I do my morning routines, that's workout, cleaning and breakfast..you know when you workout you need a lot of food and now I'm rushing downstairs because I can't be late on my first day of back to school..an I can't believe I'm in my last year! Senior last year damnit must be a dream.
“Ida, you'll be late” mom calls from the kitchen, she's making her coffee. " I know mom, but.. my damn hair is tangled” I yell back. " Let me help okay?“ She brushes my thick golden blonde locks and tie them in ponytail. “Remind me to cut my hair later? Ahh I hate it when it's longer!" I huff. I always keep my hair shoulder length. Sometimes..they get longer when I'm busy..or stressed and in this case! I'm stressed. Recently broke up with my girlfriend!.
" Now go” she rolls her eyes the mommy way.
I don't have to look at the mirror. I know I look perfect with these dark jeans and dark denim jacket over my new blue jakers vest and black boots. So I hang my duffel bag on my shoulder as I pack my Lexus in our school packing lot.
The place is noisy as hell. Just as I get down from my car I get swiped off my feet by Conor, my best friend. “Hey dude!" I exclaim as he let's me down. “f*****g Jesus! You look.. yeah great..tell me you didn't.." I give him a shut up eye. Connor and I have been friends since 8th grade. He was there when I was growing up as I was there when he did the same.
“Oh and May.. I saw your w***e of an ex.. she's been all over Liam” he smirks. “Oh shut up Con, she can make out with whole football team if she wants to, I don't care" my voice quivers at last words.
Fucking betrayed by my own voice!.
“You do..but anyway, it's going to be nee-w season huh, you ready to kick Washington high's asses!!?“ He is very overdramatic and I love that. " I'm not playing football Connor” he trails me in the hallway. "but yo good man!“ He throws his hands up. I slam my locker door shut and he jumps. The worst thing about having..a boy best friend..the one who is also athletic as hell is never ending brawl about sports!.
“Hoaa! Easy there" he lift's his well built arms in dramatic surrender. “I ain't f*****g playing football, so shut the f**k up" I flare up at him and move along to my first class. Well, he still doesn't give up and I'm tempted to give him a mouth shutting punch.
“You on your.. cycle again?" He whispers and he gets what he wants..a smack in the arm that earns me an " ow" . Everyone in the class look at us. So much attention I didn't want to cause. The class is almost full, Dane Conor's team mate waves from the backseats and he'll there's the only one seat there, Connor wriggles his brows at me and darts there. Well. Am I sitting in the front???.
I have no option. Things don't go as we want sometimes.
Kitty a girl from basketball team waves at me and I see there are three empty seats. I give her my signature smile..the one which is carefree and I walk to her..but to my most annoying fucktard of a luck!.
Tana takes a seat beside kitty. Tana's my Ex! Kitty gives me sorry smile. But there's no other place I could seat. So f**k this!
“Hey" I greet. Tana looks at me shocked. We never talked after breakup. “Hi" her voice is still sweet as I can remember.
“There's no other place I could sit" I explain. I don't even know why I have to justify my actions.
Oh probably cuz you don't want to give her a stalker vibes.
“Oh" she looks at me and I swear I saw that guilt in her eyes. The moment can't get more akward as the gueen herself! Casey Henry sits to my left. Hmm. My seat is hot guys.
“Hi" I say my voice barely audible but she hears anyway.
“Hi, I could not have wanted to seat in this akward environment with schools most famous Exes but hey.. there's no place to seat!" She says in clipped tone. I look at Tana and it seems like she didn't even hear that. So Casey made sure it was only for my ears. I smirk.
“You are the Queen cheerleader, you could just tell anyone to change seats and they'll happily give their pleces with joy" she hums but doesn't say anything else. “Ofcourse..but I don't want to take advantage of some poor highschoolers weakness” she sneers and plaster the most innocent look on her natural face.
One thing I've never seen on Casey's face..is layer's of makeup. She'd just be in her lipgloss.. slight blush. But still manages to look beautiful.
Today her hair is tied in classic bun highlighting her facial features..her sharp perfect jaws..those beautifully glossed lips..her beautiful green eyes and thin round nose. She's a goddess. She's wearing pink short flower dress and this cute creamy blazer, her manicured fingers crossed over pall pencil. “Be more descreet when checking somebody out" her hot breath on my earlobe. I didn't even know I was checking her out. Someone clears their throat and I look down embarrassed. Then I grin triumphantly. Specially because I remember something.. someone's daddy is my godfather!.
“Why are you smiling?" Tana asks curiously. “Nothing to be concerned about” I can't stop grinning.
Mr Hank our math's teacher clears his throat. Hmm. I can't believe my fate! Sitting between my Ex and my whole time crush. Mr Hank is explaining how to solve some function calculus problem which I'm the best at. I steal a glance at Casey, she's so attractive with her brows drawn, her eyes sharp, he pencil on her chin most serious concentrated look on her face. Then at Tana who's having hard time understanding as I can see her familiar confused frustrated face and she's about to curse!.
“f*****g math" she sighs and I chuckle. She looks at me so fast..fast enough to get a whiplash scowl on her beautiful face. “Hartman? Can you solve the function?" My chukle gets caught in my throat as Mr Hank calls for me and from the side of my vision I could see Casey sneer.
“Sure thing" I run my hand though my ponytail and stand up.
I could feel eyes on me. But he'll I'm used to stares.
" Thank you..good job Hartman” he pats my shoulder. " You never disappoint me” he smiles. I hear a low whistle from back of the class and I know it's Connor. I smirk as my eyes meet the very green ones. As usual Tana seems proud. Kitty smiles at me and Casey's face..well is blank.
"hmm somebody got lucky” she says. Taunting huh?.
“Ever heard of maths genius?" I throw her a dirty smirk. She rolls her eyes.
