Today I have nothing special to do,so I decided to go for a jog, came back then took a bath then ate my breakfast.
After hours of me reading a novel I decided to go for a swim thinking about my life and how sad it is. After a few stokes I decided to go and sit on the water pool chair just thinking about where my life is going and how I can't wait to be done with this sixth school and go to university, maybe my life will be far better there. 

At roundhay my life is now better because of Ava. She likes me a lot and have accepted me in her group when Gabrielle dumped me when I wasn't coming to school.  Although Ava is my friend, I can't really say her friends are my friends too especially Charlotte and Emma.  Me and Emma just talk there and there but I can feel that she doesn't like me but have no choice but to accept me. Then Charlotte follows Emma and everything that she does hence Charlotte doesn't like me too. Then Mia, she is really nice. I don't feel comfortable in that group but I have no choice because if I don't sit with them at lunch I will have to sit alone which I don't want.
I'm the quiet one in the group to the extent that I can even zone out whilst we are all sitting together, maybe it's because our things don't really match.

Bryson is another problem which is coming into my life and I have to avoid that. Then Lennox he is a nice guy and I really feel comfortable with him.

Today it's not that hot, so I decided to wear black biker shorts, an oversized cream sweater and cream sneakers too.

"Hey Lenn" I greeted Lennox taking a sit next to him.
"It looks like someone is in a good mood today" he stated laughing
"Why not,  it's a great morning not too hot and not too cold as well soo yeah I guess that made my mood to be good"
"Hmmmm I see, I will pray for the weather to be always like this then" he said laughing
"Me too" I started laughing too
"Yeah sure,  it also made you to come and sit here straight even though Bryson is not here yet, don't you want to argue with him today?"
"Not Today or ever again, because its useless.  I don't want to sit at the back anymore."
"I see, okay I understand that. Do you know you arguing with Bryson all the time caused some rumours to spread in this class."
"Oh my Goodness what rumours now?" I asked Lennox shocked

And when Lennox was about to answer Bryson walked into the classroom, causing Lenn to shut up.
"Hey bro" Bryson greeted Lennox
"Wassup Bryson" Lenn replied standing up to do their bro handshake. Then I just rolled my eyes and Bryson just looked at me.

After hrs of learning lunch time finally came and today I decided to just stay in class.
"Mila aren't you going out today?"
"Nahh Lenn I'm just gonna be in here reading a novel"
"Ow okay,"
After 10 minutes Lennox came back with 2 trays of food
"Why are you back soo early lunch is not over yet"
"I know, I thought I could keep you company and you can tell me what's going on in that lil mind of yours" he said taking a sit beside me.
"Okay then."
"Here,take this" he said giving me a tray with French fries, burger and a strawberry milkshake.

We started talking about our weekends and how it was whilst eating. He how he spend his weekend with Bryson and from what he said they really are best friends.
"You done eating already," I said looking at his tray
"Yup, I'm a man after all" he said laughing
"Yeahhh"
"So tell me what's bothering you" he asked
"Nothing really, you tell me what you meant by me fighting with Bryson has caused some rumours"
"Oh about that, so Bryson likes ivy and he even told her then ivy told izzy and Ella then that story started spreading about how Ivy rejected him"
"Soooo, how does that concern me" I asked him
"Well, people thought that he was going to keep on trying since ivy is pretty but he didn't and they are saying it's all because of you, because since you came back he is now focusing on you."
"What the Hell I Don't even talk to the guy and how is he focusing on me now what's wrong with these girls"
"The fact that you guys have been fighting over a sit has made izzy's group to think that you want his attention and you are hitting on him"
"Whatttt!"
"Yeahh, that's what they think worse you came back looking all pretty and have kinda changed "
"OMG, am I not allowed to change to for myself and have some self care?"
"You are mila, don't listen to what they say okay."
"Okay Lenn, thank you for telling me this"
"That's what I'm here for"
"Ohhhh, so are you agreeing to be my gossip buddy"
"What, noo, those stuff are for ladies not guys" he said laughing
"Okay then, you just rejected me" I said in a fake sad tone.
"Noo it's not like that"
"Okay then" I said laughing
"So champ, tell me what's going on you were a bit cheerful in the morning today but I could see that there was something else behind that"
"So I have a new nickname now" I asked him laughing
"Yes" he replied laughing as well
"You really are bad at nicknames Lennox"
"Ouch why are you being soo rude" he pretended to be hurt
"Sorry,  anyways what do you mean by I don't look okay?"
"I don't know you tell me, I feel like somewhere somehow you are sad"
"Honestly I feel like I don't have friends, I feel soo lonely. Some other teens will be out there enjoying their lives then there is me just books and does nothing. I actually hate school."
"What happened to Ava and here friends?"
"I don't really feel welcomed in their group. Ofcourse Ava  and Mia likes me but Charlotte and Emma doesn't."
"I understand you champ, just know that I'm here okay. I won't mind staying with you at lunch okay."
"Okay sure. I just don't want some other girl who have a crush on you to also hate me for no reason"
"Hmm, we shall see."
"So these girls thinks that I'm trying to take Bryson, I can't believe it"
Lennox then started laughing
"Why are you laughing?"
"I told you to forget about them, be Happy that someone is jealous of you"
"Uhhhhh, okay then. But I wonder,  why did ivy rejected him if she was going to get jealous when he moves on"
"I don't know maybe she wanted him to try harder, which he wanted to do until you came in the picture"
"What?! What do you mean?"
"You kept him busy the whole of last week to the extent that he forgot about ivy." Lennox said laughing
"It means that he never liked her then, if he forgot her within a day after she rejected him" I stated
"Ummmm yeahhh, trueee" Lennox said
Then we both started laughing and that time everyone then came back into the class. They just looked at me and Lennox with those suspicious looks.

"Ummm champ,I'm going to take these trays back to the cafeteria" Lennox said getting up
"Okay sure"

As soon as Lennox went out, ava came running to me, taking Lennox's sit
"Did you just spent the whole lunch in here talking to Lennox?" She asked
"Yeahh, why?"
"Whatttt girllll, are you two a thing now?"
"What noo, we were just talking that's all, whilst I was finishing my assignment which is due today, that's why I couldn't come out" I lied
"I see oky then"
"Yeah you can now go back your sit now" I gave her a fake smile
"Okay" she eyed me suspiciously

I then took out my ipad to continue reading my novel but someone came from no where and took my ipad from my hands. I was surprised when I looked up to see that it was Bryson. 
"Bro can I have my ipad back" I said as calmly as I could
"I'm bored right now so I'm going to take this, maybe they are some interesting stuff in there " he replied with a bored tone
I was about to argue with him when I thought about what Lennox said.
"Okay  then take it "
"Huh? Are you sure? He asked surprised
"Yes Mr Bryson take and leave me alone already"
"I'm not going I'm sitting here" he said sitting next to me"
"Uh okay then" I said taking my stuff so that I can go to the library
"Where are you going"
"That's non of your business"
"If you don't tell me I'm going to follow you"
"Uhhh, I'm going to the library to study "
"Okay I'm coming with you." He said getting ready to get up
"No dude. What's wrong with you"
"Nothing is wrong with me. But if you are going to the library I'm coming with."
"Okay then, you can go, I'm no longer going." I said sitting down
"Oh, me too I'm no longer going as well" he said taking a sit.
"Oh my God this guy is getting on my nerves"
