Love Deprived

Chapter 20

Wysteria's P.O.V

It's April now. I have aged another year and have become one year closer to dating. Yet the one person that I want to be with has not spoken a word to me since February. Funny how crushes work isn't it? They can either make your day or completely ruin it, just by sending one wrong signal. That's all it takes. They can give you so much attention one day, and then completely ignore you the next. And they say girls are the bipolar ones. Yeah, tell that to Kendrick and Griffin. I get it, it's hard to talk to a girl you've had a crush on for a while, but I mean come on! You can't just expect us to actually walk up and talk to you like we've been your friends since forever. We're girls. It's just not something we do.

So anyway, both the guys are being super confusing and I've just about had it with their friends. I get that they're looking out for us, but do they have to be so creepy? I mean I've seen the way that some of those guys look at Bluebell and I, and they're supposed to be the guys' friends. There have been many times where I've been looked up and down by one of Griffin's best friends and I've shivered not because of the cold air that our crappy school has. Sometimes during spanish, I'll be talking to Alissa and Miranda, and I'll see two of Griffin's friends staring at me and basically recording everything I say or do in their minds to tell Griffin and Kendrick later.

Ugh and then there's the girls. Okay so there are some that are friends if Kendrick and so they will stalk me as well as the guys, and that doesn't really bother me because I'm not really friends with any of them. But then there are the girls that have a crush on Kendrick or Griffin and those girls tick me off to the point where I'd really like to smack their pretty little heads until they get it through their tiny minds that they will never get to date them. I'm pretty sure that Kendrick and Griffin's friends have told people that the guys are off limits but do those brainless girls listen? Nope. So Bluebell and I have to take it into our own hands. We don't do a lot but we have been known to glare at certain girls who like to openly flirt with our crushes. But can you blame us?

----------------------------------------------
Fast forward to the last week of school. So at first, both of the guys were being complete jerks, so Bluebell and I weren't doing the best. But towards the end of the week when we had finals, the guys completely changed their tune. Kendrick was constantly blushing and smiling at me, and Griffin was definitely paying more attention to Bluebell. It was really great for us... until the last day of school. First we both had choir together, and everyone was sad because it was our last year at our school before we went to the high school. Then we had fashion class, and we had to write an unnaturally long essay on an article of clothing that we made. Mine ended up being the entire page, plus another paragraph on the next page. At the end of the day, we had about ten minutes of free talk time, and that's when it really hit me that I was gonna be a sophomore. But I guess what was really sad was that I wasn't gonna get to see my friends a lot during summer. That was three months that I was gonna spend with maybe two weeks total that I would be around friends, and I had no idea what to do with myself otherwise, although knowing my mom, she would give me tons of chores to do that might just make me go insane. So while I was thinking this and trying not to cry, my friends and all the other girls in the class were talking about all the things they were gonna do over the summer. But I didn't really say anything because I wanted to stay on a high note for the end of the year, so I tried to stay cheerful, but I failed miserably at the end and Bluebell had to hug me. I pulled myself together so I could say goodbye to my friends, but I didn't really get to since they all left pretty fast. Talk about a sad afternoon but whatever. I did get to hang out with Alissa, Chase, and Kale for a little bit though. As I walked home, I listened to my music full blast and thought about next year. I thought about having classes with Kendrick or Griffin, and I kind of freaked out so I decided to think about show choir and choir. I remembered then that the lists for show choir were going up soon, so I hurried home with a little more happiness in me.

When I got home, I found my mom upstairs watching tv. We ate lunch and then she went to take a nap. I took that opportunity to catch up on reading and text some of my friends. Soon I had to go to my eye appointment, so while we were in the car I turned up the radio and looked out the window. I do that a lot. When we got there, I found out that my prescription had changed a lot more than I thought so the doctor brought up my prescription and then I got to choose my glasses. I ended up going to a different store though since I couldn't find anything.

When we got back to the car, we noticed that it had a flat tire! My mom was ticked since we were still around 45 minutes away from home. I checked my phone and found out that the lists had gone up so I quickly checked them while my mom looked for a gas station. I found out that I got into the more advanced group and I was really excited! Of course that also meant that I wasn't gonna have many friends in that group but I was still gonna be able to see them at school and rehearsal so I felt a little better. That's when the texts started coming. I had about four people texting me at once while my mom was talking to me. It was a bit hectic but I managed. We ended up at a consignment shop but we couldn't get home because our tire was still flat but it had gotten worse. So we stayed there for about an hour and a half and I got a really cute swimsuit for our family camping trip that was next week. Once we finally got home I stayed in my room and watched Netflix. I was most likely gonna do that any way during most of the summer so why not start early? But I couldn't stop thinking about the guys and Bluebell. What if I never see Kendrick over the summer? What if he ends up getting a girlfriend and completely forgets me because she's prettier or smarter or has a better personality than me? What will I do then? My head began to spin and ache just thinking about those questions, so I passed out thinking about what Cassie Blake was gonna do about her dad.

A/N: Not gonna lie this chapter is really boring and it sucks but I had to update so there ya go. My phone was being glitchy and wouldn't let me put the previous chapter into LD until now so really sorry that that took forever. I want you all to know that I'm gonna try really hard to update monthly over the summer, but it will be pretty hard so please don't be mad at me if I don't update for awhile. And lastly, I will be giving pictures of characters at the beginning again, starting with this chapter. The two characters above are Bluebell and Griffin. Okay bye!! Stay beautiful 💙

P.S the show that I'm talking about with Cassie Blake is The Secret Circle and I'm so sad because there's no season two 😩 *sigh* but I'll be okay. Okay bye again!
