So, this was never on my list for my future.....

My name is Delilah Mintweather and I'm 15, and by now I should be getting ready for college. I plan to graduate early to get my Bachelors Degree and become a writer. I get excellent grades and all but lately, I haven't been able to focus on my education... There's a girl that I can't stop thinking about.... I'm not gay. I don't love anyone. I don't have any feelings for anyone. Her name is Lilly Springer and she's just.... Beautiful... I can't take my eyes off her. When I sleep, I dream of her. Why? When I talk to her, my heart beats faster. I think I'm falling for her? For now, I'm gonna try to focus on my academics. Maybe tomorrow I'll stop feeling like this.

 I'm back at school, and I saw Lilly in the girls bathroom and I tried to talk to her. 

"Hey Lilly." 

"Hey Deli!" she said in her angelic voice, calling me by the nickname I had since i started middle school.

"Hey uh....I'm doing a poll of how many people are straight and how many aren't in the school. It's for yearbook club haha. What's your sexuality?"

"Oh. Well, in that case, I'm straight if it answers your question."

"Oh okay. Thanks!" I said, plastering on a false smile.

I went out of the girls bathroom before Lilly could say any more and bumped into my best friend, Rosey Gardeener. She noticed I was upset and brought me behind the library.

"Girl, what happened?" She said.

"N-nothing..." I struggled to get out.

"Please. I want to know whats going on...."

"I'll text you later..." I said as I went to hug her and leave to my next class.

Rosalina: [Hey bitch. Can you tell me now?]

TheDeliIsle: [today i made the biggest mistake and i asked lilly for her sexuality for the poll]

  ❀ 12:04 AM

 I barely got any sleep before I woke up around midnight. When I woke up, I found myself crying. My 17 year old brother, Cayde, went to check on me. He told me that every night for a week he wakes up every 10 minutes to check on me. After crying for such a long time I finally slept, and I got at least 4 hours of sleep. This is good, thinking of the fact I only get 2 hours of sleep.

  ❀  5:36AM

I woke up early. I got dressed in a plain grey large hoodie that match my seashell necklace I got from my mother before she and my dad died. I put on a short black skirt with chains on it with dark checkered thigh highs. I slipped on my shoes and went out the door. After a short 30 minutes of walking, I approach my high school. Not long after I enter the school gates, I see Lilly kissing a boy, a boy who I don't know. A lucky boy though, i thought. I ran over to them.

"Hi Lilly!" I said hugging her.

"Hey Deli!" She says hugging me back.

"Who's those dude?" I asked, glaring at him jokingly.

"This is my boyfriend!" She cheerfully says, not really noticing her boyfriend eyeing other girls.

In my opinion, he is attractive, but not to my liking. He gave off a kind of off feeling about himself.

"Hi, my name's Delilah. What's yours?" I said, shaking his hand.

"Name's Zach." He said, looking at my outfit up and down

"Nice to meet you...." I said, a bit concerned since he's squeezing my hand a bit too tight.

He smiles at goes back to kissing Lilly, being all touchy with her. But the moment she closes her eyes, his icy blue irises go straight to me, looking at me from head to toe and back. What does he see in me? I don't have anything. I don't have a big of a chest like Lilly or an ass as big as Rosey has. I'm just curvy and kinda chubby that's about it. There's nothing to be worked up about me. He's not really giving off good vibes. I don't like this. Or him.
