You Either Love Me or Hate Me a.i.

A/N: I regret nothing in the last chapter. #noragrets.

Another early day in hell, great. I really need my bi sexual mother to get it straight. Oh, that was an accident. Seriously, though because I hate sitting alone in the mornings. The COLD mornings.

I was wearing the same kind of outfit from last weekend but with a different print.

A group of my old friends walked by and they waved to me. I put on a smile and waved back. I had plenty of friends before until I drifted away from them and I chose to be alone. At least we weren't mean or completely ignored each other like those cliquey groups who ditch everyone.

I sat in silence with my headphones in playing Lemonade by Jeremy Passion feat. Tori Kelly. My absolute faves.

My eyes observed every detail of the school, the same combat boots on girls, or the neon colored basketball shorts guys wear everyday. It really bothers me why guys can't dress up in my school. I used to go to school with my Asian buddies because I'm filipino and the Asians dress nicer. At least Ashton was hot and got away with his black jeans and shirt covered in holes. Wow.

"Why do you have to sit here all the time?" an annoying voice whined. I didn't have to look up to know who it was.

"Because I can?" I retorted. He rolled his eyes and sat next to me.

Today he was wearing a baseball cap, khakis, and a polo. This guy's sense of style was not the best.

"Take a picture, it'll last longer," Lester huffed. I scoffed and rolled me eyes.

"You know for someone like you, you are awfully cocky at the worst times, what an ass," I added.

He sneered, "And this is the time I actually prefer to the term 'nerd.' He bent down and took out his Nintendo. Oh my god, he's one of those.

I sighed and decided to leave. How dare he make me leave? I've been on that bench since before he got here like are you serious?

I felt his eyes burning me to hell and I ignored him not giving a single fuck.

I took out my phone and texted Ash when he'd get here.

He didn't reply so I wandered around the school for a bit plugging my headphones in.

"Yeah, she's been hanging out with him a lot," I overheard someone's conversation. To my right, there were a group of girls when I spotted Natalie.

I slowed my pace and walked past them to hear anything more.

"Shh,shh! Shes over there," one of the girls shushed but I heard them. Why would they be talking about a "she" always hanging out with Ashton? Are they talking about us?

Ashton was walking into school looking down and I rushed over to him.

"Hey, Ash!" I hugged him. He looked surprised but relaxed and smiled giving me back a hug.

"Hey, cutie," he greeted. I smiled and I remembered Natalie and her friends.

"Ashton?" I stopped him.

"Yeah?"

I decided to just drop it because I shouldn't even be overthinking this.

"It's nothing, nevermind," I brushed it off. He shrugged and we walked hand in hand towards my locker.

Sometimes I forget Ashton is actually a senior and I'm just a sophomore at this school. Maybe that's why those girl were talking about us? Why would his cousin and her friends talk about us anyway?

All day has been such a drag. It just went on and I hated it. It's been a while since I've been to a party when I overheard a few guys in my class talking about a party at some girls house.

My ears perked at the mention of that and I had to remember to remind Ashton and the guys.

I needed some social interaction anyway.

Ew what was this chapter. Horrible yes I know, but I've been busy with school and I'm trying to bring them all back to an A or B because it's been tough. Anyway, hopefully next chapter will be spicy I promise.
