"Azure, just one more minute you can do it. Put "Pon de Replay", I swear it's motivating."
"Okay. Let me just grab my ph-" and there I go down on the treadmill.
I could hear Delaney trying not to laugh but it's pointless. I fell.
"Delaney, just laugh already," I say and Delaney starts laughing so hard she falls to the ground too.
"I would appreciate it if you would stop laughing." I give Delaney a death stare and she immediately shuts up.
"Sorry it's just that it was funny seeing you fall I can't help it. You were doing great though, 254 calories burned," She says
I look at her with pleading eyes to let me stop exercising. Not that I hate doing it but I'm tired and don't have the energy to do it.
"I think that's good for today. We're getting better," She says and stands up from where we're lying, "Do you want some food?" She adds
I nod my head ferociously. I am damn hungry.

We ended up going to Chick-fil-a to eat. Delaney started talking about Michael and then thats where things got a bit more interesting.
She explained how Michael and her met when they were 5 at school. Michael had starting seeing colours soon after they met and so did Delaney. Michael claimed for years that it was her but she denied it. She didn't want to like Michael in that way until one day Delaney snapped, told Michael to stop trying so hard and that she never saw colours when she was with him.
They're friendship fell apart and although they never hung out, they were always together wether in school or in church so they always saw colours. In year 10, Clementine and Michael we're good friends and her and Harper we're also friends. She told me that Clementine was pansexual and that she was dating Harper. They keep it on down low (and she added "You didn't hear it from me"). Clementine started seeing Harper more often in her classes, took interest in them and started dating. So there was no option but to start talking again.
At the end, Delaney apologized to Michael for being rude to him. Michael apologized for to pushy about it, and later realized they weren't apparently soulmates.
Ever since, they've been inseparable but the thing is she never told him they were actually are soulmates. She knows how Michael has been through pretty tough breakups so if she were to tell him, he would hate her.
She says that lately Michael has been seeing this girl but that when he's with her the world goes dull. She's afraid that he'll realize that they're soulmates.
I was surprised to hear it. She's got herself into a pickle and I'm glad I'm not her. I said that to her and she told me "Azure, you're right. You don't want to be me." When she said it, it was like she meant that like her life was troubled and that she didn't want to be herself. I also told her that but she told me to not worry.
Recently I have been hanging out with them. I love being with them. Although they are only two years older than me, I feel like a child compared to them. I think they feel the same way too. They explain things to me and Luke helps me with my homework. The others just laugh about how nerdy Luke is (except Ashton, he thinks its cute).
Mai and Orabella guide me around on how to survive with teachers and sometimes I sneak out with them to smoke (well they smoke, I just read or talk with them.)
Emerald keeps flirting with me but Delaney tells me to ignore her. She says that Emerald is lonely and has self-esteem issues so she sleeps around with people to not feel lonely. She hasn't met her soulmate yet.
Harper doesn't talk to me so much, I feel they don't like me. Maybe because I'm too quiet or shy or weird. Honestly I can't help being weird, it's just something I am.
I feel okay for once, I feel accepted. Also, I don't think about my soulmate problem so much even when I have the dreams everyday. That's good because then I feel happier and it makes me enjoy life.
I lay down and continue to think about how happy I've been these weeks. I start to drift away to sleep, ignoring the fact that there were bad things. I focused instead on the good things.
