Chapter 8: Confessions

I woke up and something was different. I looked out the window, and it wasn't sunny, but it wasn't raining either. I smiled to myself and got ready for school. As I was coming downstairs, I saw Stuart looking out the window. "Stu-uh, dad, what are you doing?" I asked. He looked at me, and then looked back outside.

"It seems that Tommy Quincy is going to be picking you up today," he said as he went into the kitchen.

"What?" I muttered to myself as I went to the window. I looked outside and saw Tommy's blue viper. Then I heard the doorbell ring and I opened the door. "What are you doing here?" I asked as Tommy finally came into view.

"I came to give you a ride to school," he shrugged. I rolled my eyes and walked into the kitchen. I didn't know what his angle was, but I was determined to find out. He followed me and I suddenly stopped and turned around. I could tell he was stifling a laugh. I guess whatever expression I had on was pretty amusing.

"I'm just going to grab a pop-tart. I'll meet you outside, okay?" I said. He shrugged again and walked outside. I kissed Stuart on the cheek and grabbed a strawberry pop-tart. I stalked out the door to see Tommy leaning against his viper with his sunglasses on, and a leather jacket. He looked so beautiful, that he couldn't be human. I walked up to him and he opened the passenger door for me. I smiled and stepped in. Suddenly he was getting settled in the driver's seat. I looked at him with a shock look. How did he come here so fast? Not even two seconds ago he was closing my door.

I kept my mouth shut. I didn't want to start another fight. I looked out the window and saw all the…green. My cell rang and I check the caller I.D. It was Kat. I sighed and flipped it open. "Hello?" I said.

"Hey there!" Kat cheerfully greeted. How could someone be so cheerful in the morning? "I was just wondering if you were going to bring back my CD."

"Oh, you mean The Clash? I'm sorry; I left it in my truck." I said totally forgetting about it.

"But, aren't you riding your truck right now?" she asked. I could tell she was smiling at the other end. I didn't say anything. I just looked at Tommy who was looking at me and then turned my head back to the window. "You're with Tommy aren't you?"

"Maybe," I mumbled under my breath.

"Ha! I knew it! So you two are finally going out!"

"What, Kat, bit your tongue. Okay? Bit your whole mouth…no. He's just…giving me a ride."

"Uh huh, whatever you say. I guess I'll see you at school."

"Yep, bye Kat."

I hung up and sighed. I leaned back in my seat and saw Tommy still staring at me.

"Keep your eyes on the road," I told him.

"But the road isn't as pretty," he told me and I blushed involuntarily.

"Tommy, the road!" I yelled at him. He rolled his eyes and looked at the road again. Once we got to school everyone was staring at us. I pushed my hair over my face so no one could see me. I just wanted to runaway and hide. I hated being the center of attention. Soon, I saw Sadie Quincy, come up to us. Sadie had long blonde hair and the same topaz colored eyes as Tommy. When she walked it was like she was floating across the ground. She was so incredibly beautiful, and I envied her for that.

Sadie had this smile that was way to perfect. "So, you didn't tell us that you were taking her to school Tommy." She said in the sweetest voice. It was flawless.

Tommy went up to her and kissed her on the cheek. "I wouldn't have to tell you what I'm doing. You already knew." Tommy said as he walked to the school, leaving me and Sadie to follow him. Sadie's face turned to him and I could see the warning signs in her eyes. Did he say something that he wasn't supposed to say? Tommy shrugged apologetically and took me by the hand and walked me to my first class. Butterflies filled my stomach when I felt his cool touch on my warm skin. We stopped in front of Mrs. Brown's classroom again.

I saw Kat walk by and she smiled at me knowingly. I rolled my eyes at her and looked at Tommy again. His eyes were a different kind of color today. There were dark. Yet, I still got lost in them. I shook my head and looked down. I blushed and he took a step back. I looked at him befuddled. He always did that when I blushed. "Why do you always do that?" I asked. Tommy cocked an eyebrow at me. "Don't look at me like that. You know what I mean. Every time I blush or push my hair over face you back up."

"I don't know what you're talking about," he said crossing his arms.

"Oh," I whispered. "Of course you don't."

The bell rang and I walked into class quickly. Tommy Quincy was the most annoying person I ever met. But I still really, really, liked him. I hated myself for that. Jamie and I got in trouble in Mrs. Brown's class for talking so much. We got sent to the office. This was ridiculous. We weren't even talking that much. Jamie and I came in laughing when we saw Tommy at the office. He looked between me and Jamie. Jamie had his arm around my shoulders. For some reason, I felt really guilty. I shrugged Jamie's arm off.

Both of us sat down across from Tommy. He was staring at me and I was trying to look anywhere but him. Why did I feel so ashamed? I didn't do anything wrong. It's not like Tommy was my boyfriend or something. There was no reasonable explanation for what I was feeling. The receptionist, who I found her name was Ms. Dobson, came out and gave Tommy a slip. It was a check-out slip. "You're leaving?" I asked as Tommy was about to walk out the door. I didn't really mean to say that out loud. He turned around and looked at me with a smile that made me melt.

"Yea, it's healthy to skip sometimes," he said.

"Oh, so you're not going to be in biology?"

"No, sorry. I'll be back to give you a ride back home though."

Tommy walked out and some rain came in. Great, I thought it wasn't going to rain today.

"I think he's jealous," Jamie whispered to me.

"Huh?" I questioned.

"You didn't see how uncomfortable he was? He's completely jealous." He chuckled.

That brought a slight smile to my face. Jamie noticed and smiled too. "You like him."

"No…I…no."

"Jude, don't even try. Kat has been watching you like a hawk, and you smiled when I said he was jealous. You like him."

I looked at him and smiled. "Maybe a little."

Hehe! I know all of you got butterflies on that last line. The next update will skip to Saturday, when she goes shopping K? PLEASE LEAVE AWESOME REVIEWS!!
