Is It Love?

Chapter Eleven

Lily's POV

Wednesday

This is the first day I've seen Violet all week. I don't know if we just haven't run into each other yet or she wasn't here. Either way, do I approach her? Or wait for her to see me? I'm gonna wait for her to see me.

She said to act like it never happened- so that's what I'm going to do. It's my free period, I have class in about 30 minutes I think. I'm walking around to keep myself busy, I see her doing the same. I take a breath and pull out my phone, deciding to ignore the whole situation until she sees my existence.

No texts. None.

Not a single one, it's sad honestly. Why when I actually want to talk to someone my phone is drier than a desert. I'm mindlessly scrolling through my phone, I'm noticing boredom is something I'm feeling a lot more lately. Yesterday was nice, but that was the most exciting thing that has happened since-

"Lily? Hey!" I look towards the sound, it's Violet. She seems normal. Maybe this nothing happened thing will be easier than I thought. "Hey, there you are! How are you? I haven't seen you this week."

She breaks eye contact for a split second, "uh yeah I think I drank too much this weekend, I've felt a little sick."

"Oh okay, your better now?"

"Oh yeah totally." she smiles, "but if anyone asks, I didn't drink and I just got a bug."

I laugh and bring my hands up in surrender, "hey me too, I won't tell if you don't."

"Then it never happened."

Silence is there for a minute, neither of us knowing what to say, "so how long till last period?" I ask.

She looks down at her phone and turns it on, looking at it for a second, "oh only like twelve minutes."

My eyes widen, "wow that's not that long, I should make sure I'm ready for the class." I feel an urge to end the conversation, it feels a little hard to talk, maybe I'm just worried about the class I don't know. "Yeah same," she smiles and looks around, "um bye talk to you later." she then says while she walked away.

Sighing, I open my phone again and open messaging. Typing quickly, sending it, and putting my phone back into my pocket.

What's up weirdo

I start walking to my next, and last, class. I remember it's another "study day", I might as well make a chart of how many boring activities I do.

~~

"Anyway, how dare you greet me earlier as "weirdo", if anything your the weirdo here." I hear Rea say through the speaker of my phone. My phone is sitting on the passenger seat of my car, I look at it quickly, then laugh, "nope your definitely a weirdo. I mean, have you met you?"

"Um yes I have met me, I mean I am me." I laugh again, "I know your you, I mean you should know your weird."

"Fine, I am weird, nothing is wrong with it."

"I never said there was."

I can just tell she rolled her eyes, "yeah whatever," I hear her speak again, "how long till your home?"

I look at my surroundings, "uh maybe 10 minutes at most."

"That sucks, is your mom home?"

"Yep, found out this morning she will be home every day this week, fun right."
