"And the way I feel can't stand it
My heart can't take this damage"
#Chapter2
Hennessy stared at her boy bestfriend and his girlfriend hugging against the lockers. A smug look was held on her face as a strong feeling of jealousy lit inside of her.
She didn't understand what was so good about her, what did she have that Hennessy didn't ?
Hennessy was startled when a hand waved in her face. She turned to be faced with Yasmeen and Essence who had an annoyed expression on their face.
"Hen you got to stop , leave him where he at" Yasmeen says, giving her a sympathetic look. Hennessy had been in love with Julio ever since they became bestfriends.
" Julio!" Essence says, her eyebrows furrowed. Julio pulled away from his girlfriend, looking around for her. His eyes met with Essence causing his eyes to lighten up. He said bye to his girlfriend before quickly walking over to them.
Essence gave Hennessy a look as Julio approaches them , a huge smile on his face.
"Hi " Hennessy was the first to speak, her eyes filled with joy as she stared at him. He gave her a warm, friendly smile and wrapped his arm around her shoulder.
The small action made Hennessy heart flutter, it gave her hope that they could be something more one day. She wanted him to be that love she had been craving.
"Y'all are so cute" A freshman girl says as she walked pass them.
"Nah we're just friends" Julio says, a smile still on his face meanwhile Hennessy eyes watered and the hope that was in her eyes was quickly replace with sadness.
"I have to go" She whispered to them before walking away, Julio's words repeating in her head.
Just friends, that's all we'll ever be.
-Essence , Hennessy, Yasmeen , Treasure and Seandrea were seated at a booth in Starbucks. After all their shopping they decided to grab a bite there.
"I'm just saying , he knows what he doing to you, I wish you just moved on and find you something better"Treasure stated. She'd been hurt so much and she definitely didn't want none of her bestfriends hurting over a fuck nigga like she did.
"Yea better as in that fine piece of caramel that's staring at you" Seandrea said nodding her head in his direction. They all looked at him. Hennessy didn't look long she turned around and shrugged.
"Not interested" She simply said. She didn't want anyone but Julio. Someone who didn't think of her as more than just a friend.
"See nah, this what's not gone happen you not finna be all sad over this guy and don't wanna talk to nobody cause of that pineapple head ass nigga" Essence stated her new orlin's accent appearing stronger because of how mad she was getting ,she was the one meanest one of the group. She was cold and blunt , but don't let that fool you she could be a real sweetheart.
"Ain tripping bout that pineapple ass boy" Hennessy said laughing .
"Got a pretty ass smile" The dude they had just got done discussing says standing at the end of their booth, speaking to Hennessy.
"Thank you" She responded. Eh he's cute. But not as cute as Julio.
" and I was wondering if I could have yo number?" He asked boldly causing Hennessy to scrunch her face up.
"That's sweet . But no" Hennessy replied. Treasure sighed as Yasmeen smiled mischievously.
" 470-351-8105" Yasmeen said as he entered the number in his phone.
"That's wassup , I'll catch y'all later" He said walking off winking at Hennessy. Hennessy thumped Yasmeen on her head.
"I can't stand you"
They all laughed, happiness radiating off eachother.
