“So, are you doing okay?” I asked Emily as we walked towards our lockers so we could grab a few things for first period.
“I’m seventeen and I’m pregnant.” She said in a crabby tone. “Does that sound like I’m okay?”
“Em, I was just saying how are you doing with everything. Chill, I didn’t ask you to tell the whole word your pregnant.” I said quieter than she had.
She looked around the hallway to see if anyone had heard her loud voice. “Oh my god, was I too loud?” She whispered.
“Yeah, but it doesn’t matter. Your stomach wont be that small anymore. The whole schools going to find out.” I told her as we made it to her locker. I stopped and waited as she grabbed a few books out of her locker and held them against her stomach.
“I know, and I have to tell Caleb before someone else does.” She said with a worried expression on her face. She closed her locker and we both started walking again, towards my locker.
“So, it’s Caleb’s baby for sure?” I asked and as soon as those words left my mouth, I realized how bad they sounded.
“Of course Lexi, I’m not a slut.” She glared at me and bumped into me purposely.
“I’m so sorry. You were just really drunk that night and-”
“It’s fine.” She whispers quickly when she seen Courtney and Brooke walk up to us. Who knew these two would become best friends?
I looked at her up and down. She changed so much, it’s like it’s not even her anymore. She became a girl just like Brooke. And I have no doubt that Brooke gave her that makeover. She’s changed to the worse possible. Her looks and her personality changed.
She was wearing a short jean skirt and a tight pink crop top that squeezes around her curves. She even had heals now. And to add to that, she has a ton of make up on.
“What are you wearing?” Emily asked her, looking at her in disgust.
“Something that makes you both look like trash.” Courtney smirked as she flipped her blonde hair behind her back.
“Totally, you guys dress like hobos out of the street.” Brooke said from beside her.
Emily and I just stared at Courtney. The Courtney that used to be our best friend and Brooke’s enemy.
“I just came to say-” Courtney said but paused for a second. “Have a nice life without me losers. This is the true me.” She said and bumped my shoulder as she walked passed me.
Both Emily and I turned around to look at the two bitches walking away, swaying there hips at the process.
“I can’t believe it. She’s changed into a monster.” I said as I glared at Courtney’s back.
“Yeah, and she’ll stay that way. We lost our Courtney.” Emily said, shaking her head. “But at least you got the guy.” Emily added as she glanced at me.
I couldn’t help but smile. “Yeah, it looks like I got the guy.”
I got the fairy tale ending. Sort of. He didn’t exactly ask me to be his girlfriend or anything…
I was walking towards the lunch room by myself since Emily said she needed to run to the bathroom. I suggested I go with her but she said I shouldn’t because I’ve been doing that ever since I heard the news. And I don’t even know if I should call it good news or bad news. It’s probably bad news because of how much she cried and how young she is to be having a baby. I bet she doesn’t even know anything about pregnancy. But it feels terrible to call it bad news, knowing how she’s holding a human being inside her.
While I was walking to lunch, I noticed that I was getting a lot of looks from people. Specifically girls. Weird looks, disgusted looks, and a few smiles.
I ignored the looks, but still was very curious. I guess it’s just because of the Courtney spread a nasty rumor about me. It couldn’t be because I was into Tyler now because they already taught we were dating.
I was just too tired to think. I’m so tired it’s like I just could fall asleep right here walking. I didn’t get to sleep good for the past few nights ever since I was stuck in the whole Emily situation. And the Tyler situation too.
But when I seen his face when he was walking towards me with a heart melting smile, my tiredness just flew away and my heart was flipping in my chest.
“Hey.” He said and turned around so now he was walking with me instead of walking towards me.
“Hi.” I said shyly. Why was I being so shy around the guy I knew since childhood? I have no fucking idea.
Maybe because I just changed into this person as soon as I realized that I loved him.
He grabbed my hand and stopped walking, making me stop as well. We were like a hallway away from the lunchroom and the hallways were now empty because of how slow I walked and the period had already started. It didn’t matter how late we got to lunch.
“So, I was thinking if you wanted to go somewhere out with me?” He asked, no sign of nervousness in him. He was just so calm about everything.
But me, I was nervous as hell. Did he just ask me out on a date?
“Where?” I asked, not being able to stop myself from smiling like an idiot.
I was now standing with my back pressed against the wall, still holding Tyler’s hand. He was so close to me, it made it hard for me to breath. His face was slowly moving towards mine, as my eyes darted towards his lips. Those perfect lips…
“Anywhere.” He whispered before slowly pressing his lips against mine.
At that moment, I didn’t care if a teacher will come out and see us or if the security cameras in the hall spots us. All I could think about was Tyler and the kiss we shared.
The kiss started to heat fast when his tongue entered my mouth. He let go of my hand, giving me the opportunity to put my hands through his soft hair. When I put my hands in there, it’s hard pull them always. It just feels so good.
When we pulled away to breath, he looked at me in the eye. “Lexi-” he started but didn’t let himself finish.
“What?” I asked.
Before Tyler had the chance to speak, a teacher passing by in the halls walked up to us. “Aren’t you guys supposed to be in class?” She said in a disturbing voice. It’s like when you pitch your nose and then when you talk it comes out weird. That’s how her voice sounds like.
“Lunch.” Tyler and I said simultaneously.
“Well I don’t thing this is the lunch room.” She said rudely. “Now get going.”
I rolled my eyes at the old teacher and we both walked towards the lunch room but before we got there Tyler stopped in front of me, making sure that the teacher was out of sight first, then looked at me.
“I love you.” He said his beautiful blue eyes staring right at my brown ones. He said it in a way that sounded like he just wanted to tell me already.
My heart stopped for a second and I just started at him, not able to speak. I was just surprised. Tyler Evans loved me? I probably looked ridiculous with my mouth hanging open. But I only realized that when Tyler put his finger under my chin and closed it, also bringing it closer, and higher so I was directly looking at him in the eyes again.
He smiled, noticing my reaction to his confession. My heart was just jumping up and down, dancing in happiness.
I smiled and this time, I’m the one who kissed him. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pressed my lips against his. “I love you too.” I whispered when I pulled away but kissed him again.
Who knew something that amazing can happen in a school hallway?
