The Woods by L. P (moboreader txt) 📖

great Sandra and I had similar traits, we loved the same food, and both had a passion for Jeeps. We talked the whole lunch until Henry decided to sit at our table, which wasn’t a problem for me, but a problem to most of the girls at the school

“Hey” Henry said while all his friends joined him “what are you doing here?” I asked staring at Sandra “oh, wow, last time I checked it was a free world” he laughed, and so did his friends. I laughed back and replied making sure he heard every word “and last time I checked I didn’t invite you here” Sandra laughed, so did his friends he also laughed “what did I ever do to you” while biting another piece of his pizza. “Everything” he smiled and continued eating, by the time he was done I learned most of his friends names, Noah his best friend, Aiden his other close friend, Caden his brother. We all talked and got to know each other, I tried not to make eye contact with Henry. When the group of boys was done they looked at us and looked at Henry. Before they left I learned Sandra was Henry, and Cadens younger sister. “There is a party, you should come, and my sister knows where it is, it’ll be tomorrow” Henry said while walking towards the hall.

A party! I have never been to a party all these years staying in New York I have never been to a party. I remember my very best friend, Lisa she was always there for me, even when I used to get bullied in school, she stood tall around me, just as if she was my protector, my only savior, as I thought of her and our memories I shed a tear without knowing, before anyone knew I wiped it away. On my way back to class all I could think about was her. When I reached class I soon found out that I was just about a minute late, but my teacher let it past since it was my first day. 

All eyes on me as I walked to an empty seat next to this surprisingly beautiful girl, she wasn't rude like all the other girls that looked at me, instead she seemed kind, as she smiled at me while paying attention to the teacher. "You're new here?" She said while turning her head gentile towards my direction, "what made me give it away?" I laughed a little in my head, it was obvious I didn't dress like everyone else with my blue ripped jeans, and black t-shirt while ever other girl had on a skirt, dress, or what looks like a very expensive jeans. As I was about to turn away she told me about how she was me in her junior year, when she first moved here, no one liked her, she said maybe because she took most of the girls boyfriend attention away from them and on to her. "Sophia and Lavender would you like to share to the class" Mrs. Carson said while turning back to the board, when I was about to answer Sophia spoke up "actually yes I would love to share with the class" when she got up no doubt about it that every boy in that classroom looked at her while she got in front of the room. 

" I wanted to say that, the arteries are major blood vessels connected to your heart. The pulmonary artery carries blood from the right side of the heart to the lungs to pick up a fresh supply of oxygen. The aorta is the main artery that carries oxygen-rich blood from the left side of the heart to the body". As she said that she walked quickly to her desk while smiling back at me. The teacher looked like she was in shock still standing there with her mouth open, when she finally realized that the class was staring she told Sophia and I not to talk in class again and began her assignment.  

It felt like forever but the bell finally ringed, when I got out of class I heard Sophia shouting my name, "Hey Lavender!" I turned around waiting for her to catch up "me and my friend Sandra are heading towards a coffee shop, I need caffeine to get me threw this day, wanna come?" I was confused for a second but snap back to reality "Sandra" I cleared my throat "you know Sandra?" She looked at me surprised "yes I know her glad to see you guys meet, so are you coming?" She stood there waiting for an answer, I told her" I'll check with my mom to see If she needs me, but where is this coffee shop?" She shook her head gave me her number and told me she will text me the address before a boy came towards her hugged her around the waist before turning around and seeing me, It was Henry. 

I felt mad and pissed off he was totally flirting with me and he had a girlfriend the worst part of it all was I like Sophia she was nice, and reminded me of my best friend. I almost ran to my car embarrassed that I thought he could actually have feelings for me. When I have gotten in the car ready to leave Henry came over with an amused look. I couldn’t believe he thought this was funny, treating girls like this, like they have a chance then boom! I’m taken. “Jealous” he laughed “she is a very best friend, nothing more” I look up in disgust “that hug seamed more” I looked down at my steering wheel. “She asked me to make her boyfriend jealous; it also worked out for me, because you are also jealous.” He turned around and walked towards Sandy while I screamed out “I so am not!”     

While I was in the car I decided to text mom to see if I still can go to the coffee shop, when she replied yes, my sister opened the car door and started laughing. I looked at her confused while she finally told me what was funny. “Sometimes” she said in-between breaths “I can’t believe you’re my sister” I laughed knowing what she was talking about “he said I was jealous so I had to say I wasn’t when I was about to he walked away so I had to yell. She kept on laughing then finally told me “you like him”. I looked at her confused, do I like him? That’s all I thought about till I drop her off, and headed towards the coffee shop. 

Coffee shop

I walked in looked around, and decided that they was running late, 5 minutes past by, so I decided to order a croissant and a smoothie instead of coffee. I am done with my food it has been an hour that I have waited here. "hey", I looked up it was Sandy, she grabbed a chair faced it towards me and sat down with a bagel. Why would she do that, I thought I was just starting to get to know her, and she kept me here waiting, like a lost loser. "Hey" I put on a fake smile, and looked down at my phone "she is jealous of you, and Henry" she paused looked around the room took a piece of her bagel before adding "she told me not to come, but I felt to bad, plus we had much more things in common" I was mad, but didn't feel like making such a big deal out of it, "so you do everything she tells you to do" she laughed, got up paced around before sitting next to me, it felt as if she was wondering if what I had said was actually true or not "no not anymore, I'm done being her friend" I stared at her thinking if I should be mad, for letting me stay here all alone, and thinking I have friends in Kansas. "okay" was all I could say, "I came here by a taxi, would you mind giving me a ride" she said giving me a smile, I was right about to say no, but I wasn't that kind of person, and agreed to give Sandy a ride home.
