head no, because honestly,
I’ve never seen anyone better looking. I let out a giggle.
‘ What a jealous buffoon. ’ It's
so cute though.
"That's what I thought." His chuckle vibrated against my back as he
leaned his face down and kissed me on the cheek. "You look
beautiful today by the way."
"Thanks, you're looking beautiful today too." I joked getting into
the car. He gave me the playful stink-eye as he made his way around
to get into the driver's side after shutting my door. Tristan held
my hand the entire way to school; it's hard to believe how much has
changed in just a matter of days. Things between us felt so,
natural. It's hard to explain it's like we don't even have to try
to get along with one another. Our different personalities seem to
mesh well together.
Pulling into a parking spot right next to Max's Suburban, Tristan
gave my hand a reassuring squeeze before he brought the back of it
up to his lips. He could probably feel the stress omitting off me
in waves. Think anyone noticed both Tristan and I missed school
yesterday? I can just imagine the gossip now.
"Don't look so worried." Tristan insisted with a smile. "Luke
already let the cat out the bag." His eyes went wide in mock
horror. "Everyone knows you're my girl and we're together." Oh god,
what does he mean by everyone knows? Everyone as in all the guys or
everyone as in the entire freaking school?
I heard the driver door close at the same time my door was yanked
open. Max practically dragged me out the truck, twirling me around
like a rag doll in an embrace "Aww our wittle Tristan's all grown
up and got himself a girlfriend!" Max cried out dramatically
causing people to stare at us strangely.
Thanks a lot Max. For those who didn't hear the news from Luke,
surely didn't miss it escaping from Max's blabbermouth. "That's
quite enough, put her down." Tristan laughed at my horrified
expression. Nice to know he gets a kick out of my
humiliation.
"We gotta go. Coach called a meeting before homeroom, Tris." Luke
said coming over and slapping him on the shoulder. "Wants to go
over this year's plays."
"Ok." Tristan answered with a slight nod of the head, he looked a
little disappointed. "You going to be alright?" He asked me with
concern.
"I'll be fine, I'm sure none of my stalkers will get me while I'm
walking to homeroom." I joked giving him a big smile to reassure
him I'd be fine.
“That's not funny." Tristan warned with a serious glare. "Maybe you
should come with me to the meeting. I'll get coach to give you a
pass if we're late."
He can't be serious can he? "I'm not going to the soccer meeting,
I'm not even on the team!" I squealed in disbelief. "I promise I'll
be fine."
Tristan stood there and stared at me for a few minutes
contemplating on what he wanted to do. "Just be careful." He
whispered leaning down to hug me then pecking me lightly on the
lips.
I watched as he pulled away and walked off towards the soccer
field. The rest of the team seemed to be over there waiting on
their captain. Coach wasn't on the field yet. Be careful...of what?
We're in school for heaven's sake! What could possibly get me while
I'm walking to homeroom? Then again, let me not speak too soon. The
girls at this school can be vicious, so I've heard. Now that they
know Tristan is off the market I can only picture what will happen
to me.
Walking into the school I tried holding my head up high as I
happened to stroll by Jewel's locker. She was standing around with
her usual minions. Let's just say if looks could kill, I'd be
laying dead on the ground. The amount of evil daggers thrown my way
as they mumbled under their breath about me was chilling.
Stopping at my locker to grab my things, I passed by the main
office on my way to homeroom. Just as I walked by, I heard my name
being called by Principal White.
"Ahh Annalise, just the person I was looking for." Principal White
lilted happily. "I've got a huge favor to ask of you."
