Liannas day was better than ever before she was able to wear what she wanted, she hung out with whomever she wanted, her father even announced before walking out the door that he transferred her to a boy and girls high school it was still private but at least she could finally go to a school that was co-ed.
Liannas day was spent hanging out with her friends beck and rose. Beck was this tall, strong man with dirty blonde wavy hair that met his shoulders and he was dressed in a red hoodie and black sweatpants. His eyes were the same color as the ocean.
Rose was more ladylike wearing a floral white summer dress that went down to her knees and her hair was as long as Liannas with it meeting her mid waist, it was dyed scarlet red, straight and shiny. She had eyes of amber and wore red heels.
"Hi girl look at you, what did you do sneak out while your mom wasn't looking?" She jokingly said
"..my parents got divorced one day ago" Lianna stated as she quietly began to remember.
"Oh my god I'm so sorry I didn't know"
"It's ok rose you didn't know" Lianna said as she began to cry and both Rose and Beck locked their arms around her.
"What happened?"
"My mother found out.." "urgh uh never mind"
"Are you sure?"
"Yes let's just go to the cafe already can we please"
"Of course" beck budded in saying when rose took a moment of silence and they started to walk towards the cafe.
"Oh! Guess what Lianna?"
"What?"
"I finally met a guy, me and beck were just casually hanging out at the park when this guy walked up to me and said that I looked really pretty and long story short, we're meeting him at the cafe today!"
"He's going to be at the cafe?"
"Ya I hope that's ok?"
"No no it is it's just that this is all happening so fast could you tell me a little more about him"
Beck cut in to explain before Rose could respond.
"He plays so much sports just the other day we were shooting some hoops at the park"
"Cool" is all Lianna could say as her mind traveled back to what happened this morning she couldn't get the same question out of her head and instead had to ask Rose.
"How has he been treating you?"
"We're did that come from? Of course he's treating me well Lianna I met him a catholic school for boys after all, no need to worry" Rose said as they walked through the glass doors and into the freezing cold cafe that had the smell of coffee filling the whole building.
The three sat there as Roses new boyfriend Nick rolled up and introduced himself to Lianna. She stood their quietly which was abnormal for she was the one who usually talked the most out of the two. All she wanted was this to be over as she felt herself starting to swell up as tears filled her eyes. This divorce was hurting her more than she thought it would. Why did she want to leave her friends she loved her friends all she wanted to be was free hell even rose being that she was a christian girl was even more free than Lianna was.
And as much as she wants to stay to see who this Nick guy really is she really just wanted to go home and rest in her bed. Nick he's just your everyday stereotypical image of what a women's "perfect man looks like" an image of divine nature but Nick was no divine creature, yes he had this sharp jawline and plump pink limps with the most beautiful blonde hair that was brighter than the sun with his eyes being a bright blue, so captivating but yet... deceiving as well.
It was too good to be true and Lianna knew that considering who her father was, a cheater and a lier but she couldn't think about all that now she had to make sure her friend wasn't going to end up like Liannas family did.
"uh Rose can I talk to you in private please"
"sure lets go to the bathroom though I need to take a wazz"
"Rose I dont think you should be dating a man like that"
" a man like what lianna?"
"hes too perfect theres no way a man like that is looking for anything else than sex"
" he went to a christian school, your starting to sound alot like your mother" Rose said giggling.
"I just dont want to see you get hurt"
" I know Lianna I do but im not going into this relationship blindly my father taught everything I need to know about boys and how they think, like rule number one, dont put out on the first date"
" im still gonna keep an eye on him for you babe"
" If itll make you less worried about me then fine"
Lianna walked back to table while Rose went to the bathroom when she got to the table she noticed that Beck was gone too and the only person sitting at the table was Nick he had on black suit pants with a white button up shirt with black dress shoes like he just came from church, as Lianna approached the table she saw that he was on his phone, but their was someone on the phone, she couldn't quite make it up as she was trying to keep her distance so she wouldn't be caught but she could've swore it looked like a girl.
" oh hay Lianna there you"
"hello Nick' lianna responded saying so blankly with no emotion
"is everything alright?"
"ya its just that my parents recently got divorced so im just still trying to cope with the whole thing"
"oh im so sorry do you know why they got divorced"
"yes but Im not gonna tell you we like just just met I didnt even tell my friends yet"
"well then maybe we should get to know one another" Nick said winking at Lianna
The air was filled with silence as the two started at one another till finally Rose came back from the bathroom. She looked sad and upset.
"we have to go"
"why what happened Rose?"
"I got the Devils curse"
"the what?"
"I got my period"
"why did you just call it the Devils curse?" Lianna said jokingly
"its just what my mom calls it you know how old people can be"
"alright well its not we cant go its just that I dont know where Beck is"
"well is the car gone?"
"No its still here"
"well hay I brought my car I can take you girls home"
"ok thank you, baby"
"no problem dear"
"ew, lets just go"
Lianna didn't actually mean it when she said that she actually was the one who was the most romantic out of the two in the group. The girls gave Beck a text saying that they were leaving, he didn't respond until 30 minutes after Rose sent the text. Apparently a guy hit up his phone saying to come to the park for something but Beck never told Rose what that something was.
They drove home to Roses house so she could change really quick and Lianna came in with her while Nick stayed in the car. While the girls went upstairs to Roses room to talk to her while she changed in her closet. Lianna sat there on her bed thinking about what Nick said to her and the question in her head "should I tell her" "should I not tell her maybe it wasnt that big of a deal". It kept her quiet till Rose came out of the closet to see a worried face on Lianna.
"is everything ok Lianna?"
"ya everything is fine im just thinking about my parents splitting"
"ya you wanna talk about that I understand if you didn't want to talk about it in front of Nick or Beck but its me we have known one another since birth"
"ok, Ill try to make it quick dont wanna keep Nick waiting, but my father cheated on my mother and when she found out they got into this huge fight one thing led to another and my father slapped my mom across the face.
"oh my god Lianna im so sorry how are things at home now?"
"not too great I mean I love that I can wear what I want now but other than that everything the same I actually think that my dad is starting to be mean to me now since he no longer can to my mom"
"you wanna stay the night with me?"
"I dont know if my father would want me too my father is hosting a very important ball tomorrow"
"well lets ask, call him"
"ook, *ring* *ring* hello dad I was wondering if I can sleep over at Roses tonight, Ill make sure I get to the ball in time dad I promise"
"huhhh... fine just get your ass back here three hours before the ball starts which is at Five O'clock"
"ok bye"
"bye"
"he said I can sleep over I just need to be home three hours early"
"why three hours?"
"well I need to take a shower, get ready, and my dad wants me to make a speech so and thats gonna take a good hour"
"ok well lets get this sleepover started"
"wait! what about Nick!"
"shit! Ill text him to come in we can hang out which will give you guys some time to get to know one another."
After Nick left the girls stayed up till two O'clock in the morning watching horror movies and playing games and binge watching TV shows she fell dead asleep until the sun rose the next day. It was eight O'clock by the time they woke up and the breakfast was hot and ready on the table.
