Crushed •|COMPLETED|•

Chapter 6

I watched Quincy as she raided her wardrobe of what to wear for Edwin's visit. I don't get why she's getting all worked up. I mean its not like they haven't met before, they have..countless times. I don't see the need for a lady to raid her closet just because she wants to look attractive for a guy, that doesn't mean you have to look unkept, no. I feel you should just be yourself and if he loves you for it, good. If he doesn't, better.

There are plenty fishes in the freaking sea.

"Aren't you gonna help me?!" She screamed throwing clothes at me.
I giggled "No, but I know what I can do" I said winking at her.

"Make me up?" She asked anxiously.
" yeah but not now. I'm gonna get something to eat and.." I got up walking to the kitchen.

" I had a weird experience at work. Luke called me into his office to ask if I was alright. Urhk! I don't know what his plans are, but I ain't falling for it. He said to come over with Edwin today." I said loudly from the kitchen. Made a cereal and got back into the room.
"Did you even hear me?" I asked with a spoonful of cereal in my mouth.
"Yeah, yeah.. Listen, Gabby" she turned to look at me, hands folded.
"He just wants to know you. Hang out with you, become your friend. That's all, Okay?" She said calmly and slowly.

"Whatever.. I don't need any more friends. One's a company, two's a Party. " I replied with a smirk.

After turning her room into a total disaster, she gave up and chose to wear her skinny jeans with a tank top. I made her up as promised.

We ate breakfast together then decided to watch TV till the visitors arrived.
"Did I tell you I had a fight with Travis and I think he's finally over me?" I broke the silence.

Her eyes went agape. "Travis, Elvis. If you ask me, they're similar and weren't good for you honey.. I'm really sorry bout that. Oh you poor young lad, having boy issues. Sheesh" she gave me a tight hug before we heard the doorbell ring.
" Holy crap! Its them!! Quick! Go take a shower. What were you thinking not taking a shower till now" she said pushing me away.

I ran to the bathroom. I think she just transferred her virus to me, I quickly showered. Found a T-shirt and a trouser, applied just a lip balm, put my hair in a messy bun(while still a little wet) then got to the living room to see Luke. Just Luke? What the hell now?

"Hi, uhm where's Quinn and Edwin? I asked with a fake smile.
" Quinn said she needed to get lady things and begged Edwin to take her. Seemed to me like she just wanted to leave so bad" He said while watching the TV.
That girl...she purposely left us here. Alone! I tried to hide my anger so bad I felt myself getting hot.

"Oh, okay. Well, you're welcome. Do you want something to drink? Water, Orange juice? Alcohol.. Though its just past 1." I said walking into the kitchen.

"Water's fine." He said and I nodded.
"So, mind telling me a little about yourself? He said with a smile.

" Well.. My name, Gabrielle Salvador. I'm twenty. I'm half Puerto Rican. Nothing much really. " I responded offering him a cup of water.

I don't really know what to say when I'm asked about myself. There's nothing much to say, really. I remember when mom used to tell me, if any guy asks you who you are Gabby, tell them you are 'not interested' and walk away..If he's serious, he'll come meet your papa if not, baby let him go..you're a jewel. My Jewel. Don't let any one in until you truly, I repeat truly love him.
I smile at my thoughts and look up to find him staring at me.

"What? It is my world." I laugh.
"Yes, indeed it is". He smiled.

Luke's Prov:
I'm so going to kill Quinn for leaving us here. I mean, I know how uncomfortable it must be been left alone by a complete stranger.
