what are we?

Layla's date

~Cuttin' me open, then healin' me fine- Taylor swift~

It was now friday, Layla's big day.

It's 4:16pm and Eric picks her up at 5pm.

I helped her with her makeup, the only problem left is her clothes.

She still had no idea what to wear, even though i probably showed her 10 different outfits.

"WAIT! I THINK I GOT IT! THATS GOOD!" She suddenly shouts.

I flinch a little by her sudden shouting and look at the outfit that she's talking about.

It was a short red dress with a split. It went up till her lower thighs and she looked stunning. She put on a leather jacket too and i handed her some gold jewelry.

I smiled at her. ,,You look gorgeous. You know you remind me of the song gorgeous by taylor swift" I say winking at her.

,,Ugh i love you! Wait isn't that the song that goes like "you're so gorgeous it hurts?" She asks me singing like a dying grandpa.

,,Yeah, but it fits so well to you!" I grin and she does too.

,,But what bag am i gonna wear?"
And now she's panicking again!

I look around her room to find the perfect bag to go with the outfit.
It was a small black bag wich is still big enough for her makeup, purse and phone.

She thanks me and puts her things in it.

All off a sudden we heard honking and Layla got a text from Eric saying he's here.

She automatically screams then puts her hand on her mouth.

I let out a laugh. She's adorable.

,,Ookay bye gottagoseeyou!" Jeez i hope she doesn't speak so fast on the date.

I wait for about ten minutes until i go out of her house.

I walk to the bus station and see that the next bus comes in 10 minutes.
Great just great.

I let out a small sigh and put my headphones on. Suprisingly there aren't lots of people at the bus station, usually it's so crowded here.

My ears get blessed when 'invisible string' by Taylor swift starts playing.

I look around to see about 5 people waiting.
Wait.

One of them looks really similiar to him. No, No it can't be him, right?

I look away from him for a few seconds but can't help it and look back at him.

No. No that's not him.

I keep convincing myself that that guy is not him.

I try to stop thinking about it and the second i look up i see the bus.

I step inside and he also steps inside

Goddammit can't he just turn around i wanna see his face!

I can see a little of his side profile and convince myself it's not him.

I finally stop thinking about it and lean my head on the window, listening the folklore album masterpieces

After about 15 minutes i get home and run up to my room just to hear my stomach growling.

I only ate a granola bar today. I did good, right?

I can eat, it's fine.

It's fine. It's fine. It's fine. These words keep repeating in my head and i slowly go downstairs to the kitchen.

I think my mother is either sleeping or at work because i don't see her anywhere.

Better for me i guess.

I look inside the fridge but everything just has too much calories. I close the fridge and keep looking around. I see an apple.

Good enough.

I take it, wash it and eat it.

Obviously, i was still hungry after, but i'll wait an hour or two. Then i can eat again.

Where even is my brother and my father and my mother?

I sigh and lay down on my bed and get a notification from 'manwhore'. Nicholas? Why is he texting me?

I click on it. 'Hey r u free today, we still have to do the project until next friday.'

Ugh the dumb dumb project! I forgot about it!

I roll my eyes and close my ipad since i was about to watch gilmore girls but i guess i can't anymore.

'Yeah i am.' I answer.

'Alr do you wanna come to mine or should i go to yours?'

'I don't really care.' I mean i kind of do because if Mateo would see US together, he would think something else.

'K i'm coming rn. I really don't wanna see your ugly ass but i guess i have to 💔'

'I don't wanna see your manwhore self neither so shut it.'

After about 4 mins i hear the bell ringing.
I go down and open the door. Obviously, it was Nicholas. He was wearing grey sweatpants with a matching hoodie to it.

,,Hey fathead what's up!" i roll my eyes at his words and shut the door after he came inside. I lead him to my room and get some pens out.

,,Dang i haven't been inside this room since like 5 years." Yeah, for a reason dumbass.

,,Yeah and i'm happy about that." i give him an obvious fake smile and he mocks me.

I go get another chair and pull it to my desk as Nick gets his stuff out.

******

,,Okay, thats it. I can't take this anymore i need a break!" Nick says standing up.

I roll my eyes. ,,It's been an hour. ONE HOUR. God you rich popular kids can't handle doing work do you?"

,,Yes, we can't. Because usually, people do it for us. But YOU are an annoying ass brat who insists on dragging me into this stuff."

,,Oh Nick you're crazy. WE were paired TOGETHER for this project. That means that we BOTH have to do work." I scrunch my nose at his dumbness.

,,Okay okay now lets eat something i'm starving."

He goes downstairs and immediately goes into the kitchen. Our house is basically his house. He's here at least 4 times a week because of my brother.

I go down with him to drink some water.

I watch as nick picks out cereal and fills it into a bowl. After he finished putting his cereal in his bowl i go up to him and get my own bowl.

We didn't do much after. We finished our cereal, started screaming at each other foe the dumbest reasons while doing the project and about 30 minutes ago he left.

But seriously, he says that the vampire diaries is a dumb show that makes no sense at all. He is crazy. I mean how could you say something like that! The vampire diaries makes much sense and is one of the best shows of all time! But he's talking while his favourite show is probably the rookie.

It was 2am now, my brother already got home a few hours ago, but my parents.. Who knows where they are right now. I decided it's finally time to go to sleep and close my eyes.
