.Chapter Twenty-Two.

                I stood on the curb, waiting for Blaine to pick me up. 

        All day, I avoided Zack. I didn't know what to do, or what I'd say if he asked about the cut on my face, and even worse- when Blaine would ask about it. I suddenly felt someone tap on my shoulder and a shiver went down my back. I was scared to look and see who it was but I slowly turned around to face the person; it was Sam! 

        "Hi!" Sam greeted cheerfully. I breathed a relieved sigh. I thought it was April, the girl that hurt me. "What's with the fearful face?" She asked. 

        "Uh, nothing. Do I look like that?" I asked, awkwardly looking down at my shoes. She giggled and gave me a hug. 

        "Don't be so tense, I promise I will be with you." She smiled. I shook my head. 

        "No, I don't want you getting bullied, though!" I said quickly. 

        "Awe! That's so cute that you care about me! But don't worry, April and her gang of friends wont mess with you if you hang out with me!" She said gleefully. How can she be so calm over this? "By the way, what are you doing this weekend?" Her head tilted to the side as she looked at me in question. 

        "Uh, I don't think anything." I said hesitantly. 

        "Greet! Then you'll come hang out with us this weekend!" She cheered and jumped up and down. Everyone was looking at us and I put my hands on her shoulders to keep her calm. 

        "Alright, yes! I will, just stop dragging attention!" I hissed. Sam just giggled at me. In a way, she reminded me of Madison, my best friend. Suddenly, a Blaine's car honked in front of us and Sam opened the car door. I gasped and tried to stop her but she shoved a piece of paper in my hand and all her belongings. 

        "Hi! I'm Samantha, I'm very pleased to meet Ayame's boyfriend~" Her voice was squeeky. Blaine looked dumbfounded as Sam started to talk about this weekend, I was about to pull her away in embarrassment but surprisingly two hands rested on my shoulder. 

        "Ayame!" It was Zack's and I froze in horror. 

        "Z-Zack!?" I gasped. 

        "Whoa, what happened to your face?" Zack asked, leaning in closer to look at it. I covered my face quickly and leaned away. Sam suddenly pulled me into the car and pushed Zack away from me. She took her belongings, put the piece of paper in my pants pocket, and winked.

        "Ayame is very busy at the moment, please, Ayame wear a seat belt and tell your boyfriend to drive safe!" Sam shut the door and waved at us. I was speechless and so was Blaine. As we drove away, I looked back at Sam and Zach. I saw her talking to him and I sighed loudly. I hoped she wouldn't tell him, I totally forgot not to ask her not to tell anyone. Then I froze. It was silent in the car. Crap, I forgot about Blaine. 

        I slowly turned towards him. 

        "Ahaha, yeah, I'm so sorry about that." I laughed quietly and rubbed the back of my head. We came to a red light as we drove down the road and Blaine put his head on the wheel. What!? "Blaine, what's wrong!?" I gasped and reached over to touch him but then I saw he was laughing. Ah, he was laughing? 

        "You have very outgoing friends, Ayame," He smiled. I awkwardly looked out the window. 

        "Ugh." My head rested against the window, my face burning with embarrassment. I can't believe Sam just lightly said Blaine was my boyfriend. He grabbed my hand and entwined our fingers together. I looked towards him.
