Chapter 10: Blondie

She was leaning on her car with her leg crossed over to the other one. Played around with the car key, swirling it in different directions, her smile was incomparable to any other thing.

Her forest-green eyes couldn’t be any brighter than this moment

She was wearing an off-shoulder top which was loose at the shoulder end letting out some of her neck line now, she was stunning.

Her hair was fair and pale yellow, the underneath has a brownish pigment.

She was looking so different but in a more beautiful way.

“Hey miss, are you gonna stand there staring, or you’re coming in”?

Her voice brought me out of my trance, cause for a moment I thought this was all a dream, good thing it isn’t.

“Hey,” I said smiling at her as I was about using the seat belt, she always makes fun of me about being all too wary on road safety and the rest of the stuff,

“You can go give the credits to my dad”, as always, my reply.

“You looking...uhm,.. You, look ... Why am I mumbling, why is speaking so difficult now, I could hardly say a word correctly without stuttering life a baby learning how to say her first word,

“You look what?” She asked turning on the ignition switch, but instead I was the one being turned on. With her so close to me like this I can swear it that am total making full of myself, yeah, I always do, always damn..

“Actually, you know, the hair? It really looks pretty on you,I.. mean, it’s suits you perfectly. Curses!!!, Betty can you even hear yourself, you're sounding like shit, that's all I could think of me right this moment.

She gave me a warm smile, those smiles..... “you know what,you adorable when you acting so dumb , I mean, look at you now struggling to say just one word”

She was laughing this time and I just couldn’t help but facepalm, gosh! “You know you being mean”? I said in between question, but I wasn’t looking at her, I was looking outside the window as we drove to Lex house to pick her up.

The silly girl loves being an early bird, I think she will prefer the idea of driving with us instead to turnt me. but honestly speaking now she will take it upon her self to make my life a living nightmare, owing to the fact I already let her in to my secret, was I under the influence of something or hypnotized.. Now I’m sure my life will never remain the same, oh did I forget to mention that she is gonna turn me into her puppet, and play me like a chess, Good thing betty”! Wow!.

“What’s up!! Love birr..... lovelies, hey Betty you good?, woah.. Ann you looking so.... mehhn am short of words, you dyed your hair? They are gorgeous.”

“ No this is my real hair, I just felt like going natural,” Ann uttered still smiling from ear to ear. Don’t she get tired doing that, smiling.

Lex was so freaking lucky that she couldn’t complete the last word she was about to yell out.. like what exactly did she mean by love birds...., I wish I could just kill this moment, well I guess may not now, I won’t want Ann to see me doing that, so I will leave it for later

.

It’s time for the second lecture of the day, but the English teacher, Mrs Brooklyn is nowhere to be seen in class so if am guessing right, we’re having a free time, “I’m so pressed right now,I need to use the bathroom”, I said to Lex who has been talking nonstop and nonsense,

“Okay, be back quickly”

What..?

“Or what?, I asked looking at her as she raises her brow to me. Ahhhh I hate this girllll.

“Haha I love you”,

She said getting on my nerves even more,

I opened the door to one of the cubicle... “oh gosh”! Shutting it close immediately.

I’m really sorry, I.. I.. should have knocked, I’m so sorry, but I promise I didn’t see anything” I said facepalming my self and closing my eyes,

Just trying to make sure I didn’t see anything, okay, am really lying now,

I did saw something, which I can’t unseen, it was Veronica lodgers and Susanna Lopez the school cheerleaders, they were making out, omg! I did see something..oops, they were making out at the bathroom, I shouldn’t have ruined their beautiful moment,

And now am not coming out of bathroom either, I mean.. who am I kidding, they’re definitely aware that I saw them, but I really wished I didn’t, though they were so cute, the thought of them made I wanna think about the the green eyes girl,

Okay focus Betty, it’s time to put on my big girl pants and walk outta here I don’t mind if the two lesbian girls are still out there,

Uhmm.. surprisingly the cost is clear, there’s no one here, at least no one that looks like them.

I headed off to the hall way to get my book for the next class, I opened my locker grapes my book as turned to leave ... “ oh my!!”

We’re so sorry for frightening you that way,”

What are they doing here, they are never the type to want to talk with me ... I mean .. wait a sec, am I gonna be kidnapped or something, threatened? No just be calm betty, we all know you’re a chicken but don’t make it more obvious right this very moment.

“You’re Elizabeth Ainsley right”?”yeah” I answered trying not to get any more nervous, the blonde girl asked with a smile on her face, she was pretty... but no more than my girl, my girl?.. well, soon.

She reached out her hand for me to shake and I took it and smiled back at her, the other one was just so calm and watching us both like she was being entertained.

She gave me a hey- smile” and said her name was Susanna Lopez,

She wasn’t in the same class with Veronica,cause Veronica was in my class.. but they mostly spend much of the time at practicing dance and whatever cheerleaders do.

They were really cute together,more like made for each other cause I could feel it in the they look and talk to each other before talking to me... like for some seconds they forgot I was really standing there, yeah, just standing there with my book lying helpless on my chest, staring at them both.

“Oh! I’m sorry for keeping you waiting for so long here, we just don’t know how to say this to you, you know... about earlier at the bathroom, you see.. liz, Susanna and I have been dating for about a year now secretly, yeah I know it’s suffocating and all that but we just can’t do anything about it cause her mum, the principal.”

“Ohhhh the principal? I asked in awe, and am sure they can really see the surprise in my face cause goddamn it am I even in this school?

“She will be mad furious if she ever gets to hear that her daughter is” this time she was looking down, and Susanna just held her hand intertwined in hers and gave her a reassuring smile,the one that says don’t worry everything will be fine,

I just couldn’t help but got so emotional, this too are really so cute,

“I’m so I love with her and I don’t really wanna care what my mum will say about it but she doesn’t feel safe at all she kept worry that my mum will disown me or something, which I won’t give a damn about so long as I have her.”

Now I understand, I’m at the edge of seeing a real life Romeo and Juliet. I know I’ve said this a lot of times but they are really so adorable.

“Hey girls”, I stated trying to sound as comforting and lovely as I could ever think of, God I hate when people get so emotional or cry cause I end up acting like a dumb ass, I have zero idea of what I’m to say or do. Okay as the spirit leads..

“Everything is okay”, I continued, “ you guys are really so adorable I.. mean .. yeah, I smiled sheepishly at them and how ridiculous I’m probably sounding now, can this cup just pass me by.. Fast forward to when this part has needed, Well, that’s not possible.

It was just the three of us at the hall way, there wasn’t much people roaming around, I guess it’s lunch time now,

“Your secret is safe with me”, I said almost a whisper and with a wink, I hugged them both and smiled, and they just did the same and waved goodbye.

“See you sometime, they both chuckle at the same time” as they passed through the exit door leading to the basketball court.

I just stood there smiling with my lips wide broad.

“What was that”!

Damnit can’t today not be any worser than earlier, why does everyone keep sneaking up on me like that.

I watched Lex face for some glue of what next will come out of that noisy mouth of hers, oh she must have seen those two love birds hugged me earlier.

“What was what”... I asked her looking around like I have no idea of what she’s saying,

“Did I just see that bitch hug you, no those two bitches” her jaw was still dropping,

“No, Lex you saw nothing,”

I think you too stressed from talking a lot and doing a lot of catfishing, that you’re now being delusional.

“Delusional!?”... how is that even possible? Betty I saw them hug you,just before exiting through that door, she said pointing out the door.

“No, you saw nothing”. I said snappily walking out on her.

I know well enough she saw me cause I actually saw her in my peripheral view, thank goodness that the two gay girls didn’t.

I love it when the girl gets angry and try to prove her self right, you should see her face now as she kept yelling at my back nonstop.

“Hey Ann, What’s that you having for lunch, I’m so hungry” rubbing my stomach to emphasize on the hunger,

“Here, seat” she said gesturing at an empty seat close to her for me to seat, but I will prefer seating opposite her so that I could easily look at her face, and watch her make all those funny gestures she makes with her hand and the way she swirly’s her pineapple juice, but on the other hand if an to seat close to her, she will touch my hands or hair every now and then, I noticed it, she’s a touch type, sometimes she just holds your hand and forget that she is really holding you. Well I think the odds are in my favour, cause I won’t mind holding her forever.

“No, No, No... Betty that’s my seat, you can have that one,”Lexi said, “okay, if you say so”

I moved in to my initial spot, that normally sat.

Ann was just seated there, shook her head and was mumbling something and smiling so big this time. “ you two act like kids in pre-school”, still laughing.

I’m sure my best friend had wished she was a witch, she would have choke me to death, or rather read my mind to k ow what I was hiding from her, but even though I still think she’s still a witch haha just haven’t activated her powers yet.

I looked at her and she just stare daggers at me looking away.

“Okay, so will you someone tell me what’s wrong”, Ann uttered looking from Lex to me, it would have been much better if it was just me .. I chuckled at the thought, not realizing they’re both watching me with those hungry eyes, Lex own is more hungrier,

“What?, you both won’t be looking at me that way all day?”

“Ann can you please ask her what she’s hiding, she knows something and she isn’t telling us,”

“Uhm... as instructed, please betty what is it that you ain’t telling us?,”

I know very well that she’s trying her very best to act serious, I have never seen her serious... I think she’s gonna look great tho.

“Nothing, there’s nothing to hide,I’m hiding nothing from you neither you,I said pointing at Lex.

“So can I have my lunch in peace now”?

“Oh hey, you must be the new girl right,

A familiar voice said.

We all just looked up at same time meeting the gaze of two girls, that seem to be Warri g same kind of clothes, yeah.. the two girls that I just meet making out, that I ended up becoming friends with and admire their love story.

One is head of the cheerleaders, and the other also the principal daughter.

“We just came to know if you will be interested in joining us, we will really appreciate if you do consider it, ..

“Okay, that’s pretty cool, mmm I will think about it” Ann said after making a thinking face.

“Okay, then goodbye, and then turned back immediately making an “O” face like they just forgot something

We will be hosting this years welcome party for the new student and you know.. new year at Veronica’s, please we both will love to see you girls around”. the blonde girl stated and gave a nice smile before waving at us.

We watched them as they walked out of sight, and Lex turned those killer eyes on me, I just sighed and took a bite of my sandwich cause I won’t want to say anything, not now.

Ann just sat and watch us both.

“You see what am talking about,these girls never noticed us, i mean and now they’re personally inviting us to their party,” I could hear her scoff from all that,

“ I know something is really wrong”.

This time it was Ann who turned her gaze on me, I just couldn’t resist those green-eyes, I just couldn’t look away just as I did with Lex, what’s she doing to me?.

“.... Betty, can you hear me,”?

“Fuck!”, for how long have I been staring at her, I didn’t even get to hear her question,

“You won’t mind letting us in to something we don’t know about”

her voice was so relaxing and why will one say no to that.

“Okay, I will tell you guys all I know, I could see Lex face light up with smile, now she’s laughing like a moron, “Foolish girl” I mumbled under my breath,

“But on our way home,o candy tell you guys now.”

“Why? Why not now,” Lex asked looking g like someone that has been rejected from a proposal.

“Because it was supposed to be a secret” I said rolling my eyes at her,

She was cut of by Ann from saying anything else,

“Okay, I think we can go with that since she has agreed to tell is at least,”

She was sounding a bit serious this time, I just don’t wan her to think am hiding something from her, so am definitely going to tell them about the two lesbian lovers, that just became my friend, not just that two most influential kids in school, cause I know that Veronica lodgers parents are stinging rich.

Mmm well, I bet it’s not a bad thing being friends with them I could also learn a lot about this lesbian thing cause I’m just getting use to it and it’s so exciting, well at least for me.
