Phone conversation
'Yo Emmy, are you done?'
'Ya I am'
'Am outside'
'OK I will be there'
Oml geez, I slept for so long its 7:28 am.
The truth is am just from waking up now I have to hurry up and meet Jake in ten mins shower.
Finally am done showering and dressing up.
Jeeez its 7:40 am and looks like there are 3 missed calls 2 from Mason and one from Jake.
Left the house and reached the parking lot.
"How come you only called once I thought I would find five missed calls?" I wondered.
"Because I am now used to you waking up late," he started the car.
"So are you ready for summer, the best holiday," I asked.
"Yes, I am going to disturb you a lot," he made a right turn and in just a few minutes we had reached school.
We all met and entered school together and like any other person, we started talking about people.
"Guys, did you hear what that girl Veronica, the one who came a few months ago, did?" Taky said looking at us.
"No, tell us, what did she do," Rae replied thirsty for gossip.
"Apparently she broke up with Jace on a text and now she is dating her best friend's boyfriend who is also Jace's best friend," everyone's face got that look that everyone gets when they get disgusted.
Like everyone else in this world, we talk about people.
"Wait the way I see you guys talking about another person makes me scared, by the way, do you guys also talk about me?" We all looked at each other wondering whether we should tell him the truth.
"Of course we talk about you,
We also know that you talk about us and that you don't have to pretend because we also know you talk about us," Jake looked away smiling as if caught red-handed.
We all walked and we split up one by one going to the classes until it was just me and Taky.
"Emmy I need to ask you a question," she stopped me before we could go any farther.
"Go on," I looked at her.
"Do you think Jake can ever date me?" She looked at me but I truly had no answer.
During my lesson, there was only one thing in my mind.
I really don't know if Jake can date Taky because on one hand, he is very annoying but on the other, he seems like he can but also the problem is they never talk but at least at times they can get along very well.
I saw a text from Taky
'Please come to my place it is very urgent'
I slid my phone down the pocket letting out a huge breath. In my head, I knew what was going to happen and I knew anything she was going to talk about might end up turning dramatic in some way or another.
''Guys I need help, do you think Jake will like me the way I am?'' We all stared at Taky looking for an answer to give her.
''Me I actually don't know, even though I talk to him a lot it is hard for a boy to open up to a girl however close they are,"
"OK thanks for that helpful long reasoning statement which didn't make sense," Taky rolled her eyes as she spat out her sarcasm.
"Rae you are an expert what should I do?" She looked over to meet Rae's eyes.
She smiled and looked away shyly,
"I don't know because it's hard to give advice but I can tell you that you should try and talk to him more than usual," she spoke looking directly into Taky's eyes trying to get into her head.
"Guys I had better go home," I stood up picking up my stuff.
"See you bitch," Rae waved.
I smiled back and waved back.
The journey to my home was tiresome and all I could think of was my comfy bed and blanket.
So it's already Sunday and I had totally forgotten about my assignment and my exam that is next week and I am going to sit down and finish it no matter what.
I prepared everything I needed that was music, snacks, sour worms, and books. Set up a playlist, put my phone on airplane mode so that I don't receive any calls from my friends, picked up my pen that teleported me on a boring journey for one hour.
I heard a small sound with the earphones when I paused the music there was nothing but when I resumed it continued.
This is so frustrating can't I have peace for a day.
I walked up the door and opened with an irritated face.
"Jake what are you doing here, "I asked with a sarcastic smile placed on my face.
"I couldn't reach your phone so I came to tell you what I wanted to tell you," he put on an adorable smile.
"What did you want to tell that made you disturb my boring day," I pretended to act nice.
"Tonight we are going to a bar and wanted you to come," he said eating some of my sour worms.
"Leave my worms alone," I hit his back lightly but he exaggerated lying on the floor.
"And also no I am not going with you guys to the bar, do you know how much I have to study we have our exams tomorrow and I can go there any other time, "I explained hoping he understood everything I had just said.
"Ooook," he said making it sound so long, "I am going to stay and read with you".
"Why would you do that?"I inquired.
"Just take it as supervision," he made a weird smile that made me giggle a bit.
"But you shouldn't distract me at all," I turned on my serious face, "what are you going to read?".
"My texts," he stated as if it was that obvious.
"Wait did you think I was going to actually read," he laughed making me feel as if I was dumb.
Time passed by and it was almost getting dark. I felt bad for blowing him off. He sat there the whole entire day for me and now he is busy sleeping.
I got up and put on a hoodie to go and buy some drinks and of course some snacks because I was going low on food, not on the way I eat as if it's the only thing that I know how to do.
Shopping wasn't that hectic although I hate it because every time I go there I set my eyes on something that I wish I had money to buy.
Surprisingly when I went back to my apartment I found Jake still asleep. His pink plump lips stuck together his eyes shut like that of a baby having a sweet dream.
I organized everything and put it where it was meant to be.
"Jaaaaakkkkeee," I screamed as loud as I could, "wake up your lazy ass,".
He groaned squinting his eyes as hard as he could.
"Why are you waking me up," he cried.
"Well I went out and bought you some drinks," I said revealing them from the paper bag.
"Awww that's so sweet of you, you felt bad that you blew me off," he smiled showing his white sparkling teeth and blazing beaming skin that was lighting up the room. His green eyes looked down at me as if wondering what I was thinking.
I handed him a beer and sat with him. "So what should we do," I asked sipping on my beer.
"Why are you asking me?" he asked, "isn't this your house?"
"We can watch a movie maybe, tag" I suggested.
"I haven't had of it, in what genre does it fall," he asked.
"It's a comedy and if I tell you I might end up spoiling," I laughed watching him trying to understand the movie.
The movie ended and it looked like Jake was tired of laughing.
"You should go it's coming to midnight," I yawned out the words.
"What's the rush I literally stay next to you," he smirked with a wink along.
"Stop your games I need to sleep," I rubbed my eyes and opened them wide.
"Ok! It was nice hanging out with you," he smiled picking up his jacket and heading towards the door.
I have always had mixed feelings towards the last exam that heads to summer.
