But I Love Him...Don't I?, chapter 7
**DEDICATED TO ELLIE**
"Isn't it beautiful?" he asked me.
"Very" We just lay like that on the cliff for about an hour, just taking in our surroundings.
"Hey, come on, it's getting late, my parent's will be wondering where I am" I said getting up.
"Sure, can't wait for school tomorrow, which is so unusual for me!" Joey said.
"Ha ha! Yeah, detention should be more fun than usual!"
"Detention? How do you know we'll get detention?"
"Hey... .I get detention EVERY day in school"
"Oooh, I have a bad girl as a girlfriend do I?" He laughed, holding my hand as we walked down the road.
"You bet!" I smiled.
NEXT DAY
JOEY'S P.O.V
BEEP... ... BEEP...
"What day is it?"
"Monday, Joey, now get your arse out of bed for school!" Mom shouted as she passed my bedroom.
Uuh... School...Hang on, I'm starting a new school, with Charlie!! YEESS! I got up, brushed my teeth, my hair, all the usual morning stuff, then I went downstairs for breakfast.
"Morning Mom, morning Dad" I said smiling, I just feel so happy! Everything in my life is perfect! Well, except for one thing... ..
"What are you so happy about?" Jakob said to me.
"None of your business" I said, poking my tongue out at him.
"MOM! Joey poked his tongue out at me!" Jakob whined.
"Oi! Shut it, both of you!" Dad said. I just laughed.
"Okay, what ARE you so happy about?" Mom asked me.
"Nothing... it's just, I'm really happy this morning because it feels like a good day, and we're having an argument because I'm happy!" Jakob raised his eyebrows.
"Weirdo" He said.
"Mom, what's the time?" I asked.
"Quarter past eight" I got up.
"I'd better get going, I'm meeting Charlie at the bus stop" This time it was my mum's turn to raise her eyebrows.
"Charlie... ?" Ooops, I forgot to tell her, I laughed.
"Dad will tell you, bye" I said kissing her on the check, before grabbing my bag and walking out of the house. Today is gonna be awesome, I just know it!"
END P.O.V
Where is he? He said he'd be here. Charlie, he'll be here, he's not like Dan who'll turn up with some excuse Actually, I hope Dan doesn't show up now! I'll probably see him on the bus and in detention, but it'll be fine because I'll be with friends... .right?
"Charlie! Sorry I'm late, my family was being... well... normal, oh you know what I mean!" He kissed me.
"Erm, no I don't, but anyway, you ready for school?" The school bus came, and me and Joey climbed on.
"Hey Ellie!" Ellie's another best friend, we don't always get along, but I'll stand up for her against anyone, and I'm always there for her, and she's always there for me.
"Heya... ..is that who I think he is?" She said looking at Joey.
"Yeah, and to cut a long story short, me and Dan have split up, and I go out with Joey now." Her mouth dropped open. Wow, Ellie's speechless, that's a first! The bus stopped again, it was Dan's stop.
"This is his stop" I whispered to Joey. I must have looked really scared because Joey grabbed my hand and held it tight. Dan then walked onto the bus... ..with his arm around Shauni!!
