8th Period

8

- Monday -

My parents left for another trip before I woke up, I got ready and made myself coffee. It was 5 :45 AM and I usually wouldn't get up this early but since Ryan was going to be taking me to school, we had to be there early. I went to the bathroom and started to brush my teeth. As I was brushing them I heard knocking on the door. I continued to brush as I went to the front room and swung open the door. Standing there was Ryan with a grin on his face.

"I think you got a little something." He said doing circular motions with his finger around his mouth, I rolled my eyes and walked back to the bathroom.

I rinsed out my mouth and watched Ryan appear behind me in the mirror. He looked at me fondly with a light hearted smile. He was so cute. I turned around and smiled, kissing him passionately for a few moments. Then he picked me up and placed me on the bathroom counter giving me flashbacks of what happened in the classroom.

"Too bad you aren't wearing a skirt." He whispered in between kisses.

I wanted to take things slow, times like this I just wanted to throw all of that away. I pulled away grabbing my phone and checking the time, it was almost 6 and we needed to leave.

"We have to go." I said getting off the counter and grabbing his hand pulling him out of the bathroom.
"Yeah yeah."

We pulled into the school parking lot and Ryan looked towards me. He pushed a stray hair behind my ear and leaned over to me. I moved towards him and we gave each other a few rushed kisses.

"I'll see you during 8th period." He said opening the door and smiling.
"See you then." I said with a wink and watched as he closed the door.

I watched Grey's Anatomy while I waited. I haven't talked to Hazel or Luna, and I haven't tried too. It would just be so hard to explain because they both know I wasn't really at Ethan's. I didn't know what to tell them so I thought staying away for a few days would be a distraction.

When my episode was over I slyly got out of the truck and walked to the school. The entire school day all I could think about, was Ryan he was my everything second thought. How could I fall this fast? I've always thought he was cute but I never really had a crush on him since Friday. This was too fast. Way too fast. He was always in the back of my mind and I didn't mind him there, at least for now.

I walked in, my eyes low. Intentionally avoiding looking at him, knowing he was looking at me with the smirk that drove me crazy. I was the first in there, he started to say something but as he spoke other kids entered the unorganized classroom. We had a free day that day because some students had to make up their tests because they weren't here Friday. Hazel, Luna, and I sat quietly while playing Uno in a group chat with some of our other friends. Throughout the first half of the class period Ryan and I exchanged a few awkward looks. I had a feeling in my chest, not a good one. A feeling of guilt.
