"WASSUP, LOSERS?" I greeted with a smile. I don't know but sometime between Malik and I having our little-I don't know what to call it.
Argument perhaps?
I mean that's what it was right?
Anyways between whatever it is that we had and now I've tried to smile more. Cause I gotta keep smiling 'cause no smiles lead to thinking and thinking leads to horrible memories that eventually lead to heartaches, and I don't want any heartaches.
But everybody has heartaches!
Heartaches suck the happiness right outta you, so I gotta be all smiles if I don't want any more heartaches.
Malik was kissing the breath out of Bubbles in front of his friends who completely ignored them and weren't bothered at all. Out of force, he pulled away from her bubble gum lips. They were breathing faster than a pregnant woman on a marathon.
"Hey there sucker," he smirked.
"I could say the same for you," I scoffed, causing the others to snicker.

Lola.
This is what the result of kissing should be! Not a broken-hearted girl who had something stolen from her.
Her hair was a huge mess as if she had just woken up. Her lips were puffy and pink. Like didn't her mouth ever hurt?
Lola's mouth was on a full-time job 24/7. Literally.
Pop.
See what I'm talking about?
"Someone's a bit jolly today," Kat singed. "I almost thought you were antisocial."
"Where's the crime in that?" I shrugged with a smile. "Besides you're talking as if I've been here for a year."
Hakeem answered before Kat got to say anything. "Nada. Nothing is ever wrong with being happy. Smile more it looks good on ya."
