Blinding Sights

highly intoxicated

It's a Thursday and Halloween is on a Monday this year. Meaning that all students will celebrate during the weekend. People party Friday but go all out on Saturday. Sunday is when people usually recover from the crazy weekend. Although it is nice we have Thursday and Friday off. I think the school decided to give student the days since they most don't usually show up. I. did have a couple of exams and essays to turn in before the weekend.

Junior school year has been a challenge so far but I've been working very hard. I want to become writer, hoping someday to publish my books. It's not an easy career and I know I will definitely have to work hard to get to where I'm at. I tend to keep a journal, writing just poems. for now, most of them inspired by my Lizzie. I hope I can turn my words into something even bigger. I'm not sure what yet, but I have time to figure it out.

Ever since I was a kid my family always said I have a way with words. I truly only thought they said that because they're my family. I believed they were forced to say that.

That was until I showed my first lover my stuff, Olivia. She was the kindest soul. Olivia taught me how to play piano and I have never stopped since. We were best friends growing up and it wasn't until High school that we started dating. She's someone who will follow me for the rest of my life. I wish things would've been different.

Now I have Lizzie. I think each day I'm falling harder for her. I have never felt this deep for anyone, not even Oli. I know Lizzie will never feel the same and it breaks my heart, but if I get to have her in my life even as just a friend, that's more than enough for me.

I decide to get in work out since I have the day off. I've been swimming more often lately, it's such a comfort. It helps me clear my head. Swimming always reminds me of Sammy. I miss him so much. I go on to start with some laps doing freestyle. I then finish with some laps doing the butterfly stroke.

After my workout I head over to my dorm. I go ahead and take a nice hot shower. I get myself into a some grey sweatpants and a hoodie. I go over and make myself some lunch. I decide to go with a simple salad. As I eat my salad I smile at the notification that appears on my phone.

Lizzie

Wanna come over?

Y/N

Hmm? I'll think about it.

Lizzie

Pleaseee? Te extraño

I smile at the Spanish text, I've been teaching her lately.

Y/N

Bug you just saw me yesterday in class.

Lizzie

Not enough, I want some Y/N time.

Y/N

Lol I'll see you soon.

I roll my eyes to myself when I catch myself smiling at my phone like an idiot. I need to get a grip.

Before I make my way out I receive a phone call. My dad appearing on the screen.

Hi Papi

Hola mi niña, como estas? (Hello my little girl, how are you?)

I've been good dad, what about you guys? How's mom?

We've been doing better actually, although we miss our little girl.

I miss you guys too.

How's school going?

It's hard, but I'm managing. I'm working really hard.

I'm glad to hear that mi niña, just as I always taught you.
