Love Deprived

Chapter 2

Wysteria's P.O.V
I walk into Target feeling crappy as ever. I mean, who wants to go to the store on a Saturday when they could be doing something way better like going to a movie with friends or sitting at home and reading? I was practically dragged here by my mom,who comes here almost every day to get pretty much everything. You would think that after all the times this past week we've been here that she wouldn't have to come here again. I swear she just does it to torture me. Meanwhile I'm texting my friend Miranda who has been trying to get a guy to notice her but he's too oblivious to see that and he just acts like nothing's happening, like every other guy in this city. ugh! I mean yesterday when I was at my locker I kept glancing over at Kendrick, making it so frickin obvious that I like him and he just walks away! Like, seriously dude, you must be blind because you clearly can't see what I was trying to do there but whatever. I'm sorry that sounds harsh. I'm not usually this mean, trust me. I'm just so mad at him for being that stupid. But anyway, back to the situation at hand. oh by the way I'm Wysteria. I live in a town that should be considered a city, since it has over 50,000 people living in it.

The guy that Miranda likes is in P.E with us. I don't even see what she sees in him, with his dark brown hair and brown eyes. He's average height, and his style is okay I guess. But he's nothing compared to Kendrick. With his sunkissed blonde hair and startlingly blue eyes, a dark glacier blue, and his dazzling smile, he's the complete package to me. Bluebell, my best friend, has a crush of her own. His name is Griffin. I will describe him later. Right now I'm too tired.
"Hello? Anyone there?", Miranda texts, causing me to jump at the notification. I text "sorry" with a smile emoji, even though deep down I just want to crawl into a hole and sleep. She has such a perfect life, The only thing she's missing is a perfect boyfriend, although that can't be too far behind. Oh well, I guess I will be stuck having the sucky life I have always had.
As my mom looks at makeup, I see Kendrick with his dad and little sister Lizzie. She's really nice as far as I can tell. I've seen her a few other times and she seems really sweet. His dad looks a bit intimidating but not too much. As I look around the store I notice Kendrick looking over at me. I look back at him and smile, and he blushes and smiles back. We all know that he likes me, but he is too blind to realize that I like him back so he just pretends that he doesn't like me so that he won't be embarrassed in case he was wrong about me (which he isn't!). By this time I have completely forgotten about the Starbucks situation and am staring into his eyes when I feel a tug on my arm.
"Come on, we came here to shop, didn't we?", my mom says as she starts pulling me away.
"There's nothing here", I say.
"I know that's why we're going to the mall. Didn't you hear what I said?"
"Oh um no sorry", I respond, feeling a blush creep up my cheeks. Ugh I can't wait to see Bluebell tonight.
