I was so happy when I woke up this morning, so that I could see Ian again. That happiness quickly faded when I realized I had to see my ex-friend. "What am I going to?" I said aloud, as my mom came in. She said "what's the matter sweetie? Is it boy troubles, you can tell me anything you know."
I thought about it, and decided I should. But I'm going to do it later, after school. "Mom, I gotta get ready! I;m late so, if you could..." I gestured toward the door. She looked confused and then said "Oh, of course! I'll just, make you breakfast."
I quickly did my morning routine, got a piece of toast, and then ran out the door. I saw Ian and my heartbeat quickened. I smiled at him a waved, he started walking toward me. He asked "Can I take your backpack for you?" "Of course you can silly!" I said happily.
"You seem happy this morning," he said. "aren't you mad about what happened yesterday?" Of course I am! I thought to myself, I'm just trying to forget about it, thank you for reminding me. Instead, I said "no, I mean, it's understandable, you are irresistible!" I said and flashed a smile, hoping he wouldn't see through my lie. Apparently he didn't because he moved to another topic. He started to say something else, when Kaitlyn called "Oh Ian, Ian Ian Ian! Come over here so I can brag that your my boyfriend!" To me, she gave me an evil eye than a smirk, and I said to Ian "Uh, are you dating her? Were you going to tell me that it's over?!" He looked astonished and hurt, he said "I thought we went over this, I'm. Not. Dating. Her. It's almost like you want to break up, do you?"
"No, of course not! But, she's manipulative, she made me believe that you were, and it made me question myself, and you." I thought of a quick escape, "I have to go talk to Kaitlyn, I'll see you later." I guickly walked to Kaitlyn, when the bus pulled up and I didn't have a chance to. I'll just talk to her at free time in school, im he only 'friend' there, I thought smugly.
Tick tock, tick tock, went the clock, taunting me. I'm thinking I just have to make it until free time. "Zion, ZION! What's the answer?" My teacher had asked. "Uh, 42?" I guessed, sure that it wasn't right. "Well," she said. "That's odd because we're in social studies.
The whole class started laughing at me, and I almost died of embarresment. "I mean, uh, I'm sorry. May I be excused?" The teacher looked at me strangley and said "No, now who has the right answer?" There was a pause and, of all people, she called on Kaitlyn. "The Yuan dynasty," she said sweetly. She looked at me then smirked, then beamed at the teacher.
Finally, it was free time, and I could confront Kaitlyn. "Kaitlyn, can we talk?" I asked, sure she's say no. But, to my surprise, she said "sure, I was going to talk to you anyway." I was shocked, but got right to the point, "why are you trying to break Ian and me up?! You know I like him!" "Because, I don't like you," she said simply. I was like, are you kidding me?! But, insted I said "What?! Then why were we even friends?" She looked at me strangley, like I should know the answer and said "to get close to Ian, we're even closer than we were before! I just wish he didn't like you, if you were out of the way, then he'd be all mine." I didn't know how to respond, so I just looked at her with the puppy eyes and got the whole story out of her.
"When I first met you, I never thought I'd even be yor friend!" She started out with. "But, all Ian could do was talk about you, so I figured if we became your friend, then we would be even closer. You'd think I was right, but I was wrong. He just talked about you even more! Finally, I got sick of it and started the rumer, thinking that you'd hate him and never speak to him again."
She paused and then continued. "Well, that backfired because he thought you made it up and you liked him. Well, I didn't know how to break you apart, but, if you just dissapered than it wouldn't be a promblem, would it?" She looked aty me strange and then said "or, you could simply breakup with him. But, that's out of the question." I didn't even relize we went outside until I heard birds chirping. It was then I got scared. She came at me, and I blacked out.
AN) Well? What do you think?
