“You really are crazy, Liv.” Paige told me seriously.
How is she my friend if she’s just now learning about that common fact?!
“I know, Paige.” I rolled my eyes.
“No, you seriously are mad!” She spoke in a firmer tone.
Is she okay?
“I never disagreed with that.” I shrugged.
“Why don’t you understand, Liv?! This is a really really really bad idea!” She exclaimed.
She’s telling me!
“You are a… A broccoli!” I said just as I put the phone to my ear.“And that’s exactly why she won’t go out with you.” Paige shouted through the door.“Well, hello to you too.” Hunter’s voice came through the phone.Wanna know how I’m talking to him?Well, let’s just say that talking to someone in your bathroom is not really the best way to have a conversation…I had to run to my bathroom and lock the door so that I could answer the phone while Paige kept asking me to open the door or to dump him.This is why it’s not exactly ideal…
“Okay, something is definitely wrong.” Hunter sighed as he left the slice of pizza in his hands and folded his arms as he looked at me.Crappy crabby!This is just proving my theory! He really does know how to read minds!Don’t be ridiculous! If he knew how to read minds, he would have known that you don’t actually want to be on this date with him!Hmm… That’s true…“Why would you say that, Hun?” I asked. “I swear that I am Olivia! Not her evil twin Jolly!” I told him seriously.“I know that, Olivia.” He huffed. “You don’t really have an evil
“I hate you!” I scowled as I sat down next to my brother on the couch with the bowl of popcorn in my hands. “Hey! It’s not like only I get to have my friends over! You can invite Hunter.” He shrugged. “Only Hunter doesn’t want anything to do with me.” I rolled my eyes. That stupid peanut! “What happened?” My brother frowned as he turned to look at me, turning the volume of the TV down. “Did he say something?” He asked. So now he’s interested in my life?! My brother’s a peanut too! And peanuts are bad. They spoil the fun of the chocolates and cakes and anything they are added
I kept my eyes trained on Kaylee as she laughed with her friends while they all ate their salads. She’s not even real! Real people eat real food like Burgers, fries and gummy bears! She’s not real! Who the hell even eats veggies willingly?! Not even aliens commit that sort of crime! Eww! Veggies… I need my gummy bears! “Why are you glaring at my girlfriend?” Ryan asked me with a small frown on his handsome face. He might or might not be a manipulative two-faced liar but he’s still handsome…
“Whatcha doing?” I chirped as I grinned up at him. “Avoiding you.” He told me bluntly. Wow! “Thanks for being so kind, Hun!” I smiled sarcastically before rolling my eyes at him. “What are you doing, Olivia?” He sighed as he turned to look at me. Umm… Existing? “I just came here to see if you’re over me yet.” I told him honestly. “I still wanna kiss you. Does that answer your question?” He raised an eyebrow at me, crossing his arms. Why is he being so sassy? Aren’t you supposed to be sweet to the person you have a crush on?
“Thanks for this. If it wasn’t for you, I would have had to walk all the way home.” I sighed. I really hate exercise!“You don’t have to thank me, Olivia. It was because of me that you missed the bus home. This is the least I could do.” Hunter smiled at me. The smile on his face hasn’t faded ever since we kissed.It’s almost weird… And it’s starting to freak me out a little… But I can’t deny the fact that he looks a bit nicer with his smile. And his smile is contagious… I bit my lip which was still tingling from the kisses we shared. It was strange. I couldn’t exactly describe what I was feeling but I knew that it wasn’t normal.I still can’t believe that I actually kissed him!In front of the whole school!Talk about PDA…But something strange and indescribable happened today…I wasn’t supposed to feel the way I felt when we were kissing…Hunter has been my friend since we were babies. I shouldn’t have felt tingly because of him. It was supposed to be awkward and downright disg
“That was really awesome what you did yesterday, girl!” Maya cheered. “Thanks!” I grinned at Maya. I’ve got a fan! Be realistic, Liv! The only fan you have is the one attached to the ceiling of your bedroom! That fan is amazing though… And it also knows all my secrets… Sheesh! Distract yourself, Liv! Distract yourself before you start overthinking this! “I have to say, I am impressed by you, kiddo.” Shawn nodded at me. Kiddo?! I’m just a year younger, people!&
“Whatcha doin’ now?” I asked Hunter, trying to hide my huge grin as he shut the door of his locker. “Dropping you home.” He told me as he turned around to look at me. He’s not planning to hang out with me? I bet it’s all Austin’s doing! He must have told Hunter to play some stupid video games with him! That stupid brocooli lover! Note: Kaylee is the broccoli. But Hunter will hang out with me! “That’s boring.” I rolled my eyes. “Anyways, can we go to Papa Joe’s tonight for our date?” I asked him, almost jumping in excitement. Thi
“Have fun, kiddos!” I grinned like an idiot as I waved wildly at them. “I’m still older than you, baby sis!” Austin called out, pretending to be annoyed but the small smile on his face gave him away. Kaylee just couldn’t stop smiling as she waved back at me before she and Tin-Tin got in the car and drove off. They were on their way to their date after so much argument. Kaylee didn’t feel like she deserved it after how she’s treated me in the past few years and Austin wanted to be a good brother after so long and not go out with my bully. Ha! But me being me, I convinced them that they did deserve this.
“Umm… I think I’m ready to talk now.” Kaylee spoke up in a whisper. Why?! This girl really couldn’t have had worse timing! “You should rehearse what you wanna say in your mind first.” I suggested, not even looking at her. “That’s what I’ve been doing till now. I think I’m ready now.” Kaylee replied. Why?! This is a nightmare! “Why don’t you go over it again?” I asked, still not turning to look at her. Just a few more minutes! “I want to talk to you before your br
“So, do you wanna do something?” I asked Hunter as we walked to his car. It was the end of the school day but we still didn’t have any plans for the rest of the day. “I don’t know. Austin was asking me to play some video games with him though.” Hunter shrugged. Gasp! How dare they plan to do something that doesn’t involve me?! I stopped walking, pulling my hand away from Hunter’s as I glared at him. I knew that I was acting like a child but what can anyone do when their stupid brother was trying to steal their boyfriend?! “You’re my boyfriend, Hun. Not Austin’s.” I told him with an angry pout on my fac
“You two have been coming here a lot lately.” Papa Joe commented when he spotted Hunter and I entering the diner. “You’re both friends again?” He smiled. I shook my head as I clung to Hunter’s arm while he was tightly holding my hand. Hunter looked at me with a smile, waiting for me to answer the question. He knows me too well… Well, that and I’ve been eating his ear off on the way here about how excited I am to tell Papa Joe about how Hunter and I are dating now. This is so exciting! Eeeep! “He’s my date tonight, Papa Joe!” I chimed happily, standing on my tiptoes to kiss Hunter’s
“I’m gonna go and get ready now.” I sighed as I got up from the couch. I stretched a little, feeling a bit tired. Me and Austin had been sitting in the same position for hours now. We watched three amazing alien movies one after the other! Now that was awesome! “Where are you going?” My brother frowned. “I have a date with Hunter tonight.” I informed him with a huge smile on my face. The thought of the upcoming date made all the tiredness leave my mind. What the hell is happening to me?! It was like the thought of going out with Hunter
“I missed this.” I sighed as I snuggled next to Hunter. He kissed the top of my head. He’s super comfy! This reminds me why I started calling him ‘Captain Comfy’ when I was seven. Cuddling with him made me feel safe and warm. How did I stay away from this for so long?! “Me too.” I could practically hear the smile in his voice as he rubbed my arm. After the whole scene at school, I thanked Maya and Shawn for standing up for me. They stood up for me in a way no one ever did. They are the kind of people everyone should want to be friends with… Maya just hugged me as I tried to stop my tears
“Kaylee?” I spoke softly as I tapped on her shoulder. She turned around to face me with an annoyed expression on her face. “What the hell do you want?” She asked me in an irritated tone. I wanna ride on a unicorn… But life’s not about what you want. It’s about what the universe thinks would be funny… Stupid universe! “I have something to tell you.” I told her. I glanced at her friends who were looking at me. “If you have a minute, can we talk? Privately?” I asked. I’m being super kind and considerate here! Don’t blow it off!
“Whatcha doin’ now?” I asked Hunter, trying to hide my huge grin as he shut the door of his locker. “Dropping you home.” He told me as he turned around to look at me. He’s not planning to hang out with me? I bet it’s all Austin’s doing! He must have told Hunter to play some stupid video games with him! That stupid brocooli lover! Note: Kaylee is the broccoli. But Hunter will hang out with me! “That’s boring.” I rolled my eyes. “Anyways, can we go to Papa Joe’s tonight for our date?” I asked him, almost jumping in excitement. Thi
