When Distress Meets Distress - S01 E83

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 83

Normally, going back to school is terrible, but it’s so

much worse now. For one, I still didn’t figure out

who my mystery kisser is and two, I have to deal

with Waverly’s pestering about my whereabouts

during lunch on Wednesday, December 23rd, the

day that her dress was sabotaged.

As I got out of my car, I yawned, imitating a baby

dinosaur. I laughed at that thought before heaving

my bag out of the passenger’s seat. I groaned,

muttering about the stupid thing as it got caught on

the head rest. “Saltines,” I snapped as I finally

managed to yank it out of the passenger’s seat.

The amount of strength I put into the tug was more

than enough, it caused me to fall backwards into the

empty parking spot beside mine and I glared at my

car. I was currently sitting in snow that was

drenching my pants as we speak, or should I say as

I speak? I got up and slammed the door, making

sure the vehicle was locked. As much as I hate the

car right now, I can’t deal with it getting stolen.

“Having fun there?”

I turned around to see Jonah, taunting me, as usual.

Isn’t it the other way around? “So much, why don’t

you join me?” I glared as I pulled my bag over my

shoulders and slowly walked to the entrance to the

school, partially because I was tired and partially

because I wanted to spend a bit more time with

Jonah before Waverly rips him away from me.

Jonah wrinkled his nose and furrowed his eyebrows.

“I would but it seems that I’m busy.”

“With what?” I curiously asked as I glanced at him.

He smirked. “Not helping you.”

I bumped into his shoulder with my own, too lazy to

lift my arm and bring it down on his upper arm,

hitting him and feeling his muscles. “You know

what? Day by day, you’re getting crueler.”

“You seem to be rubbing off on me,” he replied,

bumping his shoulder with my own.

I couldn’t reply because a loud screeching came

from the middle of the parking lot. We turned to see

Waverly barreling towards us, ignoring the snow

under her feet and jumping into Jonah’s arms. He

just stood there with her in his arms, staring at me

with a stunned look plastered on his face.

I smiled slightly before waving and walking off

towards the school entrance, picking up speed. I

noticed Sierra watching me with a knowing look but

I just turned and entered the school, ignoring the

feeling of hurt.

~~~

During the class before lunch time, I found myself

worrying. Where am I going to sit? Because I’m

definitely not welcome at Waverly’s table. As I

finished my work early, I waved my hand in the air,

beckoning the teacher.

“Yes, Savannah?” the teacher asked tiredly. I’m

guessing he assumed that I’m going to ask of some

tiring favor that includes him walking to Asia and

back, carrying an elephant on his back.

I put on an innocent smile. “Do you think you could

let me out of class early?”

He glanced at the clock before looking around the

classroom. There were five minutes left before the

bell would ring and he sighed. “For what?”

I frowned slightly. “I have to call my father to make

sure he landed safely. I can’t exactly call him in the

hallway in 5 minutes because it’d be loud and so

would the bathrooms.”

Even though I lied slightly, he gave me a sympathetic

look while he sighed. He nodded his head, taking my

paper to his desk as I slung my bag over my

shoulder and walked out of class. I even took out my

phone but put it back as soon as I exited the

classroom.
