The Middle School Struggle

"Layla I thought I told you NOT to be hanging out with Jordan all the time!" "Well I'm sorry that Jordan is my friend and we happen to get along very well. I am also sorry that Jordan is not your boyfriend so you cannot tell me if I may or may not hang out with him." "Well sheesh. I was just saying. Do you want everybody to think you like each other?" "Honestly I don't care."

How is it that every time a girl hangs out with a boy, everyone wants to assume that they like each other? Have you ever heard of the word... I don't know... FRIENDS!!?!?! Its so annoying when people think I am going out with Jordan or I like Jordan. Even if I tell them that I DO NOT like him like that, nobody believes me. My two closest friends, McKenzie and Malai, believe me. I mean I would be hurt if they were my closest friends but they didn't believe what I say.

Ohh lookie here. I just got a Kik message from Baller Boy #1 (Jordan). I shall open it now. *weird winky smirk face*

** On Kik**

Jordan: hey what is your phone number?

Layla: (910) 685 - 8296

Jordan: Okay thx. ;)

Well that was very very awkward. Incoming text message. Time to open it.

**On Text**

Jordan: hey this is jordan Wyd?

Layla: hey what's up hello! I'm sitting in the living room with Clarice

Jordan: Oh... Clarice

Layla: yeah I know. She's not all that bad. Wyd?

Jordan: eating food

Layla: I should 'a known

Jordan: you know me!

Layla: I have to go Clarice is leaving

Jordan: see yah later bye

Layla: hey stop stealing my fetty wap stuff

Jordan: lol bye Lay.

What a weird thing in the life. I think that Jordan might like me.... err.... maybe that was what Clarice was talking about. Do I like him back? I mean he is really cute and everything... I've never thought about Jordan like that though. I guess we'll find out in the next few weeks. *weird winky smirk face*
