Chapter 23

Song- New by Daya

At School

I'm in Drama class and I guess I never realized that Dexter was in this class. He's a pretty good actor. He keeps looking at me and waving to me and telling me to come over. My phone then vibrates, I looked at it and it was Oliver. 

Oliver: hey, about yesterday 

Me: Oliver, can we just forget it. I'm in class

Oliver: oh

Me: I'll talk to you later

Oliver: what class are you in right now

Me: bye Oliver 

I walk over to Dexter. Dexter looked like the happiest person I ever seen in my life time.

Dexter: hey

Me: hey, what are you guys doing

Dexter: we're just looking over lines

Me: to what play

Dexter: no body to murder *real play, I think*

Me: oh, any open spots

Dexter: how about Countess De Mer

Me: ok, cool

After school

Me: you're really good at acting

Dexter: thanks, you're really good at spilling water on Brandon

Me: that was an accident *they both laugh* well I'll be on my way

Dexter: where are you going

Me: to work

Dexter: let my mom drive you

Me: um, I can walk

Dexter: no, come here. Mom can you drop Cordelia off at her job

D mom: yes

Me: hi

D mom: hello, so where are we headed 

Me: it's a house *say address because I forget what I put*

D mom: ok

Oliver house

Oliver was outside the whole time.

Me: thank you

D mom: no problem

Dexter: if you need picking up, just call

Oliver: she doesn't have to, I'll drop her off. Cordelia why didn't you call me to pick you up

I can see that Oliver was trying to make Dexter mad or jealous. I just walk off because I'm not dealing with a petty Oliver. Dexter and his mother drives off anyways.

Oliver: who was he

Me: someone

Oliver: does he have a name

Me: yes

Oliver: what is it

Me: why

Oliver: because you let a stranger come to my house

Me: just leave me alone Oliver 

Oliver: is it about yesterday 

Me: no Oliver, it isn't. Your being petty and you're trying to make him jealous or whatever. When you don't even know him. He could have been my family but he isn't and no one told you to come up to the car and talk to him. Telling him that I should have called you, no because you never cared how I got to your house and I'm sure I don't need you to drop me off at home when I'm done. If you care so much about his name, it Dexter. Now stop talking to me and find yourself a girlfriend because you want one so much. It's not going to be me because you had your chance and then telling me that you only liked me because you wanted a girlfriend. Grow up Oliver because life isn't going to get easier because you want it to and you keep mentioning about yesterday will make me stop talking to you completely.

Oliver: ok but what is it that he has

Me: do you know anything about me 

Oliver: ..... no

Me: that's it, Dexter yesterday actually stopped his basketball game to talk to me and walk me home. There now you know, just let me be so I can cool off

After the little thing that happened Oliver didn't talk to me, I walked home.
