okay so ik I usually announce when I write a new chapter BUT SINCE WHEN DO I HAVE 100+ FOLLOWERS ON HERE?
(〃ω〃) thank you! Also, 200+ reads..? Even though this book is trash, it's nice that a few people like this book :0...I think. Idk how many of you are actually interested though, this is just something I do when I'm bored ٩(❛๑)۶ here's the new chapter~ fuhuhu.

btw I really need to think of a story title and actually draw the book cover lol. That'll probably make this book more appealing..

i also didn't plan this chapter cuz I didn't think I'd be writing at this point so IDK WHAT TO WRITE FROM HERE ON OUT LMAO.

A week or so has passed, still no sign of Laurence. At this point, I was slightly concerned for him.

Wait-- huh?! I still hate this guy..I shouldn't feel bad at all..

The bell rung, and the students rushed to their home rooms. I entered the classroom, and I noticed Laurence sitting at his usual desk. I felt slightly nervous to talk to him. Should I wait for him to talk to me first? Uhh..

I sat down at the desk in front of him purposely. I was going to ask him what happened that Friday afternoon, but I was too shy to say anything. Why am I like this? Is it seriously this hard to have a normal conversation.

Well..I've never really had a friend, so I guess I don't exactly know how to start one..is there even a way to start a conversation?

"Hey," a familiar voice whispered behind me. I spun around, sorta glad Laurence was the one who started this conversation.

"Hey, I-"

"I already know what you're gonna ask," he quickly blurted out, "you're gonna ask what exactly happened on Friday? Didn't Garroth already tell you?"

"Well, yes, but I'd like to hear the story from your perspective,"

"Hmm..well I guess I didn't give Garroth much info. Basically, right after you ran off, Gene was about to chase after you, but I grabbed hold of him and gave him what he deserved," Laurence grinned.

"But unfortunately for me, I ended up with two black eyes, I guess 3v1 isn't exactly fair, eh?" Laurence chuckled.

"Well, you managed to punch him, yeah? Better than nothing," I shrugged.

"Sooo, not accepting my apology, hmm?"

I nodded. "I can't trust you, we've barely even spoken till now."

"Well.." Laurence extended his arm out.

"In that case..friends or nah?" He asked. I noticed his hand trembling, and a slight worried expression on his face.

I accepted his hand shake.

I noticed he seemed less tense when I did.

"This doesn't mean I forgive you though," I stated.

"Damn," he grumbled.

It was lunch break, and Laurence offered me to sit with him and Garroth.

This has to be a dream..no way in heck this is happening. Someone such as myself hanging out with two of the most popular boys in school? They're so cute too.

Even though I still hate Laurence, I think, I gotta admit, he's decent looking...

uh, did I seriously just think that.

Garroth was talking about what he did on the weekend, and I noticed a pink haired girl in the distance, she was pretty far away though. Oh..never mind, it's just Ivy.

She had a bitchy look on her face, as usual. I don't exactly know why she was death glaring me though..I don't know much about the people here, I haven't bothered.

"Garroth, Ivy is staring at us, particularly Y/N," Laurence pointed out.

"Ughhh..can she just leave me alone for once?" Garroth sighed.

"Uh..what's that all about?" I asked.

"Ivy really likes Garroth..but she's pretty annoying if you ask me. She can't even pronounce his name right...isn't that right, Garrith" Laurence joked, nudging Garroth on the shoulder.

"Ughhhhhhh..." Garroth sighed.

"Why is she staring at me though" I questioned.

"She doesn't like anyone talking to her..Garrith," Laurence joked again.

"Quit it," he shouted, Laurence flinching slightly.

"Anyway, how was your weekend?" Laurence asked me.

"Uhhhhh..I dunno," I shrugged.

"What did you do though? Anything exciting?"

"Nothing at all. I did.." I bit my lip.

"What'd ya do?"

"H-homework..." I mumbled.

"WHAAAAT?!" Garroth and Laurence yelled in sync.

"That sounds boring," Garroth giggled slightly.

"It's not like I want to do it, my fathers strict," I crossed my arms.

"Well..if that's the case, then you, and all my other friends should hang out somewhere!" Laurence smiled.

"Errr...yeah, why not," I smiled a small smile.

Idiot, dumb, stupid. I'm not allowed to have fun at all! I'm not even allowed out of the house. What the heck even compelled me to say yes to that. I'm mentally face palming myself. Geez..this isn't gonna end well. It's too late to decline now..that's a rude thing to do.

I guess I'll have to go...
