Chapter 31 Intruder Alert
At school Dana was listening to all what her friend was saying to her, while Amy observed how she was paying full attention to every word she said, which probably wasn't the same when she was in class. Sometimes Dana would start daydreaming on her less favorite classes and would eventually Amy what was discussed in class. After she finished Dana spoke her mind.
"You deserve to have a song written about you. Which female artist do you prefer? I would say Taylor Swift. I like her a lot."
"That's funny, i don't think any female singer would sing a song about me. "
But who would you pick? There's also Selena Gomez or Ariana Grande. They're awesome too."
"Beyoncé. But that's not the point. After the kiss i just left, i had no idea what to say."
"You were shocked, that's understandable. "
"You think he does? He hasn't spoken to me in all day. "
Dana turned her head where Jonah was seated with his friends, in a way that wasn't too obvious. He looked his normal self, joking and laughing with his friends
"Then why don't you speak to him?"
"And say what? Sorry, i ran away after you kissed me.I don't know how to start."
" You can start saying hi. And then everything will be easier. But don't wait too much."
Jeremy appeared in that moment and came close to the girls. He was carrying his tray carrying a coke and a sandwich on his hands.
"Hello to you two. Dana, I was asked to tell you the meeting was changed to Wednesday, just for this week. See you there. "
"What was that about?" Amy asked when he left.
"On Friday i went to a poetry club, people read their poems to everyone. I read an ad on a bulletin board and I decided to go since I was curious. He was there too. "
"I had no idea you wrote poetry, when i will be able to listen to it?"
"Is not as I'm Emily Dickinson or Sara Teasdale, I'm just goofing off. But I'll invite you, I promise. But now your priority is to talk to Jonah, if possible, today." Dana said pointing the table with her finger.
Amy was looking for herself at the bathroom mirror, she was about to look for Jonah when the school day was over and somehow, she wanted to look good. She was practicing what she was about to say when unexpectedly the door was opened. She cursed her bad luck as she saw who it was. Jenna came inside with as if she was on a runway walk and stopped in front of her.
"So, i heard your date with Jonah came out well." She said facing her and placing a hand on her hip. "
"I see gossip runs very fast on this school, everyone is right to say it. "
"Luckily for me not all gossip does, like the stink bomb that was thrown at my house while was I taking sun close to the pool. You can imagine my surprise when it happened. Thank god no one knows about it, or everyone would be making fun of me now."
"Sorry to hear that. "
"Yeah right you are, i'm sure somehow you had something to do with that as i told you that the soccer team has a book in which they earn points from the girls they date . "
"I had nothing to do with it.Is that what you wanted to tell me?"
"Not really, i wanted to say something else.Enjoy your time with Jonah, it won't be last long. Guys like Jonah have girls around him all the time, eventually he'll get bored with you and get a new girl toy. That's what you are to him. "
"Like it happened with you, right? You talk by experience, i guess. I heard you only had one date together.Guess he got bored really quickly."
Amy grabbed her stuff and left the bathroom, leaving Jenna shocked with her response.
She knew the soccer team had practice that day, so she walked to the court and there she looked around to find him. He was talking to the coach, then turned around to see her. He ran to where she was.
"What a surprise, I didn't expect to see you here. " he said combing his hair backwards.
"I needed to talk to you about what happened on Friday. " She said after taking a long breath.
"The kiss?" He asked and she nodded. "What about it?"
"I'm sorry I left the way i did after the kiss, i didn't know how to react. I was nervous."
"Good, I thought I crossed the line made you upset. I wanted to look for you and apologize but a part of me thought you would punch me. "
" So, are we okay.Right?"
"Not exactly, do you remember what i said to you? I was serious, I like you. A lot. "
His hand grabbed hers, and with his thumb he started caressing her hand.Amy felt goosebumbs at his touch. She dreamed several times that he would declare his love for her, but she never expect it would really happen. All she could think of was her new ability, and how he would react to it, if she became his girlfriend. She wouldn't be capable of hiding it, she always wanted an honest relationship. Just like her parents' marriage.
"I like you too, but before formalizing i need to tell you something. "
"What is it?"
"I can't tell you now. Your practice will start soon, and my brother will come pick me up soon but maybe we can see each other tomorrow."
"Perfect. After school. "
They both said goodbye to each other, and Amy's phone started ringing with Sean's call. She walked to the parking lot, and to her surprise he wasn't on his own. Ms. Reynolds was also there.
"Aims, thank god you came. I was trying to convince Ms. Reynolds to come for dinner with us, but she is refusing. Use your charm and convince her. " He said.
"Please, Ms. Reynolds. It would be really nice if you joined us. "
" I'm sorry, but i can't I had an issue with my car and it's being fixed. "
"That's no problem, we can take you home afterwards. " Amy insisted.
The Wilkes siblings were not going to accept a no for an answer, so Ms. Reynolds had no other chance to accept. They drived to a Dennys that wasn't too far away.
"Ms. Reynolds, thank you so much for accepting to come. It means a lot to me. " Amy said when they were seated.
"It's a pleasure hon, but this wasn't really necessary. " Ms. Reynolds said.
"Of course it is, you have supported me a lot and i really appreciate it. If you excuse me, i need to use the restroom. " Amy said excusing herself.
"Thanks for coming. I was really hoping to see you again. " Sean said when they were left alone.
"You did?" She asked raising an eyebrow.
"Yes, I had fun on Friday. And hope we can see each other again, but next time only the two of us and in a date plan. "
"You're asking me out?" She asked surprised.
"Yes, unless you say no and i'll make out an excuse to not feel so ridiculous about it. "
"Are you sure about it? Wouldn't your sister feel akward if you date a teacher in her school?"
"No, I spoke with her and she's cool with the idea. " Sean answered with a smirk on his face.
"So her going to the restroom was a trick to have us alone?"
"No, that was her really needing to go. I would really be honored if you accept. You're pretty and smart, i believe we would both have a good time together.
"Ok, I accept. Let's change the subject. Amy is coming right now. "
Sean and Amy left Ms. Reynolds at her home and drove to theirs. As they walked to the apartment Sean was telling her about how he asked her out, and Amy looked thrilled.
"So glad she said yes, you two are perfect for each other. "
"Chill sis, we are only having a date not getting married. " He laughed.
"Maybe in the future you will. "
Sean kissed his sister a goodnight kiss and walked to his room to get ready to go to bed. A small shining object on the floor was seen and he picked it up. It was a small loop ring, and it made him concerned. If he knew it belonged to Amy he would just give it to her, but he knew very well his sister's jewelry and she didn't have loop rings. That meant, someone got inside when they were out. And he knew who was it .
