Myles and Cole

Chapter 31 | Myles

I sighed as I shut the front door.

A shiver ran down my body. I was scared of what my dad had to say. Does he accept me now? Is he angry?

It's late now, so obviously my dad is sleeping. I think my mum is even in bed.

The wait for our next conversation is killing me.

"You know..."

I jumped.

"When mum said to just get out of the house for a bit she didn't mean that you should come back home at 11:20," Mycah said.

"Oh, well we just lost track of time." I responded.

"I suppose you did, judging by the hickey on your neck."

My eyes widened. "W-we didn't really d-do anything."

"Hmmm."

I went to go upstairs to my room.

"Oh, and Myles..."

I turned back, "Yeah."

He said, "Don't worry about dad. He'll come around."

I nodded and proceeded to my bedroom.

-

"I'm scared. I don't wanna leave the car, Mycah."

We were in the parking lot outside of school and I felt sick to my stomach.

"It'll be fine. I won't let anyone hurt you, besides, rumour has it that Roman got suspended." Mycah told me.

"Oh, you sure?"

"I'm pretty positive about it- oh, Cole's heading over to us."

My head shot up and surely enough Cole was making his war over to the car.

He knocked on the window before opening up the door.

"Hey." He smiled, "How are you feeling?"

"Uh, not good," I replied.

"I figured you'd want us to walk into together. Is that okay?"

I nodded once and smiled weakly.

It was dumb of me to think that people wouldn't stare. Wasn't yesterday enough?

Cole guided me through the hallway, his hand holding onto my trembling one.

Mycah was trailing behind us keeping an eye out.

There were some people giving disgusted glances in our direction but the majority of the people just stared out of curiosity.

"How the fuck did that happen?" Was one of the whispers I heard.

"Cole, dude!"

We both turned to see Dylan making his way toward us.

"So yesterday, huh? Hectic shit, man." he stated.
