Golden Gate

Idli, Dosa

It was the second week of detention. I was still disgusted by this human being next to me(not even sure I could call him that) . But continued. I was picking up some trash when a bunch of guys came up to me and started calling me names. I was about to say something when Justin came up and said "Guys back off, leave her alone, and go get a life you useless pieces of shit." I admired that he did that but I felt like he was being a pick me. So of course my defensive self went "I don't need your help, thank you very much" pushed him and left.

He ran after me "Thank you, Justin, Your so cool Justin, Justin we should date!" it slipped out of his mouth. he covered his mouth and ran but I stopped him by throwing the dirty sponge I had in my hand "Hey, first off I speak for myself and second you hate me so mention dating me again and I will make sure nobody else does."

I walked off I went to Janitor Munnu (he was from India but then again so was our principal, and my chicken?) "wHaT dO yOu wAnT cHiLd?" he said in his very south Indian accent. It was like Bro was spitting out idli, and dosa. I said "Oh I need to just grab my phone" Walking into class, in the backbench Addie was making out with this pretty girl. I started clapping. They immediately stopped kissing and GODAMNIT IT WAS STACY. I started cheering even louder. Addie came over, hugged me, and said "Nobody can know about this Hailey I'm serious!". "Of course not" I replied I hugged Stacy and said "your lesbian?" She smiled and said "No I'm bi. but then again is shouldn't have to announce it, it's not like you announce to people that your straight!". She seemed defensive, scared, she had kissed a bunch of boys back home but a girl? well this was her first.

I hugged her and said, "Bitch your secret's safe with me". We all went out for ice - cream after that but this time I wasn't the secret third wheel anymore. They held hands. They blushed and me? well, I existed.

Watching them like each other like that. It was phenomenal. To have those butterflies in your stomach. To have someone hold you like that. Have someone care for you in a way nobody else will. Fuck, I wanted that. I wanted that more than anything right about now.

I started admiring Justin a little bit. It scared me but is stuck with it. How he stood up for me. Took me out for ice cream but then made me uncomfortable?

This guy came with pros and cons.
