It's About Time

Something isn't right here, I slept for like 20 hours today. I still just wanna lay down, and mope for the rest of this weekend. It was hard enough getting up to do this, if I even finish this all in one go. Anyways bare with me, I only have a few parts of this chapter planned out.

~•~ Recap ~•~

Jonah & Marty and Amber & Andi went on a double date to encounter Walker & Natalie who were also dating. Suspicion was raised of who was dating who, and Natalie convinced Amber & Jonah to kiss. Natalie posted a photo of the two kissing that Cyrus & Jonah & TJ had all saw. Meanwhile Marty admitted that he doesn't want to hide his relationship with Jonah anymore, pretending to date someone else was hurting him emotionally. Jonah complies on one condition, that they take it slow.

"¡Díganme cosas buenas, woo!" (Tell me something good, woo!) la maestra de español canta (the Spanish teacher sang). Ugh, how Jonah did not enjoy being in Spanish class so early in the morning, or in Spanish class at all. Jonah looked over at Cyrus who was smiling as happy as can be, how in the world can he enjoy this class? Jonah thought to himself. Jonah didn't understand most of the things that was being said in the class due to the teacher giving most of the directions in Spanish now. He had tried to ask to go to the bathroom once, apparently he said it wrong though, and couldn't end up going. It still baffled Jonah how necesito usar del baño (I need to use of the bathroom), was incorrect. Even with a sympathetic por favor (please), she had told him no no (no). Jonah eventually ended up telling her no lo se (I don't know), when she questioned him on what it was. She ended up telling him that he was going to have to redo the class if he did not study outside of school, and improve that way he can catch back up with the rest of his class.

Spanish just seemed so hard for Jonah, it was like he was trying to learn a whole new language. "¿Quién es tu amigo o amiga?" (Who is your friend?) the teacher asked him while he sat at his desk.

"Cyrus," Jonah simply told her.

Apparently that was the wrong way to answer somehow. Jonah hated it, she asked who his friend was, and he told her Cyrus who is his friend. "Mi amigo es Cyrus," (My friend is Cyrus) she said moving onto the next person. Each morning she went down the rows asking each student a question, and grading them on their verbal response. That portion of his grade always made him suffer, it wasn't like the assignments he could go home and google, only to find that they are somehow wrong.

When the class was dismissed Jonah was so relieved he could get on with his day to other classes that he actually knew how to do. Cyrus had went down the hallway to meet up with TJ who didn't look too well. He had dark circles under his eyes and a pained expression that spoke more than his mouth did. "TJ, are you sick?"

"I'm gonna be if I have to keep being friends with you," TJ harshly told him. TJ loved Cyrus, but he could not control what was coming out of his mouth. He was so done with everything.

"What? Why?" Cyrus asked. How could this have happened? He done nothing wrong, in fact he was helping by trying to hook Amber up with TJ.

"I can't stand being around you, after everything that's happened, it's unfair. If your truly my friend then come over to my house after school."

"It's not my fault that you feel this way," Cyrus told him. "I would come over any day, just not today I already invited Lucas over to my house."
"See that's exactly what I'm talking about," TJ pointed out extending his arms in exasperation. Meanwhile Lucas saw the heated conversation going on between the boys near the end of the hall. He decided to go check it out. "I set you up with a guy, and now you don't have time for me. It's what all my friends do, they find themselves a boyfriend, or girlfriend and leave me in the dirt."
