AILAINA
I arrive at home half past eleven making it in time before my midnight curfew. Those few hours weren't as horrendous as I thought it would be. We stopped by the donut shop after Luke picked me up then we went to the park and walked around. He was hard to talk to, however. He could be very sarcastic and rude, but sometimes he'd ask me questions to keep me talking so I won't. He probably wasn't listening half the time, but whatever. As long as I survived. It was only until the ride home we started talking about Calum and the project situation. I told him how I felt about it and how much the grade means to Calum and I guess Luke seemed to understand because he didn't give me any snarky remarks in return.
Bzzzt! Bzzzt!
I slip my phone out of my pocket. New text message.
Jack: !!! PARTY AT MY PLACE ON SUNDAY !!! 9:00 p.m. until the sun comes up !!! BE THERE OR BE SQUARE !!! U DONT WANNA MISS OUT !!!
I close the app and lock my phone.
Bzzzt! Bzzzt!
Another text message. It's from Luke.
Luke: you were surprisingly talkative with someone you don't like
Me: I don't dislike you, I just want you to be nice to my friend
Luke: your friend doesn't care enough about me being myself around him to tell me off
Luke: so why do you?
Me: I care about him
Luke: if it was really killing him, I'm sure he'd say something. He has a mouth.
Me: He's not the type to speak up about things
Me: But trust me, he doesn't like your habits
Luke: give me a person who does
Luke: It's not news to me, honey
Luke: I know what people think about me.
Luke: after all, tattoos and a piercing and a cigarette in my mouth must mean i'm a bad person, right?
Me: Not necessarily
Luke: then stop acting like it
He's got me there. I guess I can't really say anything until I give him a shot right? Ugh, but the thing is I don't want to. Yeah, maybe he's not that bad of a guy... Maybe... Somewhere... Deep, deep, deep down. But I don't know. Oh well, it's late and I'm tired. I'm just going to wash up and get some rest.
