And here is the 2nd update today!
I own nothing!
I walked into school the next morning and met Emily at her locker. We talked and walked to my locker. I grabbed my book from my locker and shut the door. I looked past Emily and saw Jason.
I instantly knew something was wrong. He was talking to Gabriel and Principle Tamborelli and looked worried. He must have felt my eyes on him because he looked at me. I sent him a smile. He just looked down and then back to Gabe and the principle.
Emily had noticed the exchange as well.
"Did something happen after we left last night?" She asked.
"He came over and said good night, but there was nothing wrong."
I kept my eyes focused on Jason. I knew he felt me staring, by the way he intentionally turned his back to me.
"I wonder what's going on then."
"I don't know." I paused. "Do you think I've gotten him in trouble somehow?"
"Why would you think that?"
"He's only a few years younger than Ezra. Maybe..."
Emily cut me off. "Don't even finish that sentance. Everyone has known about you and Jason from the beginning. That's not it."
"I hope not."
"It's not." The bell rang. "Come on, we have to get to class."
I took one last look at Jason, and then followed Emily to class.
"Aria Mountgumery, please report to the guidance counselors office." Our school's secretary called over our school's loud speaker.
I gathered my books and walked to Jason's office. I stood outside for a few minutes before entering.
Jason was pacing up and down his office floor.
"You wanted to see me." I stated, breaking him from his pacing.
He immediatly came over and pulled me into a hug. Neither of us spoke or moved for a long time.
Finally he pulled away.
"Listen, we don't have very long. I need you to listen to me very carefully and follow my instructions."
I was confused. "So you aren't mad at me?"
He looked at me like I was crazy. "What? Why would you think I was mad at you?"
"Because of this morning."
"That's what I'm trying to tell you. There was a letter taped to Principle Tamborelli's office door this morning. They say there's a bomb placed under the school."
