It's been a while since I've seen Charley under the tree. But now he's in the hallway, and now is the perfect opportunity to talk to him. I walked up to him as he searched through his locker. "Hey Charley," I smiled. He smiled back at me.
"Hey, Celine. Look, I wanna apologize for blowing you off the other day. It's just I realized something and I just had to deal with it as soon as I could."
"Relax, it's okay. Don't worry about it. Besides, I am dying to know what you ran off to..." I indirectly suggested.
He sighed deeply. "It's Allison. I'm gonna be honest, I had a crush on Allison, too. But I genuinely thought that if I told her about my feelings, she'd reject me. She always gave me this 'friend-zone' vibe, and I thought things wouldn't work out. I can't stay stuck fantasizing about a girl who was probably never gonna be with me like that, so I tried to move on...and then my eyes landed on you," he finished.
I honestly didn't know what to say. Should I feel insulted because he likes Allison way more than me? Or should I be happy that he finally has a chance with Allison?
I think I'll go with the latter, just to avoid hypocrisy.
"I get it. You liked Allison more. The same way I liked Chase more. It's all relatable. But...what happened with you and Allison? Did you find her?" I asked.
"Yeah, I did. I told her I knew about her feelings. She told me this long story about liking me but having lingering feelings for Chase, and some blackmailing shit with Alice involved. Honestly, she cried telling me about it, but I told her I liked her back. And, well, things got a little bit hotter..." he practically blushed right in front of me.
"I'm happy for you," I said, giving him a hug. "Thanks, Celine," he responded, stroking my hair while we were still hugging. But that's when someone next to us decided to clear their throat.
"Ahem!" Chase said, glaring at Charley. "You don't take warnings very well, do you?" Chase sneered.
"Jeez bro. Relax. There's nothing wrong with a friendly hug," Charley rolled his eyes.
"Oh yeah? That didn't look very friendly to me," he continued to glare.
"I don't get it. You guys aren't a thing, and yet here you are, showing me your defensive, jealous side," Charley bluntly stated.
"You better watch your mouth," Chase stepped closer.
"Whatever," Charley blew him off effortlessly. "See you around Celine," he waved, and with that, he left the both of us standing there.
"What was that?" I asked Chase as soon as Charley was out of ear shot.
"I don't know what you're talking about," he shrugged.
"I'm not dumb. You were totally jealous. No questions asked," I laughed.
He gave me a hard expression, saying absolutely nothing.
"Look, it's okay. Charley likes someone else. And that was a gesture of friendliness. It's nothing you have to sweat about."
"I just...didn't like the way he was holding you. No one should hold you like that," he flared.
"Why not?" I teased.
"It physically hurts to see another guy on you, Celine."
"Aww, that's so sweet. But... I'm not entirely yours. I mean, we're not dating," I pointed out. One kiss doesn't declare a relationship. Not that I don't mind being in one with him.
He smiled. "That'll change soon, princess. That'll change soon," he winked at me, before leaving me in the hall.

🏴LGBT SMUT WARNING🏴
I was in the school gym, studying for another test. I know that I'm supposed to be studying in the library or something. But that's probably the only library on earth that's not 'quiet'. Since the gym was empty, I just thought, 'why not take advantage while it lasts?'I was sitting at the top floor, where no one could see me. Then, as I started to get in depth of Russian history, I heard the door open. To my surprise, it was Lila. Lila and Livie. They held hands as they walked into the gym, giggling and closing the door behind them. I would've called out to them, and say hi...but something felt off. What are they doing in here?
As if on cue to answer my question, they walked over to the bleachers' bench, and started making out right then and there.
My eyes widened to the size of saucers, and my mouth was hanging. Shut up, and tell me this isn't happening.
They kissed each other hungrily, and not too long after that, Lila opened up Livie's legs, who was wearing a mini-skirt. She moved her underwear to the side and started fingering Livie, who whimpered and squirmed against Lila.
Shit, I've never been so uncomfortable in my entire life. I'd rather eat from The Chum Bucket than to sit here watching this. I didn't know what to do. It's definitely too late now to say hi, cause they'd know I was watching them. And that would be so embarrassing.
Livie started moaning all of a sudden. When I took a glance, I immediately regretted it. I saw Lila's head up her skirt. Oh dear.
I looked away, but that couldn't stop the noises they were making. I feel insulted.
I was probably stuck here for another 10 minutes of audible and visual torture, before it finally stopped. I looked back to see them staring at each other with pure lust.
🏴END OF LGBT SMUT WARNING🏴"I love you, Livie. I want you to know that. Even if you don't love me back...although, I strongly believe that you do," Lila said, holding her hand.
"I know...I just don't know how I feel about all this yet. I don't know if this is what I want," Livie stated.
"Whenever you're ready to come out of your shell, I'll be right there with you," Lila smiled. She left the gym, leaving Livie remaining seated on the bench.
I have to confront her.
I slowly walked down the stairs from the top floor, standing right at the door way. "You looked like you enjoyed yourself just now," I said softly. She spun her head so fast, I could have sworn she shifted a neck bone in the process. "Celine, I... it's not what it looks like," she stood.
"That's what they all say, Madame Cliche," I retorted.
"How much did you see? Were you spying on us?!" she looked at me in horror.
"I wasn't spying. I was up there studying till you guys barged in and made out before I had a chance to make my presence known. So I pretty much saw everything," I said.
She frowned, staring at me as if she just lost the chance to go to Disneyland.
"Livie," I whispered, coming closer. "Why did you keep your relationship with Lila a secret from me? Is it that you don't trust me?"
She sighed. "It's not really a relationship. It's just... I don't know how I feel about it. It's a new feeling, a new strategy, and I don't know how to feel about it happening to me. I don't want to accept it, because people can be so judgemental, and might even discriminate me. But at the same time...I feel like I'm lying to myself," she said.
"Listen to me, Livie. You can't let the world decide who you should be. As time goes by, you won't even recognize your true self. You be you. You're they same sweet girl I met and grew up with and loved. Absolutely nothing can change that. And if they laugh then fuck them all. But I know that whatever happens, whenever it happens, I'll be there by your side, thick and thin. Alright?"
Livie had some tears in her eyes, and I grabbed her and gave her a hug. "Thank you, Celine."
"Of course. Anytime," I smiled.
