Living Hell

Chapter 13.

- Lucy's POV -

I finally finished my shift. It's seriously midnight. Yeah, I work 4 hours, it's not a lot. But if feels like it. I get out of the gate, I keep walking until someone talks to me.

"Hey." Jared, that dude that likes me, says. 

"Hi." I say. 

I can see a familiar car over there. 

"How's school?" He asks. 

Seriously?

"Normal. How's college?" 

"It's good." He rubs his neck. "Wanna go out with me?" 

Wait what? 

Hell no. My problems with Jake are way more than enough. 

"Like a date?" I ask, pretending to be dumb. 

"Yeah." He shrugs. 

"Sorry Jared, I can't." I try to be polite.

"Why?" He's hurt. 

"We all know that I don't have feelings toward you." I confess.

I know this is harsh, but I couldn't let him live in a fantasy. 

"Olivia, at least give it a shot." He tries. 

"Jared, you're my friend. I don't imagine you my boyfriend in any way." I snap.

Someone gets out of that car. 

Shit.

Fuck.

Fucking Shit. 

This is Caspar. 

"Hey hun, is anything wrong?" Caspar asks. 

Wait, what? Hun? 

Play with it.

"No, nothing at all." I smile. 

"He's your boyfriend?" Jared asks. 

"Yes I am her boyfriend. Now, Olivia has to go." Caspar says, grabbing my wrist.

I get in the car without speaking. I don't know how to thank him.

Jared has been this way ever since I started working.

"Thank you." I say after noticing that he's inside. 

No answer, he just keeps driving. Asshole.

"Where are we going?" I ask. 

It's midnight for God's sake.

"You don't have to use your accent when you're around me." He says. 

Wait, what? This has nothing to do with my question. 

"Caspar, I asked a question." I don't know what accent am I using for now. 

"And I don't want to answer." He says.

Why is he in such a bad mood? 

I'm just going to shut up. 

- 25 Minutes Later -

"Goodbye." Caspar finally speaks.

"Guess I'll see you in Monday?" I ask.

"Maybe." He shrugs.

He's ditching.

"Bye." I say, getting out of the car.

I open the door and turn the light on. Jake glares at me.
