"Sebastian? What are you doing here?" "Are you crying?" He walked closer to me. "Julia answer the question." "Yes I am crying." "Why?" "None of your business, now out." I pointed at the window. "I'm not leaving till you tell me why you're crying." "Why do you think Seb. Cause I'm scared. Tonight made me realize everything I've been missing out on. I haven't had a normal life. And eventually I'm gonna leave everything and everyone I care about behind."
"You can think that way, you're a fighter it's what you do." "Well maybe I don't want to fight anymore. Maybe I just surrender the fight." "No." He grabbed my hand. "The fight isn't over until someone wins. If you surrender then there is no real winner." He leaned close to me, like he was gonna kiss me. But I dodged him. "What the hell are you doing?" "Um looking at your lip, it's pretty swollen you might want to get some ice on it." "Right, thanks." He climbed back out the window.
The next morning I felt like crap. It was either from drinking the wine coolers or being hit in the face. I sneak into Moms room and take some of her makeup. I decided to take Gigi's tips. I curled my hair, put on a cute outfit, and walked into school like I didn't care, even though I did. Everyone was staring, but these weren't the normal stares. Sawyer and the group comes up to me. "Oh my lord, you look great." "Sawyer who's your friend? She's hot." "Ew Ian it's me Julia." "Oh, then she's not that hot." "Hey!" I punched him in the arm. "Damn your strong."
"Hey Seb look at Jules new look." "Yeah she looks." "Great yeah I know." Blake puts his arm around me. "So you wanna head to English?" "Yeah sure." We walked to English. "Yo Seb are they together?" "Looks like it." "So dude Gigi was telling that you asked her out on a date." "Why the hell would you do that Seb?" "Cause I felt like it Sawyer." "Dude why her?" "You know what Ian, stop asking questions and go to class, maybe you'll actually learn something." "Hey Say what's up with him?" "I don't Ian but whatever it is, he better get over before Jules birthday party on Friday. She deserves to have a good party, and her mom asked me to plan it."
"So Sawyer tells me your birthdays on Friday." "Yeah." "What do you want?" "You don't need to get we me anything Blake." "Yes I do." I had no idea what I wanted, mostly cause I didn't need anything. "Really I don't know, maybe ask Sawyer she knows me best." "Alright." When we get to English we go to our seats. "Hello class, as I said yesterday we are almost done with our book and the final on it will be in a week." To be honest I had already finished the book last week. The final wasn't the thing I was worried about. Seb was acting weird this morning. Is this about last night, or about Gigi?
Since when did high school get so difficult, why can't it just be like in High School Musical. Singing, dancing and no drama. If you can't tell I love High School Musical. I watch like every month. It's the only thing that makes me happy, well it used to be. Blake is a great guy. But like my mom always says "sometimes the second choice is the best one."
