Chapter 4
They finally reached the schools, but they had to part ways the Jr. High was on the left side of the street and the high school was on the right.
Both boys stopped for a second, panting from the running, and Davis hugged Tai quickly, and ran off towards the school.
Tai smiled, as he heard the bell ring , reminding him he was late and he made a dash for his school.
-Inside Jr. High-
Davis tiptoed in the building trying to be as quiet as possible.
"I can't get caught, I just can't" he thought to himself.
He walked down the hallway towards his class,made it to his classroom.
He was about to reach for the door when he felt a hand on his shoulder, he tensed slightly then relaxed.
He heard his teacher's voice.
"Your Late AGAIN Davis..." she said sternly.
"Yes, i know and I'm sorry, Mrs. Johnson."He stated apologetically.
The teacher sighed and released her hold on Davis, this made him calm down more.
"Get inside Davis" She ordered.
He did as he was told and opened the door and was about to make his way to his seat when he heard.
"One more time being late Davis and I'll have to call your parents"
He froze for a minuet and kept walking, taking his seat behind Kari and next to T.k
He was calm on the outside but freaking out on the inside.
-Inside the High school-
Tai was sitting there daydreaming as usual.
He was also late for school and got a detention.
"Coach is going to kill me" he thought to himself, as he looked out the window and watched the clouds roll in.
"Wait, why do i care ? its just stupid practice, I'm already the captain." he continued his thought.
Across the room Matt passed a note to Sorra,
"Sorra,
Do you know whats going on with Tai?
He seems really distracted...I'm kinda worried"
Sorra read the note and sighed, she knows Matt was crushing on Tai but she also knows Tai is madly in love with Davis.
"Hopefully Matt will realized this and just want Tai to be happy, that is if Davis returns his feelings at all." she thought sadly and replied to the note.
"No mat, I'm sorry I don't"
Matt read the note and put it away sadly, before the teacher could see.
He sighed and stared over at his spiky-haired crush.
Davis was looking out the window as well
"It's going to storm" he thought and shivered involuntarily.
"I CAN'T be late getting home. I HAVE to have dinner ready when dad gets home" he thought with fear, as the rain started to pour.
He sighed.
-4:00-
School went by relatively quickly.
Tai was out of detention, he brought and umbrella just in case it rained.
He was about to head home when he glanced across the street to see Davis sitting on the steps of the school with his head in his hands.
Tai crossed the street and walked up to Davis, kneeling in front of him
"Everything okay Dai?" he asked.
Davis' head shot up he flinched slightly.
"Oh its you Tai," he said relieved
"Yes, i was just about to make a run for it." Tai laughed softly and grabbed his hand and hoisted him up.
Davis blushed at the contact.
"No need, I'll walk you" Tai offered with a smile.
"Oh no, i don't want to be a burden" Tai hugged Davis.
"Your NEVER a burden Dai" he said using his nickname for Davis, which made Davis blush and smile.
By the time they reached Davis' house it was 4:15, two hours before his dad was due home.
He opened the door to make sure his dad hadn't arrived early.
"You can come in for a little bit if you'd like, Tai" he offered shyly.
Tai accepted with a grin.
They sat at the kitchen table while Davis was making dinner.
He gave Tai a plate and served a little for himself.
He left the rest for his father in the microwave.
"This is great Dai! I didn't know you could cook!" Tai said when he took a bite.
Davis blushed. When they were all finished they went upstairs to watch a movie.
Davis heard the "Thud" of the door and jumped.
"He's home" Davis thought frantically, tears starting to well up in his eyes.
Tai noticed this.
"Whats wrong Dai?" Tai asked, concerned.
"Hide in the closet." Davis instructed.
Tai looked totally confused he was about to reply when he heard footsteps on the stairs.
Davis pleaded with his eyes, still on the brink of tears.
Tai did as he was told, went in the closet behind a stack of clothes and shut the door.
He could still see out of the small crack in the closet door.
He saw Davis spin around in the direction of his bedroom door.
"DAVIS!" Davis flinched.
