Olivia's pov
I was at my locker this morning. I was finishing up my texting conversation with Sophia when my locker shut.
"Hey," I heard. "What's your name again?"
I looked up to see the three rats of the school.
"Oh, its Aspen and her little group of rats." I say.
"At least I have a group. Where's yours?" she asks, making me clench my fingers into a fist.
"I'm sorry I don't have pieces of plastic backing me up. I actually have friends." I state and Aspen flips her hair and walks away.
I open my locker and put my books in and grab my chemistry binder. I look up to see Aspen flirting with Blake. Ugh I hate her so much.
As I walk to lunch, Jordan walks beside me.
"Hey," he finally says.
"Hi?" I question not thinking he's talking to me.
"I like your outfit today Liv," he said with his rosy red cheeks.
"Thank you." I say.
We walked into the cafeteria and Aspen being the snake she is, goes up to flirt with Jordan as I walk to my friends. I look back and see Jordan struggling to get away from her. Aw poor Jordan. I think.
"Ooh look at Livey makin' moves with her man," Sophia says.
"Oh hush. I don't like him." I say.
"How can you not? He's so dreamy." Savannah says.
I snap close to her face. "Hello? Earth to Sav?"
She snaps out of her daydream and eats her lunch. I was on my way to my fifth period when Aspen "accidently" shoves my stuff onto the ground.
"Oh I'm so sorry!" she says in her annoying, high pitched, fake voice.
As she bends down to "help" me she whispers so quiet so only I can hear, "Stay away from my Jordan!"
"Your Jordan?" I ask. "I thought you were with Blake."
"I was, but we broke up this morning. I'm over him. I want Jordan now." She says.
Haven't they broken up 4 times this week? It's only Wednesday.
"Okay," I mumble.
As she stands up, she kicks my folder across the hall.
"What's your problem?" I shout.
"My problem is that you lie!" She shouts for attention.
"Lie about what?" I ask. By now we've grasped everyone's attention.
"You said that Blake never loved me!" She lies.
"First of all, I'm not going to deny that I don't think that. Second, when did I say that to you? Also, why do you have to be such a-" I start, before a teacher comes up to us to break up the argument.
Aspen walks away and the crowd thins out. I turn to my locker and open it.
"Hey," I hear in a deep voice.
I turn around. To my surprise Blake is standing at my locker. He's looking at me so, he's talking to me.
"Hi," I respond. "What's up?"
"Nothing, nothing." he says.
"Nice," I say and shut my locker.
"That, uh, fight was pretty cool." he says.
"Thanks," I say and shrug.
"Okay I'm not going to make you late or anything and if you say no, I'll understand." he says quickly.
"Okay, carry on." I say curiously.
"Can you please pretend to be my girlfriend to make my ex jealous? Also to prove to my friends that I actually can keep a girlfriend?" He asks.
"I don't know," I say.
"Do you think that you'll have an answer by later today?" He questions.
"Maybe by the end of the school day but if not whats your snap?" I ask.
"Smooth Liv. Smooth." He says.
"That's not what I meant." I say emphasizing the word "not".
"Yeah, yeah." He says. "Catch ya later Thompson."
As he walks away I head to my next class. Yay, math.
I walk out of math and head to my car. I'm 17 and my parents finally got me a car. It wasn't the best car but it got me from point A to point B safely, so I was fine.
I walked into my house and saw my mom on the couch.
"Hey," she says.
"Hey," I say.
I head to my room with my backpack so that I could finish my homework. I look down at my phone and finally realize, I never gave Blake an answer. I whip my phone into the air and text him. "Hey!! It's Liv. I thought about what you asked me and I have an answer. It's a yes. I'll do it. BUT I'm not doing anything crazy for you."
10 minutes later he responded with a "k" and we left it at that.
I finished my homework and got ready for bed. When I was brushing my teeth I got a text from Blake, "hey liv when we get to school tomorrow meet me in the hallway by the stairs" he said in one message. "aspen always walks by there so act really flirty when she walks by"
This time I responded with a "k" and went on with my business.
