Falling For You

Chapter 2

As soon as the bell rang to dismiss us for the day,I got my phone out, went on YouTube, and started watching Brent Rivera's vines.

Brent: Everyone's growing up and getting into relationships,while I'm just sitting here,eating,its sad.

Brent: That one person that everyone likes,and You're just like,why ye looks like a fricken potato?!?

I paused the video because someone was tapping me. "What,quit staring at me!" I yelled,causing everyone who was bedside us turned our way. Lucy and I just burst out laughing. "Sorry,you just have something right there." Lucy said, while pointing to the side of my mouth. I I knew what she was doing,so I started to play along. "Right here?" I asked. "Yeah,its like a pimple or something." she replied. "You're a fricken pimple idiot." I said. We just burst out laughing again. "You're my best friend." I told her. "I know." she said trying to act like those rich girls. Which by the way she is,just not snobby. "Guess what!?!" she squealed. "Nope,I am not guessing,you are." I said while patting her head. "Uuuugh." she groaned. "Jacob asked me to prom!!!!" she yelled. "And there's going to be special guest there!" she squealed again. "Yipee?" I asked. "Well I gots to go." she said. "Text me!" i yelled. i grabbed my iphone out and texted her.

Lucy: Shutup(slaps your cheek)

Taylor:oooowwww,ma cheek meat!!!

Lucy:OMG,R U Ok?!?

Taylor: (fake crys into this wierd looking person beside me)

Lucy: Phone's about to die,bye!

Taylor: Don't make excuses because you made me cry!!!

*end of conversation*

"Hey." someone said beside me. "Oh,hey Lucas,what are you doing here?" I asked. "I'm just about to drive home." he replied. "What about you?" he asked. "Just waiting for my friend Blake to walk me home." I replied. "I can drive you if you want." He asked. "Nah,that's ok." I said with a smile. "You do realize it's raining right?" He asked. "It is,oh my gosh I didn't even notice." I said with a sarcastic tone,but also in a playfull tone. Before he could say anything Emily came between Lucas and I. "Hey Lucas." She said,blocking me out of his view. "Oh,hey Emily." He said. "I kinda need a ride since you know...it's raining." She said while batting her eyelashes. "Oh,uh,ok,Taylor want a ride too?" He asked. "Um"-I was cut off by Emily. "No,she doesn't,her friend Blake is walking her home." She said while giving me a death glare. Jeez,what's her problem? He gave me a "so what do you choose?" Look. "Yeah,I can't let him walk home alone." I said while giving him a sorry smile. "Great,come on!" Emily said while getting excited. Emily grabbed Lucas' sleeve while running into the parking lot.

While I was searching for Blake in the crowd of people that now formed outside,I felt a buzz coming from my pocket telling me I had a text.

Blake: sorry,I had a dentist appointment,can't walk you home,sorry. =(

Taylor: it's fine. =)

Blake: Sorry.

After that I decided to just go ahead and walk home. It was pouring and I didn't have a jacket and it was freezing. When I walked from the place I was at,a lot if hard raindrops hit my body. I froze for a second and then went back to walking. I was slowly walking down the sidewalk. And that's when I saw the guy that I have been crushing on since the 8th grade. His name was Chris. He had dark brown hair but a lot lighter that went into a quiff and he was a little taller than me. He was talking to Jessica,she basically sleeps with every guy in school. She has blond hair,perfect soft,and strait. She also has hazel eyes. Today she wore a really short dress that went to high. There's a reason why I dislike her,and it's not because she's talking to Chris,but another reason that is a different story. She hates me a lot,but so does mostly every girl in school,and I seriously don't know why!!! I never did anything to them. I guess I was staring because he looked at me and gave me one of his perfect smiles. Jessica saw him looking and she turned my way and pointed daggers at me. While I was staring at his perfect smile I didn't notice a big lamppost in my way and i ran into it,hard. I fell on my ankle which caused pain to go through it. "Ow,Frick!" I screamed. I didn't mean to,it just came out. My ankle hurts sooooo bad. I couldn't stand,which meant I couldn't walk. "Are you ok?" Someone asked running to me. I just stared at him,it was Chris. We used to be best friends since kindergaten,but then for some reason we stopped hanging out in the fourth grade. Now we just say hey or hi in the hallways. Chris laughed while giving me a sparkling smile. "Ye,ye,yes?" I stuttered and said it as a question. "Can you walk?" He asked giving me my hand. I took his offer and tied to stand,but fell on my ankle again. "Ooo ow." I said quietly to myself. "Man,I didn't think it was that bad," he said with a worried look on his face. "Here let's get you to a doctor he said. He picked me up bridal style. I was in complete shock. I'm i dead,is this a dream? While he carried me to his pickup truck I sniffed him. Aaaah,cupcakes. "Did you just sniff me?" He asked while looking at me with an adorable smile on his face. "Uuuuh,no." I said smiling back. "Why?"I asked. "No reason." He said,still smiling,and so was I. We were now at his truck. He set me in the passenger seat,buckled me up,closed the door,and went to the drivers seat. "Here",he said while taking off his jacket and put it on the dash board. "Lay your ankle on it." He said. I tried but it hurt to much. "Here,let me try." He said. "Look in to my eyes." He commanded. I did what I was told. He had amazing light grey eyes,beautiful to be exact. Helen I look in them,it's like nothing else matters in this world but him. That nothing can hurt me. "There." He said,staring at me for a few seconds and then looked away. I couldn't look away. I felt something between us, there was an awkward silence. After a few minutes of sitting in silence withought driving. Chris finally turned on the truck and backed up fom the school's parking lot. "Are you not worried about your seats getting wet?" I asked. "No." He said p,his eyes on the road. "Oh,ok." I said. "How did you do that?" I asked."what?" He asked. "You know,the stair into your eyes thing?" I asked. "Oh,well when I see you in the hallways,I noticed you always stair into my eyes,I guess you probably liked them. And you know when you like something you keep your eyes on it,you don't know what's happening to or around you,so yeah." He replied.m"that's pretty cool." I say. "Yeah,it is." He said,his eyes still on the road. "Can I turn on the radio?" I asked. "Yeah,sure." He replied while shrugging. "Crowded hallways,are the loneliest places." The radio blared out. "Oh my god,I love this song!!!!" I screamed. "Me too." Chris said while smiling. We San with the song. Well actually screaming them out loud until it was over. We laughed. "That was fun." I said in between laughs. Chris couldn't stop laughing.

*at the hospital*

"Ok,this might hurt just a little." The nurse said. I was taking x-rays and Vhris is still in the waiting room. "Ow!" I screamed. "I thought you said it would hurt just a little,I want my money back." I said,even if I didn't pay yet. Well this is awkward. "Ok you're all done,I'm just going to scan these. " the nurse said.

*a few minutes later*

"You have a visitor." The nurse said in a grumpy voice. "Hey,you okay?" Chris asked. "No,my ankle is broken and my head is killing me." I replied. "You'll be fine. And maybe I could take care of you at home and school." He said while giving me a smile. It's adorable how he's trying to lighten up the mood."maybe." I said smiling back. "I've been meaning to ask you this in the truck,did-okay,let's get this bandage thing on you." The nurse interrupted. She got this styrofoam board and cut with a machine in the back the size of my ankle. "This might hurt a little." The nurse said. Mhm,I heard that before. "You can squeez my hand." Chris said while giving me his hand. I took it. I like how it feels,his hand in mine. He stared in my eyes for a second. He then turned away,leaving me staring at the side of his head. I looked at the ceiling,squeezing Chris' hand because the nurse was putting the bandage thing on. Tears were coming out of my eyes,that's how bad it hurt. "It's ok,it's ok." Chris said,not looking in my eyes but at me.

*after that*

My crutches were helping me stand up in the elevator. "Well,now I can see why it hurt som much." Chris said. He was looking at the x-rays it was separated almost completely. "How am I hoping to explain this to my dad?"I asked. I looked at the ceiling. "I don't know." He said while walking out of the elevator. It's already night. "Well it's the weekend, my dad is working,sister has dance practice,my other sister is probably making with Lucas telling by the way she flirts. So,I guess just drop me off at my grandmas"I said. "Nope." He said. We were now back on the road. "Why?" I asked. "Because,do you really wat a person to mix stir your soup and then,BAM,they're dentures fall in the bowl?" He asked I between laughs. "Why would you think that?" I asked. "Because I broke my leg,that happened,and a lot of stuff that will scar me for life." He said while giving me a smile. I just burst out laughing. "It's not funny." He said in between laughs. I just laughed even more. "You have a cute laugh." He said. "Really?" I asked. "Yeah." He replied. "Oh." I said while staring out of the window. "Hey,hey,stop here!" I said while jumping in my seat. The nurse gave me painkillers so it didn't hurt as much.it was still pouring outside as always. "All right dominoes!" He yelled. "Whoooo!" I yelled while lifting my arms above my head. "Drive thru or eat inside?" He asked. "I don't think I can get this thing wet,soooo,drive thru it is." I said. "Welcome to dominoes,we can make your pizza less than 60 minutes." Said an annoyed voice. "What would you like?"Chris asked,facing me. "A pineapple pizza with pepperoni." I replied.

"You like that?" Chris asked with a disgusted look on his face, "yep,with ice cream,Nutella,and Oreos." I replied "I thought you can't eat that stuff." He said while smirking. "Why would you think that?" I asked. "Well you are a cheerleader." He said. "How do you know that weirdo?!?" I asked,acting creeped out. "I always we you when I'm practicing football." He said. "And also when you're on the top of the pyramid." "Awesome,it feels good to be noticed." I said with a smile on my face. "And I'm healthy,I ate a salad back in 2008." I said. He just laughed "Uuuugh,where is our food,we've been here for like an hour." I say,irritated. "Yeah,we should probably go." He said. Chris turned on the car. But before we could leave,a girl came out with two pizza boxes balanced on one hand and the other hand was telling us to stop. "Our food." I said. "Right on time." Chris said after me. "Here's your food." The girl said while batting her eyelashes at Chris. "Thanks." He said while winking at her and then grabbing the food. He was flirting back,doesn't he know this kills me inside? " would you like anything to drink?" The girl asked. "Um sure." Chris said. "What would you like?" Chris asked me. I rolled my eyes but he didn't see. I was pretty sure he forgot about me. "I'm ok." I said. "You sure?" He asked. "Yeah." I replied. "Ok then,can I have a Pepsi?" He asked the girl. "Sure thing babe." She said while winking before going to get his drink. When she came back I swear her skirt was higher than it was. You can tell she was a slut. Thanks." He said,grabbing his drink. He set it down in the cup holder. He told her to come closer. Now he was whispering to her. "Sure thing." She said while grabbing his arm and writing something on it. She stepped away from the pickup and did the call me sign with her fingers. While Chris was backing out,I saw a number on his arm. That's it. I'm not taking this anymore. I'm going to sleep for the rest of the ride.

*after the ride*

I felt a pair of arms pick me up and carry me inside. He laid me on a bed. The softeness of the covers felt good. Then there was a comfortable squishy thing under my ankle. I heard the door close and the light turned off.
