Through the window

Twenty six

"Yes but I'm not gay!" He leans back and dusts his clothes off, "and if you must know my girlfriend is pissed. Everyone's been going up to her and saying they're sorry that she didn't figure it out sooner!" Milo laughs so hard he cries.

A while later and they're all chatting away, I ignore them to think about what I've been worrying about all last night. Then I think about my father and my friends.

I think to myself, about everything. About Milo knowing about my dad, I want other people to know... maybe. Maybe my friends, because I'm close with them now. And I trust them, and I want them to know why I put up this front. Why when we first met I was pricks to them. I sigh, not knowing if I should or not. Because then that changes everything.

Then even more people know that my father is abusive, the mayor of this shitty little town hurts his son.

"No, shut up" I hiss to Milo and he glares at me, we're in class and having our first argument as a couple... yeah maybe I only said that to bring up the fact that I have a boyfriend again but so what. I have a boyfriend!

Truth is the argument can't really be classed as an argument because we're debating on which marvel movie is the best one. He says thor and I strongly disagree.

He turns back to his work and I hear him mumble under his breath, "what was that?" I question, the class is quite loud because we have a substitute today.

He turns to me and grunts our, "you shut up" I raise a brow for him to finish because I know he didn't just leave it at that, "bitch" he ends it and I nod.

But then I huff out, "sorry, I'm right you're wrong" I shrug.

Some girl decides to butt in, "actually I think Milo is right, thor is the best marvel movie" she smiles to him who smiles back and I raise a brow.

"Hm, that's hilarious. You think you can speak to me" I tilt my head and her cheeks tint a pink colour. I can see Milo shake his head and fiddle around with his pen.

"Sorry, I was just saying-"

"Oh no, I'm sorry. I forgot to ask" I shrug and she sinks down in her chair.

"Okay, you're really mean" she says and I smile and take the complement, I see Milo break his pen and I roll my eyes at him as blue starts leaking out. I look back to the girl and shrug.

"Yeah well, sounds like a you problem" I say and Milo raises his hands quickly, the girl finally takes the hint and pisses off as I look to Milo. He has blue ink all over his top, I roll my eyes.

"You idiot" he glances at me with a glare.

"Yeah well, you were making me uncomfortable so this is your fualt!" He hisses out and I roll my eyes.

When the teacher notices Milo's hand up he questions, "may i use the toilet" she nods and he scurries of, I raise a brow and follow him without bothering to ask because- well because the teacher is a substitute so she doesn't give a shit.

I catch up to Milo, "hey, where are you going?" He turns around with a brow raised looking at me like I'm dumb.

"Um, to the bathroom to clean myself off? Did you not just hear me!?" I roll my eyes at him and cross my arms.

"No, you're boring" he rolls his eyes and goes to walk off again but I stop him, "wait!" I yell and he turns around awaiting. I glance around not knowing what to say until I settle on, "are we arguing?" His face scrunches up for a while until he figures soemthing out, and soon it is softening and he is walking towards me.

"That wasn't a fight babe" my eyes widen momentarily at the pet name and relaise i like it, "I'm not mad don't be dumb" he swipes a strand of my hair out my eyes and tucks it behind my ear. I glare at him for a second before nodding, a small smile appearing and I breathe out a sigh of relief.

"Okay, good" he smiles and goes to step forward, like he is about to kiss me but jumps back as a teacher walks by- my teacher.

He notices us, "why are you both not in class?" He questions and I glance at Milo quickly.

"Sorry sir" he glances down at himself and the teacher notices because his eyes widen, "my pen broke on me and ink spilt all over" he nods in understanding and glances over to me.

I shrug, "my pen broke too" i smirk and he looks at my shirt and hands before looking back up to me with a raise of a brow. He shakes his head.

"You know what, I don't have time for you today Harvey" he waves me off and leaves. I see Milo raise a brow at me in question.

"He's my beloved fashion design teacher" I grin and Milo snorts while rolling his eyes playfully.

I grab his hand before he leaves to go to the bathroom, "hey, do you want to maybe skip?" I question and he gives me a look.

"Ohh, rebelling are we?" I shrug with a smile.

"Hm, maybe. Anyway we can ask the others too, maybe go to the hill or for a movie. What do you say?" I smile up at him and he comes closer, tilting my jaw up he gives me a peck.

"I say, I love that idea" I grin and he goes off to the bathroom to clean up as I message the others to meet at Harvey's car.

Once everyone is at the car we tell them our master plan of ditching, Emmey seems nervous, Darcie doesn't care and Oakley is excited. When we're in the car we blast our songs and decide to see a movie.

We order popcorn and drinks and sit in the back row, halfway through the movie i look over to see Milo crying because a dog had just died and that is his weak spot, i hope he thought of Lily dying... drowning. Oakley gasps as it happenes and hits Darcie on her arm in suprise and I sip my drink, not affected.

This is quite fun, maybe we should ditch more often.
