Chapter 19 - Ditched

Dear Diary,

My life's going great and I'm as happy as ever. My parents are still workaholics who prefer their jobs to their daughter, my best friends are dead, even though it's the last day of school before the summer holidays, we still have to do work and my friends are strange. So all in all my life is amazing. NOT.  The only good thing is that all my exams are over but i think i failed a few of them. Being depressed and having to study really don't go well together.

Becca and me still hang out sometimes but it's usually at, my house or the library because for some reason we're never allowed round her house. Me and john are still going out without telling anyone but it's fun. However it's sometime like he has split personalities. Sometimes I have the nice john who is all caring, sweet and funny. Treats me like I'm fragile (which is sweet but can be annoying). But other times i get the Jerk side of him. The John whose mean, thinks he's better then everyone, doesn't talk a lot. This one is the one John uses when he's in a crowded place with loads of people. He uses it mainly at school. Lots of girls think it's hot. But the thing is when I'm around he uses it way less.  I've barley see him like that it's only when one of my friends talk about that i know.  And when john is like that in front of me he'll suddenly stop and give me this sad/scared look which I think is very cute and he goes back to being calm. It can get very confusing sometimes. Recently i've been getting this feeling that both John and Megan Becca - really need to stop thinking her names Megan - are keeping a secret from me. A big one but that can't be because

I cursed under my breath as i looked at my broken pencil. I sighed and reached in my bag for my pen. I was in my Religious studies class and i got so bored i decided to write in my diary. Miss was downing on but i had no idea on what because i couldn't be bothered to pat attention. Sam was next to me asleep. I was surprised miss hadn't told her off already. But i couldn't blame her. Sam HATES this class. I was about to keep writing in my diary when i noticed there was a not on my desk.

-What are you doing after school?

I smiled as i noticed it was John' handwriting and replied

-library with Becca and her bro Ethan

- cancel

-why

-I'm taking you out  

- I don't know

-I'm not asking you, I'm telling you, I'll meet you at the front

- Fine then

- Cool, see you then

We carried on the rest of class like that writing notes and talking about the most random thing. One point it got to us talking about purple monkeys dressed as pineapple doing the funky chicken. Don't ask.

It was then end of the day me and Becca were walking from English to the library. I felt tired and like I'd forgotten something but I just couldn't remember. Me and Becca kept walking talking about how lame school was and what we were going to do for the summer holidays. We were talking our time because we weren't in a hurry for the librarian to keep telling us to be quiet or that we actually needed to do some work. As we got to the corridor that had the entrance to our school library Becca stopped talking and looked toward the door. I turned and Saw John leaning against the door looking bored. Crap. I was supposed to meet up with him. That's what I'd forgotten. Oops.

"I can't believe you ditched me Amy. That really hurt" John said with mock sadness.

"What are you doing her Caballeros?" Becca said coldly

"Getting my friend Amy, What else?"

"No Amy's staying with me; you're a bad influence and can't be trusted"

Oh man. I thought their hating on each other had stopped. Urgh...

"This coming from you Jones who has he fr-"

"Shut up! Like you can talk when you were assigned to -"

"Watch it Jones or-"

"Or what, you'll try to get us again"

Both of them looked about ready to kill each other and they had this chilling aura around them telling all my senses to run. But that was ridiculous. I swore I could hear growling really close by. I looked round but couldn't see any dogs around. Strange. Probably just a really angry dog outside and-

"Aaaaaaaah" I screamed as my feet were not on the ground any more. John had thrown me over his shoulder and was walking away. I looked up and saw Becca giving us, well probably John, a murderous glare.

"Don't worry Becca, see you soon" i tried to her an I'm-fine-smile but i think it failed because she just marched in to the library looking grumpy.

"So, are you gonna put me down"

"Nope" John said popping the "P"

"Please?"

"No coz you'll just run away"

"I promise I won't"

"Nope, plus this is your funny"

"I hate you"

"I love you too Amy"
