CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO; CARTER MEETS THE AFTERMATH
❝ wear your heart on your cheek. ❞
.・:*:・゚'✫,'✫'゚・:*:・˙
THE MONDAY FOLLOWING that weekend had gone off to a good start. Carter's morning classes had gone well, and the Sunday morning train ride back from Texas had gone better than she had thought. Granted, she did have her headphones in the entire time, and sat with Zay instead of Farkle, and had left the other four to themselves.
She hadn't spoken to Farkle since the kiss, she didn't know how. But walking into school that morning and seeing him standing by her locker waiting for him had reassured her that he was still here. He walked her to each of her classes in silence, and still held her hand, but it was different. They both knew it.
Farkle didn't think he had it in him to kiss Carter that night, and little did he know Maya and Lucas had their own moment just a few feet away, seconds apart. Of course, those three had a world of emotions to figure out, but that didn't mean the lesson had to be just about them. And so, when Mr. Matthews had started the lesson, Farkle began to think.
"The Hoover Dam on the Arizona/Nevada border holds back ten trillion gallons of confused 14-year-old feelings that look to smack down the concrete structure of your life and my life," Mr. Matthews ranted. "I can't take it anymore, so everybody sit here and do not move."
Farkle sighed loudly, causing the class to cast him strange looks. He never interrupted a lesson unless it was to have some intellectual input, and Carter furrowed her brows at the back of his head.
"Because as strong as the structural integrity the Hoover Dam might be, just one little tiny drop of water that makes its way through this barrier will chip away at the structural integrity of our lives as we know them—" Mr. Matthews paused as Riley was passed a note.
"Riley something happened between me and Lucas," Maya suddenly interrupted.
The country boy sighed. "Oh boy"
As Riley proceeded to accept Charlie Gardener's invitation, and as she did so the rest of his friends didn't cast him or Carter any glance at all, Farkle couldn't take it anymore.
"That's it!" He exclaimed, earning shocked looks from his friends. Carter looked up at him with worry.
"None of you noticed," Farkle said with a snarky tone. "I didn't talk to her all day, I didn't check my phone I didn't talk to any of you all day."
Maya shook her head in confusion. "Farkle what—"
Riley looked up at him. "We were busy, Farkle we—"
