The Other Side Of Fear

Chapter 2 suprises

*Janie's P.O.V*

When I walked in the bathroom she looked like she was going to shit herself.

"Jesus you scared me half to death!" She said and I burst out laughing. "Wait.." she looked me up and down.

"You checkin me out?" I said and she held up her thumb and index finger for the sign of 'a little'.

"But seriously, why aren't you beat up?" She said and more blood ran down her nose.

I looked down at myself, untouched. "Well, before she could come down to the other bathroom I got free. I tried to run up and save you, but you were gone."

"Oh...thats ok." she said and turned around shoving a paper towel up to her nose.

"What did they do this time?" I asked and she winced a little. When she told me my heart sank. "Shit! Are you ok dill pickle?" I said her nickname I gave her and a smile grew on her face.

"Yeah I'm alright, well I'm fine now so that's good enough."

"Hey we better get to class." I said and she nodded. The bleeding from her nose stopped. When we parted and walked different ways I turned around and yelled. "See ya later dill pickle!"

She turned around and flipped me off and I smirked. A teacher peered out of their room and shushed me. When he went back in I flipped him off and whispered 'fuck you'.

I walked into choir class and sat down into my chair. The teacher was taking roll and didn't see me walk in so I was safe.

"Janie!" She called.

"Here!" I said and raised my hand. She nodded and I put my hand down. Every one was too busy talking that they didn't notice either. So I just got out my phone and started tapping at the screen texting Mary.

I felt a tap on my shoulder and looked to my left. I saw beautiful hazel eyes that I could stare at all day. My crush had tapped on my shoulder, a shiver went down my spine. My heart started beating faster.

"Nice save." he grinned.

"With what?"

"Sneaking in here." he said and I let out a little smile.

"Thanks." I said and I could tell I was blushing. I tried to hide it. I'm not used to talking to him. We rarely do, we barely even interact.

The only time we do is when I bump shoulders with him while putting our folders away.

He turned back to the four girls standing over him. They started running their fingers through his hair. They would flirt with him and it really got on my nerves.

He didn't really seem to pay attention to them. A lot of girls liked him and he was used to all the flirting.

After class we put our choir folders away and I bumped shoulders with my crush.

As I walked through the door I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned around and saw a guy with brown-blond hair and hazel eyes. It was my crush again.

"Hey can I talk to you for a moment?" He asked and I nodded. He walked towards the door that led outside and I followed.

My heart was beating so fast and so hard I swear he could hear it. I was trying to get my breathing under control.

When we finally stopped he turned and tried to avoid eye contact, and I did to.

"Um I uh...I want to tell you that.... uh...well it's....I just..." he took a long pause then said as if he was forcing the words out. "You are the only girl that doesn't flirt with me 24/7 and your not always all over me. And I....I think your cute, and I like you. A lot, and I was wondering if you...like me back."

He let out a shaky breath and looked up at me. I was standing there dumbfounded. My mouth was hanging slightly open. My eyes were wide open.

"Well?" He asked and I couldn't help but grin widely and pull him into a hug.

"I have liked you ever since 7th grade." When I said that I thought he was going to laugh and say I was pranked. Instead he hugged me back. Holding me so tight I didn't think he was going to let me go. But I wasn't complaining.

"Same here." he whispered into my ear and a chill went down my spine. I rapped my hands tighter around his neck and he rapped his tighter around my waist.

We didn't let go for what seemed like years. It ended when I heard the bell ring.

"Shit." I whispered and he chuckled. I pulled away and looked into his eyes. He stared back into mine.

"Um I have to go."

"I know." he said and pecked my lips. I couldn't help but smile.

After school I ran up to Mary to tell her the news. I saw her in the hall and ran to her.

"Buddy!" I yelled and she turned to look at me.

"What?"

"First off, why don't you ever get scared?"

"I don't know I just don't." she said grinning.

"Second, you know my crush."

"Oh ya, Lucas."

"Ya well I kinda found out he likes me too."

"What!" She screamed grinning making heads turn towards us.

"Um...can we go somewhere private?" I asked and she yanked me by the arm walking towards the exit. The cold of the outside air stung my skin.

She stopped and looked at me grinning. "Sooo...?"

"Well he talked to lme after class. And he just told me."

"And then..." she said excited.

"And then we hugged....and kissed a little." When I said that her jaw dropped.

"What's it like a peck, or a make out session?"

"He just gave me a quick peck." I said and her face lit up. Then quickly a worried look spread across her face. "What?"

"L-Lucas is Sarah's crush." when she said that my stomach did a flip.

"Well let's not let that bring us down." she nodded then looked up. A giant grin grew across her face. But she wasn't looking at me, she was looking behind me.

When I was turning around I felt two hands grab my waist. I was dipped and when I looked up I saw Lucas leaning in. He crashed his lips against mine. I rapped my arms around his neck.

Mary made a puking noise and I flipped her off. She chuckled and I continued to make out with Lucas.

"Uh...um guys? You should probably stop." she said, a worried tone in her voice. I shooed her away. "No seriously." she said the worry growing in her voice.

Before I could look up I heard a big gasp.

"You bitch!" I heard Sarah scream. I quickly looked up. I could practically see the steam coming out of her ears.

She ran at me and I ran the opposite direction. I normally wouldn't be scared of her but she can fight....really well. I don't know if she's a mutant or something, but it's scary.

"You're dead!" I heard her scream. But I didn't doubt what she said, not one bit.
