Burning Memories; m.c.

Chapter 9

Lillian's POV

        The white light illuminated my room, as I groaned and rolled over. It was Thursday, I had my college class after school and I  forgot all about emailing my photo to my teacher. I quickly jumped up before running over to my computer and quickly emailing it. I noticed the small little one by my In box, indicating I had an email. 

        Dear Lil - J,

                       So, since we have to see each other tomorrow. Why don't we grab some coffee or something after? Maybe you can start me out on some signing? 

                                                                                                                                                Chameleon Boy

I chuckled before shaking my head and standing up. I had 30 minutes to get ready before Ashton was here. I went into the bathroom and turned on the faucet before washing my face, and teeth. If Michael and I were going to hang out I needed to dress cute. I went into my closet before throwing everything across the room, and finding my velvet skirt and a band tee. 

After paring it up with some boots and a leather jacket, I was ready to go. I double checked my hair and make up before throwing on a beanie and walking out of my room and downstairs. My mom was standing in the kitchen, Ashton was running late. 

I pulled my lunch out from the fridge, along with a water. I turned around and began to put everything in my bag, when my mom narrowed her eyes at me and waved.

"You've missed the bus."

Ashton is coming to pick me up today, I'm going to go on and stand outside and wait for him.

"Alright, be careful! I'll be working late tonight."

I nodded before throwing my backpack over my shoulder and walking out of the house. I walked down the driveway to the sidewalk and began to wait. Maybe Ashton had forgot about picking me up, as I frowned before noticing his Jeep come flying off of the hill. 

He pulled up in front of me as I raised my eyebrows. He waved before leaning over and opening the door. I quickly got in so the wind wouldn't hit me any longer as he held up a cup of Joe. I took it before looking at him.

"White chocolate mocha right?"

I nodded before taking a sip as he drove off. The water droplets were hitting against the windshield, it was going to be a cold rainy day today. He pulled into the parking lot, as I grabbed my bag and looked over at him.

"See you later!"

I smiled before nodding, and climbing out and quickly walking into the school.

        The rain outside caused lunch to be inside, and no visitors today so I was alone at lunch. The rest of the school day went by fast, as I shut my locker and walked outside and made my way to the bus stop. The bus was full, as I grabbed a seat in the back and began to write some stuff into my journal. 

I finally got off the bus and walked into the building. Michael wasn't here yet but Brea was already sitting down. I walked over to the table before sitting down next to her and smiling. 

"Hey!"

Hey, how have you been?

"Great, you?"

I nodded as the teacher walked into class. She stood next to her computer before bringing up the pictures. She began to ask some of the students what their picture's represented. I slowly turned around, Michael still wasn't there. Brea hit my arm as I turned back around, my picture was up. 

"Would you like to explain?" 

I looked at Brea as she smiled and at me. 

Translate, please?

 Brea nodded as I began to explain.

This picture is memorable to me, because when I first found this place with my best friend he use to tell me he could hear the water from miles and now when I go it's almost like I can imagine hearing it.

The teacher nodded as she flipped to another picture. I thanked Brea before l looked back at the teacher. A picture of a guitar popped up, as I narrowed my eyes. I looked at Brea before looking at her,Who's is that?

"Kid in the back, Michael?"

I looked towards the back, Michael must have made it. He was talking as he looked over at me and smiled. I slowly smiled before turning back around, as the teacher dismissed us. 

Did she give us a new assignment?

"She will email them to us, they are different subjects."

I smiled and thanked her before watching her walk off. I grabbed my bag when I felt someone tap my shoulder. I looked over, Michael smiled at me as I flung my bag over my shoulder.

"I just remembered I have to teach a class today. Would you want to come?" He spoke looking right at me as I shrugged. I grabbed my journal before opening to a page, and writing.

If I'm not going to be a bother?

He shut my book before shaking his head, "Of course not."

He reached down before grabbing my hand as I followed him to the bus stop. His thumb lighting running over the back of my hand, in small circles. This walk to the bus stop was going to be the longest ever.
