Chapter 4
Carlos POV
'Where is he?', I thought to myself. I had just came out from my English class and was around looking for Logan in his English Honors, but the teacher said that he left a while ago. I nodded and stepped out into the halls, walking down the flights of stairs trying to get as fast as I could to the parking lot. I came out of the front door of the school and walked to the student parking lot, not knowing that I did not know which was Logan's car. Surprised enough, I saw no sight of his presence. So, the only thing I could think of was to call his phone.
I was waiting so long for him to answer his phone, but no one picked up. So, it took me to the voicemail for me to leave a message.
"Hey, Logan. Uhmm, its Carlos. I'm right out at the parking lot, waiting. Call me back when you get this, hopefully soon. Bye." I hung up and waited patiently at the parking lot. Minutes which felt like hours passed and still no sign nor call from Logan. I was starting to get a little impatient. But I thought that he had something important to take care of, so I just waited. I waited, and waited, and waited until the bell for 4th period rang. I looked at my was and shook my head because Logan didn't show up. I was wondering to myself as I was walking back into the school. 'Why would he blew me off? Did he have something more important to do?'. Little thoughts were in my head, but I had to shake it off because I was already stepping into class.
Logan POV
Oh god, I'm so tired from practice that I couldn't even lift my leg up with my arms. I felt like my guts were going to fall out of my ass. But I had to suck it up and get ready for class before the bell rang. I went into the locker room and took off all the heavy gear that was on me and placed them back on the racks where they belonged. I sat down on one of the benches and peeked into my bag when I saw my phone was lit. I took it out of my gym bag and held it in front of my face. It read "1 Missed Call from Carlos Garcia. 1 New Voicemail". I thought to myself, 'Carlos... what did Carlos call me-", my eyes widened so large I thought it was going to fall out of its sockets.
"OH SHIT!" I exclaimed. 'Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit. I forgot about having lunch with Carlos!' I thought. I hurriedly grabbed my stuff, placed all my clothes into my gym bag as fast as I could and ran out of the locker room, even though Kendall and James were asking me questions.
"Dude, where you-" I cut James off.
"CAN'T TALK! GOTTA GO!" I yelled back while running out of the gymnasium.
Suddenly, the bell rang for us to get back into class. I stopped in my tracks and cursed at myself because I had broken my promise to Carlos that we were going to have lunch together. I hope he isn't too mad at me, but I am not going to keep my hopes up.
4th period came and I was sitting in my desk, my mind was wandering off and I wasn't even paying attention. All I could think about was Carlos, and what he might think of me because I ditched him. But, he'll understand right? I mean, it was for a good reason. I had hockey practice after all, and thank God I went because I was this close to be kicked off the team. Though, it wasn't like me to doze of during class. And also, I sat at the front so the teacher could see my every move. And what a bad time it was.
"Logan! Stop dazing off and tell me what the answer is to this Mathematical equation." Mr. Harper scolded. I carefully examined the equation, and luckily math was one of my strongest fields, it was easy for me to find the answer.
"X=4y over the sum of pi, divided by the exponent given to the coefficient of the sum of pi, therefore getting the answer of X, which is 56." I confidently explained.
"Yes, that is correct. Good job, Logan." Mr. Harper responded suspiciously, while writing the answer with chalk on the chalkboard. I was relieved that I got the answer, so now that I don't have to be called on again, and I won't be interrupted.
The last bell had rung to dismiss us from school. I was gathering my stuff at my desk when Mr. Harper called me over to his desk.
"Yes, sir?" I asked.
"Logan. Never in my years of this class have I seen you doze off. Is there something wrong?" he asked, concerned.
"Oh, no. There's nothing wrong. Just lost my train of thought, that's all." I faked an excuse. I was actually very good at faking excuses.
"Well, okay. But if there's anything thats bothering you, you know where to find me."
"Thanks, sir."
I walked out of the classroom and focused my mind on one thing, looking for Carlos. I was looking, both left and right, down the crowded hallways and made my way through the crowds of students, who were completely pushy and obnoxious. I ran out to the front gates and I caught sight of Carlos going into his car. I yelled to try and get his attention while running towards his car, which was already driving out the driveway.
"Carlos! CARLOS!" I yelled, raising my hand to try and get his visual attention. But none of it succeeded. He left from plain sight after his mom went out into the highway. I felt rejected because usually people would answer me whenever I had a question, or they would listen to me when I had something to say. I felt really sad because I had just made a new friend, and soon enough, turned him down and made him disappointed in me. I was going to call him, but I figured he needed some space. I hope he's not too mad, which for sure I know he is.
