I fall on my bed dramatically and take shield under my duvets. It was a long day, a very long one indeed.
So this is how it went all down the drain,
After the bell loudly signaled the end of algebra I practically ran to my locker and stuffed my books. I even managed to fit my bag in there, I really don't need anything, right?
I waited for Daniel for an entire twenty five minutes in the parking lot like a hobo. And as you might have guessed I don't have a car so standing there outside his car like I have no house and sleep on the streets everyday got my blood boiling!
When finally he came outside, guilt was written all over his face. I couldn't be angry, I mean it's okay it was just one time. One guilty look was all it took to win me over, that's how pathetic I am.
"I am so sorry baby" he said apologetically
I sighed dramatically before saying, "it's okay." He gave me a chaste kiss making me melt on the spot. It was quick but it was everything.
"Also, it's kind of a double date" he explained.
"What?" I asked in disbelief. I thought this was some way we could rekindle our old love.
"Do you mind?" he asked gently with a solemn expression. Now I couldn't refuse without looking like a bitch so I said, "Yeah it's fine"
We waited for another five minutes before James, one of the athletes from the school team came along with a slutty cheerleader dangling around him. She shoved James towards Daniel and went on the other side of the car to check her reflection in the mirror. James greeted Daniel with a bro-hug or whatever they do and just smiled politely at me. I knew James before, he was one of Daniel's close friends from the school team. But unlike Daniel he was a major douche when it came to girls. Most of the guys in the school team are major playboys. Pretty stereotypical if you ask me.
The girl with James came back after retouching her makeup and adjusting her school uniform. She folded her skirt to an extent where it barely covered her and opened the first two buttons of her already suffocatingly tight blouse. I basically wanted to go to her and question her sanity.
We got in Daniel's car and I sat in the passenger seat. After a few minutes we decided to head out to this restaurant near the beach which served the best nachos in town. I protested since we had already had lunch but after everyone's disagreement to my opinion we settled to go to the restaurant.
The ride was awkward as Daniel tried to make small conversations but couldn't find a common ground for all of us. Madison ,who I learnt was the slut dangling around James' arms, wanted to talk about nothing but magazines and makeup. Daniel and James talked about the upcoming game and knowing nothing about sports I just tuned everyone out as I looked outside the window.When we reached the restaurant I took a seat with Daniel across from Madison and James. We took a table outside the restaurant letting the occasional breeze send chills down our bodies. A huge yellow umbrella shielded us from the afternoon sun.
The set up was the best part and that was it sadly, because the moment our food arrived Daniel got a call which he had to apparently urgently answer. He got up from his place to get some privacy and attended the call.
Madison and James didn't even touch their food because who needs food when you have each other. Note the sarcasm. They just went on fervently kissing right in front of my innocent eyes like they were fucking shooting the next Fifty Shades of Grey.
I looked down at my food in discomfort and refused to touch it convincing myself that I had enough at lunch. You could still hear their disgusting voices trying to eat each others' faces up. Now I thought I could listen to music on my phone to let time fly but guess what I forgot?
