Hello there, hope you guys like everything so far. Side note, please read my little note at the end! ENJOY LOVELIES
{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}"Well shit Sydney. I thought you were just gonna offer to have his kids right then and there!" August says surprisingly serious as she gets into her car.
Although I'm offended I can't help but giggle. "Was I really that desparate?" I ask in between laughs.
"That's ok, the feeling seemed to be mutual. You guys were cute with all your flirting."
My jaw dropped, probably all the way to the floor this time. "August, I alomst fainted on the guy! I don't think we were flirting." She just gives me a look.
"Flirting is flirting. I know what I saw, and it was most definitely flirting. Not the almost fainting part. But the rest-flirting. What was his name again?"
"It was Ashton. Why?" I say, immediately regretting telling her.
"No reason." All's quiet for a second as August turns the key in the ignition. Then August bursts out screaming, "SYDNEY AND ASHTON SITTING IN A TREE, K I S S I N G. FIRST COMES LOVE, THEN COMES MARRI-"
"ENOUGH!" I shout over her. "Just drive." She finally pulls out of the parking lot. You could cut the tension with a knife.
"Jeez. I'm sorry Syd. I didn't know it was going to make you that mad. I was just kidding."
"Yeah, I know Auggie. It's just, sometimes a person can only handle so much of your annoyingness in one day." I say, lightening up on the last part.
"Ha ha. You could never stay mad at me. You and I both know that."
We pull into the parking lot of my building. I check the time on the dash. It reads 11:30.
"If you wann come up you can, but I'm probably going straight to bed." I say yawning, as she puts the car in park.
"No thanks, I gotta head home myself." I start to get out of the car. "Wait- Sydney. I'm not trying to make you mad, but you know you can't keep avoiding my questions. You have to stop starving yourself. It's not healthy and it hurts your body more then it could ever possibly help. I know it's hard for you, but you have to learn to be comfortable in your own skin."
I snap back around to face her, tears in my eyes. "That's pretty easy for someone with a size zero body to say. You don't know what it's like to be ashamed of yourself. Afraid that everyone who ever looks at you is cracking fat joke in their head." I'm practically shouting at her, and the tears spill freely now as I slam the car door. "Goodnight August." I mumble as I walk away, even though she can't hear me.
Once inside my apartment I lock the door behind me and head straight into my bed. I don't even take off my shoes, just lay on top of the covers crying into a pillow. Not because I'm upset, but because I know everything August said is true, I just can't seem to accept it.
