tragical romance | bryles ♡

chapter seven - "too late."

it was the start of a new week. i had taken about a week and a half or so off of school because of what happened with daisy but i decided that i can't live in the past. of course it's hard but i know daisy would want me to push through it so i am.. i also know that daisy would want me to apologize to myles - which i'm doing.

i picked out my best dress, after all my second day of school would be just as important as my first day, but of course i didn't know that yet. anyway, it was a beautiful blue and white dress, moms favourite of course. then to top it off i had left my hair in braids last night so today it's all curly! plus my mom put a blue bow in my hair to make myself look even more fancy.

once i got to school i immediately went into the classroom basically on a hunt for myles. i really wanted to make sure that he knew i was genuinely sorry. it was out of character for me to act the way that i did - i guess when you aren't around many people your age it's hard to connect with them.

he was sitting in his seat, using his pencils as drumsticks, i laughed a little and watched him from afar as it seemed like he was playing an encore song for his 'crowd'. i made my way over and sat beside him, "hey," i smiled a little, looking at him.

he looked back at me in return, a slight confused look on his face, "good to see you back?"

i nodded, "i'm glad to be back. now can i talk to you?"

mrs andrews made her way over, interrupting our conversation, "miss nolet?"

i sighed a little turning my direction to her, "yes mrs andrews?"

"you have some work for me correct?"

i looked at myles then back at her, getting up out of my seat, "yeah, i'll be right back," i went over to my cubby and looked through all of my papers while mentally giving myself a facepalm.

i was so close to finally apologizing to him and stupid mrs andrews ruined it over dumb homework.. i'm starting to get why hanna says she hates school. it seems to interrupt you at the worst times.

after handing in my work and making my way back to the seat beside myles she decided to start the lesson. i was so annoyed because i simply just wanted to apologize to him - but i guess it can wait until lunch.

cut to lunch, it's finally here. time to talk.

he was starting to get up as i quickly put my hand on his arm, "got a sec?" i looked up at him as he nodded slightly, sitting back down. i took a deep breath, "i wanted to apologize to you. i was really over the top and extremely dramatic.. so i'm really sorry for my actions."

"i appreciate your apology briar. it shows character and i admire that," he smiled a little then got up, "i accept it."

i smiled, standing up as well, "amazing. want to have lunch together? i'd love to get to know you, as a friend you know."

"sorry blondie but i.. have other plans," he went over to hanna.. wait blonde? wait hanna?

so many thoughts were going through my head as i watched them talk. of course they would be dating. that's why she defended him. that bitch, i hate her.

sorry for my language i'm just really mad. myles is like my nemesis and hanna is supposed to be the sister i always wanted but she betrayed me? wow. how could someone even do that? to their best friend too?

disgraceful. i'm done with her.

i made my way out to the cafeteria. i looked around, hoping to find some lonely person who wanted to replace hanna. then i found james.. he seemed interested in me before, maybe he still was?

he marched his way over at me, he clearly saw me staring, "hey babe," he smirked.

"hey.. hot stuff?" fuck i'm so awkward.

he chuckled and put his arm around me, "come eat lunch with me?"

i nodded, "i'd love to," he lead me over to his table. he introduced me to all of his friends.. not that i cared. but he honestly isn't even that bad. i mean he's kind of cute, he's an ass but i think i could change him.

after a while of random conversations between myself and all of his friends, he leaned in for a kiss.. i've never kissed anyone before. i was so nervous, but i just went with the flow? i guess it wasn't that bad either because it kept going for about a minute. i blushed as he kissed my cheek.

"you're cute, do you know that?" he pulled me closer as i laughed a little.

"no," i shook my head then looked forward to see myles.. he looked angry? but he hates me. he's with hanna. he's probably just a regular asshole and i'm just finally realizing that.

maybe that was his resting bitch face. either way, after that lunch time i decided that i was over myles and hanna. it was all about james now.
