Love is the Cure

8.

I woke up to Amelia standing over me. Jolting up to a sitting position I immediately get dizzy and fall back on my pillow. "Jesus Amelia!"

"Sorry..." She mumbled awkwardly "you didn't answer the door and I panicked thinking something was wrong and then I was trying to debate whether to wake you or not."

"It's fine Amelia. I'm fine you can go home now."

"Alright" she didn't sound too sure. "Next time someone comes to check on you it'll be Amber because I have to work."

"NO! That's okay really."

(Oh yeah. I forgot to mention that Amelia {my neighbor} is also Ambers step mom so yes... Amber is my neighbor.)

"Okay... Have a good night." She left my room and I waited to hear the front door close.

Amber isn't my direct neighbor there's two houses between mine and hers but it's still pretty darn close. I don't know how I've failed to mention that before but hey you know now.

Switching on my play station and going to Netflix I turned on the movie The Amazing Spider-Man.

Rolling over I spotted my phone and picked it up. No messages from Amber so I texted her back, she should be out of school now it's 3:30, unless she has cheer practice.

Hey

Hey, sorry I didn't message you I was busy. ~A

No need to apologize. How was the rest of school?

Alright I guess. ~A

Want to talk about it?

I don't know... ~A

Don't feel like you have to.

It just... Ryan and I broke up, I broke up with him so I shouldn't be angry when I see him with my best friend right? ~A

Just warning you I'm not good with this stuff but you did date him for three years so that's understandable and he shouldn't have gone for your best friend, I mean isn't that girl code?

Yeah...~A

No offense but why the hell are you friend with someone like that?

I don't know.~A

Alrighty then. I'm sorry you had a bad day, don't put up with Nicole's shit.

Nicole? How'd you know her names Nicole?~A

SHIT! What do I do? What do I do?! I just fucked up my whole cover. She knows I'm not who I said I was but she also doesn't know that I like a few fucking feet away from her either.

Do I know you in person?~A

Do I have to answer that?

Yes.... No but I'd like it if you did.~A

Fuck... Yes you do.

Do you go to my school or what? How do I know you? How come I wouldn't recognize your name? ~A

Maybe because I avoid people and nobody calls me Jackson anymore and I'm rarely at school.

I'm not answering those questions trust me you'd be better off not knowing who I really am...

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
My beautiful people.

I'm sorry that most of this is just conversation and texting right now but just wait until he goes back to school.

If you see someone without a smile give them one of yours 😇😙
