8th Period

26

Two week time skip
Still feeling guilty about what I did to Ryan, I tried to brush it off the best I could and tried to call Luna. She kept sending me to voicemail but I could see her posting all over social media. She went to NewYork with Taylor. How she has the money for that? I have no clue but I miss her and hope she comes back. My parents are back and won't be leaving for a while, causing me not to see Ryan very much. I've only seen him in school for the past week. I graduate soon though so I hopefully will see him more often.

I woke up Wednesday morning, two weeks before graduation. I took a shower and got ready for class. I walked into the kitchen and my mom met me with a smile. She hugged me and offered me a cup of coffee. I accepted and sipped on it while making myself a blueberry bagel. I left soon and got in my car, calling Ryan. We talked on our drives to the school every morning.

"What if we didn't go in today" I said not wanting to go in and hoping we could spend the day together alone.
He murmured "why?"
"Well I won't be able to see you after school and this weekend I'm not sure if I can make up something. So you could call in and say you have an emergency and won't be there."
"It doesn't really work like that."
"Please, for me" I said in a sweet voice.
"Fine I'll see what I can do. Just meet me at my house." With that he hung up and I smiled.

After twenty minutes I pulled in his driveway and grabbed the necessities out of my car: my phone, puffbar, and bowl.

I unlocked his door and made myself comfortable. I called the school and told them I had a fever and wouldn't be in class today. After, I cleaned up around Ryan's house. He had dirty dishes and overflowing trash. I cleaned everything and made his bed. He came home about a half an hour later with coffee and donuts from Krispy Kreme in his hands.

"You know me so well." I said with a smile taking the coffee out of his hands.
"I know." He said kissing my cheek and bringing the donuts into the kitchen.
"Thank you for cleaning, I've been really busy and didn't expect you to come over today."
"You're welcome." I paused. "So what do you wanna do today?" I asked.
"Well I mean we could go back to bed, it's still early." He said with a pouty face, I could tell he was still tired."
"Okay fineeee." I said bringing my coffee and belongings upstairs.

I followed him upstairs to his bedroom. He quickly took off his shirt, and got under the covers.

"I just made that bed you know." I stated rudely.
"I know, but we could mess it up together, if you know what I mean."
"I hate you." I said taking my shirt off and jumping in the bed.

We finished in about an hour, I rolled over onto my back and reached for my bag.

"Do you care if I smoke?" I asked grabbing my bowl and showing it to him.
"No, as long as you give me some."
"Really?" I said surprised.
"Yeah why not."
"Okay." I responded.

I grabbed my mini jar and started to pick apart the buds, starting to pack the bowl. I put the bowl up to Ryan's lips and held the lighter for him.

He inhaled the smoke and quickly exhaled with a cough. I laughed and took a few hits myself then let Ryan take a few more. His eyes were instantly red and I laughed so hard I started to cry.

"Do you feel it." I asked.
"Yeah, do you have any water." He said quietly staring into the abyss.
I went downstairs and got him bottled water and brought it up. I threw it to him and he drank just about the entire thing at once.
"I'm going to sleep now. I love you." He said in a groggy voice laying down.
"Okay I love you too." I giggled and left the room.

I went downstairs and sat on the couch hitting my vape and tried to find something to watch on Netflix.

A few minutes later I heard my phone ring. It was Carson. Him and I haven't talked very much.

"What do you want?" I asked.
"I don't know why I called, I just can't stop thinking about you. Luna came back today. She was late to first period. She didn't talk to me, I didn't want her too though. Anyways I'm starting to ramble and I have to go back to class soon but I don't know I love you." He hung up saying nothing else, leaving me alone with that information.

I took a deep breath and my stomach filled with guilt. If I could take back sleeping with Carson I would. I didn't mean for it to happen. I love Ryan.

Hours passed and soon Ryan came down the stairs.
"Am I supposed to still be high."
"It's normal if you are."
"Oh, okay." He said sitting down and resting his head on my shoulder. "You know I always knew it was you." He said softly.
"You knew what was me."
"I knew that you were the one. You know, the one for me. Like I came in the classroom on the first day and you were laughing with Hazel and Luna, and I just got a feeling. When I saw you after class coming out of the bathroom and tripped over you. I did that on purpose. I also didn't think you were cheating on your tests, I just wanted an excuse to talk to you, I did that because I'm your teacher and I didn't know if what I felt was real or not. Now I know they are and I would do anything for you, and I know I'm rambling and a little high but what I'm saying is I want to spend the rest of my life with you. We should get married."
