Chapter 10 - Eavesdropping
"How could he?" Carol whispered to not draw attention to me form Alyssa and Gerald.
"I know! And he has the nerve to come walking in with her." Candice said while making an evil stare at her direction.
"It's okay. He can do whatever he wants. He's his own person." I grasped as I sat there tapping my fingers bitterly.
"You're really letting him go to the dance…" Candice paused to look at them. "Go to the dance with Heather?"
"Yeah. Why wouldn't I? I'm not his mother." I said with torment in my eyes.
"But you're his girlfriend!" Carol added.
I went quiet for the whole lunch period. I wanted to ditch, but I had no car to run to.
I walked alone to gym class. I wanted Jacob by my side even if we wouldn't talk. He calmed me, made me feel like I was floating on a cloud. I went to the locker room and saw Heather talking to her friends about the dance. I tried to get close enough to hear and tried to look like I wasn't paying attention.
"I don't know what I should wear for the dance. I am freaking out right now. We have to go shopping after school." Heather said frantically.
"Totally. You have to look good for him." Her blonde friend said.
"I still can't believe you're going with Jacob! I thought he was with her." Her other red-head friend pointed at me. I tried to look like I was tying my shoes or fixing my shirt.
"Me too, apparently, he likes me more." Heather snickered and looked at me. She laughed.
"Well, you plan to date him after right?" Her blonde friend asked.
"Of course."
A/N : I am sorry that I don't do A/N's, but I might start. I am sorry that this chapter is short. I had to rush this chapter. But the next one's will be longer.
