Beep. Beep. Beep.
I woke up to the sound of my phone. I got a text from Eli.
'Morning, Blue Eyes. Pick you up in 20'
Eli's driving me to school? That's a great way to talk to me about the paper, in a place where I can't run away. Well, better get ready.
Fifteen minutes later, I was downstairs, eating my pop tart. Since my mom barely gets up until noon now, I've had to start making my own breakfast. I heard a car horn outside and saw a hearse in the driveway. That's him.
I grabbed my backpack and opened the door. He was leaning on the passenger door with his arms crossed around his chest. He eyed me for a second, smirked, backed off the car and opened the door for me. I smiled and muttered a small "thanks" before getting in. Once he got into the car, he turned on the engine and started driving towards the school.
I didn't dare look at him. I guess I was scared if he was looking back. And he was. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see him glancing over at me, the smirk never leaving his face. I'm still wondering about what he did to my paper. A few short minutes later, we pulled up into the parking lot and got out of the hearse. Nervously, I started walking towards the school, hearing Eli's footsteps behind me. Luckily, Adam came over to Eli and started talking about a new issue of their comic book. Thank god. I got to my locker and grabbed all of my books for the day. The only class I have with Eli is English and that was two hours later. I guess I could ignore him until then.
Sorry for not writing much. Had bad breakup with boyfriend today at school. In total heartbreak. Promise to make it up to you guys tomorrow.
And also thanks for all the great reviews! They helped me feel a whole lot better.
