Her head shot up so quick towards me. She went right back to her work once she stuck her tongue out at me. 'Careful to whom you show your sweet tongue to sweetheart' Then class went right back to boring. After class, Athena stuck her tongue out at me and you'll never guess what I did. I'll tell you anyways.

I grabbed her arm, spun her towards me and then I kissed her...

Okay so I'm lying. I glared at her in a playful manner. Not gonna lie about this though. I do think I like her a lot. After all she is MY sweetheart.
