Amora

I flipped the packet over, immediately letting out a whine and slumped down into my seat once seeing a new fresh worksheet.

I rolled my eyes, huffing as I threw it back onto the desk. Crossing my arms as I leaned back and stared at it.

The phone then rang, luckily completely not making me piss my pants this time. I sighed tiredly, reaching over and picking up the phone.

"Hello?" I spoke, lazily resting my head into my hands.

"Amora?" Bennys voice spoke. Instantly making my heart stop.

I was completely not expecting it. After so many times of thinking it'd be him calling and it turns out to not. I grew use to it. I've tried to call him to of course ramble and spill about Penelope but nope. Nothing. Nada.

"Benny?" I immediately sat up in my chair, feeling my heart quicken.

"Hi..uh how are-

"Amora. I'm..I'm- just coming over ok?" He sharply cut me off.

That instantly made me frown. He sounded upset. "Oh..alright"

Without another word he cut off the line. Leaving me in confusion as I slowly removed the phone from my ear.

——

I was practically fiddling in my sit as I attempted to continue with my work. I couldn't, I was nervous to say the least. I mean I haven't seen him in what felt like a while and now I suddenly will, except he now sounded upset with me?

I huffed, finally ditching the pencil as I rested my head onto my hand. Continuing to stare down at the paper.

The door suddenly bursted open making me quickly sit up, looking over to see Benny. Instantly growing angry when seeing Penelope behind him.

I shot up from the chair, walking over towards him. "Benny why the hell haven't you-

"Amora. I- I. My god" he huffed, looking away and shaking his head angrily as he looked down towards the ground.

Immediately my feared thoughts have come true. He did in fact look upset, and with me. "Benny?"

He looked up, shaking his head as he stared at me. "Amora. I want you to be honest with me ok?"

Instantly my heart began to quicken. I felt as though I was a child definitely in trouble and now being scolded. "Ok.."

He stared at me for a moment, continuing to slightly shake his head "Please. I swear to god tell me it's not true"

"What? What's not true?" I quickly snapped, feeling my stomach turn at his words.

He continued to stare at me once more, licking his lips as he huffed and looked away "Penelope. She told me that you..and Theo. She told me you're cheating on me"

"She said she saw you guys together a few days ago. And then when she asked him about it..he said you brought him back here and.. you know what Amora" he trailed off, continuing to stare down at the floor.

Immediately my eyes widened, letting out a light scoff. Not only at the fact that she would say that but that he even for a second believed it.

"Benny. Are you serious right now-

"Just tell me ok. Is it true?" He abruptly cut me off.

"Benny..no. God no what the hell?" I slowly lowered my voice, shaking my head in denial.

He didn't reply. Continuing to stare down at the floor, sighing lightly as he brought a hand up and ran it through his hair.

"Please for the love of god tell me you're not even buying that completely bogus story Benny" I snapped, staring at him in confusion.
