I don't own anything
The Plan
Dear Diary,
I can't wait for today to end. First I had that same dream that I've been having, more like a nightmare. Then Talia comes by when I'm in the shower and takes Aaron, Sara, and Naomi to school and leaves me to walk. Not like the day can get any better, I have detention this afternoon, my first detention. It's all because of Trish who just couldn't wait till after class to hear about my horrible nightmare that she already memorized. I know that any normal teacher would just leave me with a warning, but it was Mrs. Clarkson , she is horrible. Did I forget to mention who else was late to class, therefore also has detention, I did. Well, it's Austin, my crush. I know this would be great news, but you know that I get nervous around him. Like that time in lunch when I bumped into him and he asked for my name and I said Dawson Ally instead of Ally Dawson,. He probably thinks I'm a freak, and it really doesn't help that he's Dez's best friend.
Anyway, I think Aaron has a crush on a girl, at first I thought he was going to prank a teacher or something, but everything clicked. He hasn't gotten himself in trouble in a long time and he started taking showers every day, he actually smells good. Not only that, but yesterday when I went to pick him and Sara from school he was talking to a girl, and he looked a little nervous. I know my brother and I'm 100% sure he likes that girl . Now all I have to do is know who she is.
Well, I have to go now, I'm starving and it's lunch.
Love,
Ally
As I looked from my book, I was greeted by my sister Naomi, she's a freshman.
"Hey Ally, I have a question" She said
"Shoot!" I said
"Well, would it be okay if I get a ride with Ethan" She asked nervously
"Ethan, you mean popular Ethan" I said, she nodded
"No way he's a jerk and he's senior and…" I started telling her but she cut me off
"Too late I already agreed, so just leave without me" She said
"Actually, I have detention this afternoon" I said
"You and detention I must be dreaming" She said shocked
"Mrs. Clarkson" I said, she nodded.
Everyone in this school knows about Mrs. Clarkson even the people who never stepped a foot in her class.
"Ok! Bye" with that she left.
"Attention students! There is an assembly arranged tomorrow at 7:30 AM, so make sure you come early" Principle Thomson announced through the microphone.
'Great just what I needed' I thought
I went back to eating my French fries. I don't know what to do about Naomi, I need to talk to Trish.
"Hey Ally" Trish said, as if she heard me.
"Hey, You're right in time I need to talk to you" I said as soon as she sat down.
"Well, if it's about you getting detention I already know and don't take it personally it's just Mrs. Clarkson, you should've known this day would come" She said
"Ummm… this is not what I was about to tell you. Wait how did you know about that" I said
"I have my ways, anyway what did you wanna tell me?" She asked
"Ethan offered Naomi a ride home" I said
"Ethan as in popular Ethan" She said, I nodded.
"No way he's a jerk and a senior…" she started but I cut her off, this sounds like the conversation that I just had with Naomi.
"Too late she already agreed" I said
"And you let her?!" Trish said confused, she knows how much I hate Ethan.
"What can I do about it? I have detention to go to, remember" I said
"There must be something we can do" she said thinking. I looked at her and she had a very serious look, this look didn't last long once she started smirking.
"Oh no! I know that look that means that you have an idea and your ideas gets us in trouble, so whatever it is you're planning, don't think about including me in it" I said
"Fine, then let Ethan break your little sister's heart like he broke yours. After all I'm not the one that will have to see her lock herself in her bedroom crying and once she gets out…" She started saying thinking that this would make me give in to her plan. Well, she won.
"Fine! Let's hear your plan" I said
"What if Ethan has detention" She said smiling
"That's perfect! That way he will be stuck in the school and won't be able to give Naomi a ride. One problem how are we going to make him have detention" I said
"He has physics with Mrs. Clarkson 6th period, if we can distract him for a minute, he will be sitting in the detention room with you for an hour" She said
"OK! You distract him, while I go do whatever I have to do" I said
"Yeah! That can't work I have Mrs. Clarkson 6th period" She said
"No way am I going to distract him" I said
"C'mon Ally! It's for your sister, and you won't be late for class since you're 6th period is free" she said
"Fine, I'll do it. Naomi better thanks me for this" I said
"Yay" Trish cheered.
'Great' I thought
"I can't believe I let you talk me into this" I said to Trish while we were walking to our lockers.
We're in the 5 minute break between 5th and 6th period, and I'm freaking out. I haven't talked to Ethan since freshman year and now we're seniors, and the fact that he's my ex-boyfriend doesn't help.
"I wish I could be there with you, but I have to go can't be late" with that said Trish left to get to class.
I placed my chemistry book in my locker and then left to go to Ethan's locker, hoping he didn't already leave.
As expected, I found him at his locker. He was talking to some of his friends, they're all friends. I went to the corner behind the lockers close to them and also in the direction to Mrs. Clarkson class.
I heard them talking about a game, it's probably just a football game. Ethan loves football, I know that because that's all he talked about when we were dating.
"Well, I have to go now or I'll be joining Austin in detention today" I heard Ethan say
'That's my cue' I thought. I waited a little till he was near, and then went out of the corner seemed like I was just walking, not hiding in a corner, and just as planned I bumped into him.
"Sorry, I was just… Oh it's you" I said
"What a nice way to greet an ex. If you excuse me I have a class to get to" He said and started walking.
"Naomi told me you offered her a ride" I said
"So…" He said
"I don't want you near her" I said confidently, that's a surprise.
"Like that would stop me" He said
"Well, if you don't want her to know what a jerk you are, then you'll leave her alone" I said
"You wouldn't tell her anything, I know you Ally" He said smirking
"Your right I wouldn't, but Trish would" when I mentioned Trish's name his face turned
"You remember Trish, right"
"Of course, who could forget her" He said
"I think that means that you'll stay away from Naomi" I said and turned away to leave
"You should probably get to class, you're already 2 minutes late" I said while walking away
I heard him run and started to laugh.
'Well, that was fun' I thought
I can't believe I used to date him. In my defence he was innocent when we first met in 9th grade, at least I thought he was.
I was walking out of school, in my free period I either go to the music room to play or do homework, but days like today when the music room is occupied I just take a walk outside. I don't go far, I usually go to a park beside the school, it's a good place to just clear my mind.
I bumped into someone, this is not my day.
"Sorry, I wasn't paying attention to where I was going" I heard a masculine voice say
I looked at who it was, it was Austin. 'Great' I thought
"No it's not your fault I was lost in my mind, I should probably be careful. You're like the 4th person I've bumped into today" I said, now he will think I'm a freak.
He laughed and then said "Wow! At least you're bumping into people. I don't know, but bumping into a wall or a trashcan can hurt" He said
"I know I am an expert" I said smiling "I'm Ally"
"Austin" He said
"Not that it's any of my business, but shouldn't you be in class" He said
"I have a free period" I said, I can't believe I still haven't embarrassed myself. Technically I did by what I said about bumping into objects, but that's an improvement.
"Me too, do you mind if I stay with you?" He asked
"I don't, actually I was going to the park beside the school, if you want you want to come" I said
"Well, let's go" He said
