Chapter 7
With that I turn and walk down the halls to the foyer and exit the building, I start off with a jog and then once I'm off school grounds I start sprinting, I don't stop, my mind just keeps thinking and it's driving me insane. I find myself run through a park and look around, I find a lake and sit down next to it.
I sit at the lake for a couple of minutes just soaking in the sun "Wow!" I jump at the sudden voice behind. I turn around to see Evan standing the there and staring at me "Oh…I said that out loud"
"Yeah no shit! What the hell do you think your doing?" What the hell, I come out here for peace, not to be annoyed.
"Sorry… I was… Umm, just coming to… umm check on you" At this point I notice how red his cheeks are and how the sweat is falling down his forehead.
"DID YOU FOLLOW ME!" god, what's he think, that I can't take care of myself.
"No, but if I did, I would tell you that you are a hard person to keep up with"
"So you did follow me" it wasn't a question.
"Ok so what if I did, is that a crime, I was worried about you" His face pales at his statement but I don't know why.
I sit back down looking out along the lake "Well I'm fine, if that's what your so worried about" Evan comes and sits next to me, it's only now that I realize that I can tell the twins apart.
"You ran out of that room pretty quickly" he looks over at me. His face slowly turns back to it's normal tanned self.
I put my head down "Yeah, well, I needed to clear my head, which your not helping by being here"
"So that's what you do, run off when something is unclear" He looks back at the lake.
I look at him, watching the sun reflecting off the water onto his face, making him glow in a godly manner. "No, well yes, ok sometimes" I look back over the lake. "I just like to knowing what's going on in my life"
"That's not easy… you know to know what's going on"
We both look at each other "Sometimes it's easier then others, but most of the time I don't even know what's right in front of me" Our eyes lock and we don't look away.
His midnight blue eyes look straight through me and I notice the light blue on the inside of his eyes. "Maybe that's for the best" He slowly leans into me.
"Maybe" Our breaths combined, but not our lips. Millimetres, that's all it is, that's all it is to kiss him.
"Georgia, oh my god!" I jump back at Retu voice coming from behind us.
"Hi Retu" I get up and don't look at Evan.
"What have you been doing? I was looking for you for the last 10 minutes"
"I was just going to head back…so…yeah" I walk off and then I run. Not wanting to think about what just happen or was about to happen. I don't know how I feel, or how I should feel. My emotions are going crazy and they keep going.
This time I run and don't stop. It's not a sprint but a general run. I also start to cry, tears roll down my face, I don't know why I'm crying but I just do. I run for an hour and find myself standing at the front of the school. Just as I walk back onto the grounds someone calls out to me. "GEORGIA!" I don't stop walking "GEORGIA, WAIT UP!' why does that voice have to be so familiar. I turn around and see him through my watery eyes, run towards me.
"Go away Evan! I can't talk to you at the moment" I turn and run for the basketball courts. I stay there for sometime, no one coming to find me, just me and my game.
Hours pass, I've stopped crying and I'm still shotting, when three figures walk in. I knew this was coming. "I don't want to talk about"
"Talk about what?" Bec states
"The fact that Retu caught you and Evan oh so close together?" Emma comments
I continue shotting and don't stop, doing some cross over at times and not looking at any of them. "You know… It's alright?" Bec looks at me with concern
"I know"
"So them you know that… I don't know… that we want to know all the details" Emma says
"Guys I think we should give Georgia some space" Retu turns to the others, eyes telling them to let me be.
"Ok, how about we go to the supermarket and get some food and stuff for a movie and we will have a movie night" That's what we did, starting our long weekend and with most of our homework and a girls night.
