Don't give Up

Drunken Eli

Eliana POV

I woke up this morning with a smile on my face with the thought of what happened last night I don't know why. I put in my locker number and opened it taking out the books I needed for class and I put away the ones I didn't need. "Eli, can I borrow your chem book I'll giv- What the hell is a hickey doing on your neck and it's Three"? Lily said.

"What hickey"? I looked at her with my eyes widened. "There". She pointed and poked my neck and she ran after me to the toilet. I looked Into the mirror and there it was, three small hickeys. Then I remembered what happened last night.

"Where are those from"? She asked. "I uh, it's not what it looks like I uh-. "And the bell cut me off saving me from my sister's interrogation. "I should get to class". I speed-walked out of the toilet heading quickly to my class while blocking my hickey's with my hoodie.

It's a good thing I'm wearing this today. I covered my head and walked into my Drama class. Yes, I do Mathematics, Music, drama, chemistry, PE, physics, biology, and history. I took a seat in my original chair as everyone else walked in. I just hope no one sees it.

As the teacher joined he started teaching right away. "Okay, so this term we will be doing a play, if you want to try out for a certain character come to auditions at lunchtime and the play will be on Romeo and Juliet".

I want to be trying out for the lead role. I am actually good with acting and If I play lead I can gain more traction to me. He started giving out the scripts that we had to learn for today. "What character are you interested in"? Drew asked, walking over to me. I actually forgot he was even In this class.

"Juliet". Drew laughed. "I'm sorry I didn't think you were the kissing type". "Well maybe thinking is not your thing, But what about you, what are you gonna be"? "Romeo". And with that being said he smirked and I just rolled my eyes.

"Why"? I said bluntly. "Because I get to have your beautiful lips on mines of course". He winked. "The look on your face is priceless". He laughed.

When It was lunchtime after acting out my role I got to be lead and I was so excited I had to tell Sam. I was walking down the hall in search of her but someone yanked me by my hoodie. I turned around and It was Tanya and her minions.

"Where do you think you're going". She removed her hands from me and dust off her hands in disgust after touching me. She thinks she is some supermodel or something. Why do all schools have to have a stuck-up bitch like her. " I don't see how any of that's is any of your business". I said with my new brows arched.

"I want you to stop trying to push up yourself to my man"! She yelled. "And who is that exactly because apparently, you got a lot"? People were now gathering around us, Why the hell are people so annoying.

"Listen bitch stay away from Zach, he's mine". I laughed at her statement. "I don't want him so You need to get your facts straight and back out of my way".

I walked away after that while people started to laugh at the scene but I just rolled my eyes. No one ever really mines their business at this school. I Walked into the cafeteria and Told Sam everything about what just happened, That I got to be starring in Romeo and Juliet and That we got invited from Zach. She squealed at all of them.

Except when she saw the hickey. She did the opposite." I could uh explain". I said nervously telling her everything. She was surprised. "Don't do anything you don't want to do okay"? 

She said covering up back my hickey with my hoodie. "I know, of course, I won't".

"Well, It's a good thing we went shopping to get new stuff".
