it's 9 in the morning, i have no energy in me to get up and being in here right now feels... good
i look at the window and how a little sun is peaking through the curtain, it's cold in here but the blanket is keeping me warm, i feel comfortable in here
i look at joey and he has his shirt off with a blanket on his bottom half, his eyes glued shut with his mouth slightly parted
i really shouldn't have came in here, why didn't i fight him off? i grab my phone from the night stand and see i got 3 missed calls from sophia
sophia:
sorry i didn't come last night! answer my callsjenny and i are getting breakfast come with us!!
btw i left a key under the mat for you!
kelsey davis answer your phone!
i unlock my phone and start texting her that i'll he down in a few minutes
i slowly sit up and pull the blanket off me, i stand from the bed slowly hoping that it won't creek
slowly i make my way to the door and run to my dorm and get dressed, class doesn't start until another 2 hours
i brush my teeth and fix my hair, i look like a damn zombie right now i hope joey didn't think anything bad of me
after cleaning myself up and changing into different clothes i run out the dorms and into the parking lot. sophia and jenny are in the car when i see them
"hey" sophia turns around and looks at me as i enter the car and sit in the back
"hey" i catch my breath
when we arrive at a small breakfast shop jenny is already talking about what her and sophia did last night
sophia laughs, "it was so funny" she tells me and i nod slowly
"that's great" i fake a smile
"i have to go to the bathroom excuse me" sophia tells jenny, jenny gets up to let sophia run to the bathroom, jenny sits back down and looks at me
i stir my coffee with the spoon in my hand. why hasn't he called me yet? does he know that i left? is he still sleeping?
he just doesn't care fuck why can't i just accept that? he has a girlfriend idiot of course he doesn't care plus, like he said, we can only be friends and that's it
"what's wrong?" jenny puts his hand over mine to stop stirring my coffee
"nothing" i look up at her and she gives me a glance
"you know you can tell me right" she takes a bite from her pancake
"it's stupid" i shake my head and a laugh escapes my mouth
"if it's stupid you wouldn't be thinking about it" she says
true, "it's joey" once those words came from my house i notice a annoyed look appear on her face
"what happened?" she ask
"we got into a fight last night, and i got locked out from the dorm yesterday so he suggested i sleep with him" i say
"do you like him?" she ask as if she isn't even interested in what i'm saying, it's like she only cares if i like him or not and to be honest i don't care if i tell her how i feel towards joey, what is she gonna do? tell him? she doesn't even have the balls to look at him
"yea i do" i admit
she sips her orange juice, "isn't that crazy" she laughs
"why's that?" something i learned about jenny is that whenever we talk about something she says how she feels too, she doesn't have a filter on her and doesn't think before she speaks, and she always seems to have a lot to talk about
"because he's a asshole" she says as if i didn't know that
"yeah i know" i sigh
"don't fall in love with him" she says
"what do you mean?" i furrow my brows
"joey... well he's not someone who would actually be there for you, he's just into sex and that's it, when we dated i actually ended up falling in love with him, he's good at doing that" she laughs
"and when i told him that i'm in love with him he treated me like shit and left me and kels i care about you and i'm saying this because i don't want you to make the same mistake i did" she says
"i'm so sorry jenny" i frown and she nods
"it's okay, i hate him now and girl code remember?" she smiles and i nod slowly
girl code? i'm not even that close with her but i guess it's okay. even though lily broke her but we aren't friends anymore and she's just somebody i use to know
sophia walks back and my phone starts ringing, "sorry i took long there was a line" sophia says
i take my phone out and notice i have 3 messages from joey
joey:
hey. noticed you leftagain i am sorry about last night i'm sorry if i hurt you, fuck
can we still talk?
never mind i didn't mean to send that you don't want to talk to me, i'm an idiot sorry
um... i hope you have a good day
i smile a little and start typing back
me
meet me at the library tonight at 8pm
