It's Impossibly Love

Chapter Six

Alice's POV:

There are so many people.

I don't like it.

Not just because I'm not a huge fan of people, but it's also making it very hard to find who I'm looking for.

I don't know why I'm looking for this person it's like my brain is automatically just scanning the student body.

I honestly have no clue what I'm going to do when I do find the person. Probably just-

There. There's the person.

I see Jay walking towards me making sure he looks everywhere else, but me until he finally is about three feet away.

"Hey I-I'm sorry about last night..I overreacted and I didn't even have a good reason...well actually I did have a good reason....you..you just know it so I should've been...yuh know-"

"Hey Alice!"

Someone, Nate, just interrupted Jay.

"H-hi" I say turning my attention to him even though my mind is still on Jay.

Was he really apologizing?

I'm glad it makes me feel a whole lot better... I hadn't realized how sad I was being on his bad side...

"So can I get your number?"

I must've zoned out...Nate just asked me for my number! No ones ever done this.

Of all things to do I glance over at Jay.

Why did I glance at Jay?!

I thought that I'd regret doing so, expecting to see Jay with a sarcastic smile or laughing.

Jay was giving Nate a death glare. Was he...jealous? It looked like it...but there's no way. I feel butterflies in my stomach. Wait, why?! Then the feeling is gone.

He looks at me, smiling, giving me an "Are you serious?" kind of look.

What? Is he too good for Nate too.

I give him a sneer and smile at Nate.

"Um...sure. Here." I get out a pencil and rip a piece of paper writing my number on it before giving it to him.

I glance at Jay and he's just staring at me a bit shocked.

Good.

I begin to walk away expecting him to follow me, to tease me or something, but there's nothing.

I turn around, but he's gone, already walked away. The only person left is Nate who waves at me so I smile back awkwardly before turning around.

The bell rings.

Sheet...

Yes. Sheet.

I run to my class trying to act as if I've been there this whole time, but the teacher notices.

"Alice why were you late?!" He says glaring at me.

My face turns red and I try to think of a good answer.

"Office. Now. You'll get work in there for this class I'm sure."

My face is noticeably a tomato as I get up to walk out of the class, my eyes landing on Jay.

He'd be laughing at me or grinning as if he won, but he just follows the teacher with his eyes. No expression.

My heart drops.

Why?!

And why does this this make me feel worse then going to In School Suspension?!

I walk out hoping to forget these crummy feelings. Think about Nate not Jay.

Jay doesn't like you and he's mean.

Nate likes you and wasn't too bad looking.....

This shouldn't be such a hard choice.
