Playing The Role Of Amaya Green

Chapter 15

Amaya POV

The shrill noise of the school bell, signaling the end of the period, snapped me out of my thoughts.

Ha.... finally.

This period had been excruciatingly long.

I gathered my books and went to my locker, putting them inside. I shut my locker to find the smiling faces of two creepy people staring right at me. Those being my two besties.

Huh..... how nice of them.

"Woaaah...... you guys scared me!"

Like literally, I just had had a mini heart attack.

"That was seriously creepy guys!" I exclaimed. Why do I always get such locker creeps??!!?

"And here we thought you'll appreciate us waiting for you to go to practice together," Nancy sighed.

"Anyways, let's go girls. We have cheerleading practice to attend," Krystal announced, giving both of us a weird look. Probably because we had been bickering.

*

Our routine cheerleading practice came to an end with the ending notes of Dua Lipa's- One Kiss. It was a very complicated and long one as the song was very upbeat. I went towards the bench with my water bottle.

The football practice was going on. I saw Aiden on the field, playing with the other team members. All the seniors were standing around the field..... giving advice to all the players. All..... except Dustyn. He wasn't there.

Well, that was weird.

Shaking that feeling out of my head, I got back to practice once more.

*

Our practice got over soon. I headed to the locker room to change out of my cheerleading uniform. The football practice had also gotten over. The jocks were gathered outside the men's locker room, discussing something.

"Dustyn seems to be a little out of it, doesn't he? After that breakup?"

There was a chorus of yeah's.

"Yeah dude... he wasn't even there at school today and also missed football practice!" Once of them spoke.

But then they saw me. And stopped talking right away when they did.

Not wanting all of their glares on me, I just hurried and quickly got into the girls locker room. And got lost in thought.

So Dustyn hadn't come to school today? I mean, I hadn't seen him today at school. But I just guessed that he had just been avoiding me after yesterday's incident. But weirdly enough..... I had still been a little worried enough to notice he wasn't there.

"Hey Amaya you okay?" Nancy asked me, interrupting my thoughts, as she and Krystal entered the room.

"Yeah, yeah I'm fine," I lied, "Come on let's change and go."

"Here you go. Have a nice day!" I said to a customer.

I was at the coffee shop, working my shift. I looked at the watch. It was only 3.45. Huh..... that meant I still had an hour left for my shift to end.

But that also meant that Aiden was late. We usually walked together from school. He sat at the table in the left corner and did his homework or something while I worked. And after that we'd go to drama practice together.

But today..... he hadn't been waiting for me after school, like he usually did. So I had just come here by myself, thinking that maybe he'd come later.
