Sweet Rich Worshipers

Bittersweet

As I got to my locker I couldn't help but feel happy. After I collected all my things something or should I say someone fell on top of me. 

"Why didn't you tell me you could sing like that?" A voice muffled from my chest which I now  recognize as Mateo asked.

"Mateo you're gonna kill me if you keep on hugging me like that." I told him but he didn't move. "Mattie I can't breathe" I laugh as he loosens his hold on me just a little so I had more air but I still couldn't move.

I ruptured in giggles and my face turned bright red when I saw that everyone was staring at us. With one more try "Mattie please get off me" he mumbles "Fine" against my chest which sent flutters to my stomach.

Me pauses before fully standing up and wiggles his eyebrows as I erupt in laughter. As I stand Zeke pulls my in a hug a says "Your voice is amazing... if only it was used to scream my name." He says as he wiggles his eyebrows.

I turn into another fit of laughter trying not to imagine it myself and say "Only in your dreams" and take a step back as he replies with a wink. I giggle again thinking of all the dirty things coming to mind.

I suddenly feel my head pressed onto someones chest and one and at the back of my neck and another on my middle back. I gasp slightly not expecting it but quickly recover and hug them back. My nostrils filled with the scent of pine and oak as the hug leans a little longer than usual.

As I feel by face turn even redder I stepped back out of Hunter's arms and bumped into someone. I turned around to apologize only to see that is was Liam and he pulled my into a hug, I smiled against his shoulder as I hugged him back. When the hug lingers on for a bit too long I clear my throat and take a step back.

I look around at the 4 people circling me only to conclude that I'm in heaven. I smile brightly and grab my backpack that hit the floor from Mateo's tackle. I giggle as I remember him crawling over me. 

I'm about to ask what they're plans are for tonight but that Bitch and her posse from the cafeteria stroll pass us and say "Whore" as the other says "Slut"

They continue walking as if those hurtful words were meaningless. I could feel the tension in the air between un 5 and decide that it's been a long enough day. I face the group and all of their expressions were of anger and pity- for me. I gave them the fakest smile and said "Goodnight" before racing towards the exit of the school.

I could feel my eyes getting glossy which I hated because those words were just made of jealousy. I think I hear my name being called but I don't turn around. I don't want them to think of me as weak. I close my eyes and sing a song that always calm me down. 

*Play song now* 

"Yelling at the sky

Screaming at the world

Baby, why'd you go away?

I'm still your girl

Holding on too tight

Head up in the clouds

Heaven only knows

Where you are now

How do I love

How do I love again?

How do I trust

How do I trust again?

I stay up all night

Tell myself I'm alright
