SouthSide Heathens {Completed} (Edited)

C H A P T E R 10

I stood outside the World Wide Cup office as I took a drag of my cigarette before I went in and met Aunt Jenna's boy toy, Andy. My phone buzzes and it's a text from Lip, him asking if we 'can meet at the park and talk ?'  I typed back a 'Sure.'  and left it at that as I took my last couple of puffs before I crumbled the cigarette under my foot and walked into the entrance to the reception where a woman in her mid 30's sat, typing on the computer in front of her. 

She looked up as I placed my hands on the desk and started to tap my fingers, "Hi, how may I help you? Are you lost little girl ?" Her smiled was fake as she spoke and how dare she say I'm a little girl like I'm 17, nearly an adult. "First of all, I'm no little girl, I have boobs and 2nd of all, can you take me to Andy? We need to talk." Her face flushed red as I smirked at her. "R-Right this w-way miss." She directed me through the hall of cubicles until we stopped at one at the back with a man in his late 30's and long brown hair. I just have to say Aunt Jen is one lucky woman to bag this heavenly man.

"Mr. Clark, this young lady is here to see you." She pushed out her chest as she said that and I couldn't hold my mouth back, "Look lady, I don't know you but he's taken and he don't want your skanky-ass. Now get your boney ass back to your front desk and don't even dare look at him like that again." After she scurried off and I turned to Andy, "Hi, I'm Emily. Jenna's niece and I'm sorry for missing dinner the other night." I smiled and he did the same. "The pleasure is mine Emily and it's no problem, I was young once as well."

Around 5 or something, I made my way to the park and he wasn't even here yet so I sat on the swing and thought about Andy- not in a sexual way- He seemed fairly decent in both personality and look wise and he speaks highly of Jenna, which is a good thing in its self and I texted her my seal of approval of her choice of male. After a few minutes Lip finally arrived and he didn't have that little slut on his arm or trailing behind him, just smoking whatever was in his hands. "Hey." He sits and turns his head to me, "Hey Em, how are you ?" The air was filled with awkwardness instead of a comfortable one that we used to have, "Uh- I'm good, you Lip ?"

 "What's happened to us? We were so close and now were drifting apart." He had tucked some fallen hair behind my ear. "Well, it happens when you push someone out for a skanky-ass hoe." I faked smiled but dropped it quickly from my lips. "What's your problem Emily? Huh?" I launched up from the swing, "Her Phillip! Okay, it's her. You don't make time for me but would drop everything for her and that's not right and you know it !" He had launched up from the swing as well, getting close to me. "Well, what do you want me to do? The girl I've loved since forever doesn't love me and jumps down my throat because I have replaced her, with someone that gives me attention !" I stood there frozen as I tried to wrap his words around my head. 

"Yo-You love m-me ?"

"Well, I did but I think I love Karen now, Emily." And that's when I lost it and decided that I can't live in the South side anymore as the person I love doesn't feel the same anymore so all I can do is the only thing I know how to do. Run away from my problems. My eyes started to water as Lip and I stared at each other then I decided it was enough when a sob escaped me and I took off, running home to Aunt Jenna to tell her then leave asasp.

A/n: This book is ending soon and I know I didn't do season 1 fully and won't do a season 2 book but I might make a book for season 3 which will be interesting and you'll see why I didn't do a book for season 2. 

Bye.
