Still Wednesday

I'm just going to skip school until my parents come back. I can't just show up with bruises and burns.

I gotta take a shower and then I'm going to call Finn to come over... well... summon him over

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

I get out the shower, wrap myself in a towel and go to my closet.

Hmmmm

This'll do.

I brush the tangles out of my hair and do a quick fishtail to the side

I brush the tangles out of my hair and do a quick fishtail to the side.

I stand staring at nothing in silence, wondering what I'm even going to talk about.

I can tell him about my dream...

Well...

I actually don't want to relive that nightmare again.

Uhhh?

A simple 'how are you?' Never hurt, right?

Ugh, why am I so awkward!?

I was in the middle of thinking of my next line when the doorbell rang, I quickly went over and without even thinking to look who it was first, I swung the door open.

I looked up to see the cutest smile in the world. The smile turned into a smirk.

"So you're thinking of me." He said more as a statement than a question.

My face turned as red as a ripe tomato.

"ehhhh yeah...."

"Calm down babe, I don't bite" he said with a small giggle

GOD KILL ME!

Oh wait, not sure god likes me...

Does he know me?

"So what'd you need love, is something wrong?" He asked in a worried tone.

I gestured for him to come and sit with me on the couch. We were just inches apart.

"Well... I had a dream, it was the underworld... I just needed to talk about it..."

I noticed him not paying attention, instead his eyes were roaming my chest.

I smacked him on the arm and he snapped out of it.

He looked stunned.

"MY EYES ARE UP HERE! DID YOU EVEN HEAR ANYTHING I SAID!?" I yelled crossing my arms over my chest.

"Uhhh... I-I'm so sorry, it's just, well, red is my favorite color and.... DAMN you look fine!" He said biting his lip.

Instead of giving him a cute reply or blushing, just what he would expect, I smacked his arm even harder.
