A Million Crushes

Conor

She laughed like she was bored. ''Very funny'' She said and disappeared.

This girl was harder than I thought. I couldn't help but feel slightly jealous when she said she was going on a date with Danny.

But then again, some crazy shit goes through my head sometimes.

I considered running after her.

Nah, the girl was too stubborn for her own good.

I believe that is the reason you like Ms Smith.

I hated my conscience, I really did.

My conscience remained silent as I made my way to lunch.

As I was walking down the cafeteria I spotted Teya with one of the cheerleaders.

Brittany? I think. I can't remember her name but I'm pretty sure we've made out before.

I stood in front of Teya.

''Conor, move'' She giggled.

It made me sick, she had just hurt Leah and now she was laughing like she'd just seen Peter griffin naked.

''Do have any idea how much you hurt Leah?'' I asked.

The smile on her face dropped.

''I thought you wanted to date'' She pouted.

Was this female fucking drunk on milk?

I scoffed.

''You're fucking disgusting.''

''Conor, I'm sorry I-

''Save it! You call yourself a friend, your some damn friend lemme tell you.''

''Why do you care?'' She shouted, prodding me in the chest with her finger.

Everyone's eyes were on me now, awaiting my answer.

I took a deep breath.

''B-because Leah deserves better'' I managed to say, then stormed out.

Leah

''You have a date??''

''Yes, mum for the millionth time this hour.''

She screamed again.

God bless the receptor cells in my ears.

''I didn't even book a hair stylist! What will you wear? All you have is ugly dull tomboy clothes!! Shoes? What about the shoes!!! I-''

''Leslie!!!'' I shouted.

I hardly ever called my mum by her first name. But she seriously needed to calm her damn nipples down.

'' I still want to be me, Mum.''

She nodded in understanding.

''Yes. Very well then. It's all fine. In fact, it's tremendous! Everything's topsie boo!'' My mother laughed uneasily. ''I'll er finish off the macaroni''.

I nodded her out of the room.

I decided I'll play it nice and easy.

I ended up in a superman tank top, jeans and dip-dye converses.

I kept my make-up on natural and applied a tiny amount of lipstick.

 I shuddered at the thought of a full on make over.

I grabbed my owl embroided satchel and headed out.
