The Bad Boy And The English Redhead

Chapter Eleven: Someone Is Obsessed With Notes, Why Not Give Me A Text?

Have you ever had one of those days before you go to school the next day and just really not want to go? You can feel this all the time, but seriously, When you really, really, REALLY don't want to go? It could be because you really dread facing someone after an argument, or that you've got a test and you haven't revised.

For me, I have embarrassed myself by hearing something to do with Joe Hawkins, and me freezing to the spot as if I am going to do

But of course, this morning, when my mum wakes me up, I cannot go stay in the heavenly place by the name of a bed, I have to get up and get ready for school.

I really don't bother with myself, I pull my hair into a pony tail, I throw on the first clothes I see, which are a loose grey shirt, some black skinny jeans, and a usual leather jacket. I put on some leather combat boots and walk downstairs. My family are all crowded inside, and my mum approaches me, so she can speak to me.

"Can we talk privately, Lucy?" She asks me and I nod. She leads me by my wrist into the hallway and makes sure no one is listening.

"Lukas told me about how you've been freezing to the spot more, and apparently he thinks you saw Joe Hawkins even though it was Tyler Cole. I'm taking you to the doctor tomorrow."

How the hell did Lukas know I saw Tyler as Joe? I must've talked in my sleep, since I do that.

"Okay, let me have breakfast." I say, and just as I am going to rejoinder them, my mum grabs my arm.

"Tell us if anyone hurts you, baby, I am always here for you." She says.

I join my family, eat breakfast, then leave for school.

Today at school, it isn't dramatic at all, and I thank the universe for it. Drama at school is either upsetting or annoying.

I have P.E, then Chemistry, then History, then Maths (math I should really say), after that I have English, and lastly Biology.

In Chemistry, I keep on being told off for saying 'aluminium' not 'aluminum', and the teacher hates me for being English.

Ari notices my upset mood, and speaks to me outside of the lunchroom.

"You alright, Lucy?" She asks, concerned.

"Not really." I reply.

"What's wrong?" She questions and I shrug. I really don't want to tell her about the two notes I have received.

"Tell me." She says sternly.

I sigh.

She knows something's up, and I mentally face palm myself.

"If I tell you, promise to tell nobody except Keeley." I whisper and she nods. I dig through my pockets to find the two notes and when I find them, I pull them out.

I give them to her and she reads each one a few times before meeting my eyes.

"What's going to happen?" She asks.

"I have no idea, and I really don't want to know." I tell her.

After I tell her, we head back to the lunchroom and sit down in our usual spot. I act normal, as if the conversation between Ari and me never happened.

Everything is going normal until two things happen.

The three Bad Boys sit down in the three spare seats at our table. Everyone shuts up, and I look at Lukas with suspicion.

"What are you doing here?" I finally ask, and I see Matt in the corner of my eye whisper to Parker.

"I am joining my sister for lunch, anything wrong with that?" He says, and I look down at my lap where my phone is. I have a got a text from Tyler.
