Story Of My Life

9 | She was just a close stranger, but now...

@tinybitch95 looks like I didn't need a few days after all lol.

Ross' POV:

Our second class just got over and everyone was heading to their rooms. I drink water and wait for Serenity to join me.

Thats right. Serenity Jones. I saw her in the club that day and we started talking. I told her that she danced extremely well, she said that back to me and now after a few more conversations I think its safe to say that we are friends. 

As she approaches, we start walking to the rooms. 

"What are you doing after this?" I ask her.

"Praying."

The fuck?

"What?"

"Praying. I am going to pray to Jesus and read the Bible." she says very sophisticatedly. 

"No offense, but why would you pray right now? I mean, you could go to the club, arcade, beach..."

"But I missed it today. I need to do it."

She prays everyday? I am not saying its bad or anything, its just that I am barely religious, if not at all. 

"When do you pray?" She asked, looking at me with big eyes, and innocently blinking twice. 

Not the time women!

"Um, I am not very religious."

"What!? How can you not be? Thanking God for everything he has given you, reading the Bible and following his morals, it all makes your life peaceful." she says saintly.

"I do thank him for everything, but reading in general is not my cup of tea, Bible is a long jump. And to be honest music gives me peace, so I am good with that."

"But-" "Can we drop the topic? Don't want to get in some unnecessary arguments."  

She nods her head, but I can still tell she is mad. 

Ugh this is so annoying. Just another reason why I don't do relations. Girls get pissed at the smallest things and then act like they aren't but want guys to know that they are and then say sorry to them. How complicated and fucked up is that? Can't you just except that two people don't always think alike and not make a big deal about it.

She is lucky she looks cute when she's mad.

We walk till the elevator in silence. Not able to bare it, I roll my eyes and speak, "Serenity, I am sorry. I didn't mean to upset you. Its just that we both think differently, it shouldn't come between our friendship."

Damn that was some deep shit.

She sighs and says, "You're right."

"Friends again?" I put my hand forward.

She rolls her eyes with a smile and shakes my hand, "Friends again."

I open my arms and bend forward, but she pushes me back. "Lets hug when you're less sweaty."

I step back and nod. This reminded me of when Austin was orange and sweaty and was about to hug Ally but she stopped him and said- lets hug when you're less orange and sweaty.

.....why do I know that?

Lollll remember when Austin said that when he finished Ally's Romeo and Juliet line.

Why do I know that!?!?!?

The elevator opens on third floor, and I step out. Serenity's room was on the fifth floor. I wave at her at her and start walking to my room, when I hear someone yell, "Laura!"
