I turned around and was faced with Jai. Fuck. I tried to cover up but soon realized it was pointless. "What are you doing here?" I hopped out of the pool and wrapped my towel around myself. "I needed to talk to you." I nodded and Jai sat next to me. "me and Ashlee, I don't really know about it" he nervously spoke, inching back a bit. "what?why?" I asked. "I feel like she doesnt truly love me anymore" Jai said, a tear rolling down his cheek. I didn't know what to do. Do I hug him?comfort him? no because im practically naked. "she loves you, Jai. She just has to trust you again, she doesnt trust people easily" I rubbed his shoulder. He nodded and stood up. "um thanks im gonna um go now. thanks again" Jai walked away. "and by the way, Luke's only dating Michelle because she threatened him." I nodded and kind of threw a little party in my mind.
Luke didn't want to date Michelle, she was just forcing him. But what would she threaten him with?
*next morning*
"HAILEEEYYYY!!" Ashlee yelled from across the hallway. I nodded my head, embarrassed.
"Jai just confessed to me that I am his one true love" Ashlee spoke in a tone, as if from a fairytale. We walked in the direction of our next class, english. "were those his exact words?" I giggled. "no, not exactly but it kinda sounded like that" I laughed and pushed her. "oops sorry!" Ashlee yelled, cringing. She had bumped into the new guy at school, whom I did not know. We walked away and I pushed her up against a wall. "who was that?" I pulled away, trying to calm myself.
"his name is Aaron, he's new, why did you have a little crushhh?" Ashlee taunted. "no, absolutely not" I hid my smile. We walked into the classroom and found Aaron sitting in my seat. I gave Ashlee a nervous look. "go over there and talk to him." Ashlee pushed me. I rolled my eyes and walked over to my desk. "you're In my seat" I blurted out. I closed my eyes in embarassment. Aaron smiled and nodded, getting up. "I'm sorry it's just-" "dont worry about it, ill just sit up here" Aaron smiled sweetly amd went up to the seat right in front of me.
I looked at Ashlee and smiled. "See now was that so bad?" Ashlee sat in her seat, next to me. I mouthed to her. "I said he was in my seat" Ashlee giggled, as if mocking me. "Hey um, Aaron, have you had a tour around the campus?" Ashlee cocked her eyebrow. "no not yet why?" "becuase my good old friend, Hailey could show you around" Ashlee winked at me. Aaron turned around. "would you mind?" I shook my head. "thatd be nice, thanks" Aaron smiled, revealing his perfectly straight teeth. I melted in my seat, but looked at Ashlee and flipped her off.
