Life, Not Roses

What Are We

"Bye guys!" Amitola squeals.
"Is Alice staying another night?" Jia frowned.
"No, she's just getting picked up later.." Amitola smiled, patting Jia's shoulder.
"Bye everyone!" I smiled brightly.
"Bye you two!" Layla smirked.

after everyone left,
we went up to amitola's room
and watched them ride away
out the window

"So, why aren't you eating anything.." I look at her with a serious face.
"You promise you won't tell anyone..?" She mutters.
"Why would I tell anyone?" I frown.
"I just don't want my mom or dad to get in trouble.." She sighs.
"Okay.." I say softly.
"So after I came out to them.. they thought I was just pansexual because no boy wanted me.." She stuttered.
"What do you mean..?" I said quietly.
"They thought that no boy wanted me, so I just resorted to anyone I could get.." She muffled.
"So why aren't you eating food?" I questioned softly.
"They thought that if I went on diets and wore more makeup, more men would want me.." She mumbled.
"What the hell is wrong with your parents..?" I growled.
"But I love them so much, please just don't say anything.." She pleaded timidly.
"If I can't say anything, what can I do..?" I sighed.
"Buy me extra food.." She smirked.
"I can do that.." I smiled, hugging her softly.
"Tomorrow, before you go.." She smiled, "You want to go somewhere special?"
"Like where?" I grinned.
"A surprise.." She giggled.
"I love surprises!" I chuckled.
"So.. what do you wanna do..?" She solicited.
"I do have a question.." I stuttered.
"Shoot," She giggled.
"What are we?" I questioned timidly.
"Huh?" She looked up at me.
"Are we friends or..?" I trailed off.
"What do you want us to be..?" She smirked, slithering her hands around my waist softly.
"I think you already know though.." I grinned, pulling her closer.
"You have to say it.." She whispered, smiling.
"I want you to be my girlfriend, Amitola," I whispered back.
"I know.." She whispered softly in my ear, "I do too,"
