PART 34

one more update bc the last one was really short
———————

It's been four fucking days, and I haven't even heard an angelic voice coming from Lisa as I lurk around the hallways to hear her talk to someone just so I can get a record of her amazing voice. 

Dammit, being away from the brunette is opening up my unsure feelings to a whole new level and it's not something I can deal with—especially when Joy bailed on me after the grocery and told me not to go to Lisa's yet and to give her some time, because as of now, Joy says that Lisa's walls are too up and high to let me in again. 

So everyday, I'd rush to an empty classroom and hide behind the open door whenever Lisa would pass by just so I could hear her talk again. One time Joy caught me and I had to endure a whole day of teasing just because of that. But I have to be honest, telling someone how I feel is not so bad after all, I get to have a person who understands me and be there for me and sure, Alice's great but she's not in my school where most of my shit happens.

  "So can I go now? I drag this any longer she's going to think I don't care." I sigh, frustrated as I stay rooted inside Joy's car, waiting for her to either bring me home or to Lisa's house. 

Joy clucks her tongue and nods. "Since you want to so badly, I think you should go today." 

I jolt on the leather chair and grin widely—stopping my expression before Joy sees it as I slap my face, cursing at myself for turning into such a wimp.

"Then drive before I jump out of this car and walk myself." I hiss, leaning my head on the window as I peek behind me at the grocery plastic bags and the rolled-up bouquet of 5 roses when all of a sudden the nerves come and I feel my body freezing as I shake my head. "I can't do this." I let out, biting my lip. "This is insane—I should be happy, she doesn't want to be bothered by me anymore Joy—I can walk away and pretend like it never happened and continue being a bitch in school." 

Joy side-eyes me and stops right in front of Lisa's house, turning off the engine as I peer out at the yellow bricks on top. Sighing, I rub my forehead while shaking my head. "I can't do this Joy, this is not me. I don't give flowers or—"

  "You could pretend like this never happened." Joy hums, leaning back on her seat as she reclines it. "And live to feel depressed and lost for your whole entire life or—you can try doing something a bit different this time and tell Lisa how you feel." 

I pinch my lips together. "But this isn't me Joy." I reason out again, huffing out in frustration as I cross my arms. "I don't fucking do this shit." I start to ramble curse words, watching as Joy laughs at me. "Bring me home." I sigh, sulking down on my seat as the silence engulfs us.

  "Okay." Joy replies, going to turn the engine on again as I frown at her and roll my eyes, pushing the door open as I ignore her giggles and reach for the stuff in the backseat of the car, sending her a glare as she winks back at me. 

Before I walk away, I narrow my eyes on her. "I hate you so much." 

She hums and twirls her hair in between her fingers as I roll my eyes and gulp down hard, taking the few steps to Lauren's front door as I feel my arm quiver and shake violently when I reach out to ring the door bell.

This is crazy.

The one who opens her door is not someone I'd be expecting right now—especially with me holding damn bouquet of flowers and a bag of some sweet sweets.

This is probably the most embarrassing moment of my life. 

Brown hair and dopey eyes stare at me curiously, a brown hat tipped on her head as the woman before me examines the objects in my hands with a playful smirk.
