When he came

Chapter 14

I walk to my first class of the year, so exciting. I walk down the hall and find the room, as I walk in it's empty. The teacher sits and organizes her papers until looking over at me.

"Early bird huh?" She asks.

"Yeah, I guess so." I say.

I walk up the stairs and into a seat. It's an old thin cushioned one but not too uncomfortable. I hear a cough up in the back as I pick at the holes in my jeans. When I look back I see Jake, he's wearing a black t-shirt and denim jeans. His hair the same as yesterday, his eyes seem more vibrant. I gather my books and walk up the stairs to sit next to him. 

"How's it going?" He asks.

"It's going." I say. 

He chuckles, "Is your boyfriend intimidated by me?" He asks.

I choke on the air flowing through me, "Hah.... maybe." I say smiling.

"It's fine." He chuckles. 

"Yea-"

The bell rings interrupting my words. People swarm in talking and take their seats quickly, everyone's very put together. 

The class passes by quickly and I begin to pick my stuff up. Jake does the same, I begin to walk down the stairs when I collide with some one. My stuff falls to the floor and I rush to pick it up. 

"Oops!" I hear a voice laugh. 

I look up at a blonde girl in a dress standing there with her friends. I begin to pick my books up when Jake appears next to me. He hands me papers and I shove them in my folder. 

"Thanks." I say running my hand through my hair.

"Yeah, just regular bullies." He says.

"Here I thought that people grew up." I say.

He chuckles as we begin to walk toward the door. I bend down and tie my boot quickly then catch up with him. When we get to our rooms I stop at my door and look over at Jake.

"Hey, do you want to hang out today?" He asks.

"Sure, just knock on my door." I say smiling.

I walk into the room and close the door behind me. For some reason I feel slightly guilty, but we're friends. That's truly all I see him as, I love Liam. 

I plop on my bed and Kelsey walks out, I smile at her.

"Hey." I say.

"Hi, how was it?" She asks.

"It was... normal." I say. 

She chuckles before sitting on her bed, "Where's your boyfriend?" She asks.

"Back home." I say, "How did you know I have one?"

She smiles, "Sure babe."  She mocks.

I laugh while nodding, "ah." I say.

She giggles and walks over to me, "You should go out with me tonight." She says.

"Where?" I ask.

She smiles, "Just a little shop in town." She says.

I think about her offer for a minute before remembering my to-do list. I have to call Liam and Jake wants to hang out. 

"Sorry, not tonight." I say nicely.

"Okay, well whenever you're free." She says. 

I slide into bed and cover up, as I close my eyes I get warmer. 

"Hey babe!" I hear a voice call. 

I open my eyes to see Liam standing by my bed. When I launch up he has his arms around me, lips pressed against mine. He pulls away and stands in the doorway until walking out.

I reach my arm out, "Come back!" I yell. 

I scramble out of bed and to the door way to see the hall empty. 

"Hey!" I hear a girl call. 

I open my eyes and see Kelsey leaning over me. She furrows her eyebrows at me and I sit up taking a deep breath. 

"You were screaming." She says.

"Sorry." I say.

"It's okay, it's not that late." She says.

"yeah." I rub my head  remembering Jake.

"Did some one come by at all?" I ask.

"Yeah some guy was asking for you." She says.

"What'd you say?" I ask.

"You weren't here." She says.

I look at her confused. Why would she say I wasn't here, is it a college thing? She smiles warmly at me.

"Just in case, but if you knew him you could always talk to him tomorrow." She says.

I nod before laying back down and closing my eyes. I miss him so much, how am I going to do this if I'm having night mares about him? I guess I'll figure it out, as the week goes on.
