The Group Project [gxg]

Chapter 5 - No, not yet

Corys Pov:

(After Lucy left)

I'm now at Abbys house and we're laying on her couch while watching tv.

Suddenly someone ringed and she stood up. "Who did you invite?" I asked her while she walked to the door.

"Lars. Is that okay?" she asked and I nodded.

Lars is Abbys guy best friend and they know each other for three years now.

She introduced us to each other like one and a half years ago and I would say we're good friends.

Like a few months ago he was in love with me and I thought I liked him too but it turned out that I was just lonely so I thought liking him would make me happier.

That was the time when I thought that I was bisexual because I thought I liked him.

Even though I never found guys hot.I can tell if someone is good looking but I just didn't find any guy attractive.

On Abbys birthday, which was in August, we all got a little drunk and Lars and I hold hands and cuddled a bit.

Even it felt weird to me I just continued doing it because I thought I would be mean if I stopped.

One the next day we didn't talked about it and now it's months later and we still haven't.

I'm now a hundred percent sure that I'm a lesbian.

I actually never liked boys. When I was younger I always had like crushes on girls from series or cartoons and not on boys.

I snapped out of my thoughts when Abby opened the door.

They both greeted each other with a hug and then walked over to me.

I stood up and gave him a short hug.I sat back down again and Abby sat down between me and Lars.

"So..what do we do now?" I asked.

"We can play ps4?" Lars suggested and we all agreed.

"Um..guys I brought beer. Do you want some?" He added.

"Sure." I said and he handed me one beer.

I took it and started sipping on it. Abby then got her phone out and filmed us for her Instagram story.

She tagged me and Lars and then posted it.

My phone then buzzed and when I opened the text my eyes widened.

[From Lucy]
If I were you, I wouldn't drink much. Tomorrow is school

I rolled my eyes and then texted back.

[To Lucy]
Since when do you care?

[To Lucy]
Right, I don't

And after that she didn't replied. I sighed and put my phone back in my pocket.

"So..I heard you have to do an art project with Lucy." Lars started and I nodded.

"Yeah. We worked on our project yesterday." I said and he crossed his arms.

"So..how was it?" he asked and I shrugged.

"It was fine..I guess." I replied.

"So she didn't kill you?" he asked and they laughed.

I'm sitting right here. How could I be dead?

Idiot..

"No, not yet." I responded with a sigh.

*****

| September 9th | Monday |

Now is Monday, which means I'll see Lucy again.

In five minutes art starts and I'm so nervous to see her again.

I walked into the classroom and sat down at my seat. Shortly before the bell ringed, Lucy walked inside the classroom without even looking once at me and then sat down on her seat.

I turned around to look at her but she's avoiding my gaze. I turned back around and bite my inner cheek.

"Okay guys. Today we're going to do partner work. You can choose your partner and I'll hand out papers with exercises." the teacher said and everyone stood up and walked to their friends.

I then decided to stand up and sit down next to Lucy. Many students looked at me shocked but I just shrugged it off.

"Hey." I said and she turned to me.

"Hi.." she replied and gave me a small smile.

"Um..about Saturday. I can't work on the project with you because my birthday is on Saturday." I told her and her eyes widened for a second.

"Oh okay." she responded and then looked down at our paper.

"We can work on Friday after school if you want?" I suggested and she looked up to me. She nodded and then looked back down.

"Why are you giving me the cold shoulder?" I asked a bit annoyed.

"I dont." she answered and I scoffed.

"Yes you are! And I don't know why." I said and she sighed.

"Can we just get our work done?" she asked and I sighed.

"Sure."
