Sleeping In
I was walking to my locker before my second class when Cee Cee came running up to me.
"Where were you in first period? We got a really big assignment in history about researching someone from the 17th century. Oh and Paul kept on asking why you weren't in class. Like I knew, you never tell me anything." Cee Cee was rambling on as I got my books out of my locker.
"Cee Cee, slow down. It's not like I was in jail or anything, I just slept in a little later. I forgot to set my alarm."
"Are you sure? I mean I can understand the occasional "forgot to set my alarm thing" but you have "forgot to set your alarm" for over a week now and if you are ever going to pass you classes, you actually have to attend some of them. Suze, I know you, and you are not telling me the truth. So what is it? Where were you?" Wow. Talk about a third degree questioning!
"Cee Cee I don't know what to say, because that's the truth. I have been up late at night for a while trying to catch up on my homework." How could she argue with that?
"Then why did Paul say he really needed to talk to you about last night?" Damn!
"Look, I really don't want to talk about this right now, and I have to get to class and get some educational learning in if I am going to pass at least one of my classes." By this time, we had reached my next class and Cee Cee, deciding that she wasn't going to get any answers right now said goodbye and walked off to her next class.
Lunch Time
"What was last night about? Why did you run off in such a hurry?" Paul had come up beside me on the wall where I was eating my lunch.
"Sorry, I just had to get home." I didn't really feel up to making any excuses.
"What about not getting to class on time?"
"I slept in. You know late night meetings aren't exactly the best for getting your beauty sleep."
"Then why don't we change the time to say around dinner time?" He was grinning again. Oh how I hated that grin, even if it made hi look so much hotter. Bad Thought, Bad Suze!
"No! I like our time just how it is thank you very much." I didn't want anyone to see us together in public getting the wrong idea.
"Fine. See you tonight then. Say hi to lover boy for me." Paul got off the wall and started to walk back inside. Thanks a lot Paul you just had to mention Jesse didn't you?
Home
I walked into my room as soon as I got home no wanting to make small chit chat with mom or Andy.
"Jesse! Jesse, get over here right now!" I yelled. I was really pissed off. A couple of seconds late, Jesse materialized beside my bed, his face looking blank.
"Susannah? What is it?" He raised one eyebrow in question.
"What was going through your head when you followed me last night?"
"I didn't." I had pulled out of my bag, the piece of cotton I had found on the floor of the library and threw it at him.
"You didn't what? Follow me? Spy on Paul and me, last night? Well if you didn't, then why the fuck was this on the ground at the library?" I knew I shouldn't have swore, because Jesse looked really taken aback, but I was really, really mad. "What did you think you were doing?"
"I was trying to protect you from Paul." He said shortly, not looking a bit sorry about what he had done, and that just mad me angrier.
"Protecting me? From what? I was practically screaming now, not caring if anyone could here me.
"From this." Jesse stepped a little closer to me and put his hands around my waist; looking meaningfully into my eyes for a couple of seconds he lowered his lips to mine. And let me tell you, every time Jesse has ever kissed me (okay, so maybe there has only been a couple of times, but at least that's something), it is a whole different experience every time. We stood there for a couple of seconds kissing like there was no tomorrow. But when he finally lifted his head away from mine (not at all a happy moment for me), he said:
"I'm sorry Susannah, I shouldn't have done that." And then he dematerialized. Just like that. I felt like crying. He shouldn't have done that? Why would he say something like that? If anything, he should have apologized for following me last night. A/N: So? What do you think? Please review!
