Memories

Susanna Martinez

'The 100' played on Felix's TV, his arm around me as we laid in his bed, eating the pizza we made last night. It wasn't the best though, as we got a little bit distracted.. But it didn't matter, as long as we made it together!

I looked to my side and he was still asleep, small snores escaping his mouth. I smiled, seeing his vulnerableness. He acted so different around me than he does with others, it's adorable. I turned back and grabbed my phone, checking the time.

'8:36' it read. I put it back on the nightstand and gently slipped out of Felix's grip, sitting on the edge of the bed. I'll send him a message later, for now, I gotta get home soon before my mom starts asking weird questions about us.

I put on my shoes and jacket, grabbing all my items and making my way out of his house.

I plugged in my earbuds to my phone and played some music, texting my friends.

"Fort" Emilio texted a couple of minutes before which made me scoff. He's really playing at this time?

"Should Susan make it official?" I sent, knowingly they would understand right away.

A couple of minutes into walking, my phone rang, signifying that someone replied.

"SUSY IT WAS ONLY LIKE 3 DAYS" Ana replied, which must've woken the others up because everyone soon became active.

"The d cannot be that good😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭" Gisselle added, which made me giggle out loud. I questioned her message.

"YES OR NO" I replied.

"FINALLY TOOK U LOMG ENOUGH" Liza sent right after.

I took all of it as a 'yes' since everyone started babbling about how I was finally with Felix and accusing me of having intercourse with him, which did NOT happen.

I soon made it home and I grabbed my keys, unlocking the door and immediately running upstairs to my bedroom.

As soon as I walked through the door I jumped in my bed, letting out a small sigh. I pulled my phone back out and begin storytelling them everything that had happened this night.

"susan make it official in his mom's restaurant" Ana sent, to which everyone quickly agreed.

"maybeee but i need HIM to ask me on the date hes the man for a reason 🙄" I replied.

"Bro just ask him" Liza added but I just rolled my eyes and put my phone down to charge, having everything planned now to make us official.

It was the week of Valentine's Day and I wanted to make things official with Susanna on Valentine's. I knew she liked me back but I wanted to make the first move, you know—since I'm the man and all. I thought about my mom's restaurant and how my mom would be working on Valentines. So it would be the perfect place and day to make her my girlfriend.

I fixed my shirt collar and sprayed a few drops of my Acqua Di Gío onto my neck and wrists. I took one last look in the mirror, patted my hair and dashed for the front door. I walked to school today and greeted my friends once I arrived, the usual. A few minutes passed by until I saw Susanna walk into campus and over to her friend group. I decided it was my moment to go steal her away and tell her about my Valentines plans. I walked over to Susanna and grabbed her hands.

"Hey Susanna. You got any plans for tonight?" I ask, intertwining our fingers.

She looks up at me, raising an eyebrow. "No. You got any?" She answers.

"Yeah, I wanna take out this girl to dinner at a nice restaurant tonight." I say.

"Oh yeah? Who's the lucky girl?" She says, playing along.

I raise my index finger which is intertwined with hers and point it at her. She raises her eyebrows, giggling.

"So, remember the restaurant I told you my mom works at? I thought we could go check it out tonight." I say, swinging her arms.

"Of course! What's on the menu though?" She asks.

"A bunch of Italian food." I reply.

"Yum!" She says as the bell rings.

I keep my new routine of walking Susanna to class going and drop her off at Ms. Eggfreid's door. We say our goodbyes and I head to my class.

The day is over quickly and it's soon time for me to make Susanna my girlfriend. I freshen myself up and head to the convenience store to buy Susanna some flowers.

I walk into the store and make my way towards the flower section. I carefully analyze the bouquets of flowers displayed and pick some white roses. I think she's mentioned to me before that they're her favorite flowers.

I pay for the flowers and walk out of the store and back to my car. I pressed the unlock button on my keys and was about to step inside until my legs couldn't hold my weight up anymore, and I crashed onto the floor.

                               Susanna Martinez

I walked into the restaurant, immediately greeted by Felix's mother.

"Hello sweetie, eres la Susanna?" She asked as she admired my outfit. I wore a sparkly pink shirt and some cute flared jeans with a bow in my hair to match my shirt.

"Yes, is Felix here?" I asked. As soon as I confirmed who I was, she pulled me into a hug, kissing me on the cheek.

"He's not here yet, he wanted to dress up nicely and make it a surprise." She said with a small wink.

"Talk to you later sweetie, I need to head back to the kitchen!" She said, giving me a small wave and smile before heading to the back.

I eyed around the restaurant, finding a nice corner in the restaurant that had a nice view of the outside. I walked over to it and took a seat, using my phone to pass by the time. I scrolled.

Scrolled.

Scrolled..

And just kept scrolling.

I checked the time and thirty minutes had already passed by.

"Hello ma'am are you waiting for someone or would you like to start an order?" A waiter came up to me.

"I'm waiting, thank you." I replied, the waiter nodding and leaving me to the next table.

'Where the hell was Felix?' I thought to myself, sending him a message.

"Everything alright?" I sent, the message quickly going to delivered.

I sighed, waiting for a reply.

Time only continued passing, it was already 8! My concern only grew, thinking about all the things that could've possibly happened to Felix.

"He still isn't here?" Felix's mom passed by my table, questioning me.

"No, he was supposed to be here an hour ago." I replied.

"That's weird... I'll call him." His mom said, walking back to the kitchen.

I sighed, my leg shaking underneath the table. Maybe it was all just a lie and he never changed.
