Chapter 4 - Butterflies and Pretty Guys

Monday finally approached and I was dead happy. How else was I going to see Spencer? It was dangerous just to stay after with him...if we were seen in public, we'd both have a hell of a time getting out of that one.

I tossed off my blankets and sat up, craddling my head in my hands. 'Ughn...' I couldn't seem to sleep ever since Saturday. A feeling tugged at me. 'It's a dream, it's a dream,' my mind threatened me constantly. Coping with it was hard. I was suddenly getting headaches all the time and refusing food-DEFINANTLY not something I would do normally. 'It's a dream...I'm definant, but I remember so vividly, I can feel his lips on mine still...' The door burst open at that moment, revealing my gorgeous, looks-too-young-to-be-my-mum mum. 'Oh, you're up already, that's good.' I was startled by the loudness of her voice, but calmed when she walked over-basket on her hip-to tousle my hair. 'Get ready for school, dear.' I nodded and headed for the shower, yawning horribly.

I came out, towel on my still bare shoulder, pants loose around my unbelted waist and a toothbrush in my mouth. My lazy eyes dared me to turn on a light, but when I turned it on, I repelled and turned it off once more, opting to open the blinds instead. I hadn't done any of my homework and if luck had it, teachers wouldn't notice and I could just slip the sheets into the inboxes later. I sighed and walked back to the bathroom, spitting and rinsing my brush. I examined my poreless face and sighed. Most people envied me-clear skin and all. But I kindof hated myself...I was so plain, so average. Then I smiled to myself-remembering.

When I got to school, I couldn't help the yawns overtaking me. I was so tired...being up all night with Spencer on my mind didn't help. The truth was only 7 periods away anyhow. With that, the bell rang. '6 periods...'

There was a tap on my shoulder and I turned to meet a familiar face. 'Diana!' Her dark hair was pressed in neat curls against the side of her face, framing the attractive shape. She was wearing a simple pair of dark wash jeans and a henly, but she looked clean and sharp. She looked like any other girl-which always made me wonder why she wasn't one to hang with them. 'Hey Dillon, mind if i walk with you today? I think we have a few classes together.' She smiled shyly, so I nodded reluctantly. I was used to just walking along side Holley Jaye or alone. Holley Jaye was the only person I could relate to for a long time. Then we lost almost all contact as she became more popular, though we still talked on the phone and walked together occasionally.

It was a short 2 halls to Ms. Mennale's class. When we got in, Diana sat next to me. 'I don't remember me inviting her to be my BEE-EF-EF.' I chuckled inwardly, remembering Holley Jaye's impression of all her popular friends. She didn't hate them, she just thought they could be pretty dumb at times. 'So...' I jerked up, looking over to where an expectant Diana sat. I sighed and looked at my hands. 'What's new with you?' 'Well...' she paused to look at me devilishly, 'I'm thinking about adding purple into my hair.' I laughed and then smiled, 'Cool, do it.' She smiled, seemingly satisfied, 'I really like your's by the way...it looks nice with your skin tone.' I sunk into my chair-people seemed to like commenting on the blue. 'Thanks...'

The seemed to pass slower, having Diana around, but I kindof liked it. I didn't get that creepy itchy neck feeling when people looked at me. Instead, I was preoccupied with the crazy girl who seemed to like following me.

Finally, the day approached Spencer's class.

I couldn't help but blush when I felt Spencer's eyes on me. The only thing that was able to break the creepy trance was Jarred Kimble's lingering snicker. He was the biggest @$$ in the entire junior year. His mum was a teacher, so he was able to pick on anyone without being caught or punished. I sighed and proceeded to my seat. After the hour ended, Diana urged me out without me being able to visit with Spencer. When we reached the door, I couldn't help but speak, 'I'm really starting to love Psalm's-'

'Dillon...' I turned to meet Spencer's gaze and waved Diana off, 'See you later...' I turned back to Spencer and offered a quizical glace. 'I was going to come back after I got my bag...sorry...' Spencer shook his head and pulled me in. 'You can't tell her,' Spencer warned. I scoffed, 'Tell her what?' Spence sighed and looked away, 'You were going to tell her about us, weren't you? You can't...it's bad enough that it's even happened...but...'
