I'm Sorry chapter 5
"So this Kurt is..." Ian started to say after they had gotten far enough form Natalie and Dan to not be heard by them.
"He's just my friend. I met him in Africa. You know.. During the hunt," she replied. They continued to walk for a few minutes, unable to think of anything else to say.
"So... Are you and Natalie returning to London this week or..." she waited for Ian to reply. Ian smiled, obviously not trying to hide it.
"Father wanted us to start school in United States. According to him... there are more Cahills in the United States so he thinks that it will be a good experience for us. At least that's what he says. I bet he probably just wants us away from London so that Natalie and I can't disgrace the Lucians any more than we already have," Ian replied, looking away from Amy.
Amy's shock caused her right leg to trip over her right. She would have fell to the ground if Ian hadn't caught her right on time. His arms gripped her waist tightly, making sure that she would not fall. For a while, the just held that position, unable to move.
"Ummm... Th-thanks. Y-you can let g-go of m-me now," Amy stammered as her cheeks burned a bright pink color.
Ian smiled, "Would you like me to drop you then Amy?" He fake dropped her, catching her just before she hit the ground. Amy screamed slightly.
Ian helped her to her feet, searching for Natalie and Dan to make sure that they weren't watching. He didn't want his little sister blackmailing him with stuff about Ian's love life, especially if she decides to post it on Facebook.
"So you're staying in Boston?" Amy said when she had calmed herself down.
"Yeah. Natalie will go to the middle school and I'll go to the high school. I can' t believe it! I'm going to a PUBLIC school. I can't tolerate going to school with a bunch of peasants," he complained.
"Actually, the other kids aren't that bad. I'm sure that you'll fit in," Amy replied, though she wasn't quite sure if she was happy with the idea of having Ian in the same school as her.
"Oh is that so? Is Kurt in your school too? Is THAT why you think the school is so good?" Ian asks.
"No," Amy replied quickly, "I didn't even know that he was here in Boston. He must be just visiting. He doesn't go to my school,"
"Of course..." Ian said, not having any other way to respond.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Amy asked, more angrily then she meant it to be. He obviously thinks I'm lying, she thought to herself.
"Nothing," he replied, continuing to walk. "How about we get something to eat? Do you know any good restaurants?"
"Ummm... Sure. How about we go to the Hard Rock Cafe?" she suggested.
"Alright... Where is it?" Ian said, though he wasn't really sure about eating while listening to loud music.
"It's on Clinton Street. Not that far. We should find Dan and Natalie after that. It's starting to get dark,"
Ian smiles to himself. He had heard Kurt say earlier to some guys that he would be at the Hard Rock Cafe tonight. I wonder if he'll be jealous...
