I Can't Help It
Chapter 19.
" Erica is making me do all this work. Can you believe it? I hate her." Sandy rambled on about her and her project work.
" Anyways, what have you and Andy done so far?" She asked. I shrugged.
" Nothing really. I mean we got together to start it but we didnt really get anything done."
Sandy gasped, and a mischievous smile played across her face.
" Why not?"
" Got distracted."
" By what?" She winked. I knew what she meant now. I rolled my eyes and took a pencil out of my binder.
" Not like that San."
" Darn. You two would be cute."
I looked up, thinking about me and Harry.
" I think I have an eye for someone else." I didn't meet her gaze. "Who?! And why haven't you told me who it is?" She asked.
" You don't know him." I blurted. She never answered. I finally looked at her and she just had a puzzled look on her face. I sighed.
" Look, he goes to Holt." I lied. Holt was the next town over.
" Since when have you started hanging out with guys from Holt?" She asked.
" S-Since I met him."
I felt so bad lieing to her. She nodded, thinking about everything. She sat back in her chair, looking foward, and crossing her arms. I did the same and watched as Mr. Styles walked in and started class.
After school I walked into Kelly's and saw Andy sitting in the spot I usually sit in.
" Hey." I approached him. He stood up.
" Hey. I was waiting for you." He said. I looked around.
" I see."
" I really think we should start this project."
I sighed.
" Fine."
I sat down and pulled my bag onto my lap. I took out my English folder and set it on the table.
About three hours later me and Andy had actually finished it. I was so relived. He high fived me.
" Finally! See it wasn't that hard. We finished it in no time."
" Yeah well, it's like a big weight lifted off my shoulders."
" Definently."
I leaned back in my chair. I could feel his eyes on me.
" What?" I giggled. He chuckled and crosse his arms. He met my gaze again.
" Tomorrow's Friday."
I shrugged.
" Kay?"
" Are you free?" He asked.
" I-I..."
" Do you want to see a movie or something?" He asked.
I studied his face.
" Why?"
" Id like to get to know you. I'm glad you picked my name out of the bowl." He said.
" Well I didn't mean to."
" Well maybe it was fate."
I froze at his choice of words. Maybe it was fate. Those were the exact words that Harry had said to me before too.
" It wasnt." I said. He looked hurt by my words. I stood up and collected my things, shoving them into my bag.
" I've gotta go. This was fun Andy. I'm glad we finished it."
I didn't let him respond as I left the café and hopped into my car. I needed to get out of there.
" Anyways, what have you and Andy done so far?" She asked. I shrugged.
