Joshua Bliss

Chapter 10: Jealousy

"So... um... what are we?" Jason asked, as he stopped in front of my house. After I spontaneously kissed him, we made out in the middle of the hallway for a while, and then practically didn't say anything to each out afterwards. It was pretty awkward after, but I mean, he kissed me back, so at least it wasn't like, really weird or anything. But we had about half an hour left before school ended, so it was a little awkward then. We took up the silence by him playing the guitar though, and he is pretty awesome on it, so it did good. We left earlier than usual, so we put the guitar back in the music room about 15 minutes before the last bell rang, and then we left.

"I don't know," I answered him quietly. This was the first thing we said to each other for the entire car ride, because of the whole awkwardness. I like silence at times, but not awkward silence at all. And this would be the second time we are caught in a situation of awkward silences, and I still hate it very much. But it's really my fault, because I kissed him randomly and he wasn't even expecting it. And I think that if you kiss someone out of the blue, you should say something first, right? I don't know... But anyway, we just drove home from school in complete silence.

"Well, Kat, do you wanna be my girlfriend?" He asked, turning in the seat to look at me. He was looking straight ahead, and so was I. So since he turned to face me, I turned as well to face him. He sounded really confident when he asked, not that I was complaining about it. But when he questioned what we were, he didn't sound so confident, but now he's just like a whole different person.

That made a small smile come to face, but I didn't try to hide it, I wanted him to know I was happy about him asking me to be his girlfriend. "I'd love that," I answered him, already feeling the blush creep onto my face.

He smiled and leaned over, giving me a soft kiss on the cheek. "Then I'll see you tomorrow, girlfriend."

"Bye," I giggled, feeling the same feeling in my stomach when he said the word girlfriend. I sent him one last smile, and then I got out of the car and headed to my front door. The smile that was on my face because of Jason immediately left my face when opened the door and saw Kendrick and Taylor; they were in a very heated make out right now. They weren't even fully dressed, gross; they could at least keep it in Kendrick's room or at Taylor's house. I slammed the door shut, just so they knew that I was here, and stormed upstairs to my room. I wasn't just mad about them being here, doing that, but I'm just still really mad at Kendrick. I don't think he cared anyway, so it's not getting me anywhere. I can't help it though, I'm still mad at him.

I stayed in my room alone for another thirty minutes, before I started to get hungry. Josh wasn't over, which was pretty weird, because he normally is like, always here when Taylor's over. But I didn't really bother too much about it, not like I even wanted him here. I mean, I don't despise the guy or anything - I don't even know if we're friends. But I was supposed to tutor him, I remember. He said that we should start today, and he said he'd come over when Taylor was here, but he's not here. I don't have his phone number or anything to call him and see what's up, so I guess I can't really bother with that too much right now. It was nice that he wasn't here though, because I don't really know how to tutor people. But I had homework to do, and I realize that I haven't been getting homework a lot at this school, which I am totally not complaining about. At my old school, homework was a daily thing, and it sucked. This was probably the second or third day we had homework; I hadn't been doing the homework either way, but considering I have nothing to do, I guess I can busy myself with that. But I'll do it after I eat, before I starve to death up here in my room.

I opened my bedroom door and headed downstairs, seeing that Taylor was gone. "Where's Taylor?" I wondered, stopping by the bottom of the stairs and looking at Kendrick. I was still mad at him, but I didn't want to be that kind of mad where I don't talk to him.
