Chapter 9

Monday morning before school started, me, Sarah, and Nickolas were standing outside the building waiting for Alex to show. "Where is he?" I asked. I was worried. He would have called me is he wasn't going to be at school. The bell rang. "C'mon chicky. School's about to start." Nickolas took my arm and pulled me inside. We went to first hour and Mr. Warner, yet again, made us move. I passed a not to Sarah. In the note I asked her, "Do you think Alex forgot to call me? Or do you think he just didn't want to?" She wrote back and passed it to me. I read it. "I think when he woke up it was too late to call you." I wrote back. "I really like him. Do you think that he likes me?" I passed the note to here care- fully so Mr. Warner didn't catch us. She read it and wrote something and gave it back. But, Mr. Warner saw it. He took the note and he read it aloud. I wanted to die. I hate it when teachers read my notes out loud. He read "I really like him. Do you think he likes me? I think he wants you! I mean, I watched you guys at the carnival last night. He couldn't let you go! You guys are meant for each other!" He looked at us. "You two need to stop passing notes and do your work. If I see you pass notes anymore in this class, I am going to give you two a detention." I sunk in my seat. I looked at the clock over the door. I saw this figure walk through the door. It was Alex. I smiled. He walked up to my desk. He had a long box in his hand. He handed it to me. I turned red and smiled. I opened the box and in it there were 12 red roses. I jumped up and gave him a hug. Mr. Warner, being an ass, said "You two, sit down. Alex that was very nice but sit down." Alex sat behind me and whispered in my ear that we were skipping the rest of school and going to do something together. I smiled again and looked up at the front of the class while Mr. Warner taught. After first hour I met Alex outside of class and he took my hand. He smiled at me and took me outside. "We're gonna have the best time of our lives." I smiled and got in his car. We drove off. I can't tell you where we went. But it was for a fact the best time of my life and I wish it could've lasted longer. To my surprise it did. 3 years later we got married and had 2 boys and one beautiful girl. The names are Aaron Nickolas, Alexander James, and Charisma Grace. Sarah and Scruffy got married too. They had one boy and one girl. Their names are Ben Mercutio and Aurora Rose.
