chapter seven.
[7] "MY HEART PULLED A GYMNAST"

My eyes fluttered open due the the morning sun light falling through my blinds, I sat up adjusting to the light—Moments of last night immediately flood my head. I couldn't sleep at all. My mind wouldn't stop taking me back to him and it beyond bugged me.

I won't lie, not after the apology and after my heart literally pulled a gymnast act yesterday—he's, well, you can say that he's growing onto me. He had been for the past week actually but yesterday..

Yesterday got me overthinking like shit, I admit. There was a certain feeling of safety and trust laced in the tension of the atmosphere. Plus the little hint of slight care just added to it.

It was new to me, new between the two of us and I could only wonder if he felt it too.

I sighed as I dragged myself out of bed only to spot his jacket which rested on my desk. Everything literally goes back to him and god,

I hate it.

༄•✧

Half the day had passed and I hadn't seen Johnny even once today.

Did he not come to school?
Why didn't he come to school?

It was lunch time and I walked over to my table. The day escalated pretty quick and well, I'm not complaining.

I sat down, the girls giving me smiles before they continued their previous conversation, "Mrs.Daniel doesn't even know how to spell wrecked and she claims to be an English teacher." Kenzie rolled eyes, her elbows rested on the table as she played with her food.

"Well at least you don't have seven projects due next Friday."

"Seven!?" I butted in, "School started last week."

"Exactly." Lauren groaned. "This is a crime,"

I paused for a minute, "Hey and um have you seen Johnny?" I questioned quick and reluctantly. A smile appearing on Kenzie's face as I did. She's surely something else.

"He's sick so mom told him to stay home," She explained and my eyes almost widened.

He's sick?
He's sick because of me!

I'm basically the one who got him sick??

I shouldn't have forced him to stay out yesterday but then again he did offer a danc—god why did he even listen to me!?

Also did I mention the Mrs Meredith is a doctor...?

"That idiot decided it would fun to stay out in the rain yesterday." She continued and the only added to my pile of guilt. "Why?"

"Huh?" I looked up at her, "Oh um I think we might be having a test later this week..and I guess I could use a little help." I trailed off.

"I wish I could tutor you instead of him." Lauren stated, sulking into her seat.

"Too bad your too busy being productive unlike the rest of us." Kenzie laughed. It was true, Lauren went to classes right and left.
