Three Wishes
Chapter One (Part Two)
He was so stupid.
I wasn't the only one who knew this would go downhill. Diana would say something pathetic like he forced himself on her. Who would believe Jay over Diana?
He would come running back to me, hoping that I would comfort him. Fair enough, he liked her. He didn't have to kiss her though!
I stormed out of the block. I bumped into Jessica, one of my friends.
"Hey Summer," she grinned. Her smile turned to a frown when she saw my expression. "What's up?"
I debated whether to tell her. It would get out anyway but it was between them, really.
"It...doesn't matter," I sighed. "Look, I need to get to tutor. See you in Maths."
I brushed past her, not looking back. I walked across the courtyard, dodging other pupils, and entered Apple block. There were already some people waiting outside my tutor room, ready to go in. It was always the same people - Adam Brookes, Charlie Cassidy and Ashley Thomas.
"Hey Summer," Charlie said, picking his backpack up and slinging it on his shoulder.
"Hi," I said, barely paying any attention to him. The bell rang, making me jump. More people came and joined the line, waiting to go into the room for registration.
"Summer!" a familiar voice squealed. I turned to see Allie throw herself at me.
"Hey," I smiled, hugging her. Her wild brown hair tickled my face, her chocolate-coloured skin radiant. She was hyper - as usual.
"Where's Jay?" she asked, confused. She was used to seeing us joined to the hip: we were hardly ever apart. I shrugged in reply to her question and she raised her eyebrows but didn't say anything.
Finally, our tutor rushed over to us and unlocked the door to let everyone in. Mrs Ramirez took her seat at the front of the room, at her desk.
"Everyone sit down, please," she said, as we filed into the room that was used for English lessons. I sat down near the back of the room, next to Allie.
Mrs Ramirez started registration as soon as the room was almost silent. She reeled off names, and most of them gave a reply when called.
When she finished, she said, "Okay, now you can all talk for the next ten minutes."
I slipped my phone out of my bag and hid it under the table. I stuck my headphones into the sleek black phone and shoved one in my ear, hiding the wire with my hair and the hat I still had on my head. Mrs Ramirez didn't bother telling me to take it off.
As I was scrolling through my songs, an image popped up onto the screen and a blonde girl started talking.
"Hello, Summer. I'm Genia and I've been told to give you three wishes. Meet me behind Blueberry block at break and I'll speak to you properly then. Don't tell anyone. Not Jay or Allie. No-one. Okay?" she said, calmly.
"Okay," I whispered. Allie looked at me when I spoke.
"Huh?" she asked.
"I was talk- I mean, I was listening to a song," I smiled, hastily. She gave me a strange look but turned around without another word to carry on with her conversation with Julia.
"Good girl," Genia said, and the screen flashed off, my list of songs appearing again.
I was confused.
Really confused.
I just had to wait until break.
