Philophobia

Chapter 4~Lana

You blew it, I think as I adjust my septum piercing in the mirror. She was basically asking you to kiss her and you didn't. What of I'm only imagining that shes leading me on. What if she was just joking around and I took if personally.

"Son of a cunt!" I scream in pain from bumping my mirror with my newly pierced nose.

I plop down onto my bed and look at the time. Shit, there's still an hour before school starts. I hear Thomas down in the kitchen presumably making something to eat. Digging my hip into the bed as a reach to grab my charger off the ground and plug it in. With a sigh I lay my head on my pillow, ignoring the feeling of my damp hair on the pillow and cover my head to block out the light from my lamp. I could just get up and turn of the light but there's no way I'm exerting any more effort, no matter how of an amount it is.

The next time I open my eyes I'm on the bus, Thomas must've left without me and I went into automode and took the bus. Startled, I look out of the window and see that it's pulling into to the unloading spot and slip on my backpack. I bump elbows with someone as I scoot out onto the edge of the seat awaiting the driver to open the doors and mumble a half hearted apology. After what seems to be an eternity, the bus driver opens the door and we quickly pile out of the bus like ants out of a crumbling dirt hill.
The wind blows and brings tiny droplets of mist with it and coincidentally, onto my already scrunched up face. My nose crinkles even more I disgust as I pull my coat tighter around my slim figure and set my pace much faster than before. The small abrasions littered all throughout my schools old sidewalk make for great places for rainwater to collect and after any amount of rain, turn into small, wet ground bombs. Which I proceed to accidentally step in. Twice. Looking up from my now soggy shoes I see a large mass of silky, yet somehow still frizzy, highlighted copper hair, followed by the faint smell of cigarettes bob towards one of the entrance to the cafeteria and let out a small smile as I watch my best friend trip over nothing. Still clearly buzzed from all the alchol last night.
And just a few feet in front of her, my brother Thomas head tilted down towards his phone, worry faintly shining in his eyes. Its his evil whore of a girlfriend, Kirsten I just know it. She caused another stupid fight on Friday and hadn't talked to him the whole weekend. Scoffing at her actions I plop down across from Jenna and follow her eyes to whatever is more important than greeting her friend. Of course, I how could I forget that Jenna could sniff out Thomas if he was within five miles of her. Chuckling at my friend's boy crazy behavior I wave my hand in front of her face and she quickly gives me an apologetic smile. Before I can open mouth to scold her yet again for drooling so obviously, sher smile gets bigger and she let's out an excited squeak as she throws her hands out at me like she was trying to stop traffic before closing them back loudly into her chest.

"Guess what?" She squeals, stomping her feet quickly, unable to contain her excitement.

"Omgosh, like, what?" I say in a girly, obnoxious voice, pretending to flip my hair.
She rolls her eyes but continues talking in the same excited tone,

"Carter's little bitch ass finally texted me back after leaving on read for deadass like a month and I'm gonna meet him after school at his car and get some good fuck!" She leans her head back near the end of ex exclamation to let out another inhuman noise, scaring the furries sitting at the table behind her.

"It's honestly about fucking time, I thought I was going to have to kill him soon if he didn't respond soon," I say laughing as I pull some toast wrapped in a paper towel out of my pocket and offer her a piece.
Jenna leans forward and take a bite of it right from my hand and I drop it on the table, cringing away in mock disgust.

"Are an animal?Jesus Chrysler Jenna"
Leaning further foward she leans towards the left side of my face until I can feel her warm breath tickling my ear and whispers seductively,

"Only in bed."

Pushing her back it laugh loudly letting my head fall back as I see her flopping her tongue around her mouth pretending to not know that she was failing at trying to be sexy. The first bell rings startling us both though our bodies still get up and grab our leftover food from the table like clockwork. Jenna gives me a quick hug and blows a kiss behind her as she saunters off to class. I watch her as she bumps her hip against one of her guy friends, causing to look up in anger only for it to quickly falter into a large smile when he recognizes her. With a flip of my electric blue and black hair I walk towards my class feeling Jenna's aura of happiness leave me as she does and feel my head droop down submissively. If only she knew just how much I truly love her.
