A flower can not blossom without sunshine,and man can not live without love.
-Max Muller.Rose's pov
Finally lunch break.I'm so hungry I could probably eat a whole elephant.I headed to to the cafeteria with my rumbling stomach.
Hush baby hush I'm going to feed you in a minute.
In all the people in the world why am I stuck with a freak. Hey!it's not weird to talk to your stomach.
I made my way towards the line and at my turn I bought my usual chicken nuggets and pineapple juice.
Headed to our,Dove and mine's,usual table I see Dove waving at me.
I slide down next to her and open my bag checking for it.Aha found it.
"Sriracha Hot Chilli Sauce,Rose I promise it seems like you're addicted to it and now you even bring to School.Its weird"Dove said eyeing my poor sriracha baby.
"Hey it's not weird and second who said I'm was normal"I retorted not finding my hot sauce addiction weird at all and adding more sauce to my chicken while humming.
Just keep adding just keep adding just keep adding.(aka just keep swimming tone from Finding Nemo)
You know maybe you should listen to Dove, for once your freak of a friend is right, your addiction is getting to out of hand.Well may be you should shut it.
I was in the middle of flooding my nuggets in an ocean of sriracha when someone slid beside me and said"Woah don't you think that's a little too much"
I saw Jay sitting right next to me.Since now we already know each other-well I know him.I can talk to him with confidence,I hope.
"Its never too much sauce"I replied, my eyes never leaving my food.
"Hey"I saw Logan sitting at Dove's side, why are they here?
Dove cleared her throat and asked politely"umm not to be rude or anything but why are you umm sitting here"and raised her perfectly shaped eyebrow.
"Well we just saw two very lucky girls sitting alone and we thought-"I cut Jay off,he was already starting to make me angry which is very unusual since I'm usually all sunshines and rainbows...not but on a serious note I'm usually quite calm and collected.
"you thought what?That you should bug us and destroy peace even more?"I was starting to get mad,real mad and I just don't know why maybe because him being close to me is effecting me and by effecting I don't mean like I'm suddenly feeling all happy and all but actually quite the opposite.
"Woah there pretty girl calm down"he held up his hands in mock surrender which was clear due to the amusement in his eyes.
I clenched my jaw at 'pretty girl'.I don't like any sort of endearment.And through my gritted teeth I seethed "Don't call me that".
"ok I won't call you that"He said innocently then added afterwards"cup cake".
"Don't call me that either!"
"Fine!Sugar plum"
"Jay-"
"Angel,Sweetheart,Honey,princess-"
I grabbed a hold of his collar and brought him close and glared at him and challenged him"I dare you to say one more endearment and I'll personally claw your pretty face"
"you think I have a pretty face"he asked as if not aware of my death glare and continued"kitten"
"ok that's it"I was about to up at him but Dove holded me by my waist protecting Jay from his death.
"Let me go Dove"I struggled against her hold.Wow she's strong.
"That's enough Rosetta!"uh oh she never calls me by my full name it's always Rose.Great now she's angry with me.
She tugged me with her outside the cafeteria creating drama everywhere.
"Rose what's with you today?What did he even say to make you so furious Rose?! Tell me what's going on with you?let me help you Rose.You're my best friend,my sister,if something is bothering you then tell me"she pleaded but I didn't know what to say to her I didn't even know what was happening.It was just that he was effecting me to much like he had power over me and I didn't like it I can't go through heartbreak once more.
"Its nothing,I'm just frustrated because of mum"It was half true mum was getting worse each day."I'll go and apologize to him right now"
I left looking from him in the hallways as the lunch break already ended.Maybe I could find him in the crowd.
