Crossing Lines [Completed]

Ch. 24 Gibberish

It might just be me but I feel like this story is going so slow. I apologize if you all feel the same way! I promise things will start going faster

After the weekend was over, I was a little on the happy side. I love weekends but sometimes there's really nothing to do around here. I used to hate the thought of going to school so the weekends were my getaway.

Ever since I met Tory, I became bored out of my mind during the weekends. Ok, maybe not the moment I met her but when I found out she liked me, then I started liking school.

After Chase ran inside the school, I couldn't help but smile at him. I was happy for him and after meeting Patricia, I knew she was a great girl. I could tell she wasn't like the others at the school and that makes me happy to know my brother isn't going to get hurt.

Ayden greets me as we walk into the building. I saw Jamie leaning against my locker and when she see's us, she smiles.

"My two favorite people."

As she leans off the locker, I unlock it then grab my book before shutting it. Looking over at them, Ayden had his arm wrapped around her shoulder and they both looked at me.

"We have something to tell you." Ayden smiles.

My eyes flicker between them and I smile. "No way. You're dating?"

Jamie nods as Ayden runs his hand through his hair. "Yes." She smiles then wraps her arms around him. "We hung out this weekend and.." She looks up at Ayden before looking back at me. "we kissed."

I stared at them as I was genuinely happy for them. I couldn't believe it. "Holy shit, that's cool!"

Jamie laughs as Ayden was turning a red color. "You're making a scene."

I watch as Jamie leans away from him. "Bitch, I am a scene."

I laugh at that before looking down the hall past them and seeing Tory walk through the doors. My heart beat quickened as she was looking through her folder in her arms.

Looking back at them, they were talking so I averted my eyes back towards Tory. She was looking at the students that were standing around their locker then her eyes found mine.

She smiled and I returned it before she walked down the hall and into her classroom.

When the first bell rung, we said our goodbyes and I headed towards History class, ready for fourth.

-

When fourth rolled around, my nerves were all over the damn place. I couldn't wait to see Tory and the excitement was real. It's crazy how just a few weeks back, I thought of her nothing more than a teacher. When I found out she liked me, I was a little confused and maybe a part of me liked her as well but it wasn't strong enough for me to act on it.

Now that we're basically dating, I couldn't help but get this gibberish feeling inside my stomach when I'm around her.

To be honest, I'm not sure what we are yet. This is only the start and we had our first date Saturday.

Speaking of Saturday, I forgot about that party Regina invited me to. I haven't see her around the school yet so maybe I can avoid her until school ends.

Walking into Tory's classroom, she was at a desk helping a student with something. He was sitting with his textbook open and she was standing in the front, pointing at something in the book.

I walked past her and made sure she noticed me as I sat down in my seat. We made eye contact but she didn't hold it for very long as she looked away the first second.
