Reforming The Friendship

All it takes is jealousy

I told Thomas about Michael. He begged me all day to tell him about Michael. Besides he can help me with research.
No one else can know.

It's the next day. I take the bus with Liam and my sister. When we arrived in school we quickly grabbed Alex and walked to class together. Normaly we walk to class together with the other boys.

We sat down and talked about Michael.
Alex had a questioning look. She didn't know that I told Thomas about Michael.

We were really early in class. Sam, Thomas and Ben arrived. They looked surprised because we went in with out them.
"We were looking for you guys."
"Where were you?" Asked Ben softly spoken. I give a quick glance at Sam. He's looking at me. He didnt say a word.

Our English teacher comes in and we all sit down. Like normal we learned about grammar and America.
"Please go in the break and pick up your books about America. The librarian knows your names. The homework says on the chalkboard. Read until chapter 4 and answer the questions in your exercise book." The teacher commands.

In the break Alex, Thomas and I went to the library. We take our books and wrote a few notes we know about Michael on our computer in the computer room.

The door flungs open and Sam sits beside us. Butterflies flutterd in my stomach.
I quickly presses the off switch from the computer. I held my breath and didn't move.

"What's up" he says in a tight tone and I knew he was getting annoyed.
"Nothing much" Thomas says.
Sam nods slowly and looks at me with his dark eyes which gave me a shiver down my spine. I look down trying to hide my face. I feel my pulse rising.

Sam turns around and takes a seat beside me. He plops down and turns on another computer and did some typing. Alex, Thomas and I share a nervous look. Alex is biting her lip and Thomas is fidgeting with his fingers.

"What? Why are you all acting weird?" He asks worried. "N-n- nothing's wrong. We- I have to go... to... the bathroom. Cya" says Alex wobbly and scooted out of the computer room.

"I forgot. I have my purse downstairs in the classroom. Viola? Wanna come?" Exclaimed Thomas. I nod.
I stand up and grabbed my bag but then...
"Actually I need a word with Viola." Says Sam in a tight tone. Yep he's annoyed.

"Alright then. You can go with out me, Thomas." I say and give him a nod.

I turn my head. I noticed a smirk on Sam's face. His two dimples appear. I look at Thomas. He nods slowly and leaves the room.

I turn my head and face Sam. I only noticed now that his sweater smelled like woodsmoke.

"What would you say if you and me would go somewhere else." He asks me with a smile on his face. I roll my eyes.

"Where are you suggesting? Your bed?" I tease with a cocky smile.

"I was thinking maybe your bed." He says and crosses his arms. A silence appears and I clear my throat.

"What do you want to talk about?" I say and cross my arms as well.

"Oh, nothing. Just wanted to talk."

"Ok, we talked. I am in a hurry and I really have to leave now. I'm sorry." I say and I quickly grab my bag and left the room.

I looked at my schedule. The next lesson I have is science. I walk to class and I take a seat next to Liam. Alex, Ben, Sam and Thomas aren't in this class.

I take out my books and I see Liam smiling at me. I roll my eyes.

"What?" I mumbled.

"So... you and Thomas, huh." He whisperd.

"WHAT?! We're just friends. What's wrong with you? Are you 7?" I scolded.

"Geez, chill. You guys have been... really, like really close. I've never seen that with you and him before. And you know we're best friends. You can tell me every-"

"We're just hanging out." I screamed.

"Ok, ok. Sam told me to ask you about Thomas. It wasn't my idea." He said annoyed.

Wait, what? Sam?!

"What do you mean?" I ask. I tried to sound toneless.

"He... I dont really know. But it looks like he is jealous or some shit. He found out Tommy went to your house yesterday. He told me he is gonna have a chat with Tommy."

Bloddy hell.

I let out a deep breath and close me eyes.

"Good morning, class." The teacher greeted us.

________

"He said what?" Asks Alex impressed.

"Geez I actually didnt think he had any emotions. I sense some jealousy in the air" she squeaks.

"Geez. That means..." I say slowly.

"That Sam is into you." Alex finishes my sentence.

"Do you like him in that way?" She asks me nervously.

I shake my shoulders.
"To be honest, I dont know but I always get funny flutters around him. But we hardly talk so... i dont know."

Alex nods happily with a smile.

I crawl under my blanket on my bed.

"I really need a vacation right now." I cried.

Alex let's out a giggle.

"18283776789% me too" She admits.

"Gonna take a piss" She grunted and left my room.

I took out my phone. A text... Michael.

"You have 24 hours. Alex + Liam= POOF"

I let out a big fucking sigh and let my heavy neck fall on my pillow.

"ALEX" I screamed. "TIME FOR ACTING!"
