Chapter Seven

Vanessa's Point of View:

The next day, I walked the halls alone. Luke was coming to school late because of a doctors appointment, so until he got here around lunch time, I was alone. Standing at my locker before first period, I felt a presence standing beside me. Turning my head, I was shocked to see Addison.

"Hey.. Can I talk to you?"

Looking at her surprised, I nodded. "Uhm, sure."

Shutting my locker, I followed Addi into the girls bathroom. "What's up?"

"I am so done with Bethany." she groaned in frusteration.

"Hey! Me too," I laughed.

She rolled her eyes at me. "Get serious,"

"Okay, okay I'm sorry. What did she do?"

"She just keeps talking shit about you," Addison told me, "And it makes me mad because I don't hate you like she does,"

"Well there's nothing we can do about that. Bethany is Bethany. And when she hates somebody, she's always gonna talk shit," I stated the obvious.

"I know that," Addison sighed. "But if I completely drop her, can we please be friends again?"

"We never stopped being friends. Me and Beth stopped being friends. Me and you did not stop being friends, because we didn't hate each other. We just didn't talk."

"You're confusing me." Addison laughed.

"Yes Addison, we can be friends again." I said, deciding to not explain what I had just told her.

"Oh thank god! I'm getting so sick of Bethany and Kendra." She told me, sighing in relief.

"So Kendra hates me? She seemed sorry for ditching me at the party,"

"Bethany turned her against you.." Addison sighed.

"Not surprising." I rolled my eyes.

"I believe you about the whole Jason thing. I didn't really see what happened, I just kinda went along with what Beth was saying.. And I'm so sorry for that," She apologized.

"It's okay Addison, I know Beth can be pretty convincing."

"Well I have to get to class, see you at lunch? Oh and, I want all details about you and Hemmings. I've seen you guys together.. I see something. I want details at lunch though!" she said and grinned, as she walked out of the bathroom. I just laughed and rolled my eyes playfully.

There wasn't anything to explain about me and Luke. Except that almost kiss thing, I have no idea where that even came from. I didn't like him like that, he was just a friend, A really good, caring friend. Something in me told me to kiss him though. I don't know why.. I wanted to kiss him a little bit, just to see what it would feel like. I've been kissed before, but it was never anything special.

Luke was just.. Different. He wasn't all player like, he's not one of those guys who thinks they can get any girl. And for some reason, I was kind of dissapointed when the bell rang, interupting our almost kiss. I started to feel something towards Luke, I didn't know what though. It couldn't be feelings, theres no way in hell he would ever like me back. I was me. Just average. Nothing special.

Something was happening though. I was starting to feel something towards Luke, I couldn't tell what it was though.

I felt like kissing him would be the only way to know for sure.

Drowning in my thoughts, I heard the bell ring. Silently cussing, I grabbed my materials that were placed on the sink, and ran out of the bathroom, making my way to first period.
