CHAPTER 5 Thinking about you
Hige and Toboe got home after walking Leara home. It was Toboe's idea. Hige's mom had fell asleep on the couch. Probably tried after a hard day of work. Hige went to his room, like he always did when he got home from school. Toboe usually watches TV while doing his homework but since his aunt was sleeping he decided to go to his room. He walked passed Hige's room hearing music blasting out of the crack between the door and the floor. Toboe shook his head and retreated to his room. The next morning Hige got up and changed into a dark gray shirt that had "Slacker" wrote on it and a pair of black loose pants. He walked out to the living room to see Toboe already sitting on the couch watching TV. Toboe was dressed in a moron shirt with "Do I look like I care" wrote on it and a pair of loose jeans. Toboe looked over to him.
"You ready?" he asked looking back at the TV. Hige grabbed his bag and walked out the front door. Toboe jumped out of his seat and ran out the door grabbing his bag in the process. They met up with Leara who was wearing a black and white checkered skirt and a black button up shirt.
"Hey Toboe." she said cheerfully walking up to them.
"Hi, Leara." Toboe said. Hige nodded at her as if to say hello without actually having to say it. They soon met up with Kiba but not Cheza. He was wearing a red shirt with towelly on it that said "I have no idea what's going on." wrote on it and jeans. (A/N: ya'll know who towelly is right? In case you don't know, towelly is a character from South Park that only appears in a few episodes. FYI towelly is really a towel that gets Hi)
"Hey Kiba. Where's Cheza?" Hige asked seeing Kiba all by himself.
"She's sick again." Kiba said. "She should be back in a couple of days." They got all their things for first period from their lockers and went to class. Hige sat down in his normal seat and wait for class to start.
Blue walked with Khiana, Jackie, and Callie to first period. They sat down beside each other. Blue had told them last night that she'll tell them what happened for her to end up in the boarding school. They seemed really happy that she's finally opening up to them and considering them as her friends. She doesn't really have any other friends besides Hige and his friends. She missed them a lot but wasn't about to ever say that out loud. She was surprised how quickly Khiana, Callie, and Jackie had let her become one of them. It left her wondering if they had a friend who moved and they needed someone to fill in her spot. Khiana had told her that on weekends they were aloud to go into town and fool around for about five hours. It sounded like fun and hopefully they would do that this weekend because Blue was already getting tired of see the same gray walls that covered every inch of the whole boarding school, they were even in the dorm rooms.
The bell rang and Hige went to second period. Like always, he sat next to Toboe, Leara, and Kiba. Toboe and Leara seemed to be deep in conversation. Hige noticed that every now and then a small blush would appear on either Toboe or Leara' s face. The teacher came in a had the class copy notes. The bell rang for third period. They walked to their lockers getting their things for class.
"I have to go." Hige heard Leara say to Toboe.
"Okay, I'll walk you." Toboe said causing a smile to appear on Leara' s lips.
"Won't you be late for your class?" Leara said even though you could tell that she did want him to walk her.
"It's okay. I've never been late before but I'm sure that the couch will let me off." Toboe said. Leara smile grow wider as they walked down the hall. Toboe slowly took Leara' s hand as they walked. They blushed disappearing in the crowd. Hige couldn't help but think of the time he had took Blue's hand walking her home that day. He shook the images out of his head. That was the last thing that he want to think about. Though, he couldn't stop thinking about her. He figured that it was one of those things like 'Out of sight. In the mind' or something else. He grabbed his books and quickly walked to class.
Blue sat in study hall along with Khiana, Callie, and Jackie. She had told them everything there was to tell about that day when her dad caught her and Hige kissing and sent her to a boarding school. She told them about all of her friends at her old school. It seemed to her that when she brought up Tsume, Callie seemed to light up at the sound of his name.
"So." Jackie said eyeing Blue as if trying to get more information about Hige.
"So what?" Blue asked her.
"Are you thinking about him." Jackie said.
"No of course not. Why would I think about that sexist jerk." Blue said making her friends laugh.
"AAAACCCCHHHHUUUU!!!!!" Hige sneezed sitting in his fourth period study hall.
"Bless you." the teacher said from her desk.
"Looks like someone's talking bad about porky." Tsume said smirking.
"Yeah right Tsume. Do you actually believe that?" Hige asked but received no answer from Tsume. The bell rang. Hige had asked Tsume earlier if he could tag along with him in town and Tsume didn't care. They left the building and drove off to town. They went to a place called Joe's cafe located around the corner from downtown. They got out of the car to be greeted by a girl with black hair pulled back into a pony tail. She hugged Tsume. Hige didn't say anything. He figured if he did then Tsume would punch his face to the back of his head.
"Hi. I'm Callie." She said to Hige.
"Hige." he answered.
"Hige? Do you happened to know anyone named Blue?"
Blue sat at lunch with Khiana and Jackie. Callie had already ran off to be with her boyfriend and as Khiana had said Jackie had told Callie that it was time for chili instead of the real time. The bell rang and they went to their fifth period. The teacher talked about the same thing over and over again. Blue noticed that Callie was passing notes with Khiana and Jackie. It had to be something good because they were smiling while reading it. The bell rang and they headed to sixth period which ran long like every class. But Blue could help but wondered what the were writing on that note that was so good. She knew that it was none of her business but it was so tempting.
Hige and Toboe walked Leara home like they did the day before. Her house was a small wooden one with two-stories. It seemed pretty roomy though Hige didn't get to see it from the inside. Toboe walked her right up to her door. Hige caught a glance of Leara giving Toboe a quick goodbye kiss. Toboe came back up to Hige his blush was darker than a upset bull. Hige was about to say something.
"Don't say anything." Toboe said his face still burning red.
"Okay I won't as long as you don't tell mom that I skipped school." Hige said.
"I won't." They got home and Hige went to his room. He lied in bed thinking about his conversation with Callie.
