Infatuated (Lumity human AU fanfic)

~FIFTEEN~

~A pretty girl walks by my locker~

--------------------------

"Hey, Willow." Amity waves awkwardly as she approaches her and Gus, standing beside Luz.

"Hey Amity." Willow waves back in the same way.

"I just figured you should know that, if my parents hadn't made me abandon you.."

"I know."

"But I'm done with caring about that. I'm ready to be myself. So.. maybe we can start over?" Amity holds her hand out for Willow to shake.

"I don't think I'm ready to completely start over. We're not friends... yet. But it's a start, alright?" Willow smiles, Amity nods happily as Willow shakes her hand.

"Well then, lets get started on the fun part of the dance!" Gus exclaims. Amity feels the heat rise to her face as Luz grabs her hand again, dragging her to the center of the dance floor. The four of them dance for a bit before Willow suggests they go to the photo booth. They wait in line, giggling about whatever.

"Hey, Amity?" Amity spins around to see one of the last people she wanted to see again for tonight. 

"Go away Elias, I told you I'm not gay and I don't like you. Leave me alone." She crosses her arms.

"Well, I figured you should know that I never liked you either. My friends kinda pressured me into saying I did." he shakes his head. "I know it's no excuse, but I'm not into girls. Never have been. I still don't want to be your friend. We both did shitty stuff. Just promise you won't tell anyone?"

"Yeah, I think I can do that." Amity nods.

"Alright, see you around weirdo." He walks away at that, leaving Amity confused.

"I knew he smelled fruity." Gus nods. Willow, Luz, and Amity all laugh at his statement.

"Seriously." Luz agrees.

"Ooh! It's open!" Willow exclaims, walking over to the backdrop as the other three join her. Willow poses with peace signs, Gus jumps up in the air happily, and Luz puts her arm around Amity. Amity isn't sure how to react until the camera had already flashed, so the picture had been taken. It printed four different times so they could all take one. Amity was embarrassed at how pink her cheeks are in the picture, but she loved it. She loved that she looks happy.

Genuinely happy.
