Obsession: Revealed

“His obsession with what?”
“Its almost midnight, Gabe. We’ll talk later,” Before I could stop her she already hung up. Damn. I thought, What did she mean?

My alarm screamed at exactly 7:30. I had 30 minutes to get ready for a long day. I walked to school with my laptop in my bookbag, to check ficlets.com since I wasnt able to the day before. The principal quickly guided me to my homeroom and there was Jared.
“Since this isnt real Saturday school you are able to talk and everything. But I expect you two to solve your problems.” Then he left, leaving Jared and I alone. I took out my laptop while he stared at me.
“Can I help you?” I asked coldly.
“Whats your problem lately?” He said innocently.
“You are,” He gasped.
“You’ve been avoiding me! If anything its you,”
“I’m not the one being all obsessive” He didnt say anything. He just stood there. Why was he so offended by that word. Then I thought back to the conversation with Jueli. “Uh, Jared’s… obsession?â€?
Did she mean… me?
