Hiding

My name is Emily Collins and the guy I'm talking about is Aaron Cooper. He is the Rockstar of our school. The most popular guy. He has all the qualities that can make a girl swoon over him.

And me, I'm not only a fan girl but also his friend. Me being a nerd I don't know how I end up being part of the most popular group of the school. I have helped him with many of his songs and academics. So at least I'm an important member of the group.

While walking from library to my class-room I felt everyone's eyes on me. My ears started buzzing, oh God please make me invisible.

"Are you alright? You look a little pale."

Is she serious "Of course I'm not alright. Nothing is alright. What makes you think that I'll be alright after what you have done." I hissed, glaring at her.

"Maybe you should go to the sick room."

If I could just kill someone now.. But that actually is a good idea.

"Yep, I'm feeling a little nauseated."

I was sitting on the bed of sick room after taking the pill miss Alonso gave me. Wracking my brain for something that will take me out of this situation.

Me, who was always full of ideas was out of ideas right now. I had never felt this restless before. I think, I need some time to think things through. The school will be over after few hours from now, maybe I can avoid everyone till then. And maybe everyone will forget about it by tomorrow.

Thinking about it I need to distract everyone from this issue by creating an even bigger issue.

I was pretending to be sick while waiting for the school to be over, when I heard a "thad" sound, miss Alonso had gone somewhere so I walked out in the corridor.

A girl was carrying too many books and had dropped some, so I helped. When I got back from library I saw Aaron was talking to miss Alonso. I quickly hid myself and tried to eavesdrop on their conversation.

"She was just here, I don't know where she is now."

"Thank you miss Alonso."

After Aaron was gone, I slipped into the sick room while miss Alonso was not looking.

When she asked I lied saying I was in Washroom.

Things were pretty much peaceful afterwards till Peter one of my close friend came.

"Emi, I heard from Yui that you are here. What happened..? Are you alright..?"

He looks really concerned.

"Yeah, don't worry I'm feeling better than before."

"So what happened?"

He doesn't look convinced.

"I just had this headache and was feeling a little nauseated but I'll be fine. You go to your class." I said with a smile on my face.

"Hey.. Um.. Have you heard about the canteen incident."

"Wh..what.?"

"If you haven't. It's just Yui, she made such a mess but don't worry about it. Everyone knows how she is and she also made it pretty clear that it was a joke."

"Uh..Thanks for telling me, let's talk later okay.? I'm feeling a little sleepy."

"haha, alright. You take care okay.."

With that he was gone. I guess maybe things are not as bad as I thought.

After school I was at parking lot most of the students were gone. I had also told Yui to go because she would have just made a scene by saying sorry to me too many times.

I felt like ninja, hiding from everyone and completing my mission of getting out of school.

I took out my bicycle and was about to go when suddenly I heard someone calling me,

"Emi WAIT."
