Chapter Twelve
I awoke in an exhilarating mood. For the first time that I can remember in so long, I am smiling. It’s because I am so happy to be going back to school. I don’t know what will be waiting for me there, but I need some kind of normalcy back in my life. This is just what I need to turn things around. I grab my jacket and books, wow I forgot how heavy my books are. Funny how just two weeks off and everything is forgotten.
The drive to school went so much quicker than normal. Maybe it was because I actually wanted to go or maybe it was the music. I love to listen to music and I really haven’t been able to lately. Joan Jett is my music of choice for the morning ride, fast and motivating for the time being.
I walk in the building and do a double take. I forgot that no one has seen me since the ‘accident’. Everyone is staring, I can feel their eyes boring into me, even the people behind me. Lea of coarse comes running to me.
“Let’s go, CC, screw these people.” She flashes one of those grins at me and pulls me by the hand over to my locker, all the time flipping off the people behind me. That girl has a ‘set’ let me tell you.
“Thank you, Lea.” I couldn't have meant it more. I put everything in my locker and turn around. There he is. I try not to stare but how can I not. Danny is my love, my life. I want so much to run to him, to tell him I'm sorry and I choose him, but I can't. I stand here staring like a deer caught in headlights. His normal look is so captivating. I love how he dresses. He has a long sleeved black thermal shirt on with a white t-shirt over it, the light blue denim pants and of course those work boots I love so much.
He glances and my breath catches. His eyes met mine and I feel the flutter start. I can tell he wants to walk over to me but just like me he is afraid of the rejection. Now it will be my turn to die a little every time he looks at me. Then the flutter fades. I need to remember Chris. I close my locker and walk away. I am getting so good at that lately it is almost becoming second nature. Sad but true.
The rest of the morning went smoothly. Well as smoothly as it could. After Lea had her moment this morning, Jenny set every one straight in second period. The crazy girl I loved jumped on her desk and shouted as loud as she could to the whole class, if they had something to say to just say it already. I laughed but now she has detention for the week. After that I think people just figured it was best not to bother me.
