Connie's POV
I had been sick longer than expected. After my Chickenpox went away, I caught the flu. Yeah, these were not happy days for me. I decided to lay down and turn my iPad's Spotify play list on shuffle. My favorite artist released her latest song a couple days ago, Happy. It played.
♪ Couldn't relax, couldn't sit back. And let the sunlight in my lap. I sang a hymn to bring me peace. And then it came, a melody. It felt so sweet, it felt so strong. It made feel like I belonged. And all the sadness inside me, melted away like I was free. I found what I'd been looking for in myself. Found a life worth living for someone else. Never thought that I could be, I could be... Happy, happy. ♫
The song gets me in the mood every time I hear it. I should be happy. Luckily, I have Sasha. If she wasn't apart of my life I would have no life, I'd most likely be dead. She keeps me alive. I drifted into la-la-land before feeling a slight tingle on my leg. It was my phone. I quickly snapped back into reality and reached into my pocket whilst flipping the top screen upwards. My dad insisted on paying for a phone for me. He wasn't all that rich like my mother, so I had an old, beat up flip phone. It was horrible.
"Hey, how's everything at school?"
"Same old, same old. It's the last week 'ya know. Until January, of course."
"Yeah, I hope your Christmas present will entertain you."
"I'm tired of the suspense! What did you get meeee?"
"It's a secret." I smiled.
"Well, can't you give me a hint?"
"Hmm, you've been asking for it for a while."
"Connie, I ask for a lot of things."
"Don't go white girl on me."
"Shut up." "No, you." "Don't be smart with me." "Mm, right."
"I have to go do homework, I just wanted to catch up on things, how's your flu?" I paused for a moment, forgetting the fact that I was still in a conversation with Sasha.
"Hello, if you don't answer I can just end the call-"
"I'm fine, Sasha. Don't worry about me."
"Don't tell me whether I should care for you or not. I love you, Connie. I want to know when you're sad. I will not hesitate to come over and hug you until you're not sick anymore..." It went awkwardly silent.
"You're the sweetest person." She giggled, I loved hearing her giggle.
"Anyways, I'll text you in a bit. Goodnight."
"Goodnight, Love you." She hung up first this time. I decided to turn off the music and go to bed earlier. I noticed 'Happy' was still playing. I led my finger to touch the pause button before my absolute favorite verse was sang.
♪ I believe in possibility. I believe that someone's watching over me. And finally I have found a way to be... Happy, happy. ♫
I instantly thought of my grandmother. She had passed away a few months ago from cancer. I always knew she was watching over me, over the whole family. Ashamed is what I pictured her to be. The family changed when she left us. We all went our separate directions. I miss having people to love more than yourself.
The next day
I woke up with a stuffy nose, that was it. I didn't feel weak nor did I cough or puke. I was OK to go to school.
As I walked down the halls people stared me up and down. I had homeroom and first period with Marco. We would also meet by his locker. He wasn't there, most likely because I had been gone for a long while. I decided to check our signature lunch table and to my expectations there everyone was, screaming and laughing and arguing with each other. I tried to sneak up on Sasha before Historia blew my cover.
"Connie!" She cupped her hand over her mouth and pointed at me. Everyone decided to bring their attention on me, making me blush in response.
"CONNIE!!" Sasha jumped on top of me, making me fall onto a seat at a random table. I started to slip off the edge of the bench.
"OK! I'm going to fall!" She quickly jumped off of me whilst reaching her hand out. I grabbed it, she pulled me close to her.
"I was starting to think you wanted to leave me." She placed my hands around her waist.
"If you did, you'd be lying to yourself. I would never leave you." I let my head rest on her shoulder. At this age, we weren't the same height. She was slightly taller, making me feel like I was the shortest kid in the school. But, she was taller than most of our 'squad'. Including Marco. But, Jean was an exception...
"Jean, why don't you hold me like that?' Marco slapped Jean on the arm.
"What? You want me to?..." Jean quickly placed his hands on Marco's waist, lifting him up and onto his lap. They had been getting more sexual everyday. Marco scooted closer into Jean, rubbing their bodies together.
"Ymir, why don't you hold me like that?" Historia shouted at Ymir.
"Shut up." Ymir grabbed Krista's breasts and began to push her down.
"Well, I'm all alone." Mina shrugged and walked toward us.
"You'll find someone, just you wait." Sasha encouraged Mina.
"I think I'll be just fine..." Mina gently smacked her hands against the sides of her.
"No. You know what... we're going to find you someone."
"Sasha, don't. Please, don't."
"No! You deserve to have someone to hold!"
"If I want to hold someone it will be a body pillow." Mina chuckled.
"Oh, uh. Just kidding." Mina tilted her head and turned around.
"If I'm going to find someone, it will be by myself. And, naturally." She said while skipping to her next class. Which reminded me...
"Ah, I need to get to class also, see you at lunch." I pecked Sasha on the cheek, she smacked my bottom in return.
"Happy..."
-NOTE-
