-
Steve!, I
called out and ran up to him.
-
Buffay!,
he said and caught me before kissing me.
-
How are
you?, I asked as we finally parted from the kiss.
-
Good.
You?, he asked laughing.
-
Great
now!, I said.
-
What
happened?, Steve asked.
-
Nothing.
-
Well you
said “Great now!”. So I just thought something must have happened.
-
Well I’m
fine., I sighed.
-
So I see.,
Steve said shaking his head.
-
God!
Can’t blame me for this one!, I said walking away.
-
No I’ll
blame your PMS!, Steve called out behind me.
-
What
ever!, I said shaking my head.
-
The
lover’s fight again!, Dee said laughing as she saw me walking up at the table.
-
His
fault!, I said pointing to where Steve was.
-
Scorned
loved. I feel like I’m a character in Romeo and Juliet., Karlie said
sarcastically.
-
Well
Tybalt you can relax! Because Mecrucio ain’t ere., I said looking at Karlie.
-
Well thousand
hearth panties in a twist!, she said.
-
Shut up
Kaz!, I said looking at her.
-
Okay!
-
Buffy what
did you two do this time?, Bek asked trying not to laugh.
Seriously
I don’t get why the guys laugh. It’s not like we fight everyday. It’s more
like every second or third day, that’s all.
-
He keeps
on thinking I got a bug up my ass., I stated.
-
Called
Steve?, Karlie asked raising her eyebrow.
-
Kaz…
Shut up!, I said.
-
Continue.,
she said trying not to laugh.
-
He
doesn’t mean you got a bug up your ass?, Dee asked.
-
No. He
keeps on thinking I’m complaining about everything. I mean he asked me how I
was going. I said “Great now!” and he asked me what was wrong?
-
That’s
all?, Bek asked.
-
Yeah!
-
It’s one
of those fights again. Damn those inconsiderate men.!. Karlie said slamming her
fist on the table.
-
No
concerned bone in her body., Ryan sighed.
-
Yeah you
wish!, Karlie said shaking her head.
-
I know
what bone he does want in your body., Bek said grinning.
-
That was
good!, she laughed.
-
Guys! Me
here! Talking about me! Not bones or what ever!, I said pointing at myself.
-
Sorry!,
Tilky said.
-
That’s
better!, I said before I made a funny smile.
-
Look, as I
was saying before I got rudely interrupted, Steve thinks I live a downer life.
-
He thinks
you’re blue every day?, Dee asked me.
-
Yup., I
sighed.
-
Honestly?,
Karlie asked.
-
What?, I
asked looking at her.
-
You have
not been yourself lately. Don’t get me wrong and it’s nothing bad. But there
is a difference., Karlie said as I looked at her like a crazed person.
-
What do
you mean?, I asked.
-
Come for a
walk and we’ll talk., she said standing up.
-
Okay!, I
said getting up as Karlie gave Ryan a kiss on his forehead before the two of us
started walking.
-
Look, you
know I’m not the most well spoken person.
-
So
you’re going to give it to me straight?, I asked laughing.
-
Yup and
you have to realize that two months ago I can even tell you what day if you
like., Karlie started.
-
Na it’s
okay., I said.
-
One day
you were so happy and cheerful. Then the next day, you come to school, down as
anything. I mean I don’t know how much you’re hurting but you have always
been able to hide your feelings well, but there’s something there, that’s
picking at you. You’re in pain.
-
I don’t
know Karlie. I want to tell you but I can’t. I don’t know if I can., I
sighed.
-
Is it
something at home?
-
No.
That’s normal., I said shaking my head.
-
It’s not
Steve. School?, she laughed.
-
Na, you
help me with all my subjects you L 7.
-
I prefer
the term intelligent person., Karlie said shaking her head as she pushed a
younger student out of our way.
-
And you
call me a bitch., I said as the kid stuck their finger up at Karlie.
-
Stick that
somewhere before I break it off., Karlie said to the kid.
-
Look Buffy,
the only other thing I can think of is music.
-
Yeah
right!, I laughed.
-
It is?,
she said grabbing my arm.
