Blonde & Brunette

Chapter 42: Always a pleasure to make deals with you.

Roxy's pov:

Slamming Ron's locker with my palm, he jumped in surprise before glaring at me which made me smirk.

I wish his hand was cut because of that action.

What kind of violence thoughts you want to insert in my head, are you crazy?

Oh come on, even the most angelic minds has devilish thoughts, so shut it.

Keep your opinions to yourself.

That's exactly what i'm doing, god you never fail to surprise me with your dumbness.

I leaned against the locker with my side as i got a curious look from Ron who was holding a huge psychology book in his hand. "So? You're in or not?" He asked with a low voice so no one in the crowded hallway can hear us.

After he left yesterday, i spent my whole time thinking about this, at first it seemed to me as a bad idea, it's none of my business after all and i've learned the hard way that i shouldn't put my nose in other peoples problems, so i decided that i'm staying out of it, i don't want to get into any problems or make Demi's life more complicated, because last time i checked, romance, love, secret crushes and liking people, does nothing but give you a major headache, a screwed up mind, a heart ache and of course a bunch of weird fuzzy feelings. I'm talking by experience.

Speaking of which, i couldn't help but feel sad and disappointed when i downed the reason why to Ron came to my house, he didn't do it to apologise, explain his actions or at least try to win our friendship back, he did it just to help his student and be a good mentor.

And there i was thinking he's trying to make things right again, because no matter what he does i will always forgive him, it's just the way things are, nonetheless, this time i won't, i won't forgive him until he gives me a logical explanation to why he was ignoring my existence, it's my right to know.

Anyways, back to the main subject, as i said, after a lot of thinking i thought it would be better to let Demi and Seth figure things out by themselves, however, i changed my mind after asking Demi if she had a crush on Seth, saying that i saw how she looked at him in the restaurant and the way she blushed. Like Ron expected, she has a huge crush on him, but she didn't have the balls to tell him, which i don't blame her for because i'm in the same situation, but again, my situation is a little more complicated than hers, i do have two crushes and just by thinking about it, my head start pounding.

So after that heart to heart conversation with Demi, i decided to help those kiddos young love grow up and blossom, it seems they needed the help anyway.

That's how i found myself saying. "I'm in, let's shoot some cupid's arrows at those two." I faked shooting an arrow with my imaginary bow.

Fist pumping the air, Ron grinned in victory as a "yes!" Escaped his lips.

"Although this won't change the fact that i'm mad at you, get it?" I narrowed my eyes at him and right away his loup sided smile faltered before he nodded.

With that the both of us went silent, it felt as if we were frozen and the world is moving, so to ease the awkwardness i was about to leave, nonetheless Max joined us, and the tension in the air disappeared.

"Hey guys!" Max grinned at the both of us as he adjusted his glasses with his left hand while he held the strap of the backpack on his shoulder.

He was wearing a dark blue plain shirt on top of it a grey sweater, a black pair of jeans, dark blue beanie and converse. I see he's still going for the 'hipster-y' look, i'm wondering if that worked on girls, because it definitely made me gawk at how cute he looked.
