They don't know about us

Chapter 12

Annie's pov
It's been 1 month since Brennan and I's breakup. I've moved on the slightest bit but it's still really hurts. I sit on my bed and think about him. I hit shuffle on my music playlist to try and get my mind off of him. The first song that comes in is 'Summer Love' by one direction. I tear up, seeing as it completely suits Brennan and my relationship.

you were mine for the summer,
now we know it's nearly over
feels like snow in September but I always will remember

I stare at the ceiling, thinking about our summer love. I sit up and turn off the music. I sigh, I try and change my mind to a different topic. Tomorrow's the first day of school, ugh. In the middle of 6th grade, I started going to public school. Now are the times that I regret it, I have to see Brennan tomorrow. I get my backpack ready for tomorrow, it's so full that I can barley close it. I change into my pajamas and get in bed. I close my eyes, thinking about what tomorrow could be like.
~the next morning~
I wake up to my alarm going off. I hate Mondays, especially when it's the first day of school. I get out of bed and get a shower. The warm water feels good on all of the knots in my muscles. After washing my hair, I get out and wrap myself in a towel. I plug in the blow dryer and start to dry my hair. I then get into a a flowy white top and skinny jeans with white sandals to match. I go back into the bathroom and do my makeup. I'm not really trying to impress anyone so I go for a simple mascara, light eyeshadow, eyeliner, blush, and lipgloss. Curling my hair only takes about 15 minutes and I'm downstairs just as Caleb is going to leave. Seeing as he's my ride to school, I grab an apple and run outside, slinging my backpack around my shoulder. I hop into his car and we drive to school. He puts on the radio and we start singing along. We laugh at how bad we both are. The laughing dies down and suddenly 'They don't know about us' by one direction comes on. I immediately change the station and sit there in silence. Caleb looks confused, seeing as he doesn't know about the song. The rest of the car ride to school is silent. We get out of the car and I give Caleb a hug before heading inside to my locker. I open my locker, placing my books as well as my backpack into it. I take out my science books and head to the classroom. As I'm walking, I see Brennan's locker is only 3 away from mine, great. All of a sudden, Arden comes up to him and kisses him, really hard. When they pull apart, Arden smirks and Brennan looks at me with regret in his eyes. I walk faster and look down, trying to hide the tears in my eyes. I sit down in my seat and patiently wait for class to start. Right as the bell rings, Arden and Brennan walk in, of course. I avoid Brennan's eyes as they sit down. The teacher comes in and starts talking about something that I have no interest in. I start to doodle hearts in my notebook. Arden, who's sitting behind me, leans up to my ear and says, "That's over hun, Brennan's done with you. You can stop trying now" I turn to Brennan with tear filled eyes. He looks at me but I shake my head and turn away before he can say anything. I raise my hand. "Yes, uh..... Julianna?" the teacher says, looking at the seating chart to find my name. "May I use the restroom?" I choke out. "Sure, take a pass" she replies, pointing to passes at the front of the room. I grab one and walk as fast as I can to the bathroom. I hear footsteps behind me, running. "Annie wait!" Brennan.

Annie walks out the door really fast and it looks like she's about to cry. Ugh, I can't stand this anymore! I miss Annie like crazy! I'm done, I'm getting back the most important thing in my life. "Um excuse me, I need to use the bathroom" I say, walking to the door. "Um okay, take a pa-" the teacher starts, but I'm already out the door before she can finish. I look back and see Arden mouth, 'Don't do it' I ignore her and keep speed walking. I see Annie down the hall and sprint towards her. "Annie wait!" I yell to her. She turns around just as I reach her. "What do you want Brennan?" she asks, annoyed. "The same thing as you" I reply. She looks confused. I grab her face and press my lips against hers. After a few seconds, she kisses back. We kiss passionately for a good 2 minutes. When I pull away, she says, "What's going on Brennan? 20 minutes ago you were in love with Arden and now you're kissing me?" "Look Annie, I'm not supposed to tell you this but," I say. I look around and pull her into the janitor's closet. "Look, I never liked Arden" I say to her, my face inches from her. I fight the erdge to make out with her right then and there. She looks extremely confused. "Okay, Liv made me do it. If I didn't, she would take things to extreme levels and ruin our lives. Trust me when I say I did it to protect you. But I honestly don't care anymore. I'll do anything for you. Let Liv ruin our lives, we just won't show our faces again. We can move, somewhere far, together. Whatever it takes to be with you. I love you Annie" I say, staring into her eyes. She looks at the ground, taking in everything I just said. I lift up her chin and give her a passionate kiss to assure her I'm not kidding. She looks into my eyes. "You're asking me to run away with you?" she asks. "Uh, yeah kinda. I understand that we're young, but until you're 18, well just stay hidden. Please Annie, you don't know what the hate is going to be like" I explain. She takes a breath. "Okay, let's do it" she smiles. We walk out of the closet. "Wait, what about school?" she asks. "Uh, we could homeschool again?" I say, rubbing the back of my neck. "Okay" she smiles again. I smile back. "Let's ditch this place" I say, we both laugh. We collect our stuff from our lockers and take my car back to my house. I throw our bags on the couch and kiss Annie softly, but passionately. I could get lost in this moment forever. Her hands go around my neck and she starts to play with my hair. I smile a bit into the kiss as my hands reach up to her face. My thumbs rub over the soft skin of her cheeks and I forget about everything else in the world. The only thing that matters in the world is us, right now.

Brennan and I kiss for what must have been 6-7 minutes before we pull back for air. We breathe heavily and rest of foreheads together. "I love you so much Brennan, never leave me" I say. "Never, I'm hear till the end. I promise" he smiles. We sit down on the couch and Brennan puts on the tv. His hand slings over my shoulder and I rest my head on his shoulder. "Should I text Caleb? Maybe we could get everybody over here tonight. Your parents are still on that business trip right?" I ask him. "Yeah, they are. Who are you gonna invite?" he replies, looking into my eyes. "Well I was thinking of inviting Sydney, Luke, Justin, Rachel, Abby, Alex, Caleb and Katie. What do you think? Too many?" I ask. "Sounds perfect" he smiles,  kissing my forehead. "Great! So, 5:30?" I say, kissing his nose. "Fine with me" he replies. "Cool, thanks babe" I smile at him. "Anything for you princess" he gives me a kiss. I smile, pulling out my phone. I absolutely love when he calls me princess. It makes me feel special. I start inviting everyone over. By 3:00, everyone has responded with a yes. I can't wait!
Don't worry, the next chapter is more exciting:) It will hopefully be up later tonight!
