✅ In The Shadow//WDW ✅

The bus ride was very boring seeing Anna had to get driven home from school because she had a doctors appointment

I go on my phone for my final minutes of freedom with it when my bus gets to my stop

To prolong the time until I get home I take the long way walking back

I eventually get home an hour later than I normally would if I went the original way

When I get inside Jonah looks worried

"Oh my god Alyssa where were you I was getting worried"
"I went the long way" I say throwing my phone at him
"Are you really mad at me"
"I'm not in the mood right now Jonah" I say pushing past him and going up to my room

Of course I'm not mad. There's nothing to be mad at I'm just annoyed

I make my way to my room and i bump into Zach

"Sorry" he says with a soft smile
"Didn't I say not to talk, look,  touch, come near, smile and breathe near and at me."
"I didn-"
"Whatever just get out of my way" I say rolling my eyes and going into my room

I go in my room and stare at the wall for a little bit when I get a knock at my door

Before I can say don't come in Corbyn's in my room with a game in his hands

"What's that" I say sitting up
"A board game. I thought maybe it'd be fun to play just like we used to" he says sitting on my bed

Before the band was even thought of, whenever either me or Corbyn were upset or bored we would play a board game together

After the band was created we stopped and we slowly lost our bond

I was the only girl and he was the only mature boy not taking care of the others so we were very close.

I miss that it was always fun

"Sure which one is it" I ask smiling
"Candy Land of course!"
"Okay I'll play"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After playing the game a few times it came down to
Me- 2 ; Corbyn- 1 with me as the winner

"Ha I won!"
"Aw man next time I'm going to beat you" he says putting it away
"Thank you for playing with me"
"No problem are you happy?"
"Yeah"
"Good" he smiles and leaves my room

I realize I should probably get supplies for my first real day tomorrow so far I only have a 3 subject notebook but I got a few lists from my teachers of stuff I have to get

Before I ask one of the boys to take me to get the stuff I make my own list with things that I'll use for all my classes together and things for them separate

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I make the list and go downstairs to hopefully buy the stuff

I walk up behind Jonah on the couch and tap his shoulder

"Yeah" he says turning around
"Sorry I've been rude to you" I say
"It's okay you're just going through a lot with having to start high school"
"Yeah speaking of... I have to get a few things for school" I say handing him the lists I made
"We can go after dinner okay"
"Okay" I say smiling and walking back to my room
