Story Of My Life

Chapter 4

Our lunch went by pretty fast now I understand why they said when your having fun time speeds up, sigh. He was really funny and to my surprise I didn't embarrass myself he made me feel comfortable enough to talk to him, when he saw I was anxious he calmed me down and let me tell y'all nobody and I mean nobody could calm me done but myself, he must be something. On our way back to school he said "you're really cool compared to your sister", I was taken back because I never mentioned to him about my sister, right then I starting panicking I was sweating and shaking all I could think about is the terrible things she must of told everyone about me, I questioned myself, does everyone in school know about me? Oh god the things they must think, ughh. I tried so hard not to cry, "cat got your tongue", thank goodness we arrived at school as he said that, my only thought was to bolt and never talk to him again. As I was about to make a run for it, he grabbed my hand, "hey you okay?" And with that I could not hold back my tears, "did I say something, I'm so sorry", he then took his seatbelt off and hug me. I could not help myself, in that moment I felt all the hurt and trauma flooding back to me, eventually I started shaking so bad, "hey hey it's okay, I didn't mean to make you cry, please relax" he said with sympathy in his voice. I took a deep breathe and calmed myself down, we sat in silence as he continued to hug me, he reached into his glove compartment and got some tissues to wipe my face, "I'm not here to judge you, I didn't think mentioning your sister would trigger you that wasn't my intentions at all, but I can see why she is jealous of you Sarah" , "she isn't jealous of me" I said in a soft tone, "trust me she is, all she does is spread rumors about you from the first day you came here", my eyes swell up with tears again, "no no don't cry" he said wiping my tears, "you must think I'm such a whore", he practically burst out laughing. "No I don't, I had to meet you myself before I can make that judgement, everyone else probably thinks that but to me you're the sweetest girl ever" he said smiling ear to ear, I couldn't help but blush, "how do you know that we just met" I said under my breathe, "that's true but I'm a good judge of character" he said confidently. I bursted out laughing, he looked at me in awe as I laughed my head off, "I'd do anything to hear that laugh and see that beautiful smile any day", I was caught off guard, "really?" I said a bit confused, " of course, you're the first girl I met that didn't throw herself at me, I like that you're headstrong and confident" he said with a smile. "Thank you" I smiled back, we talked for a while longer until the bell rang, "I'll walk you to class", I got to my class and he kissed my forehead and left, instantly I turned red. I thought to myself could this finally be it for me? Ughh it's only been our first "friend date" he seems like a sweet guy, I sat in class and let my thoughts flow as my teacher lectured about a topic I already knew. After school I saw him waiting by my car, "hey beautiful" he said with a smile, "hey, what are you doing here?" I said trying not to sound harsh, "I was thinking we could do something after school if you're not to busy" he said while looking like a nervous wreck, I thought to myself is he officially asking me out? Ha it's my first time seeing him nervous, wait it's the first time I'm even meeting him, wow a lot of first, I kinda like it,quickly I snapped myself out of thought and answered, "sure you can come over to my house, we can finish our homework and chill", "that sounds great" he said obviously relived. He got into my car and we left, "where's your car?" I asked a bit concerned, "Joshua took it home for me" he said, I knew Joshua from my math class I hadn't known they were friends, clearly he had seen I was lost in thought and said, "Joshua has been my best friend since birth, our mother's met at a yoga class and since then they have been friends", "that's so cool, I wish I had a childhood best friend, growing up all I had was myself", I said in a sad tone. "I was wondering what happened with you and your sister", he said with a questioning look on his face
