Chapter 10

NOTE: Short chapter because it was bugging me were I left the last chapter.

Shannon's POV

I feel kind of weird walking down the hall, were not talking, I can see why though, I did blow him off a lot today. We didn't talk much at lunch today, just organizing what we were going to do. I don't see why he needs any help; he managed a 70% last year. This was just one test. He's good at everything else, I know for a fact that he can do better. But he's really stubborn when it comes to school.

'So, um.' I don't know what to say.

'Yea, are you ok? You were acting really weird all day today.'

I had a feeling that this question was coming. Why can't things just disappear? Why? Because that would be too easy! I took a sideways glance at Adam; he looked so dreamy today. I had to find a way to answer this honestly without sounding like a goof. 'It was just one of my moods, Fulton said something to me last night and it's been festering on my brain all day. And then this morning, Cher and Di once again lectured me on the "horrible jocks"' I said rolling my eye's. 'That didn't bug me so much, it's just Fulton, he's like Charlie's lackey now. Normally I don't mind hanging around him, but, well, you know, with what's been going on. But it doesn't change what.I feel about you.' I could literally feel my entire face burn red!

Adam looked really concentrated. Adam didn't say anything for a bit. I thought he was mad at me. 'How do you feel about me?' He stopped walking.

I had walked up little and turned around. 'Adam, I really like you, you're an awesome friend, and I would like us to be, um' I had never been this shade of red in my life! 'More than friends. But if you don't want to I totally understand, I've been kind of not, the best today.'

'No, you were confusing today, I thought you changed your mind. I really do like you, no matter how confusing you are, you are the most confusing person I've ever met, but if I can still like you... Then I do want to be with you.'

I swear if I was an over emotional girl I would have cried. 'So, what are we saying?' I knew what we were saying I just wanted to know what he was really saying and I wanted him to say it first.

'I'm saying, we should tell everyone who doesn't want us to be together to go hump a log.' Adam said grinning; he was handsome when he grinned.

'So, we are.' I couldn't bring myself to say the words I was worried if I did the very notion of us being together would fade away.

'Yes' Adam said looking me strait in the eye. It seemed that the day had just passed, the sun was sinking quickly and the air became more frigid. Adam's POV

'Yes" was the only words that were able to come out of my mouth at that moment. Completely stunned at what just happened. Shannon, who I've wanted forever, is my girlfriend. Possibly the most complex person ever, like "Shrek" except hot, and a girl. We continued walking to my car. Instead of uneasy nothingness it was comfy. We got in the car, I turned it on and NIN immediately came on. I was relieved that I didn't have hockey practice. I had so much homework to night, and I wanted a chance to just hang out with Shannon. Once we turned into my driveway I saw that everyone was home. I undid my seat belt and just sat there. 'Let's not go in yet' I said as I lay my head back on the seat rest.

'Ok'

'Actually do you want to skip studying tonight? And go out for supper?'

'Are you sure?

'About what supper? Of course, supper's the best.'

Shannon gave me a sideways' glance. 'No, about studying, don't you need to keep your marks high for university?'

'Yea, but I'm doing well in every other class. It will be easy to bring my mark back up.'

Shannon gave me a playful glare. 'If you're sure, but you're the smart one.'

I'm going to kiss Shannon now. I leaned over and kissed Shannon quickly and then went back to my seat. 'So where do you want to eat?'

'Uh, why don't we just go to "Subway". Shannon said. I'm not feeling like eating a lot.'

'Ok.' I started the car again a headed to subway.
