Chapter 26: Bombshell

¤ CB's POV ¤

"And that's all for today class! Be sure to submit your activity by the end of the week. Class dismissed," Mr. Fritzgerald announced to the class, as everyone exited the classroom hurriedly for lunch.

My heart is beating so fast, that I constantly bump into other students accidentally. "Hey! Watch it!" A platinum blonde haired girl shouted, as I caught a glimpse of her holding her shoulder.

"Sorry, Isa!" I said quickly, trying to avoid her gaze. She's from my Physics class (which is after lunch), so guess who's in trouble later? It's not like today's any other normal day anyway.

I mean, prepping yourself to confess to your crush is nerve racking as heck. And many people would say that girls don't chase down guys, but honestly where's the risk if you don't try?

I've been thinking about ways on how to confess to him, which shouldn't be that hard considering that we just saw each other earlier this morning. But what happens next is the thing that'll drive you insane.

When I entered the Canteen, everyone is at the table already (including the person who sent me to the Clinic not too long ago). I got my lunch quickly, then made my way towards them who were all chatting casually.

"CB! What took you so long?" Chica asked, as she gestured for me to sit next to her. And quite frankly, Fred was the one sitting next to me. Ugh. "Oh, I was just caught somewhere at the MA Hall, bumped into Isa by accident."

"That nerd? Yeah, didn't you mention that she's from your Physics class?" Ennard asked me, as I nodded my head slightly, making everyone at the table 'ooh' at me because we fear her as much as everyone does. "Good luck with that, CB," Mangle teased playfully, as everyone laughed.

Chica nudged my shoulder, getting my attention and making me look at her. "Uh, CB? Didn't you want to ask Kellen about something?" Chica whispered, as I immediately slapped her shoulder lightly with a laugh. "Maybe after lunch, I've had enough thinking all about it."

"Oh, looks like someone can't take someone out of their minds now, yeah?" Chica teased, as I only shook my head while biting on my sandwich. "You're making it even worse, mind you," I chuckled, as Chica just winked at me playfully.

After a while of just the friend group chatting with each other, the school bell finally rang, marking the end of our lunch. When I got my bag from my side, my stupid pen case dropped out of it.

Shit that zipper was open this whole time!? I groaned loudly, but when I tried to pick it up from the ground I felt a hand instead of my pen case. "What?" I asked out loud with knitted eyebrows.

"Shit, I'm sorry!" Freddy said while retracting his hand along with my pen case. I glared at him with crossed arms, as he took a while to realize that he has my pen case.

"I guess this is yours then," Freddy said while rolling his eyes, shoving my pen case in my arms. I raised an eyebrow.
