"Oh shit I only have 10 minutes to get ready and then I have to leave"
I said to myself while looking up at my clock. I mean it's not like I need more than that to get ready, it was perfect timing really. First day of senior year and after that I am finally allowed to ask Larisa out, I mean those were the rules me and my bestfriend Jake made. The rules said I couldn't be friends with her or be nice to her for her entire life but after we graduate I could finally ask her out, he made these rules because he thinks she will never like me if I was rude to her her entire life. I just hope that isn't true. I'm just so excited because Jake said I could actually be nice to her this year, but I couldn't drop my act that fast I mean she would suspect things. She's the most beautiful, smartest and funniest person I even met and she is such a good singer and musician.
I walked out of my house to get to my car when I saw her, when she saw me I could tell she needed a ride but was afraid to ask.
"Get in"
I told her after she started leaving towards her house.
"I would rather walk the entire way to school thank you very much"
Does she really hate me that much
"Suit yourself"
I drove off because I didn't want to push her but after around 5 minutes I could tell she wasn't going to get to school in time. I pulled over, rolled down my window and said
"Get in Larisa"
She looked at me like she was about to get kidnapped
"Fine, but only because I want to get to school in time"
"So you can get a spot in the music program?" "How'd you know, you fucking creep!"
"Hey be sure you know who you're calling a creep, Jake was just talking about it."
I mean he told me months ago but I just remembered because she's very talented and I want her to get in. The entire ride to school she stayed silent, when we arrived she just walked out not saying a word to me.
When I looked at my schedule I had chemistry first, fucking hell. I walked in and I got relieved when I saw Larisa, but she was talking to Arren the new kid who apparently was bad news I had to make sure he would never talk to her again.
"Hey so you're the new kid nice to meet you I'm Alden, oh and I see you've met the girl who makes a creepy song about everybody she meets"
She looked so mad when Arren took a new seat, I didn't say a word and just walked away.
After school I saw her walking again
"You want a ride home or are you going to walk again"
I felt very bad about embarrassing her in front of Arren, but I had to play it cool.
"You know you're a fucking asshole"
"How come"
I tried to say it while laughing but all I could think about is how it is true, I am an asshole
"You're the most selfish, shittiest, Jerkiest and dumbest excuse of a person"
Ouch that hurt.
"You know I heard that Arren is no good so I should get a thank you"
"And you should know that I can perfectly stand up for myself so I don't need you in my life"
"Fine, walk"
Those words made me realize maybe I can't win her back in a year, maybe she really doesn't need me in her life, but I do need her.

When I got home I texted Jake everything that happened and we got in an argument because I thought it was his fault because of his stupid rules. He told me he's sorry but there's nothing he can do now.
At night I just wanted to see Larisas face again, I shined a flashlight trough her curtain hoping for a response, it never came. Because of the rules Jake forced Larisa to take the room in front of mine so I could 'win her over' in our senior year easier, even tho it has just been the first day, it is not as easy as I thought it would be. I couldn't sleep that night, I was up thinking about how I fucked up and about how she hates the living hell out of me.
