As I walk to the train tracks my mind keeps wondering about almost everything, but I guess it's always been like this. I look at my feet and the little rocks underneath it and wonder where did they come from. Maybe they came from a mountain, maybe they came from Mexico. There were always too many possibilities, so I just looked at the sky in his usual cloudy day.
I just love cloudy days. They remember me of myself, and it's the closest I get from my own God.
Some people say I'm too quiet, but the thing is that over the years I've found that most of the things that come out of an average person's mouth don't really matter. In one week nobody will remember that little comment you made in the middle of the class, or the way you talked excitedly about your new bag, and you know why? Because no one really cares about anyone other then themselves.
The reality is quite sad, but I'm used to it.
I put my backpack on the train track and sit on it, taking from my back pocket my joint and lighter. Don't get me wrong, I don't really smoke very often. Yeah, about five months ago I started to buy my own pot, and I started to smoke once a week when I didn't feel very well. I keep it that way, never smoking more then that otherwise I don't think I'll be fine.
The joint stayed between my lips as I raised the lighter to it, noticing how red my hand was from painting my hair red last night. Yeah I did that, but that's another story for another time.
I felt the smoke filling my lungs, seeing it slowly leave my mouth and disappearing in the air.
Today is Friday, and I really don't feel like going back until I'm high enough to forget.
My thoughts are interrupted when I hear steps getting closer and closer until this tall boy just sits right in front of me. Why would he do that when there's so much space to sit on? I don't know but I guess I'll find out.
When his crystal eyes looks up, I don't really look away. I mean, this whole awkward situation is his fault, not mine. His lips pull into a little, almost invisible lopsided smirk as he puts a cigarette between his full lips, his little silver lip piercing looking sexy.
I want to laugh at this whole situation but my proud is stronger and I won't say a word until he's just as discomfortable as me.
So I just look him in the eyes as I slowly take a drag out of my joint, blowing the smoke in his direction, as I wait for some reaction. I was waiting for him to look at least mad or confused but for my surprise, he looked amused.
"You're something aren't you?" He finally said, breaking the silence with his deep voice as he passed his fingers into his black hair, his full lips curving into a little grin.
My lips twitched as I refrained myself from smiling as I heard this cliche coming out of his lips. I just shook my head as I got up, finishing my joint and turning my back to him, and started to leave.
I didn't even have the time to take three steps as he appeared right next to my side, with his little smirk as he looked down at me and said "I'm sorry, but I can't let you go without at least knowing your name." He laughed as he exclaimed "I've never seen a beauty such as yours, and I must say I'm amazed."
At this, I just couldn't contain myself as with a grin of my own I turned to him and said "And who may I own the honor?"
His little dimple appeared as I saw his full smile while he took my hand in his and said "I'm Valentine, nice to meet you, love." He gave my hands a little peck and I laughed at his behavior, I definitely haven't met him before, otherwise I'd remember someone like this.
I was finding this whole situation very amusing but I know he probably does that with every girl, and I'm not bothered since it's his way and I understand it. So I just looked up at his crystal eyes as I said "Look Valentine, I think you're cute and everything but I'm honestly not interested in having any kind of relationship right now." His brows furrowed and he actually looked amused "You see, I'm just not into all the drama that comes with relationships."
He laughed and I turned around and walked faster as I heard him yell "Why you gotta be so serious love?"
