Hi guys, I really hate the book Great Expectations. I really do. Its going to make me fail the 9th grade. Ugh, i am really starting to hate Charles Dickens. Well please enjoy this chapter.
Chapter 12:
Alex
I had the weirdest dream last night. I don't know why I dreamt this but I did. I was already at school so I walked over to Hannah and Tess. They knew that I had a little thing for Nate so I told them about my dream.
*the italicized is Alex explaining her dream*
I walked down the hallway of the school. It was a normal day. I walked down the hall but all the girls all were glaring at me for some odd reason. They had jealousy in their eyes. It was so weird. I turned around and saw Nate behind me with Shane a little bit farther back. Shane was talking to Mitchie, okay so not really talk but flirt. I stared in disbelief.
"Nate, why is Shane flirting with Mitchie?" I asked so confused about what was going on. It seemed so real. I looked back and Mitchie was laughing and flirting right back.
"What are you talking about? Shane told you three or four weeks ago that he was going to ask out Mitchie." Nate told me looking at me like I was crazy. "It was right after you guys broke up. Remember you broke up with him for me." Nate told me trying to refresh my memory.
'What?' I thought to myself. 'When did I break up with Shane? Why did I break up with Shane? Why is none of this making sense?' I thought to myself. Than I decided to just go along with it. "Oh, yeah, sorry about that I was just having a blond moment." I told him and I heard a "HEY!" from Hannah and Tess.
"So do you want me to walk you to class?" Nate asked me while standing beside my locker.
"Sure just let me get my stuff out." I told him before opening up my locker which was full of stuff that I had never seen before. There were pictures everywhere of Nate and I. And there was a cute little teddy bear and I looked into my mirror and saw a guitar pick necklace around my neck. They were both so cute.
"Then after I saw the necklace I woke up." I said finishing my story that I had just told my two best friends.
"Aww." I heard Hannah and Tess say in unison. As always they had to blow everything out of proportion I mean it was just a dream. It didn't mean anything.
"What's with the 'aww's'" I heard Nate say from behind them.
"Aww." was all they could say, which made Nate look at them weird and then he glanced over at me and I gave him a 'like-I-know-why-they-were-just-awwing look.
"Okay, this is kinda weird. So Alex do you need anyone to walk you to class?" Nate asked me. Again all we heard was 'Aww' from Hannah and Tess.
"If you say aww one more time I will stop getting you guys discounts for all the prada and Gucci stuff you guys always buy." I told them giving them a you-aww-one-more-time-you-will-so-pay look.
"Okay, fine we will stop. But this is so cute its just like your-" Hannah said before I cupped my hand over her mouth.
"my top, yes, everything is as cute as my top." I said glaring at Hannah.
"Okay, lets go to class." Nate said as I let go of Hannah and walked over to Nate.
"I wasn't going to say your top but now that you mention it, it is cute." Hannah said.
"Hannah, you are wearing the same exact thing as I am. We are in uniforms." I told her from down the hall.
"Oh, we are." Hannah said looking around at everyone. "I didn't know that."
I turned around just as Tess was slapping her own head and walking away dragging Hannah along with her. "Have you ever noticed that Hannah isn't the smartest person in the world." I said to Nate as we walked to class.
"Yeah, she is. What exactly was she going to say?" Nate asked me as we walked past a group of girls who were all glaring at me.
"Um, nothing." I told him a little bit freaked out about the girls all glaring at me. That was weird. What did I ever do to them? I thought as we kept on walking.
"It has to be something or you would have let her say it." Nate said. He had a point there and he knew it.
"Well um," I said while looking around. I saw a girl glaring at me, not a glare glare but a evil I-want-you-to-die glare. "Okay, so have you noticed that every girl in the hall has at least glared at me once." I said looking around the hall at all the girls who were whispering to their friends.
"Yeah, why are they glaring at you? I mean they have known that you have been dating Shane for what three years now? They should really get over that fact that he isn't going to give them the time of day." Nate said looking at all the evil glares that are going our way.
"True, but they never glare like this when its me and Shane together." I said giving all the girls a questioning look saying what-did-I-do-wrong.
"Wow, this is really weird." Nate said as we kept walking until a random girl stopped us and started talking to us.
"So Alex, since when have you been dating Nate?" the girl asked. My mouth dropped open in shock.
"What? I'm not dating Nate. Nate and I are good friends. Did you forget that Shane and I are dating? I wouldn't break up with a guy for his cousin." I told her before walking off dragging Nate with me. "How could people think we are dating? I mean really its not like we are making out in the hall or anything like that. I mean you were walking me to class. I get offers like this everyday and no-one says anything about it." I said getting a little bit mad.
"Well, I don't know why they would be glaring at you, I mean even if you were dating me a glare wouldn't make us break up." Nate said still walking down the hall.
"Yeah, so I haven't really seen Shane all morning. Have you seen him around the school yet?" I asked looking around the hall for him. If he wasn't with me he would be with Jake or Oliver.
"Nope not yet. I got a ride from Oliver because Shane left early. He told me to get a ride with someone because he had to meet up with someone before school. I really thought he was talking about meeting up with you." Nate told me as we reached Mrs. Wiebe's room.
"No, he never meets up with me before school anymore. I really don't talk to him that much anymore. I don't know how but we have grown so far apart. We talk to each other like twice a day and every time I try to call his phone is always busy." I said with a sigh. We really hadn't talked in a really long time.
"Yeah, the only time I see him anymore is practice and at dinner. I'm always up in my room working on songs." Nate told me as we got into the room and took our seats. I turned my seat around so I could face him. I loved that Mrs. Wiebe never made him move.
"So, what's the song you are working on called?" I asked being my very nosy self.
"Well, I don't really have the title worked out yet, but I'm making it a duet. So that we can do the song in the talent show together." Nate said pulling out his notebook that he always had his songs in.
"Can I see the book? You have never actually let me see some of the songs you have wrote." I said reaching for his book.
"Well," Nate said snatching the book into his hands. "I might after I finish the couple of songs that I am working on."
"Why don't you ever let me see your songs. Its not like it a journal of your most deepest darkest secrets. Please just let me see one of the songs." I said trying to get my way as always.
"Well…" Nate said but then Mrs. Wiebe walked into the room and I had to turn back around. Then about five minutes after the bell rang I saw Shane walk into the room with Mitchie. He walked behind me and his lips were shiny.
"Shane, why are your lips shiny and why do they smell like cocoa?" I asked knowing that Mitchie always wore stuff that smelt like cocoa.
Please review and give me any comments on the story.
