December 11th.
"Please it won't take more than fifteen- twenty minutes max! Harper can come with me!" I beg to Mrs. Telson.
"Letting two friends leave school? I can't trust that either." she shakes her head.
I grown. "I finished this project last week! No one else is done but Harper!"
"Mr. O'Connel is done."
I shut my eyes.
She can't be serious.
I had been avoiding Shane all week! There was a purpose for that! It can't be ruined by some teacher's circumstances.
"Shane, come." Mrs. Telson calls Shane from the back of the class.
"Would care to accompany Ms. Clair to her house?"
Shane raises an eyebrow at me. "I forgot my gym clothes." I mumble.
"Course you did." He rolls his eyes.
"Mr. O'Connel?" Mrs. Telson asks.
"Sure. I'll make sure she doesn't go anywhere else but home and back." He nods.
She hands the note to Shane and dismisses us.
Personally I think releasing a guy to join a girl at her house is worse than two friends going together.
Frustrated, I unlock my car and get in.
"Are you alright?" Shane asks when he joins me.
This car suddenly feels three times smaller.
"F*cking fantastic." I huff, speeding off.
"Wow, haven't heard you really swear since-" "The last time we left school in a car together?" I retort.
"Can you be anymore of a bitch right now?"
I scoff. "I'm not being a bitch."
"Then what is this bitch-like mood that's possessing Bridgit right now?"
"Nothing- It's just- It's Tuesday." I say the first thing that comes to mind.
"Really? I had no idea." He rolls his eyes.
"Don't be a smartass. My dad is off on Tuesdays."
