Sonya

After lunch we had to walk some more, I almost jumped onto Nick's back; my feet were killing me. The harsh florescent lights were giving me a headache and the place smelled… old. Finally reaching my breaking point, I started walking slower until we were at the back of the crowd and then I grabbed Nick and pulled him away from the group.

He looked confused, but before I could say anything I kissed and he immediately did the same. This was who I wanted to be with, not Daniel, that kiss was a sloppy and drunken mistake. But this? This was perfect.

We kissed some more, going as far as we dare. His fingers were tangled in my hair and I pushed him up against the wall.

Someone said behind us "So that's where you two went."

We immediately sprang apart and spun around to reveal Julian. He was leaning against the wall and I started to blush. Was he like a pervert or something? Watching us kiss.

"You missed the tour… and the teachers thought you got lost."

Crap! They were looking for us! "Uh we were just-,"

"Trying to find your way back?" Julian said almost mockingly.

I opened my mouth to say more but Julian interrupted me "We'll just say you got lost, okay?"

Nick and I nodded and her lead us down corridors. Rounding endless corners, how the hell did he not get lost?

The silence was killing me. Why wasn't he going to tell the teachers?

Then he asked "Who's your mother? Sonya."

What kind of question is that? "Her name's Johanna,"

The corners of his mouth twitched "How is she for a mother?"

Where to begin? Her bad temper? Her sarcasm? Even though she's like that, we still had some awesome times together. "Has its really tough times, but she's a fine mother." Then I asked "Why do you ask? Do you know her?"

Julian nodded "And Nick's mother and father, and Odair's father and mother I knew too."

"Do you want me to like, give her your number or something?" It felt weird to ask, but my mom wasn't the best at making friends, and she needed some more.

"NO!" He said quickly shaking his head, "I don't think she'll wanted to see me, any of them for that matter,"

What did he do to them? I was going to ask him that but we rounded the corner and almost ran into two teachers. "We were looking everywhere for you two! Where were you?"

"We got lost," Nick lied smoothly.

Dinner came and went, so I went back to my room with Ana when I shut the door she said matter-of-factly "You didn't get lost."

I gave her a sly smile "Maybe or maybe not."

Ana sat on her bed and tucked a strand of inky hair behind her ear "Just don't hurt him…"

I almost laughed, that's what I wanted to say about her and Daniel "Okay, as long as you don't hurt Daniel."

But you kissed him.

Yea, but it was a mistake.

You're lying to her.

I felt a pang of guilt. I needed to tell her.

"Uh Ana?"

"Mhm?" Anastasia asked while trying to find her pajamas.

"I… uh… I kissed…"

Ana laughed "Yes, I'm aware you've kissed my brother."

"No, I kissed…" Just spit it out! Stop being a chicken! I sighed "I kissed Daniel a few weeks ago."

I'm sorry it's so short! I've neglected my homework for the past few days!
