Elizabeth Jensen woke up on Valentine's day morning smiling. She had so much love in her life, and today was the day to celebrate it all. She rolled over on her bed and hit a hard figure. "What the fuck?" She giggled and looked up at her boyfriend.
"Sorry I scared you." Justin Foley chuckled as he rested his hands on Elizabeth's waist. "I snuck up early this morning. I just wanted to tell you I loved you, but I saw how cute you looked when you were sleeping, so I couldn't wake you up." The girl's cheeks heated up as she rested her head on his chest. "Two years ago today, we went on our first date." She smiled as she nodded. "It's crazy how so much has changed since then. I actually got you to like me."
"I liked you way before that." She traced circles around Justin's chest. "I just didn't want to admit it because of how much of an asshole you were."
Justin ran his fingers through Elizabeth's hair. "That's fair." His expression changed. "Uh- I need to tell you something."
"Okay?" Elizabeth sat up so that she could look right at him. "What's up."
Justin looked down at his hands. "I don't think I can bring you to the dance tonight." Elizabeth furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. "There's a meeting for a support group tonight at the church Kerba told me about."
Elizabeth nodded, taking Justin's hands in hers. "Yeah, do whatever you need to do. Did you want me to go with you?"
"No." Justin shook his head.
"Okay. I'll just go with Isabel."
The two then proceeded to get ready for school and left with Clay to go to Liberty High School. When they had just walked inside after being checked by the security guards, Clay's phone started ringing. "Are you still getting those calls?"
Clay looked at the pair, flustered. He brought his phone to his chest before he spoke. "Uh- No, this is jut- uh- this is Ani. But, I- uh- I gotta take this. I'll catch up with the two of you later." Justin and Elizabeth nodded, watching Clay leave them alone in the hallway.
"That was weird, right?" Elizabeth asked, looking up at her boyfriend.
"Yup." Justin spoke as he walked over to Elizabeth's locker, leaning against the one next to her's. "That was really fucking weird."
Elizabeth unlocked her locker and opened it, throwing her backpack inside. "I'm starting to get really worried about him. What is it about these calls that are freaking him out so fucking much?"
"I have no idea." Justin snaked his arms around Elizabeth's waist. "But don't worry about that right now. Today is Valentine's Day. It's a fucking happy day."
