Sammy came to the lesson with flaming cheeks, which did not hide from the attention of her friends. But they didn't come to her with questions, for which Samantha was grateful to them. She herself desperately wanted to understand what was going on between her and Travis, but her head refused to give out reasonable thoughts. Perhaps she is just winding herself up, and everything is just a figment of her imagination. And her own feelings...Travis didn't show up until the big break, and Sammy more or less got her thoughts in order. She, River, and Tina went out to lunch, and although Samantha expected Blair's antics with some trepidation, none came. No one really came up to her.However, this "nobody" spread far more widely than she expected - Jasper, barely nodding to her, walked past. Judging by the expression on his face, the friend was very angry with her.Sammy was so confused that she almost dropped her tray. Seeing Jas with a stunned look, she, nevertheless, did not follow him -

Samantha's head was spinning. She was desperately trying to figure out how to forget about all this, if only for a little while, when Providence gave her such a chance.Mom called, asking her to come to the bookstore and help her - my father had to urgently leave on business, and in the morning a large batch of new editions arrived. Sammy promised to be in half an hour and rushed to the bus stop.The store greeted her with her favorite smell of new books. Sammy thought with regret that she hadn't been here for a long time, and she really liked to read. But after that ill-fated quest, thoughts and feelings did not allow me to be distracted by reading, and even during my illness, an attempt to pick up a book failed. Trying her best not to fall back into the abyss of thinking about Travis, Samantha went to her mother.Teresa smiled happily at her, but looked tired.- Baby, it's just a blockage! she complained. - As always, all the difficulties in one day. In the back room there is a real

They returned home only late in the evening. Mom was pretty tired, and Sammy was knocked down after a stormy day. Their father greeted them with two large boxes of fragrant pizza."Sorry, I wore you out today," he smiled embarrassedly. “But at least I saved you the trouble of cooking dinner. Get undressed quickly and sit down to eat - the pizza is still warm, I just got home."Ben, you're a miracle," Teresa groaned as she took off her shoes. Cheese pizza is exactly what I need right now. How was the meeting?- Order - the publisher agreed to small periodic orders, although they usually prefer large batches.“Dad, you blew them away with your charm,” Sammy laughed as she opened a cardboard box that smelled amazing of cheese.Ben chuckled.- No, honey, we're just the only bookstore in the whole area. And they have a new manager with a non-standard approach to sales.The Wylie family started to eat while jokingly, and Sammy was eager to go to his room and read some more. Teresa generousl

Samantha set her phone down on the table, still pouting, and then her eyes fell on the screen, where the last photo Travis had viewed was open.Selfie, her and Leah, they took it just a couple of days before the quest. Sammy remembered how they both fooled around and laughed while taking pictures. The grief and pain of losing her friend squeezed her heart again, and the girl's lips trembled.If she hadn't been so tired, agitated and upset, she would never have betrayed her feelings. But all these factors, coupled with the presence of Travis, who acted on her in a strangely frank way, completely destroyed her self-defense. A tear ran down Sammy's cheek, and she hastily wiped it away with her pajama sleeve.- Well, here we are, - she heard Doyle's voice, which, oddly enough, sounded soft. And the next moment he rose from his chair, and she was in his arms.Surprised, Sammy didn't even think to resist. She buried her face in his bare shoulder—Travis was stripped to the waist—and closed h

An alarm clock chirped in my ear. Feeling the phone, Sammy turned off the ringtone and put it back on the nightstand, rubbing her eyes with her fingers. How would you like to sleep...The next moment, her eyes fluttered open of their own accord, and her heart began to pound. Jumping up on the bed, Sammy turned - there was no one beside her. Only a crumpled pillow and a slight scent of his perfume. Looking around, she saw the familiar furnishings of her room, but Doyle had indeed left.- My God ... - only the girl could whisper to herself under her breath.She spent the night with Travis in the same bed. Moreover, in his arms! The overwhelming excitement made her hands tremble as Sammy pushed back the covers and stumbled into the bathroom. Seeing herself in the reflection of the mirror, she groaned, a crow's nest on her head, puffy eyes from sleep. He looked at her while she was sleeping, in this form ...Who said they were close? Oh yes, now without a doubt! Samantha had never even sl

In addition to biology, she and Doyle had another lesson in common - literature, where he, of course, sat down with her again. Sammy no longer reacted so strongly to the presence of Travis near, and their conversation calmed her down a little. She smiled involuntarily when the topic of the lesson was Jane Eyre, the same one she had read the day before. Without even suspecting what impressions await her after ...Travis watched her for a while, then chuckled softly."I thought you loved this book," he said softly, leaning towards Sammy.- Why? She raised her eyes. – Like, is it not very fashionable to be interested in classical literature?Doyle shrugged."It's not fashionable to be stupid," he said. - And in the classics you can learn a lot of useful things. Unless, of course, you know where to look."I didn't know you were a reader," Sammy giggled. “Okay, then how did you figure out Jane Eyre?”- Frog, it's so simple. Travis's blue eyes sparkled. - You look like a heroine.- Say too

When class finally ended, Sammy said goodbye to her friends who kept teasing her about Travis and headed to the parking lot to find him.Travis was standing by his car, but not alone - he had that guy with him again, just like in the cafeteria. After a moment's hesitation, Samantha, nevertheless, went to him. If Doyle changed his mind, so much the better. At least, that's what she told herself, trying to subdue the excitement that had come from nowhere.Seeing her, Travis turned around.“Hi, Frog,” he said, smiling a little. - Where are you? Steve has been entertaining me with stories for fifteen minutes now, but I suspect they are running out.- This is unlikely, - his interlocutor laughed and held out his hand to Samantha: - Steve Allen.He had a pleasant low voice, and Sammy liked his look - nothing to do with Shannon's perpetual mocking mockery."Samantha Wylie," the girl nodded and shook a firm hand. Turning to Doyle, she made a sarcastic grimace, “Sorry, Travis, I don’t have sup

"Abi isn't the worst person," Travis said again. “Sometimes we are too dependent on the opinions of other people. And sometimes, on the contrary, we succumb to all the garbage that's going on inside. He lowered his head. “You know, I wanted to tell you something. You said yesterday that I am free to do it when I see fit.- About what Zach said? Sammy asked, and Doyle nodded.- Yes. In fact, I did a lot of nasty things, but for one thing I'm really ashamed. Do you remember Gary Wright?Samantha strained her memory, but shook her head, and Travis grunted.- No wonder - Harry was "invisible". Of those who no one notices. But one day, to his misfortune, I caught my eye ... It all happened a couple of years ago. Then I started having big problems with my father, and I was constantly beside myself with rabies. He exploded on every occasion, hated the whole world ... Once in a history lesson, I answered, and Gary dared to correct me - he, as it turned out, knew the topic well, was fond of it

But as soon as she entered the house, the good mood began to evaporate - her parents went out to the door, and, judging by their appearance, they were very unhappy.- Samantha, where have you been? the father asked sternly. - It's already dark outside! And your phone is off.Sammy bit her lip, forgetting that her cell phone went dead at the end of the school day.“I was walking,” she said. - With a friend.- So I understand, with the same Travis? Ben spoke up again. His eyes, usually kind, darkened. “And, let me guess, this is Carter Doyle’s son?”"Yes," Sammy confirmed quietly, realizing that it was useless to lie.“Listen,” interrupted the mother, who was clearly upset. “It's not about whose son he is… We were just worried, Sammy! I asked you to come home early, and you show up almost at night, and you don’t even pick up the phone! What should I have thought?- I'm sorry, mom. I forgot about the phone ... Well, I can’t always be an exemplary girl! I wanted to take a walk, and I went

She missed him. The last few days had been too turbulent and too much of Doyle, but Sammy hadn't stopped thinking about her best friend. He may not have been as handsome as Travis, but his kindness, correct and fair concepts of life, inner peace and peacefulness - this is what gave rise to awe in Samantha's soul. With someone like Jas, I wanted to be together, not expecting a dirty trick or an unpleasant surprise. Travis clearly could not boast of the latter.However, the usual thoughts of Jasper, this time, stung Sammy - yes, Travis was not like that, but he tried. I tried to understand what I was doing wrong, and just lived as best I could. If not for his help, Patricia would have been much worse at that ill-fated party, and the bastards would have gone unpunished. Doyle at least slapped them in the face.“That's it, time to go home,” Tina said with a yawn, and Sammy shuddered involuntarily. – What are you thinking?- I'm a little tired too. Sammy stretched, stretching her stiff bac
