You're my only one

Intro

"Ashleyyyyy!!!" a loud and excited voice called me from the other side of the school hallway. this voice is unmistakable: it's Kayla.

and yes, I'm Ashley, Ash for my friends, the girl that always sticks out with her. I'm an 18 year old Italian girl.

I have wavy, shoulder length, brown hair and the eyes of the same green of a leaf on a fresh spring. fresh if only I wasn't allergic to pollen.

I slowly turn my body around just to find Kayla in front of my face, smiling widely in happiness.

I'm not surprised, I'm used to this sight. she'll probably ask me to go out with her.

the girl in front of me is my childhood best friend. she has the same age as me. she has straight, long (fr her hair reaches her waist), dark blue hair, the same dark blue of a peaceful sea in a night with a clear sky.

her eyes are black and she's basically the opposite of me, but I still love her.

she's really popular at school, as I see her spending time with her many friends so much. I'm honestly happy that she's happy, but sometimes I wish I could have some more friends too.

she's an extrovert basically since the day she was born. she loves parties and the 99.99% of the times, she drags me into them, but I prefer books.

I love quiet places. they relax me

anyways, going back to my crazy story, she's now in front of me, jumping in excitement while smiling

"yes, Kayla?" I softly ask as I look at her, my lips gently curving into a smile as I'm happy to see her being so excited.

bet she's whether gonna tell me about a party, and drag me there, or she's gonna tell me about her umpteenth crush.

"Ash! you won't believe it! Jake asked me out on a date!" she loudly says, almost shouting it, which makes me flinch slightly

I can see she's clearly cheerful, but I gently tilt my head in curiosity, before speaking in a confused tone

"which... which Jake are we talking about...? Jake P. or... Jake from biology...?"

Istg this girl has so many "crushes". "crushes" because she'll probably fall in love with them but get tired of them the day after.

she fell in love with Jake from biology, or simply J, yesterday just because of his looks, is this what love is?

from what I heard, a crush is someone you love slightly, but Idk, I never fell in love... luckily

Kayla told me many stories about her friends, who had crushes, but none of them ended up well.

oh! there was one actually, but it ended up with a cheating and some drama.

anyways, Kayla grabs me by the shoulders firmly and shakes me, screaming in excitement, before yelling at me cheerfully

"Jake from biology!! that hottie! he's probably got 9 inches and I swear to God I'm willing to get on my knees for him!"

I swear I could've seen her mouth watering just at the thought of the boy. I gotta say that he really has a nice body, so yeah.

"...9 inches? as in... a ruler...?" I ask, not sure of what she's saying, but her lips curve into a smirk

"not a ruler... his ruler..." she says in a mischievous tone, before turning back to smiling and wiping her drool off of her lips. gross.

"I'm not underst-" I start, but she quickly interrupts me

"anyways! I need your help! you must help me! I don't know what to wear, how to style my hair, what to do, how to act! you have to help me!!!"

she desperately says as she clings to me, almost begging. and I can't say no, she looks so... desperate. I sigh

"fine... when is it...?" I quietly ask, but defeated, but I'm used to it. I can see her smiling widely and stops clinging to me the moment I say yes

"yay! Saturday at 3pm at the park! thank you!"

she says happily before quickly pecking my cheek and running away. I sigh again and start walking to my house.

great, it's Thursday, and I'll have to help my friend prepare for a date with a guy she doesnt even know, but is attracted to him physically.

I really wanted to spend my weekend reading that new fantasy book I bought tho. it really has a nice story.

As I reach my apartment at 3 pm, I enter and close my door behind (forgot to say that I live alone, mom gave me some money but now I have to do things on my own).

I quickly have lunch and immediately go to my room to start my homework.

I finish at 7 pm, and then I start messaging with Kayla, as I saw she spammed me messages about her infinite crushes, mostly of J, while I was studying.

I chat with her until 8 pm, when I decide to cook myself dinner.

when I'm done eating, I quickly have a shower, put my pajama on, do my skin care, and let myself drop on my cozy bed, feeling tired because of the long day.

it doesn't take a while for me to fall asleep, as snores slowly start echoing through my room and I start falling into the world of dreams
