Chapter 7

I was back in school and at my locker stuffing things in my bag. I didn't want to be back here, but what choice did I have? This was not the year to be skipping school, but I wouldn't mind skipping with Carson. All the flirting we've been doing since he's been back had me thinking maybe he did really like me. How wonderful would it be if he asked me out? I mean, I wasn't expecting it, but I would hope he would. He's been calling me babe, and kissing me, not to mention he skipped school just to be with me. If that wasn't telling me everything right there then I don't know what will.

I closed my locker and was happily greeted by Violet. She looked a little furious with me because I didn't show up to school yesterday. Granted it wasn't my fault because we went out bowling and I kind of got lost in my drinking. Had we not done something I wasn't good at, I wouldn't have needed to drink. Besides, it gave me extra time with Carson.

We started walking down the hall and she started yelling at me. That's the last time I leave her at school by herself.

"How dare you not show up to this hell hole and leave me to die!" She screamed and I laughed.

"Vie, it was only one day. Besides, I was with a special someone." I tried to change her mood so that she wouldn't stay mad at me. I also wanted to tell her I think Carson was falling for me.

Her expression softened and then she smiled happily. I figured when I mentioned I was with Carson she wouldn't have continued to be mad at me. That's all we ever did was talk about them. whenever something new happened we just had to tell each other. Nothing new exactly happened, but I still thought it would be a great idea to inform her. I also didn't want her to keep yelling at me. She'll only make me feel bad about leaving her here.

She sighed. "Okay, I guess I can let you off the hook." She agreed. "So, are you getting closer to telling him?"

I shook my head. "How could I? Our friendship means more to me than some relationship. Although it would be nice to be his girlfriend." I said just thinking about it. I bet he would be even sweeter than he is already.

Violet laughed at me and the bell ringed as well. She was ditching me to leave to go to class since the dumb system decided not to give us a class together. So, regrettably, I let her go because she needed her education. I wasn't finished talking to her about Carson, but I guess it could wait till lunch. Of course, if he didn't eat with us today, it would be hard to talk if he did. Still,I really needed advice on what to do. He was flirting with me and tomorrow night we were going to go somewhere special. What if he asked me out then? That would be so cute, I got excited just thinking about it.

As I rounded the corner, I saw something that I never in a million years thought I would see. It was Maisie and not just Maisie. She was talking to Carson. I hid myself behind the wall and just stared at them intently. They were laughing and touching each other like everything was just okay. Well it was not okay! She had her greasy paws all on my man! He wasn't supposed to want that. I was the one who he was supposed to want. He was talking to her like he doesn't know what she's been doing to me. Ugh! I felt my blood boiling hot staring at them like this. It was not cool!

Still watching them, She moved a little closer to him and I couldn't make out what she said, but he nodded his head in agreement. They started walking the other way down the hall and turned the next corner so I couldn't see them anymore. That little witch was really going through with her plan. I can't believe she was doing this to me. I didn't pay her any attention at the bowling alley like I should have. I never expected Carson to fall for her tricks. She was a sneaky little...

"Looking for someone." I heard a voice speak to me and it caused me to jump in shock.

I turned to see who it was and it was someone I didn't recognize. He seemed familiar, but I couldn't pin point his face. From the looks of it, he realized who I was because he wore a smile on his face. He also laughed at me because I was scared when he saw that I jumped. Yeah, it was real funny that he scared me while I was spying on some one real important to me. I couldn't let him fall in the witches hands.

I rolled my eyes and smacked his arm. "Don't sneak up on me like that and who are you anyway?" I asked him not wanting to be rude because I didn't know who he was. It's not my fault.

He sighed and bowed his head. "Wyatt Jones, Savannah." He sounded disappointed that I didn't remember who was right away, but when he said that name I completely remembered who he was. Oh gosh, I embarrassed myself in front of him. Yikes, not a good first impression.

Damn, he's still as hot as he was when I saw him at the bowling ally. Puberty can really do a lot for a person. I mean, this guy was so ugly way back when. Now he was smoking hot and he was the quarter back of the football team. Not that, that mattered anyway, but it sure did do him justice. Him being in my presence made me a little nervous. No one as hot as Carson ever came to talk to me. I was actually getting flustered.

"Oh, right. You saved me back there." I smiled nervously. I wasn't purposefully trying to embarrass myself in front of him. It kind of just happened on it's own. His blue eyes were so mesmerizing.

He chuckled. "Yeah, it was no big deal." He shrugged his shoulders. He was clearly pretty shy which I thought was kind of cute. Carson wasn't the shy type. When he wanted something he went after it.

In fact, I've never been so nervous around someone other than Carson. It was like I was a whole different person talking to Wyatt. He was so cool and collected. Everything he said was so nonchalant like he was just real chill. I wasn't used to his personality type. I used to be like him once before, but I had Violet and the others to break me out of that. Being around Wyatt made me revert back to my old ways. Why did he have to be so damn hot?!

After the awkwardness subsided, Wyatt cleared his throat and looked at me rubbing the back of his neck nervously. I thought it was really cute how nervous he was getting around me. He must have really wanted to take me out. Seeing as Carson was going to be busy with that hussy, I might have to take Mr. Wyatt here up on his offer.

"So um, before Carson pulled you away, you never answered me." He reminded me about going out for lunch or something.

I smiled and nodded my head. "Hmm, if you mean during lunch then yes, I would love to grab something with you." I wasn't flirting with him. In my head I was getting back at Carson. He kind of betrayed me by talking to Maisie. He clearly wasn't happy when I was talking to Wyatt at the bowling ally so this would be a taste of his own medicine.

Wyatt's nervousness melted away and his pretty blue eyes lit up. "Well, I guess we can grab some ice cream to be back on time." He suggested.

"Oh you know me so well already!" I said excitedly. Ice cream was my weakness.

He chuckled. "Although, next time I want to take you somewhere better. Not during school time." He said happily.

"Depending on how this day goes, then I'll see to it." I said cockily, but I was joking.

Excited for my little date with Wyatt during lunch, I walked my way to class finally and got called out for being late. It didn't matter to me because I was going to rub this in Carson's face. He wanted to talk to Maisie, then I was going to talk to his quarter back. He knows how much Maisie tried to humiliate me on so many occasions. Then he just goes and starts flirting with her. I wasn't too happy about it and even though it was petty, it was going to make feel better. He better be lucky I had a massive crush on him because I would be way more furious than I was.

Right now, I needed to focus on Wyatt. He was really looking forward to this and I didn't want to disappoint him. I was going to make this the best little date for him.
