The end of my junior year is coming to a close. Finals are rapidly approaching and I've barely touched any of my studying material or finished my homework assignments.
Danielle is lucky and does not have to both studying for finals. Seniors with a GPA over 3.0 are exempt from finals... unless they choose to take them. Her graduation is this upcoming Saturday. Five days. Just a mere five days until she's free of this hell hole.
And I'm stuck here. She's leaving me to fend for myself.
Granted, Danielle isn't the only friend I have; I actually have quite a lot of friends both involved and not involved in music and theater. And, of course, there's Andrea who has been fierce and loyal by my side since the day I met her. Despite her love for gossip, I know she doesn't utter a word about my personal problems to another soul. But Danielle is my best best friend.
Everyone is aware of the term "soulmates" and how it applies to romantic couples whose souls are joined together. They are inevitably drawn to each other and most couples cannot resist their attractions. However, not everyone is aware of how soulmates can apply to other nonromantic situations.
Danielle and I are best friend soulmates. Due to her struggles in the past, she related to me and befriended me almost immediately. From that point on, we've been there for each other. Laughing at some pointless joke, singing an harmonizing along to songs in her car while she drives us from one place to the next, sitting in a peaceful silence until we both fall asleep.
All of this sounds like a romantic relationship, but Danielle and I have feel nothing but friendly love. Albeit our friendship runs deep, we both have a preference in the male gender... unfortunately.
Lately, I've been wishing I wasn't attracted to the male species due to one person: Lucas. Most boys have a history of making relationships complicated. Girls are stereotyped to be the downfall of all relationships when really, the guy can be the melodramatic one. Of course, this doesn't apply in every scenario, but from most of the relationships I've personally witnessed, the girl wears the pants in their relationship. Which leads me to my current predicament.
My mind will not stop working. The gears are constantly turning. A mile a minute. It's a deadly sprint and not a slower race; like a marathon.
And all because of him. Lucas.
It's been a month since that fateful night at the prom. The briefly intimate moment between us will not leave my mind. The searing kiss haunts my dreams at night. It consumes my every thought during the day. But yet, it also leaves me with a hollow hole in my chest. Not just from watching Lucas walk away from me again, but also for Sunni.
It's been a month and Lucas continues to promise me he will break up with her. However, he hasn't made any moves to do so. This is when I come to the realization that Sunni will never know. Sunni will never know because Lucas will never break up with her.
