Big Girls (Do)n't Cry[A Roc Royal Story]

Chapter 6- It Just Got Awkward...

-NEXT DAY-

(Sophie's POV)

So we were in school. It just started. But before first period, of course Sophia and Ja'Shayla want to know about what happened last night...

Sophia: *Giggles* So how was your DATE?!

Ja'Shayla: Yea, were you BORED to death?!*Giggles*

Me: Actually, no... But um... Well...

Sophia: WHAT?!

Me: We kinda kissed...

Sophia: Y'all WHAT?!

Ja'Shayla: Wait... Like peck kiss, or make out?

Me: Well if I said it was a peck I'd be lying...

Ja'Shayla: YOU MADE OUT WITH JACOB?!?!?!

She made it so that the whole hallway we were in knew about it... Jacob's not a nerd or anything. He's just a really good friend. He's actually kinda like a brother in a way.

Me: *Sighs* YES...

Sophia: Oh, well here comes your man NOW...*Laughs*

Jacob: *Walks towards them* Hey, ladies.

Ja'Shayla: *Gangs up on him* I heard that you and Sophie were swallowing each other's SPIT last night. Is that true?

Jacob: *Shrugs* Yea.

Sophia: Wait... You're not scared of her?

Jacob: *Shakes his head* Naw.... I kissed a girl who I can still talk to on a daily basis. We don't go out, so it's no big deal right now.

Ja'Shayla: You're lucky we're cool... Cuz you KNOW my foot would've been up your a-

Me: OKAY... I think he gets it...

Jacob: Look, I got to go... Catch y'all later...

Me: *Smiles and waves* Bye!

He left and I looked at Ja'Shayla and Sophia giving me a "And don't think you're about to lie to me" face... Whenever I get that face, it's NEVER good...

Sophia: You like Jacob!

Me: WHAT?! No I DON'T!

Ja'Shayla: Oh girl, WHATEVER! We saw the way you were smiling at him as he was walking.

Me: Yo, I gotta get to class... Later.

-LATER THAT DAY-

(Melody's POV)

I walked to the library and saw Trey there. Not that I had PLANNED on seeing him... I just, DID... I tried to go past him but he called me over... So I just walked towards him.

Me: What is it?

Trey: Why don't you like me?

Me: I do, it's just...

Trey: Just what?

Me: I don't want to set myself up for disappointments. I don't want to have to worry about looking good all the time to that one guy I might not get married to...

Trey: Melody, I would never want to hurt you. If I didn't like you, I wouldn't be talking to you about this, and you don't have to look good all the time. You can be in sweatpants and still look good to me.

Me: Seriously?

Trey: Yes... Melody I like you more than you think... But I guess you'll never realize it...*Gets yo and walks out*

When he left I just thought... It's funny how everyone leaves me to think in a library. Maybe he DOES like me. I've been too focused on my own feelings that I never realized that it would affect anyone...
