As we walked into StarBucks, the voices of people, slurping of cups, tapping of computer keys, and the dings of coffee machines ran through my ears. The smell of coffee beans lingered into my nose.
The cool air pushed its self onto my face.
Jack and I waited in line for about 5 minutes.
God he was so perfect. He's hair was just over his bright green eyes, and was really tall. He wasn't to skinny and wasn't to muscular, leaving him the perfect shape. His skin was pale like mine, but just a shade tanner. He had a black lip piercing and jet black hair.
"Ma'am?" I heard the lady at the register say.
"Oh, what?" I said snapping back into reality. "What did you want?" She said in an impatient voice.
"Uh, just a Grande Double Chocolate Chip Frappe." I said looking down.
Jack lead me to a small table in the corner of the store. He pulled a chair out for me. I smiled, "Thank you."
"No problem." He said as he sat. "So, Fluorescent, what do you like to do?"
It took me a minute to answer him. "Oh, um, I dont know... I like to listen to music, and eat food. When I actually eat." I mumbled the last part.
"I'm sorry, what was that last part?" He said in concern. " I said that I like to eat food, whenever I'm hungry."
"Oh, cool." He looked suspicious. "Well what about you, Jack Spicer?" I said moving my fingers around. "I like listening to music and eating food too. I also like Video Games." "Oh shoot! I forgot that one, I LOVE video games!" I said almost shouting.
"Here are your drinks." The lady said winking at Jack. He blushed and took a sip of his coffee. I dont know why, but when she winked at him a wave of anger rolled over me. It's not like we're dating or anything, but I just got really mad.
After about an hour of talking and drinking coffee, I headed home.
"Hey! Essy! Wait!" I heard Jack yell as he ran to me. "Essy? Really?" " Haha yeah, it's your nickname. Anyways can I have your number? So I can like text you... For science reasons..."
"Haha sure." I said with a smile.
I put my number into his phone. "Well, that was fun." He said looking down at me. "Yeah, it was. Well, I better get going, my sister will freak out if I'm not home by... Oh Shit! It's already 5:00! I got to go, I'll text you later... Bye. "
Before I left I gave Jack a quick peck on the cheek.
As I walked away I heard him whisper, "Bye."I walked into my house and sat at the table. There was a small note stuck to the wood. It read,
Fluorescent,
Clean up the house, mom and dad aren't gonna be back till like 12:00 so I'm inviting a "few" people over. Don't embarrass me. Clean the house and stay in your demonic room!Love Lily. xoxo
I sighed. "Typical." I began to pick up trash around the house, sweep the floors, do the dishes, and clean every single room in the house. This wasn't very hard because I did it all the time.
While I was cleaning Lily's room I found 4 condoms tucked under her bright pink bed.
"Do it!" The voices in my head screamed. "Do it!" I know what they wanted me to do. I found a needle on her dresser.
I held a condom in one hand and the needle in the other. "This could ruin her life!" I thought.
Without thinking I poked a tiny hole in the small blue package. "Oh shit." I said.
I ran into my room and put the small punctured package in my dresser, hoping Lily wouldn't find it.
I heard giggles and footsteps coming from down stairs. I sighed and went to the living room.
"FLUORESCENT!? Come make me and my friends some snacks!" Lily yelled. I walked into the kitchen and brought out soda, chips, dip, and tiny sandwiches.
"Thank you Fluor." Lily said with and extremely fake smile. "No problem." I said in a blank tone."Wow! Is your house always this clean?" One girl asked. Lily paused and looked over to me. "Oh, it's always like this." Lily said nervously looking around. Lies, lies, lies. I said to myself. Shes the main reason why this place is normally a pit!
I rolled my eyes and walked up to my room.
After 4 hours of hearing outrageous laughs and glass breaking, Lily's friends left. I heard her walk up the stairs into her room.
By this time I was blasting my music. Lily absolutely hated my kind of music because it wasn't in the top 50 pop charts. I just think all of those songs are crap!
I heard Lily yell my name from her room. I paused the blaring music and went to her room.
"Fluorescent, why are one of my condoms missing?!"
I stood in shock.
"I... Um... Needed it." I said looking to the floor. "You what? Omg you got yourself some dick!" She screamed punching my arm.
"Shut up Lily!" I said pushing her away. "Well at least ask first! Did you see touch anything else?"
I shook my head and went back to my room.*Picture of Lily on top*
