Monty

20: Girlfriend

Montgomery

Diego is the closest to Lucy than any of the guys.

Not as close as me though

I feel like he'll know how I could get Lucy back or at least get her to forgive me.

She said she forgives me and that it's not my fault but she acts otherwise.

She hasn't been talking to me much the past two weeks and it's killing me slowly.

She hasn't been baking me cookies or sending me messages with a million emojis and for some reason it hurts.

It's the little things she stopped doing that hurt the most

She doesn't sit beside me when we go on missions or when we go to the gym. She doesn't get excited when I walk into the room. She doesn't talk my ears off when she's in the car with me and it hurts.

"Monty- wasn't expecting you" Diego said pouring me a glass of lemonade

"I know um-I need your help"

He sits down and looks at me.

"Lucy- she won't talk to me....it's like she doesn't care anymore"

"To be honest Monty if I were her I'd act the same way-you were pretty fucking cold to her when she first came and that whole thing two weeks ago—it fucking broke her"

He's right I was and I know it did.

"I know...any ideas on how to get her back though, i tried everything"

He shrugs his shoulders "stop being a dick head-smile every now and then and don't be a dick"

"Diego I'm serious"

"Fine ok...make her jealous or something" he sighs

"How"

"I don't know date another girl, flirt—make her want you"

"How do I flirt with another girl? You do realise she's the first girl I've like since I was 9"

"Do you remember last year we'd go to clubs-you and Claude would dance with girls and buy them drinks and then you know-maybe go back to their apartments...that sort of thing"

He laughs and shakes his head
It must be funny to him but to me it isn't.

"I know but I never like any of them and I physically cant do that with any other girl except for her anymore"

He lays my shoulder.
"It's ok man,i can see you're trying and she can too. Just keep pushing"

How the fuck does a guy flirt.

Make her jealous?

She's the only girl I want I don't know how to communicate with any other girl except for her anymore.

I watch her across the room as she lightly bops her head while reading some documents.

"Um so do you need a ride home" I ask her

"Yea sure" she says before grabbing her stuff and waking out the door.

"So how was your day"

"Good"

"Any plans for the weekend"

"Sleep" she doesn't even look at me

These one word answers are killing me

I look down at her legs and she's still wearing the braclet around her ankle. This gives me a bit of relief.

"Lucy do you want to go out  this weekend or something...please"
