-Monday morning-

I woke up. I didn't feel like getting out of bed, just because I was tired and lazy. I check my phone, I have a message from Sarah and a message from Blake.

Sarah: Hey, Girl are we still hanging out after school today?

Grace: Yes, or do you have other plans? If you do it's fine, we could always reschedule.

Sarah: No, I don't have other plans. Today's fine.

Grace: Okay, see you in a few minutes.

Sarah: Okay, see you.

Then I check my message from Blake.

Blake: Hey, Good morning, lovely.

Grace: Aww, hey and good morning.

Blake: Guess what?

Grace: What?

Blake: I made the football team on Friday

Grace: That's so awesome. Blakey, I'm so happy for you!

Blake: Thanks, I'm going to get ready. I'll see you at school, darling.

Grace: Okay, see you at school, Boo Bear.

Blake: Bye, love.

Grace: Bye.

I got up out of bed and went over to my mirror. 'Wow, I look weird when I first wake up.'  I then went over to my closet and picked out my blue tank top that said 'cool vibes' on it and my shorts, I also decided to wear my blue converse again. I threw on a couple of pieces of jewelry, such as a necklace, a bracelet, and a few rings. And I put on a little makeup.

I grabbed my backpack and went downstairs.

"Hey mum," I said. "Hey, good morning," my mum said. "Good morning," I said. "Here, I made you some pancakes and bacon," she said. "Thanks," I said as I put my backpack down and sat at the counter. I finished my breakfast a few minutes later. I said goodbye to my mum and started walking towards the front door. I exited the front door and closed the door behind me. I saw Sarah waiting for me, and I walked up to her. We walked together to the bus stop and the bus arrived soon after.

We went on the bus and sat on our original seat, which was the fourth seat from the front on the left side. Of course, as soon as we sat down, Sarah brought up Blake and I's date. I told her that it went really well and that he made me feel so safe and loved whenever I was with him. She smiled, and I smiled back.

About 10 minutes later, we arrived at our high school, Oakwood high. Then, Sarah and I spotted Blake a few feet away. Sarah and I have first period together, which was Pre-Calculus. But, Blake was also in that class. Sarah and I usually walk to all of our classes together, but today Blake looked like he wanted to walk to class together. So, I asked Sarah if she was okay with it, and she said 'No, worries. See you in class!' she really is the best!

Sarah went the other way, and Blake started walking towards me. I walked towards him as well. He smiled at me, and I smiled back. You could just see that he was trying to be cute. Which was working.

We kept getting closer until we were facing each other. "Hey," he said. "Hey," I said. We smiled again. He was now standing next to me, he took my hand, so we were now holding hands. I love it when we hold hands. We started walking to class together. A few people were looking at us, but not many people staring. Sarah saw us, she smiled at me and mouthed the words 'Good job!' I smiled and turned my attention back to Blake.

A couple of minutes later, we arrived at the door to our first period. Our grip let go, so we were not holding hands anymore. That's kind of good because my hands started getting a little sweaty, but I didn't want to mention that to him.

He opened the door for me, and said "After you, Grace," and I said "Thanks, Blakey," I got inside the room, and I sat next to Sarah at our usual table. Once I sat down I started thinking, he doesn't usually call me 'Grace' he usually calls me 'Darling' or 'Lovely'. Then, I realized something. He only calls me that when we're alone. When we were around my mum before our date, he didn't call me 'Darling, or lovely or anything special.' He called me that once, she had shut the door and went inside.

That's weird.

Something definitely seems off about that.

I whispered to Sarah to let her know what I was thinking.

She said it seemed a little suspicious. I agreed with her.

Blake was acting weird.
