*ring* *ring*
"Ugh. Jack, Zach?" I whined.
"Wassup Val?" They responded in harmony.
"We have history first, yay..." the sarcasm was crystal clear in my voice. The only classes I liked were any art electives, science and maths. Luckily after lunch I have science with Corbyn then I might skip the last class to hang with Daniel at the mall or something.
History wasn't all that bad, jeez that's a sentence I never thought I'd say. We have to study the story of Anne Frank from the Holocaust. I'm just chilling with the guys in the school yard eating lunch while braiding my hair, yet I notice Jack, Jonah and Zach staring at me funny.
Have I done something wrong?
Do they not want me here?
Why do they keep looking at me?
Have I got something in my teeth?
Is it in my hair?
I suddenly felt so insecure I raced off to the bathroom with no explanation. I got a text from Zach asking where I went. I didn't really want to respond as I needed to just be alone and collect myself. I got a call from Jonah, but I just let it ring as well as the FaceTime from Jack.
Soon I heard talking in the halls, which was unusual because no one is really ever in the halls. They're tiny and don't even have any lockers in them, it's just an endless walkway. I quietly came out of the stall and walked up to they entry of the bathrooms, hearing the voices get louder.
"Hurry up Corbs we gotta go find Val, knowing her the approach the others are taking won't be leading them to her anytime soon" I'm guessing this is Daniel bc after he said that he did his cute chuckle.
Did I just think that? No... nonsense...
"Yeah sorry man gotta take care of business if ya know what I mean" Corbyn hinted back at him.
Ewww
"Just the thought of her hey?" Daniel snickered under his breath.
"HEY! I heard that" Corbyn said coming out of the boys bathrooms. I knew this because our eyes locked. Daniel stood straight from leaning on the wall and waved his hand in front of Corbyn, then he slowly turned realising I just heard that private conversation.
"Hey.. Val..." he awkwardly rubbed the back of his neck. I couldn't move for some reason. And that's when I bursted our laughing realising Daniel and Corbyn ALWAYS tease about this to each other, just like the rest of the boys. They started bursting out laughing as well but more of an awkward one. Oh well I thought. We walked back to the other crackheads in silence. I was just in my own thoughts about who Corbyn was thinking about when he was doing his business if ya know what I mean. With whatever time we had left of lunch we just spent it using weird Snapchat filters and recording each other in weird, cute and heated moments. Daniel got a video of Zach and Jack (#jachary) arguing about who's latest ig pic was better with the kitten voice filter and flower face filter and we couldn't stop laughing our heads off.
The bell rung and Corbyn and I walked to science laughing to ourselves.
