Staying Strong

Nine

     Everyday all I thought about was the kiss. Like okay we kissed and oh f*ck we aren't even dating and today's Monday and I have to face him oh my f*ck yezus help me.

I got up lazily and dragged my feet to my closest I picked whatever, a white shirt with black strips and beige pants. I walked over to Lena house with my shoulders slouched. I knocked on the door without any force.

"Hey- Ew you don't look so good." She raised an eyebrow. "Are you still thinking about Kyle? You could've texted him."

"No I'm not, I just didn't get much sleep okay?" I straightened my back and started walking normally.

"Mhm sure." Lena adjusted her backpack.

We didn't pass by Bella's house because she was spending time with Nate. We got to school and everyone was staring at me. When I mean everyone I mean everyone from the nerds to the jocks to the slackers to the artist to the preppy kids. Everyone.

"Lena.... I don't feel good." I muttered under my breathe.

"Why? Just because Kyle actually likes you instead of all these fake b-" Lena got interrupted my the speaker.

"Diana McPhee please come up to the office."

I groaned. "I'll go with you, I got you fam." Lena put her hand around my shoulder as we started walking to the front office.

I walked into the office, I hated the office. Especially the school office all you hear is typing from the computers and plus it smells like the dentist.

I just stood there for a while I traded looks with Lena but she was reading the school paper. I was looking at Ms. Arosco typing like there was no tomorrow. I sighed and started playing with the papers.

"May I help you?" Ms. Arosco asked me.

"Uhh I'm Diana, Diana McPhee." I cleared my throat.

"Ohh you, yes come over here please." She signaled me.

I opened the small, short swinging door and walked over to her.

"There's this new girl, and she asked me to get her some own to show her around you know her classes and stuff." Ms. Arosco rolled her eyes.

"Well what's her name?" I asked.

"I don't know and I don't give a rats ass. Now take her schedule and I'll call you later today when she's here!" She threw the paper at me and started typing furiously.

When Lena and I walked out of the office we tried to suppress our giggling but ended up bursting into tears of joy.
"Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed." Lena spoke blocking out her laughter.
"Okay okay enough." I calmed down, but I was still giggling walking towards where all our friends meet up.

Lena and I laughed the whole way our group of friends Lena nudged me when we were halfway across the hallway, "I try to calm down before we reached the end of the hallway before Kyle thinks you're crazy."

"Huh." I looked at the end of the hallway. I saw Kyle looking right at me with a smile on his face as we walked closer I noticed something in his eye I couldn't explain, more as if he was fascinated or dreaming. I walked up to our group and saw Kyle he started to get a little nervous I mean you could tell, but it was just so dorky I had to say hi to him.

"Hey." I smile and gave him a hug.

"Hey." His voice cracked and he cleared his throat wrapping his arms around me.

"Awww." You could hear everyone and see that everyone was staring.

We both started blushing and pulled away.

Riiiiiiing

"Can I walk you to your class?" Kyle asked me politely.

"Yeah sure but we have the same class." I smirked. Kyle's hand grabbed mine and we walked to my first period.

•••

"Dina McPhee please come to the front office." The sound of the intercom made my ears ring.

"Oooooo you're in trouble." The whole class spoke besides Kyle.

"Okay class shut up!" The teacher rolled their eyes and continued writing on the board.

I walked out of class taking a deep breath. Ugh I hope she's not a b.itch like all the others.

Most likely the new people are imminently put into the cool kid group just because they have good looks or because their eyeliner is on point.

The hallways were empty and so quiet you could hear a pin drop. I was getting closer to the door and before I could open the main door someone else swung the door open it nearly hit my head.

"What the f.uck!!" My heart was pounded and I took a step back and my backpack fell off of my shoulder.

"Sorry." He picked up my backpack and handed it to me.

"Oh Antonio..." I looked at him without saying anything else. I could tell in his eyes he was hurt. He cleared his throat and left without telling me anything else than sorry.

Hey y'all sorry this chapter is shorter than my past ones I love you all and thanks for reading!
