iLOVE YOU (You Series #2)

Chapter 59

This morning, I had a lot going through my mind. But I wanted to forget it all for a moment.

It still baffled me how my life got to this point. I was expecting a happily ever after but it turned out having the boy of my dreams only brought unforeseen circumstances into my life.

I was either lost in thoughts these days or moody or angry or a little happy. I wondered why it couldn't all be happiness all through.

The thoughts of running into him at school made me a little sick in the stomach and at the same time, it made me a so much happy.

I missed him all through the weekend and now that I was thinking about him, I missed him even more.

I wanted to know if he was fine. I wanted to hug him and taste his lips. I wanted him that moment. I wanted to see him so bad.

But the fact was that I couldn't let myself because I still wanted him to feel remorseful and stop thinking that bursting out on people would make things better. I wanted him to stop being angry all the time and see the world differently.

But thinking about my conversation with my mom, I just hoped that he was fine and hadn't done something stupid again.

"Don't you wanna get down?" Max's voice snapped me out of my unending reverie and I let out a deep sigh. "Are you daydreaming about your boyfriend again?" Max jokingly said and I rolled my eyes at him. "Just go talk to him and have a make up sex already"

My eyes went wild in shock as I just couldn't stand another second of his presence. I couldn't believe my brother would say something stupid like that.

He must think so low if me, to have that stupid thought in his head.

Grabbing my backpack from my laps, I forcefully opened the car door and hopped down from the car.

Apparently, all the boys in my life were assholes from the planet of mars. Or should I say assholes of mars.

"You know you can't wait to..." before he could finish, I cut him off by slamming the car door shut and I couldn't hear the rest of his gibberish.

I wasn't ready for anyone to ruin my day before it started. But somehow, I had a bad feeling from the depth of my gut that it was about to get ruined.

I began to walk towards the school hallway, my head raised up so high that I wasn't ready to let anything bring me down today; Even though I kept having that scary thought at the back of my mind that today was going to be another hell of a day.

Maybe I was just overthinking but I couldn't help but feel that way.

Almost, getting to my locker, I could see someone—a boy, standing by it but I couldn't really figure out who it was because he was looking down and typing away on his phone screen.

I got a little closer and I discovered it was a boy, Jake, from my chemistry class.

Immediately he noticed someone was standing by him, he looked up before keeping his phone away.

"Hi Jake" I said to him with a smile as I adjusted the strap of my backpack on my shoulder.

"Hi Alex" He replied with a gentle smile as he adjusted his glasses. Jake was one of the cool, brilliant and shy ones that I knew in school. He was always quiet and never in any trouble whatsoever. "I brought your note" He added quickly like he was in a haste to leave.

"Okay" I said. I had borrowed him my note over the weekend and I didn't even remember.

He hurriedly let down his backpack from his shoulder and started looking through it. While I waited with my arms folded, my eyes darted to the end of the hallway and I could see Bryce walking down the hallway, his bitter eyes sprouting daggers at me. Without hesitation, I looked away before I would die of his death glares.
