The Broken Piano - PianoForTay (top ten books to read .TXT) 📗

I turn but my bus is gone and I remember that Josh's truck is fixed. Praying that he hasn't left, I walk outside and call him for a lift.
We talked all the way until we got to school, Josh and I. We walked slowly down the long pathway towards the cage with teenagers overtaking it. Even though we had the same class together, we wanted as much time close to each other as we could. Huh, so I guess you could call us a thing now. Yeah, I like that.
Then I look up to see a jock - school quarterback - walking up to us. Brian, is his name and he's the biggest jerk I believe to exist on this earth. If all the jerks in the world battled to be the the Alpha Jerk, Brian would certaintly win.
"Aye, new kid. Whatcha doin' talking to that freak? Shoudln't be home in the kitchen? She's no fun. Why don't you hang out with us some time. Just forget about her. I got some hot chicks over here that are dying to check you out if you know what I mean," he did this cocky smile and elbowed Josh in the stomach playfully. Ugh, how I ever so despise cocky people. I looked over at the cheerleaders and some other jocks to see them waving at Josh. Oh gosh I knew this time would come.
Shockingly, Josh pulled his fist back and then sent it forward with a burst of energy. "You called my girlfriend a piece of crap. That's no way to treat a girl. She's beautiful. If only you would get to know her."
My eyes felt like they were about to pop out of my head as I took in the busted lip and a bloody nose. The jock tried to get up off the ground but was a little dazed.
"You know what?" Brian yelled, "Screw you man! We don't want you! You're nothing to us now! Screw you!"
Josh just shrugged and drapped his arm firmly around my shoulders. With that, we walked away to our classes. Leaving Brian cursing and yelling behind us, finally able to get off the ground.
We were finally out of hearing range of Brian and his foul mouth - wash it out with soap much?- when I opened my mouth to thank Josh.
"Thank you."
He just nodded and we continued on to French class.
"What's wrong?" I asked him.
"I'm pissed."
I didn't ask anymore questions. Wanting his anger to melt away, I stopped walking and locked my arms around his neck. I pressed my lips against his and he put his hands on my hips. His sweet scent washed over me. I took in a deep breath, loving every minute of it. Our lips moved together perfectly, just like it was meant to be.
No one was in the hall. Or so I thought until some teacher yelled at us.
"Hey! No PDA in the halls!"
We let go of each other and I rolled my eyes. He laughed and I could tell he was in a much better mood than before. Still, I yearned for more of his lips. The way he kissed softly, but intensly. So passionatly it made my knees weak.
The teacher stood there for a moment more, watching us to make sure we didn't show anymore PDA and then left. We finally made it to French class.

Chapter 6
Well school was about as boring as staring at my big toe. It passed as slowly as ever. Finally! After eight full hours, I was able to really hang out with Josh.
