Chapter 2 - Why Didn't I Know This?
Disclaimer: I still don't own anything.
-Zack's POV-
I was getting out of my car, when Ellie pulled into the spot next to me.
"Hi Zack." She took off her sunglasses, and squinted a bit. Her hair blew in all directions.
"Hey Ellie."
"It's almost Spring Break. I can't wait!" She smiled, showing off her beautiful, straight, white teeth.
"Yeah, it is. I'm excited too. Hey..."
"Yeah?" She looked up at me. I'm a good five inches taller than her, if not, more. She's like 5'2" I think.
"How about I walk you to class?" I was praying she'd say yes.
"Zack..."
"Yeah?" My hopes had been dropped.
"We have English together first period." She giggled.
"Oh yeah...Well, come on, let's go."
We started walked towards Horace Green High, when I felt someone put their arms around my neck.
"Hi Zack! I missed you!" It was Summer.
"Oh, hi Summer." I looked over at Ellie, and she just smiled.
"You didn't miss me?"
"Um, yeah, of course I did."
"Good. Now kiss me." I gave Summer a peck on the lips. I felt guilty, but I didn't know why.
Ellie and I walked Summer to her Advanced Chemistry class.
"Off to English!" I practically yelled. Ellie giggled at me. Out of instinct, I grabbed her hand, and held it until we got to English. She realized I had been holding her hand and looked down.
"Sorry about that. It was an instinct. Sorry..." I apologized.
'It's okay. It was kind of nice." She smiled sweetly and walked to her seat in the classroom. I smiled to myself, and walked in.
"Hey Freddy."
"Hey Zack Attack." I gave him five and sat behind Ellie. She turned around and smiled again. I felt myself blush a little. Freddy took notice to this.
"SUMMER." He pretended to cough. I shot him a look.
Our English teacher, Mrs. Trecher, was giving out the project assignment.
"Freddy, is there something that you would like to share with us?" She asked impatiently.
"No, ma'am. Not at all." He gave her a fake smile, and she continued.
"Now, class. This will be a group project, but ONLY, I repeat, only TWO people per group." Everyone was pretty excited about this.
"The groups are..." She began to read off of the piece of paper she held. "Freddy and Zack. Marta and Ellie. Molly and Andrew. Maurissa and Jack. Emily and Tracey. Oh my...I must've misplaced my other list. The rest of you, see me after class."
Freddy tapped Ellie on her shoulder. "Wanna switch partners?" He asked her. A grin was forming on his lips. I actually hoped she would say yes, and then we would be able to work together.
Ellie rolled her eyes at him. "Please Ellie? Please?" She took a deep breath.
"You expect me to switch partners with you, right after you broke up with my best friend? I actually have a funny story to tell you, Freddy Jones. A girl called me last night, CRYING so much, she hardly BREATHE. Do you know who that girl was?" Ellie was close to tears by now. I was just sitting there, confused. "Do you?" She yelled.
"Yeah..." Freddy kept his head down the entire time.
"Who was it, Freddy?"
"It was Katie..."
"Dude, you broke up with Katie! What the hell is the matter with you?" I yelled at him. "Katie was the best girlfriend you ever had, and you just threw her away like that. Man, there really is something wrong with you." Freddy got up, and stormed out of the room.
"Are you okay, Ellie?" I moved my seat next to her.
"Yeah, I'm fine."
"Hey Ellie, I was wondering..." I started, when Marta came up to her.
"Hey Marta."
"Hey, I wanted to ask you if you wouldn't mind if I worked with Freddy, and you could work with Zack." She said with that cheerful voice of hers.
Ellie looked at her with disgust. "Whatever. I'd rather work with Zack, than you you're your disgusting man whore." She mumbled. Marta walked out of the room. She met up with Freddy, who was waiting outside of the room for her.
"Zack, come to my house after school." Ellie walked away with her head low.
I was worried about her. I didn't see her for the rest of the day. Luckily, I was going to her house after school.
A/N: YAY! I made it longer. I can't wait for the next chapter, which I'm writing. I might finish the story today, hah. I had a dream about this story last night, so I woke up and started writing. Woo.
