Chapter - 4

It had been an hour since our classes had finished yet I was still standing outside of this hell of a building known as school waiting for Olly . Wait no - hell sounds actually better than school . It sounds way better than school .

No matter where I was right now , I was still waiting for my dumbass bestie . Where in the world is he anyway ?

" Where are you ?" I texted Olly again for like the 100th time .

" Are you ok ?" I texted again and there was still NO reply .

" Hey Ellie ? Is everything alright ? " asked a voice from behind me . ." Woah - Ahh . " I shouted as I turned around to see Sam with his arms raised above his head .

" Woah hey - I surrender - I surrender . " he said, covering his face .

" Hey . Sorry - you just startled me . Ya everything is fine . It's just .. I was just waiting for Olly . Have you seen him ? " I asked him, trying to calm my breathing .

" Sorry about that . " he apologized . " Anyway - I think Olly's home already . He said that he was not so well . " said Sam .

" Oh - Ok . He didn't tell me that . " I said .

" You could have just texted him you know . " said Sam with an amused tone . " Yep - that's what I've been doing. " I showed him my phone . " Oh . I think he went at like noon . " he said . " Dumbass - he could have at least told me but noooo - why would he ? " I said with a pissed tone .

" Woah - chill . " chuckled Sam . " I know I know . That is why I took drama classes . " I smiled, making him laugh again . " I'm sure he has a good reason to keep you standing for so long . " I nodded .

" Anyway , who are you going home with ? " he asked . " Well since Olly is already home , I'll be going alone then . "

" Not alone now . " he smiled as he started walking ahead . I followed beside him .

" You live around here ? " I asked keeping my phone back inside my pocket . " It's been 4 years and you still don't know where I live ? " he asked with an amused face .

" What ? No no . I know . " I fake laughed . Of course I knew where he lived . I didn't even know why I asked him that .

'This girl - confuses me .' muttered Sam so slowly I don't even know if he said that .

" How was your day anyway ? " he asked . " It was good . Yeah . "

" What about yours ? "

" Well I fell down thrice today . My food was violently stolen by Mr. Maxwell . I don't know why but Brune punched me today and I got hit by a ball at practice today . So , I left early . "

" It was bad then . " I said . " Not entirely but yeah bad . To put it in a simple way it sucked but not entirely . " he laughed

" So many things suck though, right ? " I told him . " What do you mean ? "

" I mean like when you have the perfect internet connection but then the video quality totally sucks . " I said .

" So true . Also when you decide to study at 6 p.m. but then it's already 6:01 p.m. " he said .

I gasped . " Oh my god . That is so true . " He laughed , " I know right . "

" It's like when you keep an eye on the milk the entire time when it's on the gas but it spills even then, " he said . " That is just brutally sad . "

" True . "

After some talking and laughing - we were in front of Sam's house .

" Well this is me . I guess I'll see you tomorrow ? "

" Yep . See ya . " I waved . " Bye . " he waved back .

After 10 minutes or so I was at my house .

" I'm home, people . " I yelled as I entered .

" No people care " yelled back Dan from the living room . My brother's best friend Nick was here too . " Hey Nick . People number 1 who surely cares if I'm here right ? " I asked Nick with a tone as I entered the living room .

" Sure sis . " said Nick ruffling my hair .

" You are surely in a mood ." commented Dan as I glared at Nick . He quickly pulled his hands away from my head and surrendered .

" Well yeah . I was waiting for Olly but later I found out is already home . I texted him a bunch of times . He has not replied and also he could have told me that he was gone at like noon so that I did not had to wait for him but no he couldn't even text me and then Sam told me that he was gone - "

" Woah " cut me off both Dan and Nick . " Remind us to always text you back " said Nick and headed towards the kitchen .

" I'll just be in my room . Maybe I'll go and check up on him tomorrow . "

" Mm "

" By the way , is dad home ? " I asked . " Yeah . Dad ? " Dan yelled . There was no reply .

" Dad ? " I yelled too . " Dumb - its 5 . Dad is never home by 8 . " said Dan .

" Then why'd you tell me that dad is home ? "

" Did sarcasm extinct ? " he said, doing some massive dramatic gestures with his hands .

I just threw a pillow at him . He deserved that .

" I'll be upstairs . " I said

" Still no one cares , Ell . " commented Dan just as Nick just entered the room laughing .

" Why are you laughing dude ? " asked Dan . " Yeah - blushing to be exact . " I said .

" It's nothing, " said Nick . " Oh come on . It is something . I wanna know . " I said

" Still Ell . Still no one cares . " said Dan .

I just stomped my feet and went to my dear room . They both started laughing downstairs .

" You guys are mean . " I shouted

" No one cares, " said Dan .

" Dan . " I warned him . " Still nobody . "

" Ughhh " I shouted and shut my door .

" Please tell me you're alright . I was worried . I'll see you tomorrow . Good night Olly . " I texted for the last time today before taking a nap - wasn't a nap - I slept throughout the night .
