Bus Stop ~ mgc

bejeweled bible and wine

My morning went nicely, Adriana didn't give me any bullshit. I didn't want to go into work so I tried to convince Ashton, no budge. I got ready as slowly as possible. I was just not in the mood today, I had so much on my mind. The walk to the bus was dreadful as I smoked a cigarette. She didn't show up till later and she looked so nice. She was very dressed up, I really tried to not pay any mind to her and act occupied. I glanced when she looked at her phone. Her legs were shaved, I just noticed. Her feet were in these pretty black heels, her body was hugged with a yellow dress that reached her ankle with a slit on the side which is why I could see her leg. Her hair was slicked back into a ponytail. The same necklace as always and tiny pearl earrings. As always her lips were glossed up. I stared a bit to long because she interrupted my thoughts.

"Morning Michael, did you lose your voice or you just like staring at me?" She chuckled and I rolled my eyes
"Morning Navi and who knows maybe I do" she shook her head at me with a smile.
"If you were wondering I am dressed up because I'm getting an award. Not like a metal or trophy but the church raised some money to get me a customized bible, a New Testament Bible by the way and I get to send some of my kids to the other classes" She really thinks that I care about this, I don't but it's kind of fascinating she lives this way. She'd call me the devil if she knew my life.
"That's great congratulations to you" I sounded so genuine it was unlike me.
"Thank you, I should also say that since we are friends now we should hang out like last night that was pretty normal but it could've been funner"
I knew what this meant, it means I'm going to try to find anyway out of this. Especially because of the shit my mind is playing on me.
"You know I work full time when would we have time?"
"Had time for yesterday" she had a point I guess
"Not much of it-"
"Are you trying to not hang out with me?"
She must've read my mind.
"No, i just.... forget it what do you got in mind?"

The bus pulled up so she didn't answer. I purposely let her walk in front of me so I could finally see her whole body in the outfit. We sat down together and she put on leg over the other.

I scrolled through my phone and then after a while my own arm had an arm wrapped around it and a cheek pressed into my arm as she looked over at my phone. I wanted to say something so bad but she looked content I left her be. After a few minutes I was fully comfortable.

Getting off the bus made me 10x more pissed at myself today. I can't even stand my ground with her. Ashton got my absolute worst today. I sat in the chair behind the counter and just played around with whatever.

"Why the fuck aren't you helping?" Ashton said as he stood in front of me with a box of brand new drumsticks in it.
"Ashton no one is coming in here if they do then I'll get up, I can't believe you don't get that the full time thing is literally going to be the death of me"

He rolled his eyes
"I'm not stupid Michael you aren't mad over this job you are mad at yourself. I seen this exact face when you missed that party when that hot girl in highschool wanted to fuck you"
I scoffed
"Just fuck off I don't have any reason to be mad at myself I don't sugarcoat shit"
"You are doing it right now like you are a bad liar, a horrible fucking liar"
I stood up and walked around him
"You really wanna know dickhead?"
He nodded and took my spot in the chair
"The girl" he raised his eyebrows
"The one on the bus, you had to of seen her by now"
"Yeah, okay you sit with her. I'm not catching on?"
"She's a religion freak okay she's a teacher at the church every day. She's very touchy feely and affectionate and nice to me for no reason, always has been. I don't know why she wants to be friends with me but I don't do shit like this"

He chuckled loudly
"You are sitting here telling me that your shitty mindset is stopping you from having a friend that's a girl?"
I sighed loudly
"Ashton, it's way more complicated then that and my mindset isn't shitty it's just the way I like it okay? I don't have girl friends never have. Why do I need one now?"
