I actually kinda felt relieved that I finally arrived at the library. My legs are still so sore from hiking yesterday and I just wanna sit down.
Just before I could've opened the door for the library, my eyes quickly widened at it already opening before me.
It was Romeo..
He was moving fast and looked subtly disturbed to see me so I just remained quiet. Our eyes met, making me unconsciously hold in my breath.
Am I that much of a horrible person that he would just hate me without even knowing that much about me?
It was almost like time stopped before us as we took a second to examine each other. I don't remember Romeo being this attractive but then again, I was high when we first met. I quickly broke the eye contact as I waited for him to leave so I can get inside the library.
After he left, I quickly walked in, seeing the usual giant clouds of smoke and smelling the awful smell of weed. "Babe!" Cadence lazily cheered as he waved at me, his pink lips forming a small smile.
I ignored him and sat next to Sascha, who was silently reading a book. "Did you smoke again?" I asked.
"Nope." Sascha softly responded without looking back at me. "I found out that I don't really like it."
The library door forcefully swung open, Romeo walking back in with what looked like clear bottles of tequila. Wow.
Tequila tastes like actual acid, I don't know how anyone can drink it.
"What about you?" Sascha tucked a strand of hair behind his ear.
"No." I answered fast. "It's not really me and I just wanted to do it to help with my face."
"How is your face feeling now?" He asked, his eyes glancing at the guys who were drinking straight out of the bottle.
"It's getting better, I guess." I sighed.
Cadence's deep voice slowly spoke out, catching everyone's attention. "Guys, I do not suggest getting cross-faded, because you will be gone." He nodded. "Just saying."
After what he said, everyone just continued drinking and smoking as if Cadence didn't even say anything.
"Sascha I think we need another hiding place." I suggested, grabbing his attention.
"I don't know, I like it here." He shyly chirped. "Oh and I know I told you that I liked Jesse, but since I noticed that I would never stand a chance with him, I think I like Cadence now."
I smiled at him. "I'm pretty sure you would stand a chance with Jesse. But you and Cadence would be really cute. I thought he was really weird at first, but, he seems like he means well." Sascha's cheeks burned as he looked back down at his book.
"I thought the same way." He bit his lip. "But talking to him more really changed a lot of my opinions about him. I'm scared he might find out because I always stutter when I talk to him." Sascha quietly explained, his tucked strand coming loose from his ear.
