Ballads of Summer

Books and Boys

Meet me. I'm Miranda. 17 years old and I don't know. I just don't wanna care in this world though. By the way, I threw my combat boots and my damn boyish stuffs. I am wearing my gray skirt and my Ramone's shirt matched with my heeled boots. Many stuffs happened since me and Nathan got lost in the freaking woods. Man! That was scary if you're a kid. Nathan left our neighbor since we got lost in the woods. I don't know. Luckily, we're schoomates and we're still bestfriends. Nathan wasn't chubby anymore, he's buffed up. His hair was brushed up and he looks freaking hot. His almond shaped eyes were on me right now. Gawd he's so perfect! Why can't he have a girlfriend? Is he gay? Oh no.

"Hey Miranda" he winked at me.

"Hey shitty Nate" I raised one brown.

"You look hot"

"Ofcourse, i shouldn't deny it"

"Damn! I'm lying"

"Go away!"

"Where's your boyfriend?"

"Josh? I don't know"

Josh. My boyfriend. He was a part of the debate team. I won't forget when I turned down Nathan over Josh. Josh looks better than Nathan before. Nathan and I fought that time. It was just silly how we pretend like we didn't like each other back when we were kids. Josh was lanky and have eyeglasses. His eyes were light brown and so as his hair. His hair looked like he just rolled out of bed. He was 6 foot tall. He was Nathan's cousin. Silly, eh? Josh is like my dream, i don't ever know. Nathan's my dream too. I don't want Nathan anymore. Past is past, right? Well we didn't have a past. Whatever.

Josh was in his button-down shirt and jeans. He looked washed up. He wrapped his arms on my waist and lokked at me.

"Hey Miranda" he kissed my forehead.

"Josh" I smiled.

Nathan was just blinking at us.

"I should go" Nathan smiled.

"Oh c'mon Nath. Just get use to us" Josh smiled.

"Oh c'mon Josh"

"Nath you better get a girl right now"

"I wish I could but I don't fall for anyone yet"

"Your answer's very gay"

"Shut up!"

"Fine!"

We just laughed. It was just awkward. I saw the 3 mean girls. Britanny in her skimpiest white dress ever. She dyed her hair blonde. She got hazel eyes and she was like eating up Nathan by her looks. Anastasia was the red head girl with green eyes. She was in her skimpiest sun dress too. Diana, the queen bee. She was wearing a blue skirt with a black tank top. She was in her 5 inches heels. All of them were like staring at my gorgeous bestfriend, Nathan.

"You better swoop one of those" Josh smiled at Nathan.

"Nah..." Nathan laughed.

"They look perfect on you"

"Not like those socialites"

"You got a fair point"

I just sighed. It was our dismissal. We went to Josh's house. Nathan went to his room, just next door to Josh. Josh and I went to his room. His room was just plain with a king-sized bed at the middle and messy study table. I just lied down on his king sized bed and looked up at the ceiling. He just lied down beside me.

"You look hot seriously" he smiled at me.

"Thanks" I smiled back.

He slowly kissed me and it was good. I just stared at him and removed his eyeglasses. I let my arms wrapped around him. Thoughts were running through my head. I wanna hold him forever but it just doesn't work. I just looked staright through his eyes. He just looked at me. I didn't know if I still wanna hang or what. I saw a text message from Britanny in his inbox. They were flirting seriously. It just hurt.
