"Give me a minute to hold my girl
Give me a minute to hold my girl"
~ George Ezra "Hold My Girl"
Chance had spent the night round Emily's that night as Emily was taking her art class first lesson of the day and they wanted to go together.
So in the end, Chance had to invade Emily's emergency supply of clothes for if she shifted without warning.
When they left the house, Emily was wearing her favourite of Sam's flannels with a grey vest top and ripped baggy jeans with boots. Whereas Chance left in a black crop top with a sunflower patterned breast pocket, a pair of ripped jeans shorts, heavy steel capped boots and an eggshell grey oversized button up shirt that she left undone.
They met up with Embry, Jared and Paul, who all got a lift from Emily to school.
"I call shotgun!" Chance cheered, sliding into the passenger seat of Emily's dusty black car with Bobby following in after her. The girl had happily taught Chance how to drive and Paul taught her how to ride a motorbike too, so as soon as Chance was ready to tell Charlie that she could hear and get an hearing appointment to confirm this, she could legally buy Paul's spare motorbike off him and get a licence to drive it.
Paul sat behind Emily and Embry slid into the centre seat, leaving Jared to take the final seat behind Chance. "Are you all ready?" Emily asked them all patiently, a small amused smile on her face.
There was a string chorus of yeahs and yeses before Emily shook her head. "It would help if you all decided to bring your bags to school.." she trailed off as Jared hopped out, offering to get everyone's things for them.
It was a strange sight for Chance to see the boys wearing actual shirts, but over the three months she has been attending school with them, she gradually began to get used to it. Today Paul decided on a plain black t shirt with a white pocket and Embry stuck with his usual graphic tees that Chance first met him in.
Finally Jared returned, passing them all their bags before he threw his down by his feet and straightening his sleeveless black and white flannel.
"Now are we ready?" Emily laughed, hearing the string chorus start up again, and with that, they were off.
Jasper watched Alice with mild curiosity as she opened the messaging app on her phone with great excitement practically oozing off her skin.
"So, now Edward's disappeared for a couple of days with Carlisle to do some stress relief things, I decided that it was time to get back in contact with miss Chance Lively." Alice beamed.
As much as Jasper wanted to tell her no, he was curious to why her reply would have been, so he went along with it.
Chance was sitting beside Paul in European History when her phone buzzed in her breast pocket, making a small noise that was barely audible to anyone but Paul who twisted in his seat and raised her eyebrows.
"Who is it?" He whispered to her so their grouchy old teacher Mr. Blossom didn't hear them at the back of the room. In order to answer his nosey question, Chance pulled out her phone and let her eyebrows furrow.
UNKNOWN:
- hey Chance, I know it's been a while.. how are you? We're missing you like hell!
She glanced up to check if Blossom was staring at her before turning to Paul and signing;
"Who the fuck could this be?" She asked in minimalised movements. Paul shrugged, before turning to the board and hastily jotting down the notes that Chance had let him borrow from her school work iPad.
