It fucking sucked. This day in particular was very significant. My friend got me his number but the words that he said so carelessly made me look down to the cafeteria floor.
"I don't even like her like that." Even though his voice was like music to my ears, those words slipped off his tongue, skinned his lips, broke through my skin, and rammed straight into my heart.
The smile on my face didn't falter though. I pretended I was ok because that's what I do.
He still gave me his number and I texted him right after school.
Stupid...
