Hidden Secrets (Jelena)

Chapter 8

After class ended, Isaac and I walked to my locker together. He had slipped his hand into mine and intertwined our fingers. It was a cute gesture. Something I wasn't used to. There was something about the way he caressed my hand with him thumb and the smile on his face was so genuine.

"FUCK!" Isaac yelled suddenly, letting go of my hand, "I just remembered I have to discuss an assignment with one of my teachers."

He leaned over and gave me a quick but rushed kiss on my lips. I offered him a smile as he pulled away and rushed off to find his teacher. I looked around the crowded hall, unsure of what I should do. My next class wasn't for another hour or so and I know for a fact that Taylor has class right now. As I debated on what I should do with my free time, I spotted Katie in the busy hallway.

I walked over to her, "Katie!"

"Hey!" She answered, "What you up to?"

"I was supposed to spend my break with Isaac, but he ditched me, to talk to a teacher."

"You want to hang out with us?" Katie said.

"Yeah, sure" I smiled.

I followed Katie as she led me outside the door. We were now outside, and I spotted Luke and Justin sitting on some chairs.

I took in the warm weather, thankful that it wasn't cold.

"Hope you guys don't mind if Selena hangs out with us today," Katie said to them.

"Of course not," Justin smirked.

"Let's go," Luke announced and took Katie's hand in his. I didn't bother asking where we were going.

I followed them out to the parking lot, as Justin pulled out his car keys from his pocket, unlocking a beautiful, black, Audi.

Wow.

Luke and Katie claimed the back seats of the car, leaving me sitting in the passenger seat, next to Justin.

"This is a really nice car," I stated, taking in the leather seats.

"I'm glad you think so," Justin smiled, glazing his hand over the steering wheel, feeling the texture of it.

As Justin pulled out of the parking lot, I cringed at the sounds I was hearing from behind me. Katie and Luke were one of those couples that are too comfortable with making out anywhere and in front of anyone. The passion was evident in their relationship, but I couldn't help but cringe at the obvious kissing sounds that filled my ears.

I fumbled with the buttons of the car, attempting to figure out how to turn on the radio, Justin grew frustrated as I failed to figure it out. So, after pressing the wrong buttons three times in a row, he grabbed my hand and guided it to the correct place. I pressed it as his hand strictly holding my hand in place. He was hesitant to let it go so I took it upon myself to bring my hand back to my lap.

"Thank you," I said.

The only sound to be heard was the music and still occasionally some kissing sounds from the back seat, mixed with Katie's giggling and Luke whispering things. I didn't bother to pay attention too closely to figure out what he was saying.

I studied Justin's face as he drove, eyes on the road as he softly hummed the tune of the song playing. To say the least, he was attractive. He looked over at me for a brief second, making it apparent that he had caught me staring at him.

To not seem like an idiot, I decided to spark up some conversation, "So when did you get this car?"

"I got it on my 18th birthday." He replied.
