"thanks..so about that food! i am starving!"

tori's pov:
"well i already gave it to you.."

"duh"
he remembers my starbucks order? i mean it was only a few days ago, but i really didn't think he'd pay attention to what i was drinking or eating.
"are you gonna eat it? you're just staring at it.."
something about today is off and i honestly couldn't tell you what it is.
"yes i'm gonna eat it"
i say as i take a sip of my passion tea lemonade. he looks at me kinda weird. and i slightly narrowed my eyes at him. then he narrows his. a bit more than mine.
"are you trying to have a staring contest with me?"
he shrugs his shoulders and tried to speak but i stopped him.
"you do know you're not gonna win right?"
he laughs and smirks at me.
"you sound very confident. but today's the day that ends. forever."
wow. he buys me food ONCE and thinks he's the absolute shit.
ur right he is but that's not the point.
"ohhhhh. i see i see."
he slowly nods his head.
"mhm i know you do"
  "well here's the thing.
this is..como se dice..MY HOUSE. therefore i win everything and you win nothing. and if you do win something, you leave." i smiled sinisterly.
he didn't seem to be phased by that. and honestly i wouldn't either i sound like an complete idiot.
"fine. since i already know i'm gonna win i'll just leave right now." he starts to get up and starts walking very slowly to the door. and i just watch him.
he looks over his shoulder as he's walking.
"gasp i'm leaving."
"you can try to stop me"
in all honestly i'm not even listening to him. he has a nice butt tho lmao.
"uh oh i'm so close to the door."
i decided to give in to his little act i guess.
"oh no please don't leave. i don't know how i'll live without you."
then i pretended to faint on the floor??? idk i fell tho. then i did the little "hand on my forehead" thing.
"oh please don't go"
he turned around and did some weird run over to me. i tried so hard to not laugh but he looked so stupid i HAD to laugh.
he sticks his tongue out at me and then kneels down next to me.
"don't worry my darling. i'll never leave your side."
i cringed at "darling" eW. but i kind of blushed. or not kind of my face was beet red.
he brought his hand up to my cheek and rubs his thumb on my cheek bone. he smiles softly at me and says, " you know when you're not yelling at me or hitting me, you're actually a pretty dope person. very beautiful too."
oh wow. that was,,just..wow.
i giggled softly.
"thank you. you're very beautiful too. very very beautiful."
he laughs and grabs my hands.
"come onnnn. get up, we still have a full day to do nothing and watch netflix."
he helps me up off the floor and we're standing next to each other.
"well we still have to buy snacks. you can't watch netflix without snacks."
"we can run to walmart?"
"most definitely,,let's go!!"
so we set off on our trip to walmart. of course he wanted to take my car. i don't even know what's so special about it? like yea it's a tesla and it can do all these cool things. but i know NOTHING about this car. he knows everything little thing about this car. like the "horse power"? and all this extra stuff that i don't even remember. that's all we talked about. well...what HE talked about. and i listened. and didn't understand a single thing he said. but enough of that and more about walmart.
"okay so what snacks are we getting?", he asked.
"uh all of them duh"
he looked at me confused.
"all of them?"
"yup"
"all of them.", he asked a bit sternly.
"yes dumbass. all the snacks i want."
"hmph. okay"
whatever so we started walking towards the chips and like pretzels isle and that is NOT where i wanted to go.
"did you want chips or something?"
"oh uh yea, did you want any?"
NO.
"no. not really feeling chips today. i'm craving swee-" before i could finish my sentence my phone rang. i looked to see who it was and it was...jonah? how odd.
"oop well i gotta take this. i'll be in the cookie isle." i started to walk away without hearing what he said.
"jonah? hey"
hey uh what are you doing right now?
"i'm at walmart right now, what do you need?"
oh. well i heard you weren't at school today so i just wanted to check in on you. plus we haven't spoken in a while.
"jonah it's been a day you drama queen. i'm pretty sure we're gonna hang out this weekend. you'll see me again. no worries."
i know that. but still we don't talk that much anyway. and i'm not a drama queen.
"mhm whatever you say your majesty. i'll see you soon jonah, i gotta finish shopping before daniel yells at me."
y-you're with daniel?
"mhm. i thought he would've been the first person you saw that wasn't at school today."
welp i didn't *laughs* well i'll let you get back to shopping. see you soon tori.
"see you soon jonah"
hm. that was odd.
anyway i grabbed my oreos, chips ahoy, nilla wafers and some other extra snacks. you know, the usual.
i started walking back to the chip isle since i figured daniel was still over there.
as i got closer, i heard talking between what sounded like daniel and a..a girl?

look i appreciate you saying i'm handsome and stuff but really i'm okay.

aww come on daniel, we've known each other for a while now, just let me take you out. or maybe we could hangout sometime this weekend?

i appreciate the offer but i'll have to decline it.

daniel please. i know you used to have feelings for me. where did they go daniel? huh? where'd they go off to? australia?

key word lesley. "used to" i don't have those feelings anymore. my feelings are for someone else.

who? who could possibly love as much as i do? no one-

"hey babe!" i said walking into the isle. i gave him a little peck on the cheek, kinda close to his lips but not all the way there.
"who's this? hi i'm tori!" i said intertwining my hand with daniels.
"oh no that's cool, baby lets go" he said pulling me as he was walking away.
i heard the girl say sumn under her breath like "i'll make u mine seavey" i don't know. probably something stalkerish.
"what was that all about?"
"i have the same question for you too, we'll talk about it at home, lets go checkout."
hm. how odd.
