Anomalous Lovers.

That Name.

-Amira's outfit-

On the car ride home I could tell Amyra seemed slightly distracted, while I complained about my day. I stared at her for a moment. "Anyway..What's going on with you?" I asked. We hadn't really been speaking like we used to. I guess it's our way of ignoring what's happening at home. "There's this boy I-" my phone rang and interrupted our conversation. It was Dad. I answered it. "Yes?" I asked. "I won't be home until early this morning, alright?" I sighed. "Alright." I replied. I hung up after saying goodbye. Dad had been working a lot lately at his new factory job. At least it's paying the bills. "What were you saying?" I asked Myra, but she just turned the stereo up. "Well damn." I muttered. Her attitude has been so unneeded lately.

I was watching tv, when suddenly there was a banging sound from outside. I got creeped out, but ignored it. Until it happened again. I sat up and looked out from my curtain. I saw a person staring back at me and nearly had a panic attack until I saw that it was just Scorpio. I opened the window and he climbed in, thinking it was funny. "What do you want?" I snapped. He seemed taken back, but redeemed himself. "Well I thought you would be at the park tonight, but you never showed so.." I stared at him blankly. "But anyways, I realized I didn't have your number. So I'm going to need it." He smiled. I rolled my eyes. "I don't think that your girlfriend would like that." I told him. He chuckled. "I'm single." He said. "That's not what Ally said." He sighed. "This again? She's not my girl, trust me. She's not really my type. Well I don't really have a type, but..she's not mine, okay?" I stared at him. "You should tell her that." I said. "I've tried, but I don't know. I'll talk to her about it tonight." He assured me. "What did you want?" I asked, I was still upset. "What can I do to let you know that I don't want that girl?" He asked. I shrugged. "It doesn't matter to me. That's your love life." I replied. "What if I took you on a date? Tomorrow, after school." I was completely taken back. "Uh-" "Great. I'll come get you around 4:30 tomorrow." He smirked. "Where would we go?" I asked. "Don't worry. You'll see. Don't wear anything fancy." I sighed. "I'll take that as a yes. By the way, I'll be expecting your number tomorrow morning at school." He headed back toward the window. "You could just take the front door." I told him. He nodded and we both laughed. I showed him to the door. "Do you live around here or something?" I asked. "Yeah, I live right across the street from the park." He said. That makes sense. "Well..good night." I said. "Good night." He said, before leaving.

I was too excited about the date. I just made sure I didn't show it. Cynthia wanted to come over to my house after school, so it was just the two of us while Amyra was out with a friend. Cyn came over a lot to avoid family problems, or just to chill. Which I didn't mind, especially today. I had no idea what to wear.

Side note: By the way, I did get my subway and blizzard😏

After a whole hour searching for something to wear, I decided on a romper, which was Cynthia's choice. I only had 30 minutes to do my hair now, so I just put it in a messy donut bun and wore only eye liner and mascara. I didn't want to go all out. I then chose a pair of combat boots and a necklace. I was glad to get Cynthia's approval, cause I was still nervous.

"Why are you so quiet today?" He asked, as I sat quietly in the passenger's seat. I shrugged and smiled. He sighed. "Is this cause I won't tell you where we're going?" He was right. He sighed. "It's to a place I used to go, growing up." He hinted. I still wouldn't speak. "You look very beautiful...even when you're being petty." He smirked. "Thank you." I replied. "Oh you're speaking now?" He asked. "Just tell me where." I said. "Does it really matter?" He asked. "Ugh whatever." I dismissed the conversation. I stared at him and he looked good too. "You look nice." I complimented. "Thanks." He smiled.
