What harm can it do to spend a little time with him.
Chapter Nine
Every Girl Wants A Bad Boy
We go back to school ready for our next class. Neither Chris or Amber mention Logan again, so I don’t either. At lunch all Caroline and Rachel want to know are details. Everyone is now talking about it apparently. But no one really knows why it happened. To be honest I don’t really know myself. I could take a guess but it doesn’t make sense. Me and Logan aren’t a thing and even if we were, Chris was just being friendly. Did I even want to be in a relationship with someone who lost it that quickly for no reason? When Jack and Ryan joined our lunch table I thought the questions would start all over again but they didn’t say anything about it.
“So you want to start to practice driving later on today?” Chris asks me quietly.
“Ummm I’m not too sure I’m up for it today actually. But later on in the week maybe?” I was looking forward to it, but after this morning I can’t seem to settle. Driving may not be such a good idea right now. My mind is everywhere but here at school. Actually it’s not everywhere. That’s a lie. It’s only on one thing.
One person.
Logan.
I haven’t seen him since this morning. Since I told him to go and I just don’t feel right. I want to text him, but each time I get my phone out either Amber or Chris is watching me like a hawk. I didn’t want to text him back at first. I was still angry he had done what he had. But as the day had wore on I just wanted to see him.
“Ok no worries. I’ve got to go talk to one of my teachers about something but I’ll see you at the end of the day yeah?” I nod and he bends down to kiss the top of my head before walking off with the guys. I blush because I can feel everyone at the table watching us. Amber is just looking confused however.
“Awe you two are so cute together” Caroline says leaning forward with her elbows on the table.
“What me and Chris? No I already told you guys it’s not like that.” I say while fiddling with my fingers.
“Why not? He’s hot, your hot, you’re both single. And I know he comes across like a player but actually he’s a sweet guy.” Rachel says while taking a bite out of her apple.
“I don’t know, I suppose I just wanted to concentrate on getting done with this school year and settling in before I thought about boys.” I know I sound lame but I don’t want a deep and meaningful in the lunch room about my life right now.
“Hey, I’m not saying you have to marry the guy. But this is your one shot at high school. Live it. Have fun. Let your hair down. And trust me if he looked at me the way he looks at you, I would so be all over that.” Rachel answers with smirk and a wink, which makes us all laugh.
“You’re too busy being all over Ryan, to even notice if anyone was looking at you anyway.” Amber remarks to which me and Caroline both nod our heads. I have noticed that she does have a little crush on Ryan, but he is totally oblivious.
“Well I mean what do I have to do to get his attention? Everyone else knows!!” She says sounding frustrated.
“Ever tried just telling him?” I say. She looks at me as if I have completely gone insane, but the bells rings which snaps us out of our conversation and we each head off to our classes.
Sitting with the girls at the lunch table talking about boys, fashion and normal things felt good. It took my mind off other things. But now I’m on my own back in classes I’m back to thinking about Logan again. I expect to see him in biology again but he skipped that too. That means he’s been gone the whole day.
I quickly pull my phone out on the way to Amber's car at the end of class and type a short message to him.
Me : Apology not accepted yet. But yes we can meet.
I put my phone away and keep it on silent so they won’t hear it go off and ask who it’s from. I feel like they are my friends now and I don’t want to lie to them, but I don’t think after what happened this morning they would be happy with me texting him. Especially Chris. When I get there, Amber and Chris are already talking. They look up at me and smile when I get there.
“Hey, so in the morning I have to run a quick errand for my mum so is it ok if Chris comes to pick you up?” Amber asks. She seems a little worried about something.
“Oh that’s fine no problem, but I can just just get aunt Sara to ....” I start to say but get cut off off Chris.
“Hey it’s no problem. I’m coming that way anyway. I practically pass your house on the way from mine.” Chris says while pulling me in for a side hug. I don’t think I’ve ever let a guy be so touchy with me before. You know, one that’s not a boyfriend. But it’s not like I have loads of experience in that department either.
“Ok, well if
