Pamela's POV
I tried to unlock my locker but then I realised it was already opened making me remember that Mackenna asked me to keep it open but take out my valuable items.
I frowned when tons of cars fell out of it, reminding me it was Valentine's day. I read about three and all of them which were wishing me Valentine's days and also informing me as the secret admirer. A particular one stated it loved me for my intelligence and that was kind of heart warming and smile worthy.
I gathered them all into my backpack and rearranged my locker. I shut the locker and gasped when I saw Nathaniel almost an arm's length away.
He held and bunch of red roses neatly wrapped and a box of chocolates and I assumed they were for Belinda. But, his face was emotionaless, as he walked towards me and gave me the items.
Did he just.. buy me a gift?!
"Don't feel too good about yourself. My mum told me to give these to you. They're from her." He said but nonetheless, I showed appreciation. I smiled a little because the roses were real and I saw his cheeks redden a little.
I blushed too and nodded my head.
"Thank you," I whispered and opened my locker to put in the chocolates since the roses couldn't fit. I made a mental note to stop by Mrs Demen's.
Nathaniel was still standing there and it seemed he was blocking my way.
"Um..any..anything else?" I asked looking anywhere but him.
"She also said you should escort me to the party." He said. I had no clue about any part or whatsoever and it was something I hadn't planned for.
Besides, Mrs Demen said I 'should' she didn't say I have to. And going somewhere with Nathaniel was going to be really awkward because I was sure Belinda too was going to be there.
No way!
"Um..I'm not coming to the party. Sorry." I murmured and passed his side to go to class. On my way I saw posters and flyers and a whole lot of red and white.
With the flower in my hand, I went to class sat and took out some cards from my bag to read. Some messages were just sweet and heartwarming and a few were obnoxious. I discarded the latter one and drew out my notebook too study.
I learned the roses next to my table and smiled again,
Students came in one my one and Mackenna too was among them. She slid next to me with a wide grin
"Has anyone asked you to the party?"
"What party?"
"The Valentine's party tonight." She sighed.
"I might not go.." I trailed off and she rolled her eyes and I giggled
"How many cards did you get?" I changed the topic.
"A lot but the one that mattered was from Angelo." She pouted,"To make it more sweeter, he gave me roses and a box of chocolates." She sighed,
"Nathaniel too..but he said it's from his mom." I said,
"Mom?" She asked. "What colour were they?"
"Red?"
"And he told you his mom gave it to you through him?" She asked.
"Yes."
"And you believe him?" She giggled.
"Yes.." I drawled a little.
