~ Now ~
November 22ndAngelina sat crossed legged on her bed in her dorm room against the headboard with her laptop on her legs. Conrad sat diagonally from her, leaning against the wall with his legs spread out on her bed hanging on the edge with a biology book across his lap.
"Okay, so question number five on the homework and you can't look at your text book this time! Which of the following best describes the flow of energy through an ecosystem?" Angelina asked.
She watched as Conrad closed his eyes resting his head back against the wall to think. He looked so calm and at peace, a feeling that Angelina has desperately sought out for in the last couple of months.
"Um, sunlight energy enters and transforms to chemical releasing into heat?" Conrad answered opening one of his eyes to look at Angelina.
"Correct! Think fast," Angelina beamed as she tossed a mini Reese's buttercup at Conrad.
Conrad laughed as it hit his forehead shaking his head. "You're supposed to give me a warning so I can open my mouth in preparation."
Angelina furrowed her eyebrows together. "But I did, I said think fast?"
The door to her room slammed closed as Victoria walked in removing her leather jacket and tossing it on her bed leaving her in a spaghetti strapped tank top. "Well, well, well, if it isn't the happy, not so happy, fake couple," she winked at them.
Conrad's eyes widen as he turned to look at Angelina. "Sorry, I had to tell her in case we acted as a couple around her. So she wouldn't be caught off guard."
"You told her it's fake?"
"Well, it is," Angelina tilted her head slightly and raised an eyebrow at Conrad. "We are a fake couple, Con."
"Right," Conrad answered clearing his throat.
"Yeah, key word there is fake, Connie," Conrad turned to glare at Victoria after hearing her snicker.
"Yes, fake. I can barely handle day to day responsibilities without having a melt down. The last thing on my mind is starting a whole new relationship," Angelina said as she subconsciously lifted her hand and began fidgeting with the flower pendant on her necklace Jeremiah gave her.
Conrad turned back to look at Angelina as his eyes landed on her chest where she was holding onto the necklace. Conrad rolled his eyes. "You know, I completely agree with you on that, Lina," Conrad paused looking down at his biology book. "Mom actually told me Jeremiah won homecoming king a few days ago and that he went with someone."
Angelina eyes slightly widen. She felt her whole body stiffen. She tried moving to show some kind of reaction but she couldn't. Her body froze still. She wanted to get off the bed and run, run to comfort. But she couldn't run, she couldn't move, because the thought of comfort was him. And she couldn't go to Jeremiah because he broke up with her and apparently now, was dating other people.
Angelina didn't want to bother Cristian. He was in the middle of a winning streak in his senior year of high school football. His focus was completely on that until January. Angelina knew she could go to him and he would drop everything to help her, but Angelina couldn't do that him and effect his chances of being scouted for a reason that doesn't seem worth it.
She couldn't talk to Conrad about it, he doesn't understand her feelings for Jeremiah and always dismisses them.
She couldn't even run home. There was no one there. Angelina never felt so alone. She felt tears begin to build in her eyes and suddenly felt movement in her body. It's as if the thought of tears brought a reaction to her. Angelina wasn't going to cry, her tears were only for meant for her dad.
