Love is for Fools

Good Looks ALWAYS Mean Trouble

Lucia

"Guys, I think I've fallen for the most gorgeous guy in the world!" Maddison was jumping up and down with her lunch tray in hand. It was just Maddison, Bridget, and I. Honestly, Bridget and her are so alike, I don't even know why they stick with me. It's not like I share anything in common with them, if anything, I'm the least likable person to be around with, since my honesty can be kind of hurtful...not that I regret anything.

"Who is it this time, Maddie?" She was the type of girl that crushed on a new guy everyday but never actually...got in a relationship since, well, she got over it as soon as it happened.

"His name is Aaron," she sighed happily, "I have him for PE and oh god he is so hot! His arms when he flexes...you guys should've seen it. It was like witnessing Dylan O' Brien wearing glasses in The Internship."

I stopped chewing on my pizza, "Hey now. Don't go comparing Dylan with someone like that."

Maddie raised an eyebrow curiously, "What's got your panties in a twist? I mean I know you hate like half the male population but you're worse than usual."

I shrugged, "Nothing. I just don't like him."

"How. How the hell can't you like a guy that beautiful?!" Bridget asked, slapping her hands on the table.

"He seems like the typical stupid, useless, self-centered, asshole."

Maddie breathed dramatically, "You're kidding. That's your excuse?"

That's always my excuse.

"Yes."

Maddie shook her head and put her hands up, "Actually he's not a jerk. Today I witnessed him helping a girl up who got knocked down with a basketball. So I've confirmed that he indeed - has a heart."

"I reject that piece of evidence."

"Why?!"

"Your opinion is biased," I replied simply.

"It is not! I'm not that shallow!"

I gave her a look, "Really now?"

She gulped, "Nevermind."

"Uh...Speaking of hot, there he comes," Bridget whispered, excitedly.

"Lucia hold me, I think I'm about to faint." Maddie whispered, while she blantly ogled him from head to toe.

"If you faint maybe he'll catch you!"

She turned to look at me, "Really?!"

"No. I was just kidding."

"I hate you."

"I get that a lot."

"Why don't you go talk to him?" Bridget suggested, "Get well acquainted with him, if you know what I mean," she smiled slyly and winked.

Maddison bit her bottom lip, "No way! It's weird and I was going to go get my soda too now I can't - at least not when he's right there! I'll probably freak out and do something stupid."

I stood up and was about to throw my trash away when Bridget stopped me. "Hey, in that case why don't you go get it for her Lucia? You're already standing anyways!"

When did I ever agree to this?

"What part of 'I don't like him' do you guys not understand?"

"Please... for me?" Maddie batted her eyelashes and I sighed.

"Fine. It's not like I have a choice, as usual," I grumbled. I threw my trash away and made my way to the line. Aaron was still standing there and picking his food. He seemed to notice that I was there and glanced at me.
