It's a new year and it's freezing. I better find something warm to wear to school today and to impress that new kid Lucas Santiago, Jasmine texted me his name, and cute name it is for a cute boy now for my outfit hmmm..... I GOT IT
I will wear this to stay warm.
****************
Since it's snowing I didn't get to see my friends and I went straight to class and I saw my friends at lunch, where I was going to break up w/Marcus I mean 2 months together is enough especially if you where with mwah. When I got to lunch I spotted my friends and we had a small conversation before I was going to break the news to them"So I was planning on breaking up w/Marcus toady"I said calmly
*GASP!* They all did in unison
"Why" said Erika
"Are you sick" said Jasmine
"But you love him" said Jasline
"Because I can, I'm fine and not anymore" I responded to them "Matter fact I will go do it right now" I said as I walked to his lunch table
"Hey" I said monotone"Hey?" He said back
I didn't want to beat around the bush so I hit the nail on the head.
"I'm breaking up w/you" I said like it was nothing
All his friends were making it any better for him
"Oooooooh tough break dude" said one
"Wooooooooow" said another
"Dam dude I didn't think she would be the one to break up w/you" said the last one.
I walked away before he could answer. When I got back to my table all jaws were dropped.
"Why didn't you wait until you guys wee alone to do it and not in front of his friends" said Erika
"Yea you totally embarrassed him" said Jasmine
"And all for what to prove a point" Jasline added
"Well I never really thought about it that way. Maybe I should go and apologize and explain myself"I said sadly
"Hmmm ya think" Erika said sarcastically
"Go!" Said Jasmine and Jasline in unison
"Fine" I groaned " I'll do it later though not right now" I said
"You better" they threatened
***************************
Later that dayI saw Marcus walking home I called after him
"Marcus!" I called he turned around and a look of shock came across his face surprised to see me.
"Umm hi...." he trailed off
"Listen..." I started "I didn't mean to be so harsh at lunch I just don't think it's going to work out for us I hope we can still be friends but us dating was a mistake and maybe some day you will find someone who will truly love you but that someone isn't me so good luck on your journey on finding them. I walked away after that my eyes about to well up in tears before he grabbed my arm and turned me around and said
"TBH I was thinking the same thing I just didn't want to hurt your feelings I love someone else actually here name is Jessica Marie" he said
"You love someone else too I like Lucas Santiago" I said
"Hey he is actually one of my good friends I can put in a good word for you if you want" he said
"Really I could put in one for you too with Jessica but it's not like you would need one she probably likes you too" I said with a smirk
We had a little laugh after that and I headed home feeling good about my self that I made a good friendship with someone.
