Over the next few weeks I guess you can say I started going through some changes. My grades began to fall, I stopped talking to JT, Liberty, and Toby (kinda got tired of them looking at me like I was about to snap), and I quit S.I.T.E. Manny and I were still cool, so I guess I hadn't changed completely.
School was HELL. Everyone kept staring at me like I was crazy. Plus, the whispers. "She's the one he tried to kill"; "Wow that's her". It was really getting to me. About the only emotion I was feeling was annoyance, other than that it was like my feelings were on mute. And to top off my super sucky life one special person kept watching me. I mean doesn't he have a life and why did he have to be so creepy.
This next part was a mistake. I could have just let it go, let him stare at me, but I guess I'm stupid. So being the dumbass I am I walked up to him when he was by his car with all his friends and of course Alex. I did mention I was stupid right.
"What the HELL is your problem?"
"Hey Sprout, so what have I done now? Injured a tree, stepped on a flower? What's your damage?" He said in his overly smug tone. God I wanted to slap him at that moment.
"Hold up a minute! What the hell are you doing coming over to us, CauseGirl in the first place?" Of course Alex had to put her two cents in it, but I wasn't in the mood for her or wasting my time giving her an answer.
"You know perfectly WELL what I'm talking about!"
"Excuse me you holier-than-thou bitch. I know you didn't just ignore me!" Alex just doesn't know when to quit. Okay she was getting to me and lets just say I snapped… a little.
"Oh SHUT THE HELL UP! I'm not talking to you, I'm talking to your creepy boyfriend here who thinks it's his personal job to stalk me every waking moment I spend in the fucking place!"
I guess what I said surprised her or embarrassed her cause she just looked at me. No punches, no yelling, just a look. Weird isn't it. Alex "beat your ass in a second" Nuñez just looked at me. So, I went back to my objective.
"So… Jay…aren't you gonna say something." He just looked at me like I had two head and then what really pissed me off is when made that STUPID SMIRK.
"No" It was that simple. He just said no, got in his car and drove away.
It took me a minute to notice that Alex didn't go with him. She was still standing there looking at me. I started to get nervous, so I just took at deep breath and said the first thing that came to my mind.
"Why are you still here?" She was still just looking at me not saying a word. Can you say weird?! So I turned to walk away. To bad at the precise moment she found her voice.
"Wait! What you said Jay was doing is that true or are you just trying to piss me off."
"Yeah…I mean no… I mean the Jay thing is true." Then she said something that kinda boggled me.
"What's wrong with you?" What was that supposed mean?
"What?!"
"I mean you walk around this place like a fucking zombie. Do you really expect nobody to notice? I mean come on, I may not like you but damn even I've notice your less then perfectness lately."
I was completely thrown. Not even Manny noticed that and she's supposed to be my best friend. Snake, my mom, no one. Yet, somehow ALEX, who happens to hate me noticed.
"I don't know."
I guess she was done talking because she began to walk away, but turned to me and said eight words that weirdly enough I found comforting. Bad thing is…I shouldn't have.
"By the way, he isn't my boyfriend anymore."
