All Chapters of Secretly Loving Mr Jones. : Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

CARTERYou know those battles you said you'd fight another day? Well, today was my turn and the battle line had been drawn. My headphones were over my ears, blocking out the distracting noise of the school cafeteria while I concentrated on my food. Sabrina, my best friend nudged me but I didn't respond because I thought she just wanted to gossip again and I wasn't in the mood for it. I had to get home after this and take care of my mum. Suddenly, my headphones were yanked away from my head. “Sabrina, quit the bullshit. I'm not in the-”My words were caught off by the four boys standing in front of me. Jake, Owen, Kian and Erin stood above me, staring down at me which had been our favorite stance since junior year. Jake was the one holding my headphones. “Well, would you look at that? The little rat came back for senior year. You have some balls on you, Carter. I have to give you that.”I didn't want any trouble so I didn't say anything. I just hoped that my lunch won't end up

You can go sit.”That wasn't the only stumbling that I did. As I walked back, Jake put his leg out for me to trip and I miscalculated avoiding it so I still tripped.

CARTERI went to school just like Collins said I should. Through the night, I'd called, texted and asked for a video of my mum so that I'll be sure that she was doing okay. I didn't want my mother to die just because of money. She was already going through so much because we couldn't afford to take her to the hospital. My whole being was distracted as I made my way to school. Our first class was chemistry and when I remembered the group project, I felt like ripping my hair out.As if my day couldn't get any worse. The car ride home had been silent, thankfully, and I mumbled a thank you as I got out of the car. Other groups left before us and I looked at the petri dish in front of me, wondering how on earth I was going to start a conversation with him. Thankfully, he put me out of my misery. “Are we going to leave too or what?”Without looking at him, I picked up the three dishes and got up. He followed after me and I figured that no one would want to go to the woods so that's wh
