▪︎ Chapter Seventeen ▪︎

I walked into my geography class on Monday, my fingers crossed so tight, they started to hurt, hoping Blake hadn't arrived.

Honestly, I hadn't thought of what to tell him or if I was going to tell him the truth yet and though the time might not be much, I could still quickly think up something before he arrived.

My wish was granted, because when I looked around the class, he wasn't there. Phew!

I decided to seat at the front of the class cause that way I could prolong the inevitable. I didn't seat on the first row though, such close proximity to the teacher was scary.

I pulled out a chair on the second row and slid in. As usual, I arranged my stuff on my desk, stationery set, note and textbook stacked to one side.

Some minutes later, the teacher walked in and began the lecture. Blake still hadn't come, okay maybe my genie was a bit too good at granting wishes.

Later into the lecture, the door opened and in walked the devil himself. He acknowledged the teacher and the moment he noticed me, he looked straight into my eyes. I gulped due to the intensity and broke eye contact. Shit.

The teacher droned on about stuff, stuff I didn't listen to. The sound of the bell snapped me out of my thoughts and I rapidly packed my things in an attempt to get to my next class before Blake caught up to me. For the record, I succeeded and was in my next class even before the tardy bell went.

That was the only class we had together before recess so I was safe till now. I was at my locker, putting in my books from the last class when I felt a tap on my shoulder, making me jump and spill the contents of my bag onto the floor.

I turned back, ready to give the culprit a piece of my mind but that piece got stuck in my throat when I saw who it was. No, it wasn't Ryan, I wish. It was Blake. Yay.

"Oh, Blake....Hi" I stuttered "Didn't see you there"

"Sure you didn't" he replied "I'm just gonna go straight to the point. What - "

"Look Blake, whatever I might have said that night is most probably just nothing, I was drunk remember?" I cut him off, crouching to pick up my things.

"That's a lie and you know it" he said also crouching to help me with my stuff "If what you said didn't mean anything, then why were you ignoring me all weekend? You even went as far as sitting in the front seat"

"Technically, it wasn't the front seat" I replied "It was the second -"

"That's not the point!" He exclaimed.

"I don't even know what I said, so why would I be avoiding you" I replied trying to divert his attention.

"Do you really want me to tell you all that you said that night because I can remember and I will tell you?" he asked pointedly.

"Okay, I don't" I backtracked, it was better to keep pretending I didn't know what I said.

"So are you going to tell me or -" he started again.

"There's nothing to tell you Blake" I started, looking up at him but immediately regret it. He looked so concerned, I felt guilty. So I looked back down "I'm not hiding anything. If I did -"

"Why do you have 2 IDs for two different states and different names on them?" He suddenly asked cutting me off.

"What?" I asked confused, looking up to see him looking into my open wallet. "Oh shit"

I rapidly grabbed the wallet from him and tucked it into my bag as I struggled to think of an excuse. God, of all the days to have another ID in my wallet. If my parents ever find out I kept that, they'd kill me. I was supposed to get rid of it when we moved from Las Vegas but I couldn't bring myself to.

"Oh, this....uh, one is a fake ID....for bars! Yes! So that I am allowed to buy drinks" I replied nervously "You know, I'm still underage and all"

"In another state? And besides you don't drink Dani" he pointed out.

"Yeah, I moved here from Las Vegas and how do you know I don't drink?" I struggled "I drink, I'm a drinker"

I stood up as I finished picking up my stuff and Blake did the same. He just wasn't giving up.

"Really Dani, what is going on? You're getting me worried now. You said something about thugs, being happy and -" he started to say but I slammed my palm over his mouth to keep him shut.

"Shhh" I hushed and pulled him away from my locker and into an empty classroom.

"Listen Blake, if I say there's nothing wrong, why won't you just believe me?!" I asked as we entered the class and I shut the door. I was getting frustrated now.

"Because I know you're lying" he replied with the same attitude.

"So what if I'm lying?! How's that any of your business?!" I exclaimed, angry now. Oh what a temper I had. "I'm sorry for ignoring your calls and texts during the weekend but if you think I have to tell you everything just because we're friends then you're wrong!" I finished, breathing heavily and looking straight into his eyes.

I saw a flicker of hurt in them but it quickly turned into anger and for some hours, we just stared at each other. Okay, maybe it was minutes but it felt so long.

"I thought I knew you" was all he said before he walked out of the class, making sure to slam the door. Now I was left alone with my heavy breathing and regret.

I stayed there thinking of what just happened until the bell for the next period rang. I just missed lunch but that was the least of my worries at the moment. I was wondering what I just did in my anger. He was just worried about me and I went ahead to yell at him and hurt him in the process. I was mad and confused, but mostly mad at myself.

As I walked to my next class, the only thing on my mind was to apologize but unfortunately, he didn't show up for the only other class we had together today and I didn't see him all through. I tried texting him, hoping he'd answer then I dragged myself to the rest of my classes and even when my mom came to pick me up, she noticed the bad mood I was in.

"Are you sure you're okay, honey?" She asked for the third time during the ride home.

"I'm fine mom" I replied, my head resting on the car window as I looked outside.

"Alright dear" she replied.

The ride home was silent and as soon as we got home, I went up to my room and when I was done changing into something more comfortable, I checked my phone to see if he had replied to at least one of the numerous texts I had sent him but nothing, no reply, not even an emoji. This was probably how he felt when I was ignoring him and trust me, it sucked.

I decided to call Clover, maybe she saw him after recess.

"Hey Dani" she said as soon as she picked up the call "What's up?"

"Hey Clo, uh by any chance did you see Blake today?" I asked.

"Hmmm, yeah, I think I saw him heading to the gym after my fifth period. Why?" She replied.

"I messed up" I sighed "we had an argument and I think I said hurtful things"

"Awwn, your first fight" she replied.

"This is not the time for your incessant teasing Clover" I replied, running a hand through my hair.

"Sorry" she apologised "hey, now that I think about it, he seemed to be in a bad mood. What happened?"

"I told you, we had an argument" I replied, proceeding to explain to her "I said some things in my drunk state at that party at Thomas' and he was getting all worked up for nothing, we got into an argument and I yelled at him. He got mad, said he thought he knew me, walked out and I haven't seen him since then"

"Wait, you guys met at the party? Why didn't you tell me" she asked, going off track again.

"Again, that's not the point Clo, now focus or so help me God, I will drop this call right now" I threatened even though I knew I wouldn't do that because I was the one who needed help.

"Okay, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Uh, I think you should apologize" she said making me roll my eyes.

"No shit, I've sent him numerous texts to which he hasn't replied and he missed my calls, what if he's so mad, he doesn't want to talk to me ever again?" I replied.

"Nah, I don't really know Blake but I don't think he's that kind of person, maybe he just needs some time to cool off" she replied.

"I sure hope so" I replied.

"Just stop thinking about it too much and give him till tommorow, he'll come around" she assured.

"Okay then" I said.

"Now, about my Friday night" she started.
