Chapter 29

It was Monday morning, and the atmosphere was melancholic. Yesterday me and the others had gone to administration first thing in the morning to give our full stories. 

The only part we left out about that night was that Casey sold the drugs. Yesterday was nerve-wracking, especially when Lucas went in by himself to talk to Dean Carter and a police officer.

 I could tell he didn't want to be there. He was abnormally quiet. It was worrying. Even when it finally got to be my turn, it felt like the questions went on forever. They were ridiculously thorough, but I was glad for that.

 It meant they wouldn't go easy on Ethan. Lucas and I had spent the rest of the day in our room. We didn't do much. We caught up on assignments. We didn't talk much either. It was a bit of a low day and I knew he needed some space so I didn't bother him. 

Now, the two of us found ourselves in the waiting room outside of Dean Carter's office once again. We were alone. I didn't have to be here. I already gave my statement, and so did the others. Now, Lucas was supposed to be finding out what was going to happen next. They didn't need me here, but I wanted to be here for Lucas. 

The only two people called in were Lucas and Casey. Ethan, in true douchebag form, went straight for accusing Casey of selling him drugs.

 Yes, he was telling the truth, but I hated him for it. He just can't help but cause more problems for everyone. 

Casey was in talking to Dean Carter now and had been for a little while. I looked at the despondent Lucas who was staring into space. "I just want this to be over." He sighed. I was with him there. "It will be soon." I assured him. "Hm...hopefully." He mumbled. 

The same saddened tone he had been using since the incident was still there, and it pained me to hear. I put my hand over his, holding it. "Are you doing okay? You haven't really been talking much." I asked. He looked at me, giving a small smile before shrugging. "I've been...alright, I guess. Then again I haven't really seen anyone." He said. 

That was the truth. The walk to administration was a short one and people didn't usually hang around here, so we hadn't really been with the main population of the school, so we had no idea if what happened was still the hot topic. 

No doubt it was. 

"How do you feel about all this?" He asked. "Pissed off." I replied quickly. "No, I mean...like...you saw the picture, right?" He asked nervously. He sounded so vulnerable. "Barely, but yeah, I did." I said honestly. He looked down at the ground. 

I was well aware of his insecurities and reservations about his body. "You're perfect in every way. You don't have anything 

to worry about." I told him. I blushed, feeling a little bit silly for being so openly sweet when I never used to be like this. 

It was totally worth it to see the genuine, shy smile that formed on his lips. He was beautiful when he smiled.

 I sighed deeply, knowing I was so far in love with him it was actually scaring me. 

Before either of us could say anything else, the door opened and out walked Casey with Dean Carter following behind him. I let go of Lucas's hand before Dean Carter could see, not that he would even care. 

I really had to try to get over this fear I had of people finding out about us. No matter how hard I tried to push it from my mind, I couldn't shake it. Sometimes I wanted to scream from the rooftops that I had the most amazing boyfriend in the world. 

Other times I just wanted to glue my lips shut after being ridden with anxiety about it. "Mr. Ramirez." Dean Carter said, gesturing for Lucas to go through the door. Lucas looked at me, once again giving a half-hearted smile before getting up and going through the door.
