Lunch came quickly and I grabbed a tray of food thanking the lunch lady. I scanned the cafeteria searching for my actual friends and spotted them in the back corner.
I started making my way down when I stopped quickly in front of an outstretched leg placed meticulously to humiliate someone. I looked to see the owner of it, a jock with a giggling girl next to him.
I rolled my eyes stepping on his foot instead of walking around it. Kids were sometimes cruel like that.
I took a seat next to MJ "hey guys" I said smiling slightly. They all said their hellos and then Ned and MJ continued with their conversation.
It was something along the lines of is cereal considered soup but I wasn't really paying attention all I knew was MJ was against the argument and Ned was for the argument.
"Hey what's wrong and don't say nothing I can tell" Peter whispered as he saw me stabbing at my food carelessly.
I sighed before staring back at the walking lie detector.
"Ok do you remember Tyler the guy I told you about last night?" I asked and Peter nodded "well, I sat next to him in Biology like he asked and he just turned out to be rude" I said sighing.
"Oh I'm sorry" Peter apologised and I shook my head.
"No it's my fault for getting my hopes up" I shrugged "anyways do you wanna hang out tonight?" I asked hopefully.
"Actually I told Ned I'd hang with him" he said "I can cancel if you like" he suggested.
"No don't you guys have fun Ned has been your friend for much longer I don't wanna come between that" I said and Peter nodded.
I started walking to my last class of the day when I was stopped in the corridor by someone "hey wait up" someone called out and I stopped to see Tyler running up to me.
I contemplated running away but chose against it deciding to hear him out.
"Look I'm sorry about earlier" he said and I nodded, off to a great start "maybe we can try again we don't have to tell your boyfriend?" he suggested
"Are you serious?" I asked and he nodded stupidly.
Ok maybe this boy wasn't the sweet and shy kid I thought he was.
"No" I simply said
"Oh come on look I'll be honest, I was dared by Flash to go out with you if I don't he's making sure I'm not going to homecoming" he said desperately
"When you told me you had a boyfriend I lost hope but please you understand right I don't know why it has to be you but he was very specific" he continued
"Like that's any of my fucking problem Flash only dared you that cause he's all hurt someone stood up to him for once, he's trying his best to mess my relationship up, you're really dense if you think I'm going out with you" I said trying to walk away.
"Just please" he pleaded grabbing my upper arms making my back lean flush against a set of lockers, trapping me in
"Get the hell off me I owe you nothing I couldn't care less if you go to homecoming or not" I said pushing him away roughly
"Stand up for yourself maybe, don't be a little bitch and don't go accepting dares you can't complete" I said walking off a little hurt.
I sat in maths alone at the back just wanting the day to be over so I could go home and bury my face in my pillow.
