"Hey, Brea?" I say with every piece of confidence I have.
"yea wassup"
I love the way she talks, the way she always puts her hair in a slick back ponytail going down her back, the way she rolls her eyes every time I try to talk to her, I just love her.
"well, I just wanted to know if you'd want to go to Main Event with me on Saturday?" I say playing with the cuffs of my fleece. She stayed with a blank face for two minutes before finally answering me, "Nah." She said it so nonchalantly and it really hurt how little respect she had for me. I walked away and grabbed my goggles as my heart broke in two, I saw Mohamad in the corner of my eye. I had a perfect idea, I just didn't know how to execute it.
I walked up to him in a very posh manner. "Hey Mohamad," I say flirtatiously. "what?" he says taking his airpods off. "I- I said hey" he walked away toward Brea. I fucking hate this. I'm in love with her and she will never know.
I walked up to my BFF's Meghan and Kiana in the hallway. "yall I'm dead-ass about to kill myself" I said linking my arms with the both of them. "what why?" said Kiana laughing.
"I'm in love, I love someone and they don't love me back... They never will..."
"who's they?" said Meghan "uhm... her names brea..." I said looking down with a streak of sadness running down my cheek.
