The next day, Myla awoke with a smile on her face. She couldn’t stop thinking about yesterday and how much of a gentleman Kendall had been. It was a side of him that Myla didn’t see often and hoped to see everyday. She got up, grabbed some clothes from her closet and headed to the bathroom to shower, change, and get ready for the day.229Please respect copyright.PENANAXhJcPjPYMJ

Once she was done, she looked at her phone and saw a text from Brady, ‘Hey, couldn’t find you after the party? Something happen to you?’ Myla texted back as quickly as she could, ‘No, just headed out with a friend. Didn’t mean to frighten you, if I did, I’m sorry.’ She then headed downstairs and grabbed something to eat. Her mother walked into the kitchen, “Hey, I saw Kendall brought you home last night. What about that Brady kid?”229Please respect copyright.PENANAzUeJDeZ3os

Myla chucked, “Well, me and Kendall kinda headed to the park during the party for the sole fact that I just didn’t want to be there anymore and then he took me home. Nothing too big.” Her mother nodded then headed to the fridge to grab something to eat. “Well, at least you had fun right?” Myla nodded, placing her trash in the bin beside her and grabbing her bag, ‘Well, I’m heading out now! See ya later!” She then headed down the driveway to her car and headed towards school.229Please respect copyright.PENANAIwyM2nKXIV

Once there, she headed to her locker, only to see Kendall standing there. She was confused by this, but shook it off and headed towards him, “Hey, first time you’re here.” Kendall looked up from his phone, smiled, and then put it away. He nodded before saying, “Yeah, I just...I wanted to see you. I mean, after last night…” Myla chuckled, “I was hoping to see you too.” Kendall smiled, even though he thought that was a complete lie. Myla had never liked him, so it didn’t hurt him in anyway when she jokingly flirted with him from time to time, but this time, Myla wasn’t joking with him.229Please respect copyright.PENANA6ds2Iqzj7g

After the night at the park and the kiss on the cheek, Myla had been thinking differently on her view of Kendall and her feelings towards him. Was she indeed falling for him? Or was this just her heart leaping because she was pressured? She had no clue and decided to dive deeper into that pool later on tonight, when she was alone and could think. She then opened her locker while Kendall began speaking, “So, I was wondering what to do for that project in English. But, I have no clue of who I should do it on!”229Please respect copyright.PENANAZc8ghy4XQK
229Please respect copyright.PENANAY5HY3fNruz
Myla chuckled, “Well, maybe, on our call tonight, I can help you out!” Kendall smiled, “Yeah, I’d like that very much!” Myla smiled, opening her locker and getting her books for 1st through 4th period, “Alright then, I’ll have to remember that when I get home.” Kendall nodded, closing Myla’s locker when she was done with it and walked with her to first period 229Please respect copyright.PENANAUcCIMhWhxw

Fourth period came around and Kendall and Myla were working on a paper when Brady came over and took a seat next to Myla, “Hey there Myla and…” Kendall huffed, “My name is Kendall.” He nodded, “Yeah, right, that’s what it is. Anyway, Myla, I was wondering if maybe you wanted to hang out after school today.” Myla smiled, a small blush forming on her cheeks, “Um, can I think about it and get back to you?” Brady nodded and then got up and walked back to his seat with all his friends.229Please respect copyright.PENANAvHPuX417MS
229Please respect copyright.PENANAsLX9zTuuXS
Kendall looked to Myla in a look of varied jealousy and disbelief, “Really? You really just agreed to him? What if he takes you to a dirty alley way and kills you?” Myla looked to him in shocked and then chuckled, “I’m pretty sure that’s over the top there sir.” Kendall nodded, shrugging, “Yeah, maybe it is. But, it still could happen.” Myla chuckled, “Yeah, yeah, I know. I’ll be careful!” Kendall nodded, going back to work on the paper, Myla following in suit.229Please respect copyright.PENANAqmr5pqo2b4

Kendall’s mind was everywhere. From last night to just now, Kendall couldn’t think of anything else but Myla. Something about Brady asking her out raised red flags in his mind and made him a bit worried. Brady was known for going out with girls, breaking their hearts a few days later, and then spreading something about them the next day. He just didn’t want the same to happen to Myla. “Kendall!” Myla said, snapping her fingers in front of his face. He blinked his eyes a few times and then looked to Myla, “Uh, oh, sorry I wasn’t really paying attention.” Myla chuckled, “I could tell. I was asking you if you knew what this answer was. I forget what you have to do here.” Kendall nodded, helping her out all while still thinking of her and Brady’s plans after school.229Please respect copyright.PENANADWvvl0509u

At the end of the day, Kendall and Myla were walking to her locker when they found Brady standing there, seeming to be waiting for Myla. They walked closer and Brady gave Myla a soft smile, “Hey, so, you still wanna hang out?” Myla chuckled, opening her locker and placing her books in there, “I was thinking about it. And, I would like too. But, me and Kendall here we're going to head to my place and then I was going to see about meeting up with you somewhere.” Brady nodded, looking to Kendall, “Yeah, I’ll meet up with you sometime later. I was just hoping that we could have all day too hang out.”229Please respect copyright.PENANAkJK9DEAXY1

Myla went to close her locker, but Kendall had already slammed it shut and was standing in between Myla and Brady, “She said she would meet up with you later on. Alright?” Brady nodded, doing nothing more but staring at Kendall. “Alright,” He then shifted his glance at Myla, “I’ll see you later then.” He then turned and walked away. Kendall sighed, letting all the tension he had go and turned to look at Myla, who had a look of confusion and shock on her face, “What was that for?”229Please respect copyright.PENANAjt88m95d1t
229Please respect copyright.PENANAaeFw9A0fn2
Kendall shrugged, “No idea. I just...I didn’t want him pressuring you into going with him.” Myla chuckled, “I like the protectiveness. But, tone it down a bit. It’s alright to like, tell someone to step down, but to almost go and punch them?!” Kendall shook his head, “No, I didn’t. I wasn’t even close.” Myla chuckled, “You balled your fists up like you were going to. Even before you did that.” Kendall looked at Myla for a bit, then chuckled slightly, “Alright, maybe I did have the intention. But it’s not like I would actually do it! Have you ever heard of me getting into a fight?”229Please respect copyright.PENANAhRTkPgHOB9
229Please respect copyright.PENANAl80OBpz7nG
Myla chuckled, “If it has something to do with me, I’d believe it. Come on, we won’t have much time if we just dawdle around here.” Kendall nodded, following Myla to her car. When they had gotten inside and Myla had turned the car on, Kendall looked to her, “Myla. Remember last night? What we talked about?” Myla looked to him and nodded, “Of course, I wouldn’t forget it for the world! It was really...what’s the word I want to say...special.” Kendall chuckled, a small blush forming on his cheeks. He then looked to the ground and continued on,229Please respect copyright.PENANAZ3JR43h6Dq

“Have you...even thought about it? I mean, I’m not rushing you or anything, but, I just want to see where your mind is at the moment. I know you probably are just thinking that it would be weird if we did go out, but, I don’t think it would be. I just...really want to know if you feel or think the same. If not, I’ll stop bringing it up and everything and you’ll never hear it again…”229Please respect copyright.PENANATFJovshOW6
229Please respect copyright.PENANA64hEyREJT8
Myla had stopped him by putting her hand over his mouth, as this was the only way she knew it would shut him up, “Kendall, I have been thinking about it. I just...don’t know where my mind lies at the moment. When I figured everything out, I’ll tell you. In three weeks time, of course.” Kendall sighed, “Really?! Gotta tease me like that?” Myla chuckled, backing out of the parking space and beginning to drive towards her place.229Please respect copyright.PENANAhs9OSSgkWA

Kendall sat in the passenger seat, looking at the window and just thinking to himself. He knew it was going to be three long weeks before any shred of light of hope shone into his world.229Please respect copyright.PENANA1YeiheINPs
