Freckles & Promises (BxB) ✔️

A/N: the italicized and bold writing is in a different language (in this case, Japanese)

I am so sorry, but this will be the last Wednesday update until the entire story is written. I just joined a club and got a summer job, so I'll be a little busy with that these days and won't have all day to write. I've done some planning and found out that this book will be around 35 chapters. But don't worry, once the book is all written, there will be an update every day. I hope you understand! Thanks!

Hola Diary...

Alright. Interesting day... um. I'm not saying anything to spoil what happened, but right now, I'm very relieved. But I'm also kinda scared still? Honestly, I'm still figuring out my feelings concerning my situation, but I think I'm okay for now.

I didn't get much, or any, sleep last night again and I think it's really starting to affect me. Even my mom made a comment about my 'ginormous black holes under my ey...

"...es."

"I do not!"

"Yes you do, I can see them! Huge dark circles," my mom said. I huffed, rubbing at them. I hated not sleeping. Closing my eyes, I sighed. My mom began to bustle around in the kitchen. Was she making something? I checked the time and grabbed some money for the school's vending machine. I was probably going to want some coffee or something later.

"Irresponsible teenager. Never getting sleep," my mom mumbled when I yawned. I glared at her.

"I can understand you."

"I know."

"Rude..." I grumbled, cramming the money into my pocket. I skipped out on breakfast and drove to school, picking Blake up on the way. Getting in the passenger seat, he chucked his bag in the backseat. He turned the radio on, but turned it down when he saw my face.

"You look like a zombie!" he grimaced, making a noise. I glared at him and he held his hands up, shrugging and smiling a little.

"Hey, it's true," he defended himself. I rolled my eyes at the boy and began to drive, turning the radio back up.

I'm drunk off your kiss
For another night in a row
This is becoming too routine for me
But I did not mean to lead you on

I switched the station, Blake shooting me a funny look. I usually turned the volume up when that song came on, but not this time. The lyrics bothered me today.

Here we go again, I kinda want to be more than friends

"Ah!" I yelled, switching it again. Blake jumped.

I fell for a boy-

"AH! Goddamnit...," I hissed, switching the stations again. Blake swatted my hand away and switched it back to Animal by Neon Trees.

Here we are again, I feel the chemicals kicking in
It's getting heavy and I want to run and hide
I want to run and hide
I do it every time, you're killing me now

"I like this song. What's wrong with you today?" he asked, glancing at me. I didn't answer, but instead just drove silently to school. Not gonna lie, I wanted to run and hide. See what I did there?

I switched the radio off when I parked and got out of the Lamborghini, Blake following. We both walked into the building, chatting. We split to go to our own lockers and I stopped at Christian's and waited for a minute before he never showed up, again. I sighed and dragged myself to my own locker.
