Chapter 19: Chapter 19

They sent me deadly glares as they made way for my desk.

"Hello Sara," Francesca said.

"It's Laura" Nelly corrected.

"Was I talking to you," She huffed while Nelly and Harper rolled their eyes.

I turned to Nelly and Harper, "It's okay guys, I got this," I assured and they nodded.

"Why don't you all just leave me alone," I said.

"That's the thing, we cant until we get revenge," Tammy said and I sighed.

"We'll be watching you," Racheal hissed as they all scrambled to there seats.

Funny thing is that, Racheal and her minions said in front of me while Tammy and Patricia sat beside Harper.

Well the BBB girls sat on their own seat, that's a relief.

"Oh Laura, you are one stupid girl," Racheal said shaking her head.

"That's...."

"Why can't you leave the beautiful girl alone," Iheard Gabriel say behind me and I blushed not because of he standing up for me but because he called me beautiful.

"What the hell, so you are now supporting her?" Rachel asked pissed.

"She's the greatest, most beautiful, talented, kind hearted friend I have ever had," Nelly said and I smiled.

She really thinks that of me.

"Yeah, but you know that is an offence to me," Harper pouted.

"You're the most creative person I know" Nelly said.

"Oh, thanks Nelly," Harper smiled.

"Eww, all you kind words is makes me want to puke" Rachael said disgusted.

Okay??

That normal since she has never said any good thing in her life.

The class went on intense, since my enemies were making it hard for me and putting me in trouble but Nelly, harper, Gabriel, Max and Ricky were there to save me.

We drew our names on our desk, so that someone else wouldn't sit on it.

I carried my bag pack which had my lunch in it to the cafeteria, followed by my friends Nelly, harper, Emma and Gabriel with Max and Ricky.

"Both science and art has gym classes after lunch," Nelly said as I bit on my lunch.

"Yeah, it's gonna be boring" Emma whined.

"No ways, our coach is looking for recruits for the team," Max said probably annoyed because of what Emma said.

"Wait, are you in also in the basketball team?" Harper asked and he nodded.

"Yeah," Ricky nodded.

"We're best friends.." Max smiled.

"Super best friends.." Ricky said and I rolled my eyes.

"And the greatest basket ball players of all time," Gabriel winked and I laughed hiding my blush.

"Oh, see who's bl.." Nelly was saying but I cut her off with a nudge and that earned me a quizzy look from Gabriel.

"Being a basketballer most be tough," I said trying to cover up.

"Yeah, especially being the captain of the team," I almost choked on my food.

"Yeah, I am the captain, sorry I didn't mention that," He said and I nodded and faced my food but was distracted by Harper's terrible breathing.

"What is it?" Nelly and I chorused.

"I just hope that the coach won't be hard on me, you know that am not good in sports," She pouted.

"Sure you aren't," Ricky laughed and Gabriel glared at him.

"What?" He asked while me and Gabriel just shook our heads.

"Nothing," me and Gabriel choruses and laughed.

"Hmm," Nelly hummed.

"What is it?" I asked curiously.

"Well, I am just happy the two lovebirds are getting doing there lovey dubey stuff but please do it somewhere else," Nelly said and my cheeks heated up because she used the word 'lovebirds'.

"Sorry we aren't doing any lovey dubey stuff," Gabriel justified and I nodded.

"We are just friends," I assured, and I swear that I saw a sad expression on Gabriel's face but it vanished quickly.

Crazy right?

"Yeah just friends," He said with a slight smile.

I could tell that it wasn't real.

"Look, stop talking about them, talk about me, my sport issue," Emma said.

"Okay, why don't you just skip sport class," Nelly suggested.

"Won't she find out that am missing?" Emma asked.

"I am sure she wouldn't," Max shrugged while Gabriel has been looking at me for ages now and it's getting creepy, but somehow comfortable that he's attracted to me.

Wait that's not like that...I just meant that he notices me.

Yeah, that's the word.., am not saying that he doesn't notice me, I just mean that....Emm, never mind.

"Wait, the coach is a woman, I thought that was a man's job," I said.

"Hey don't say that, women can do better than men," Harper smiled.

"Laura, we have two coaches, a man and woman, the man is.., well, we think he's out on vacation or something like that, I'll be back soon but before that, the woman is in charge," Max said.

"Yeah, and besides Harper you three aren't even women, I mean look at your flat chests," Ricky said and we gasped dramatically.

"How dare you say that," Emma huffed.

"It's okay Emma, he's right, we aren't women, we are ladies, women are gross and digusting," I retorted.

"Okay, but do all ladies have flat chests," Gabriel said and I glared at him.

He joined the party and that was what he picked from our conversation.

"Even you!" Harper glared.

"Why do men always embrass the ladies, and FYI, we are not flat chested," Nelly retorted as we all folded our arms covering our chests and the boys laughed at our reaction.

"Nitwits," I muttered.

"I heard that," Gabriel smiled and I rolled my eyes.

"Men aren't meant to talk to ladies like that," Nelly hissed.

"Girl, we aren't men, we're guys" Gabriel said dramatically and they all laughed hysterically.

"And we aren't girls, we're ladies, get that into your skull," I glared and we all stood up, ready to leave.

"Where are you ladies going?" Max asked.

"Somewhere far away from you three" Harper yelled and I nodded.

"Before, you go, can I at least talk to Laura outside please," Gabriel pleaded.

"After what you just did! No!!" I exclaimed.

"C'mon, it was just a simple joke," He smiled.

"Yeah just a joke," Ricky shrugged.

"Well, next time just don't joke with us like that," Emma warned.

"I understand, my lady," Max winked and I looked at Gabriel expected an apology.

"I am sorry, love"he smiled and I bit my lip.

Did he just call me love.

"Uh-huh, he called you love alright," Nelly whispered and I blushed.

"Now can we please go outside, I need to talk to you in private," he said and I nodded.

He intertwined our fingers and led me out of the cafeteria.

Nelly, Emma and Harper were giving me a look and I didn't like it.

Every girl in the cafeteria was staring at us as we walked out and he led me to the hall way.

He stopped but our fingers were still intertwined.

"Gabriel," I signaled and he let go of me, I felt somewhat sad about that.

"You might be wondering why I asked you to come, well, I wanted to tell you something," He said nervously.

"You know, it took me just some few hours without seeing you to finally...,Emm..., how do I put this," He said nervously as he rubbed the back of his neck.

He took a deep breath, looked me in the eye with his fingers travelling on my face, softly stroking me.

"Laura, I think that I...." he was about to say but someone interrupted.

"Am I interrupting something?" Cody's voice boomed in the hall way.

"Cody," I ran to hug him not minding Gabriel's gaze.

C'mon guys, Cody's just a friend, nothing more.

"I missed you, I haven't seen you for ages," He smiled.

"Me too," I said as his eyes diverted to Gabriel, who was with a mean look.

"Is there anything that I missed?" I asked.

"I should be asking you that, what are you doing here," He asked.

"It's a school, my school," I said just as the bell rang.

"Let's go, we have gym class now," He said as he held me but Gabriel was faster.

"I am sorry but me and Laura are going together," Gabriel said pissed and they both dragged me.

"Guys it hurts," I yelled but they continued.

"Cody, Gabriel," I screamed and they stopped both looking at me worried.

"I am sorry, are you okay?" they both asked and I nodded tyen turned to Cody.

"I am sorry but Gabriel and I are going together and it doesn't matter anyway since we are going to meet at the same place, why don't we go together," I suggested.

"That sounds good to me," Cody smiled.

"Fine, just because of you," Gabriel muttered and I smiled as I intertwined our fingers and he smiled.

God! I am gonna blush any second!

Cody rolled my eyes and placed his hands across my shoulders and we walked to the gym, with Gabriel who was uncomfortable with Cody here.

Can't they just get along.

Well, I was quite uncomfortable too because, well, I was on the verge of being cut into half by those two.

Like I said, Today's gonna be a long day!!
