I stepped off the bus and ran after Jazmyne. I couldn't let her leave just yet "JAZ!! GET YOUR ASS OVER HERE!" But yelling was useless. The child had earbuds in and all the way up. I grabbed her arm and spun her around and she let out a small yelp. She took out her earnings and frowned.
"What Kandi?" She asked as if I hadn't been screaming her name across the parking lot. She had Ky's phone, which he had let me borrow for the time being, because I didn't have one if my own, and I wanted it still. I wanted to text him. Chase. He was suspended all week for fighting Cris. I wouldn't see him until after Winter break and I missed him. Chase was my best guy friend and had been for a while. But not only that, but he was my first love. And he knew it too. We talked about it often and we flirted. A lot.
"Please please PLEASE can I have Ky's phone back? Just for the break? I promise he will get it back soon. Just, maybe not today." She looked at me funny and asked me why I wanted it so badly. I looked at her and smiled sheepishly. "Chase. He's been suspended and you know I miss him" She sighed.
"Fine. But if Ky hates me this break, it's on you." I squealed and hugged her. She pushed me off her after giving me a brief hug and handed me the red cased, IPhone. She turned on her heel and walked through the gate after saying bye. I happily walked home after picking up my bag off the ground.
When I got home, I sat my bag on the chair sitting against the post in out house and let Lucy out. I turned on Pandora and connected it to the speaker. Songs by Adele and Bruno Mars rang throughout the house and I opened up kik. I saw his kik username. It had changed. It was Kandi Kane and there was my picture as his kik pic. I squealed and fell onto my bed. Flipping onto my stomach, I opened our chat and began typing.
Me: Hi.....
Chase: Hey :)
Me: wyd?
Chase: Nm. Texting you. Hbu?
Me: lol. Pretty much the same. Just got home. Listening to Bruno Mars. <3
Chase: Eww. Bad music.
Me: Good music.
Chase: whatever. So listen. We need to talk.
Me: About?
Chase: Us
Me: what about us???
Chase: I want to try the just friends thing again.
I froze. I had no way to respond. I mean, we had done this before, but it hadn't lasted. To much "sexual tension." But I had a feeling this would be final.
Me: oh
Chase: I'm sorry. But I think we should it's just...
Us just being friends seems to work out better. It seems
easier that way.
It was about 9:30 by this time and I knew that we were never going to happen. I opened snapchat and snapped Cris. I had to get over Chase. He wasn't healthy for me. He is my drug.
