July came and went like it was a leaf blowing in the wind. The next thing I knew, it was the middle of August. And I was in school. And Jake was still gone, but due to be back soon because the filming went faster than suspected. Although I wasn't as melodramatic as I was before, I was still a little emotional about certain things. Like Jackson watching previews for Jake's new movie. I know I should be supportive, but I have learned to hate that movie with a passion. Unfortunately, the world loved to talk about it, so I was doomed to having to hear about it everyday.
"MILEY! COME ON GET OUT OF BED AND GET READY FOR SCHOOL!" Dad screamed. I groaned and turned over, not wanting to get out of bed today. You know those days you have when you just don't want to do anything but stay in bed and morn because your zombie slaying boyfriend is gone away to be in a movie and won't be back for a while...Well maybe you don't but yeah...that's how I felt.
"MILEY STEWART GET YOUR LAZY BUTT OUT OF BED RIGHT THIS MINUTE!" Jackson screamed as he walked in my room, eating a. . .frozen pickle?. . .ok, ew!
"Oh go suck Lilly's face." I replied and laughed silently as Jackson's face colored a very rosy red. I sighed and jumped out of bed. I ran to my closet and randomly picked out clothes. It didn't matter what I wore, I had no one to compliment me on my outfit and say I look gorgeous.
What I grabbed happened to be gray sweat pants and a yellow tank top. I sighed. Better than nothing right? I got dresses quickly and made my way downstairs, stuffing my blank homework into my bag. I knew my grades were suffering a lot, but hey, Dad can't ground me from going anywhere with Jake if he isn't here.
I grabbed a yogurt out of the fridge and a spoon, kissed Dad bye and slapped Jackson upside the head, and made my way outside to wait for the bus. After about three minutes, Oliver appears out of breath and running. He throws down his bag and asked,
"Am I fully dressed?" I peeked carefully at him and was about to say yes when I noticed a sock was missing. . .and that he was wearing a yellow sock with a red polo shirt. I laughed and said,
"Besides the socks, yes." he looked down and said,
"Dammit. I did it again." Oliver was referring to waking up ten minutes before the bus leaves and rushing to finish getting ready. He never managed. I stuck my spoon in the strawberry yogurt and ate about half before deciding I was done.
"Ugh, where is that bus?" Oliver asked as his stomach growled loudly.
"Shhh." He said to his stomach. I rolled my eyes and held out my half-eaten yogurt to him. He gratefully accepted and said,
"So. . .I hear we all have to take this dumb health class. You know the ones where they talk about how everyone our age is 'growing up'?"
I nodded.
"Well, they are having the boys and the girls take that class together. We start today. Its going to be really awkward and really funny." I agreed. Just then the bus pulled up. Me and Oliver boarded to see Lilly already saving us seats. She had another bus stop and always got on first.
"Hey Lil." I greeted.
"Sup Lilly." Oliver said as he too got into the seat, squashing me and Lilly.
"Ugh! Move Oliver!" Lilly screamed.
"(Cough) Oliver are you wearing cologne?" I asked.
"Maybe. . ." He said.
"Oh who is little Ollie trying to impress?" Lilly asked with humor. Oliver shushed her up and said,
"Shut up Lilly! I'll tell you guys later."
Finally the bus pulled into the school and we all filed out. My first class was health with all the rest of my home room. And true to his word, Oliver was right. They didn't separate us. Luckily, Lilly, me and Oliver were in the same home room. Jake would be if he was here.
"Children! Your attention please!" The health teacher, Mrs. Jones, called out to us. We all stopped talking and she said,
"Ok welcome to your first joint health class! We are going to learn about the opposite sex, our feelings, and growing up during this class! We are going to have such a fun time together!" We all exchanged looks.
"Ok the first thing we are going to do is a little assignment. Sarah, will you pass out these paper hearts?" Sarah picked up a big box of these large red paper hearts and gave everyone one. Once we all had one Ms. Jones said,
"OK everyone, I'm going to say real life situations. And I want you to imagine them happening to you. If it would hurt you, tear your heart in half. If it doesn't, don't touch it. At the end of the lesson we are going to see which gender has the most heart left. Ok the first situation is–
Suddenly the door opened and a familiar head of blond hair entered. All his fan girls screamed and jumped up and ran to him, throwing their jealous little arms around him. But he was only looking at me. I then felt very intimidated by the other girls, who were wearing hot outfits and I was here wearing sweat pants and a tank top. But still, I jumped up and made my way through the sea of desperate girls. I cautiously put my arms around him and whispered, "Welcome back." I wanted to kiss him and hug him forever, but a million angry eyes were burning a whole in my back so I just led him to the seat beside mine. Mrs. Jones glared and said,
"Miss. Stewart would you kindly fill Mr. Ryan in on what we are doing? Please and thank you." I rolled my eyes and explained everything to him, but not without stealing a kiss or two in the process.
"Ok girls, boys, hold up your hearts." We all lifted them up. "Now, I want you to pair off with a friend of the opposite gender. Whether its your boyfriend or best friend, I don't care! Just do it." Suddenly tons of girls ran over to Jake.
"Sorry girls. Miley is my partner." He said with a smile. Lilly and Oliver pared up and soon everyone was paired off and ready to go.
"Ok, your dog dies in a fire, remember only rip it if its cry worthy." She said. Ouch. I ripped mine in half. I looked at Jake's, who's was still whole. Lilly's was ripped but Amber and Ashley's were still whole.
"Your boyfriend/girlfriend tells you they love you, then goes behind your back with your best friend." I ripped mine and some boy called out,
"Do we rip it if it hurt our pride?"
"No, just your heart." Mrs. Jones replied. Jake and Oliver still had a whole heart.
"You give in to your boyfriend/girlfriend and get them/you pregnant and them they dump you afterwards." Mrs. Jones said. I tore mine twice, as did Lilly. Oliver ripped his once and Jake did too.
"Your friends tell you that you can never amount to anything in life." I ripped mine, followed by Lilly and Jake. Oliver didn't rip his.
" Your parents tell you they don't love you." I ripped mine again, Lilly ripped hers, and Oliver and Jake ripped theirs.
"You're whole house gets burned in a fire, but no one gets hurts." I didn't tear mine, no one did except Amber and Ashley.
"You hurt someone you love a lot." I ripped mine twice and Lilly ripped hers once along with Jake and Oliver.
"No one pays you any attention anymore." I riped mine once, Jake didn't rip his at all (I guess because he wished sometimes people would ignore him) Oliver and Lilly ripped theirs.
At the end of the lesson she said,
"Girls, hold up your hearts." I picked up my peices of red paper and help them up in the air. Everyone's looked like mine except Amber and Ashley who only had one tear.
"Now boys." She said. More than half of them had whole hearts left. We gathered out stuff up and walked out of the room.
"Can you believe some of those boys had barely any rips?" Lilly exclaimed. I nodded and said,
"Yes I can." But nothing could bring me down, Jake was back!
