Chapter 6

~Becky's P.O.V~
"Bye you guys, see you tomorrow," I waved as Ben and Joe walked out of the gate. Dad came up behind me and kissed my head, then pulled me into hug. I cherished these sweet moments we had together, I loved them.

"I love you," Dad said. I smiled into his chest and squeezed tighter.

"I love you too." I said. He let go and put his hands on his hips.

"But if I catch you sneaking out of school again, there'll be trouble." He pointed his finger in my face and I chuckled. He smirked and messed up my hair, kicking the back of my legs as I went upstairs.

My chest was feeling no better, it was actually getting worse. I didn't want to say anything to dad because he'd either worry or think I'm trying to skive off school. But I went upstairs and got washed and changed, then, into my comfortable bed.

SEPTEMBER 8th 1988

I woke up the next morning in the exact same way as yesterday. I was lying on my stomach, and dad came running in and yanked the covers off of my body. I groaned loudly and he tickled my feet at the end of my bed until I got up.

"Come on, Becky." He said with his hands on his hips. I flopped back into bed and pulled the covers over my head.

"Go away." I said, throwing a pillow at him.

"Woah..." he dodged my pillow and threw it back onto my bed.

"Come on, up. I'll be downstairs," I groaned and got out of my comfortable, warm, cozy bed into the freezing cold room.

I went in the bathroom and got washed, then, I put on my uniform. I threw my bag over my shoulder and went downstairs. Jim was, once again, sitting at the table reading his newspaper.

"Morning, Jim." I said. He smiled and looked at me.

"Morning sweetheart." He said. I brushed his shoulder with my hand and put my bag on the floor, sitting in the chair next to him. Dad came out of the kitchen and sat next to me, with no food or anything.

"Um... Dad," I said. He folded his arms and smirked, Jim kept looking up from his newspaper and I was beginning to get suspicious.

After a few minutes of awkward silence, I finally said something.

"Ok, what's going on you've be-"

"Shh!" Dad said putting his finger up to my mouth and stopping me. I pulled it away and inhaled, until he stopped me then too. I went to stand up and leave when the kitchen door opened and someone I haven't seen for a long time came out.

"Phoebe!" I yelled, throwing my arms around him. He laughed and hugged me back tightly. Phoebe was Dads personal assistant, and my best friend, up until a few years ago when he left, Dad never told me why. But he's back and I couldn't be happier!

'What are you doing here?" I asked with my wrists in his hands.

"Well, your dad wanted me back, and I couldn't last without seeing you." He smiled and hugged me again. Dad stood up and joined in the hug, Jim just laughed and drank his tea.

"I'm so happy you're here." I said. He sounded like he was smiling, if that makes sense, I can't really see because my face is buried into his chest.

"Me too, Becky, me too." He said.

We sat at the table and talked for a while, until it was time for me to go to school. I sighed when I looked up at the clock and stood up.

"Well, I'd better go, I'm gonna be late." I sighed and walked out the door. "Bye guys!" I said waving slightly. Everyone smiled and Phoebe waved. I smiled as I went out the front door.

As I was walking down the path, I saw someone in the same uniform walk past, he was beautiful. His hair was combed perfectly and dark brown, his skin was slightly tanned and I could see the muscles through his shirt, I'm guessing his hoodie was in his bag. I desperately wanted to go over and say something, but I don't have the guts to do that, so I just slowly walked behind him.

I made it to school and I met up with Joe, who was waiting outside.

"Hiya!" I said smiling. He hugged me and I just stood there, my arms were pinned to my side because of how tightly he was hugging me. 

"Um... Joe?" I asked. He let go and smiled. "You okay?"

"Mhm," He said. "I just missed you." He responded.

"Aw, Joe." I said brushing his arm. "I missed you too," I said. We walked into the school building and around the first floor.

"What lesson do you have first?" I asked. He pulled out his timetable and showed me. Science. Great, that meant I have maths. Just fucking great. I'm gonna be alone in the worst subject known to man.

And just as Joe was about to say something, the bell went. He sighed and started walking off.

"See you, Becky. Meet me outside my class, okay?" He said. I nodded and went to my first lesson.

I went inside and, just like last time, all the seats were taken. Apart from one. One next to the fit guy from this morning. There was nowhere else for me to sit, so I sat next to him. He smiled and looked at me. I smiled back and took my pencil case out from my backpack.

"Hi." He said. I smiled awkwardly and tried not to blush as he look at me.

"What's your name?" He asked me. I put my pencil case on the table and put my bag on the floor.

"Oh, Becky, Becky Bulsara." I said.

"Hi, Becky. My names Jack, Jack Prenter."
