Gilbert?
"Mari you ought to be more careful. You could have really hurt yourself." He said.
I nodded my head and he set me on the ground.
"Do you want a ride to school?" He asked.
I whipped out my phone and sent him a message saying, 'Did you drive all the way over here to see if I want a ride to school?'
"Actually, I pick up feliciano and Lovino every other morning for school. We carpool. I only live a few streets over." He said.
'sure, a ride to school would be nice. Sometimes I am just to exhausted to walk to school and I hate asking my dad for a ride to school because he already works so hard to ensure that we have a place to stay. He does a lot for a single dad.'
"Well if you want you can carpool with us." He said.
I just nodded and walked over to his car. Obviously being the proud Germanic guy that he is, he had a Volkswagen. I just giggled and entered the car.
"You know you should laugh more often, it's cute." He said.
I just smiled and giggled again at his bluntness.
Feliciano, Roma, and Ludwig were already in the car waiting. There was one seat in between the twins, so I sat there.
"Hi Maribella." Roma said.
"Hi Bella." Feli said.
"Hallo Mari." Ludwig said.
'hi guys. Ludwig can I call you Luddy?' My message said.
"Not a school or in very public places, but when we are just hanging out you can." He said.
'I am taking that as a yes.'
Feli and Gil just laughed and Luddy shook his head.
'So where do you guys sit at lunch?'
"I will walk with you to our lunch table." Roma said.
'That would be lovely. Oh no! I think I dropped left my lunch on the table when I left the house this morning.'
"It's fine, you can shared some pasta with me. Feli made a lot last night so I am trying to get rid of some." Roma said with a chuckle.
I gave him a kiss on the cheek to show my appreciation of his kind gesture.
Everyone was too busy talking about what they brought for lunch to even notice. Roma was bright red.
"What's wrong Roma?" Feli asked.
"n-nothing is wrong. How long will it be until we get to school?"
"We are actually here now." Gil said.
Everyone got out of the car and grabbed their bags. All of the boys had two bags because they were all on the boys soccer team.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you. We all have soccer after school so do you want to stay after and watch? Or are you just going to go home?" Gil said.
'I didn't know you guys were on the soccer team. I want to see you guys play.' I messaged.
"Well then we will be in the locker rooms right after school. If you want to wait there we can show you to the fields and then you can watch us practice." Luddy said.
I nodded and I grabbed Roma's hand. We all walked into the big building. I kept my head down and my hand tightly grasped Roma's. He could tell I was nervous. I got closer to him the closer we got to the school. He squeezed my hand to let me know that he was here for me. When we entered the school all these girls came rushing up to the guys. Roma pushed past them and made sure I was still with him as we approached our lockers.
A bunch of girls were not pleased that Roma paid them no attention. They all started whispering and glaring at me. Roma just looked at me and squeezed my hand again.
"Don't pay attention to those girls. They are just mad that you get to hang out with the 'cutest' guys in school." He said as he made air quotes with his other hand.
I simply nodded and tried opening my locker. Once I got the metal door open I placed my back pack along with all of my not needed books away.
All I had left that wasn't in my locker, was my history and English materials. I had the exact same schedule as Romano so he also had the same things.
We we closed our lockers and made our way to class. School starts in 20 minutes so we are the first ones in the class. I grab my english text book and open it to the topic we are currently learning about.
I skim the pages and while I do that, I start humming the tune to the one republic song, say. I have recently been having a mini obsession with one republic. My favorite song by them is secrets. Now that I think about secrets, I start humming the tune to that song.
After awhile I actually start singing it. I only sing when I am alone. I am singing very quietly but if you listen you could still hear it.
"Maribella? You are a beautiful singer. You should join the glee club, they meet after school on every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. It is from 1:30-3:00." Roma said. He startled me so I abruptly stop singing and turn away from him.
I just shake my head and hope he forgets about the whole singing thing.
People led start to file into the class because it starts in about 5 minutes. Antonio takes his seat next to Roma and they start talking. Roma whispers something into Antonio's ear that makes Antonio smile right at me. His face is full of extreme joy.
Antonio tosses a note onto my desk.
'I need to see you after school tomorrow. Meet me in the cafeteria tomorrow at 1:15.' The note read.
I responded by tossing a note onto his desk.
'okay, but I can't stay after long. I have to meet my dad at 4. Nosotros vamos a visitar su Hermana.' The note read. (I always love to visit my dad's sister. She is my favorite distant relative.)
He nodded and said,"I don't see any problems. I will only need you until three." He said.
I nodded my head and the teacher called out names because class is starting and he is taking attendance.
