Emily

When I entered Everett's car, it was warm and it smelled the same citrus smell, that all his cars have.

He have a wide smile on his face and I returned one. He was wearing a dark blue sweater and I think underneath he have a button-up shirt. He paired it with a black jeans and white shoe and his hair was pushed to the side. He definitely was not dressed for the weather, but as long as he's inside the car. He should be fine.

"Good morning, beautiful." He said as he kissed my cheeks.

"Good morning, Everett." I said. I don't know if I'll ever get use to him calling me that. My heart races whenever I see him.

"How was your night?" He asked while pulling out from the driveway.

"Good." I said. I was being honest about it. I've not been having any bad dreams, lately. "How was yours?"

"It was good." He smiled and then his face turned a little upset. "But, I'm upset. I won't be seeing you until tomorrow." He sounded whiny for a moment. "I won't be able to come over during lunch break. Mr. Harper will be guarding me the whole day. He wants me to study, so I don't get behind much once I return next week."

"You really don't have to come over during lunch." I said to him. "I want you to focus on your own studies and be calm. You can't keep getting suspended, not in your senior year."

"Did you and Mr. Harper decided to team up against me?" He joked and I rolled my eyes at him.

Last night, it snowed and now the place was surrounded by white. I see some people shovelling their drive-way as he passed their homes.

When we pulled over at the school's parking lot. He started taking off his seat-belt.

"What are you doing?" I asked.

"I'm going to walk you inside the building." He said, like it was the most obvious thing.

I shake my head. "It's cold, you're not dress for the weather." I leaned and pecked his lip.

"I'm absolutely fine with this clothing."

I rolled my eyes and shake my head. "No, I'll walk by myself, today. Don't get into much trouble." I smiled and this time he rolled his eyes.

"I don't get into trouble all the time."

"I'm just saying." I said and he laughed.

"Can I get a hug before you go?" he asked, slightly pouting.

I smiled as I reached out to give him a hug. He nuzzled my hair and sighed. "I'll miss you so much."

"It's just today." I said to him. "We'll be seeing each other tomorrow." I reminded.

"Are you sure, you don't want me to pick you guys up from home?" he asked.

"We'll be fine and plus we need some girl's time alone." I shrugged,

"Let me know if you guys change your mind." he said and I nodded my head.

Bloom have been acting a little different for few days. She was snappy and gets annoy once in a while. Aaliyah and I looked at each other as we tried to figure out what made Bloom agitated all of a sudden.

At beginning, I thought she was stressed about assignments or some coming exams, but when Aaliyah told me that Bloom never reacted this way when she's stress about school work. It made me slightly more worried, than before. Aaliyah said, Bloom never stressed about school work like this, in front of her before. While we were discussing about this matter in the hallway. Evan ran towards us in a hurry and instead of his usual greeting.

He said. "Do any of you know where Bloom is, right now?"

"She's in her locker." I said and blinked a couple of times.

"Thanks." he said and ran towards where Bloom's locker was.

I spoke to Bloom in the middle of the day.

"You do know, we're here for you if you want to share something or talk about anything."

She sighed and looked at me.

"I'm fine." she said playing with her sweater.

"I know. I just want to let you know, we're here if you want to talk about anything."

She nodded her head and kept quiet.

"Was Evan able to find you this morning? He was looking for you." I said after sometime and she looked at me with a grim expression.

"Yes, he did." and she sighed. "I let him borrowed my notes, but it was not for him." she said as she folded her arms looking angry.

It took me couple of minutes to comprehend her words.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"He came to me the other day to ask for a note in one of the class we shared. He said he wanted it, but the other day someone else returned my notes, all soaked and they apologized saying they accidentally spilled drink on it."

Oh.

"Evan bought me a laptop instead of an apology. He said maybe I should back up my notes in the Laptop! Is apology that hard to get, these days? He could have just said sorry. He could have told me someone else wanted my notes."

"Are you sure you're just upset about this matter and nothing else?" I asked after sometime.

"Yes. Why else would I be upset for?" she asked looking somewhat confused, herself.

"Just making sure." I said.

But I have a feeling, she's upset about something else, but I can't be quite sure about that as I looked at her.
