"Man, where were you last night?" Drew asked, walking with Paul as they entered the school.
"Idiot." Paul grunted, while looking at his cousin.
Drew glared at him, and kept his glare until Paul sighed and shook his head at him.
"You sure are forgetful." Paul stated grumpily, and then paused. "I went to dinner with Leaf, ring a bell?" he smirked, while walking ahead. Knowing Drew will catch up with a funny reaction.
Drew's eyes widen in disbelief, and he sped up his pace to catch up with Paul, "What? Why?!" He asked, in a whiney tone.
Paul grunted "Hn" annoyingly, and raised an eyebrow at his cousin. Could he be any denser? Paul thought angrily to himself.
"I want to get to know her, she is troublesome's best friend after all, and I actually want to be friends with the girl my cousin likes as well." He stated bluntly, and turned to Drew with a knowing smirk plastered on his face.
Drew narrowed his eyes at Paul. "How did you find out?" He asked in disbelief. Drew had kept this a secret, and had not told a soul about this. Because even he wasn't sure of his own feelings. He felt conflicted.
Paul chuckled, "You just told me." He grunted, while Drew glared at him again.
Paul rolled his eyes at his pathetic cousin, "And your beautiful green eyes, just tell your soul." He states his voice dripping with sarcasm.
Drew smirked, and flipped his hair confidently. "You really think so?" He spoke mocking a girl voice.
Paul growled and pushed Drew roughly almost making him face plant.
Drew started laughing hard, and paused to catch his breath. He then had a contemplating look on his face, "You didn't tell her, did you?" He asked, glancing at Paul nervously.
Paul rolled his eyes again, "Why would I do that, it's not like I care or anything." He grumbled, reassuring his cousin. He looked at Drew, as Drew sighed in relief. There was a brief silence for a bit. Not awkward, but comforting. Drew was obviously waiting for Paul to spill the details about what happened last night.
He sighed before grabbing Drew roughly and dragging him through the hallways and stopping near his locker. Paul glanced around before speaking, "Leaf's different." He paused, "I don't know if it's good or bad, because anything can happen." He grunted out.
Drew gave him a confused look, "What do you mean by that?" he asked curiously.
Paul sighed in aggravation, this why he hated getting involved with people. All they deal with is emotions, it's sickening to him. "Leaf's different, different from May…" Paul finally said, while Drew frowned at his answer. Paul went on "I guess it can be a good thing, but it can also be a very bad thing to."
Paul remembered his conversation with Leaf yesterday about how she wasn't going to be on the sidelines if May did anything to hurt Gary. "You know her, right?" He asked his dense cousin, slightly annoyed by this whole situation. Jeez, can a guy just live his life, be with his girlfriend, and be in peace? Paul thought, tiredly.
Soon Drew's blank expression, trying to put together what Paul was saying turned into a grin forming on his face. He nodded his head at him.
"Why didn't you tell him?" Dawn asked me, grabbing one of my shoulders. "He annoyed me for 3 hours on the phone." She whined shaking me a bit. "I had to keep changing topics, from May, to school, to underwear." She growled, while pouting and crossing her arms like the little kid she can be.
I laughed at her childish antics, "Aw, how cute. You guys bonded." I said with a sarcastic sweet tone. "You know, I told him, right? He just didn't want to believe me." I shrugged my shoulders.
Dawn nodded acknowledging what Leaf had said, "What do you think is going to happen with Gary and May now?" She thought out loud as she took a seat next to me in class.
"I don't know." I sighed, sadly. I put my hands under my chin leaning on my hand. "Probably up to May." I said in disappointment.
Gary sat down for lunch at their usual table, slamming his tray quickly and quite frankly obnoxiously on the table. "Where's Leaf?" He asked frowning.
Dawn gave him an incredulous look, and raised her eyebrow at him, while taking a bite of her sandwich. "Hi Dawn, How is your day going? Fine thanks for asking." She stated sarcastically with a mouthful of her sandwich.
Gary rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly, and smiled sheepishly at her. "Sorry." He paused, waiting for Dawn to answer his question.
Dawn rolled her eyes at him, "I think she is at the library." She says while shrugging her shoulders.
"Oh." Gary stated while looking down at his tray with a far off look, "What's she doing there?" He asked curiously.
Dawn sighed, what else do you do at a library? She thought to herself in aggravation. Oh, man. I'm becoming mean, damn you, you stupid plum head for rubbing off on me. She shook of the thought, before getting into a mental war with herself.
"She's cramming for a test tomorrow." Dawn answered, wiping her fingers with a tissue. Glancing at Gary's tray and noticing something. "Isn't that Leaf's favorite cookie?" She questioned him.
Gary frowned looking at it as well. "Yeah, since she wasn't here yet. I thought I'd buy the last one in case she is too late, but I guess she isn't going to come." He spoke, sounding very disappointed about it.
Dawn sighed, when will he ever get a clue. She thought sadly. She then shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly "Go to the library then stupid." Dawn said, looking at him with a small smirk on her face, and grabbing her water bottle.
I was sitting in the quietest corner of the library, going through my notes and reading my textbook over and over again.
I sighed, jotting some more notes down. I rested my head on the table feeling exhausted. Suddenly, I felt someone's presence. I quickly lifted my head and turned around. "Oh, it's you." I smiled genuinely.
Drew chuckled, looking at me. It was kind of cute, the way he laughed. I liked the sound of it. Oh man, what am I thinking?!
"You seem to be working hard." He finally said, taking a seat next to me.
"Of course." I laughed softly. Then, I looked at the book in his hand. "What's that?" I questioned, my curiosity getting the best of me.
He looked at the book that he was holding. "Oh this? I was just looking around and it caught my attention." He answered me bluntly.
I squinted my eyes at him in suspicion. "You just didn't want to go to lunch, right?" I asked, laughing with a smirk forming its way onto my face.
Drew frowned in defeat, "I can't lie that well, Paul tells me all the time." He admitted truthfully. "How did you know?" He put his face closer to mine with a grin on his face.
"Oh please," I rolled my eyes, laughing softly. "Anyone who looks into your pretty green eyes knows when you are lying or not, so Paul is right on that." I spoke while, nudging him playfully.
Gary walked into the library, knowing exactly where Leaf was. He was getting excited, walking up to the table to see her. But his face quickly fell as he was two feet away, he noticed Leaf and Drew together. He clenched his fists together, and his teeth in anger as he unwillingly approached the table.
"Leaf…" He growls angrily.
"Hey!" She looks up at him with a smile on her face. "What's up?" She asks him, happy to see him.
Gary sighed, how can he be mad at a beautiful smile like that? "I heard you haven't eaten lunch yet…" He faked a smile. "I got the last cookie for you, since it's your favorite." He continued to fake a smile, not really happy that all she does lately is hangout with Drew…
"Thanks. But you didn't have to bother." She looked at him with a sincere smile, which he couldn't really focus on.
He gave Drew a short sharp glare and looked back at Leaf with a softer but hurt glance on his face. "I guess so." He answered bitterly, leaving the cookie on the table. "Smell ya later Leafy." He said, sadly and quickly left avoiding all eye contact with her. Why in the hell do I feel this way? It's like this aching pain in my chest. Gary thought, shaking his head.
"I don't think he likes me." Drew said, trying to lighten the atmosphere, since that was pretty tense.
I looked at Drew with a disappointed look. "Did you see how he acted?" I frowned, while glancing back at the spot where Gary once was.
"Leafy," He spoke softly, putting his arm around me. "He was acting like that because of me, not you." He tried to explain to me.
I sighed softly, "He's changing." I said resting my head on Drew's shoulder comfortably.
Gary was pissed off still, and hurt. He doesn't know why he feels this way. But he does not like it one bit.
"Gary," May called out as his shoulder accidently bumped into hers. Wow, he was so mad he didn't even see her.
He looked at her. "May…" He murmured. All of his anger suddenly disappearing as he stared at her.
She smiled at him, softly. "I have something to ask you." She spoke nervously.
"Sure." He said, while giving her a reassuring smile.
The Next Day
"Bullshit!" I yelled angry. I couldn't believe what Dawn had just told me. We were sitting in the school auditorium. My voice echoed since we were the only two there.
Dawn nodded sadly, "I heard it from a couple of girls during French." She said calmly. She composed herself knowing that if she also lost it no one would control me.
I ran my fingers through my hair, "What the actual fuck?" I said out loud. "May loves Drew, why is Gary suddenly her boyfriend?!" I yelled in frustration.
Dawn looked at me with concern. "Maybe she's beginning to like Gary." She tries to console me, but that is not fucking working. I don't even know what to feel, I'm pissed, and angry, and jealous, hurt, and just want to punch something, or someone in the face right now.
I was honestly so frustrated with everything. I was honestly starting to believe that love was somehow real, but with what May had done. I was confused. "Maybe she is, but maybe she's going to hurt him too." I spoke quickly, while grabbing my stuff and rushing out.
I walked into the music room. I knew that's where May would be in the last class periods.
I slammed the door behind myself, "May, what are you trying to do?!" I screamed at her, my voice probably at like a 10.
"What?" May stood up from the chair she was sitting on, looking at me in confusion.
As I was beginning to speak, I realized another figure stand up. My eyes widened a bit and I stared at him, so many emotions running through me.
Gary stood there behind the piano. "Leaf…" He said, staring right at me.
I scoffed at him, "What the hell, Gary?" I yelled in frustration. "You know she just got of a relationship with Drew. Why—" I was saying, before I got rudely interrupted.
"Leaf, just stop it! Before you say anything inappropriate, or anything to piss me off." He growled angrily at me.
I looked at my 'so called best friend' in disbelief. Was I hearing him correctly? I knew that Gary liked May a lot, and always wanted to be with her, but I definitely know that May doesn't feel the way Gary feels for her. May doesn't feel what I feel for him.
My eyes starting watering up, but I refuse to cry. I absolutely refuse too. "This whole relationship doesn't even make sense!" I screamed at him.
May stared at the two of them. Gary stood behind the piano at the end of the room. While Leaf stood near the door. They were both glaring daggers at each other. May was getting worried, standing a few inches away from Gary. "Gary…" She said softly, trying to calm him down, from doing something he might regret.
Gary ignored May's plead for him to lower his voice. "Just because you don't believe in these kinds of things doesn't mean they're not real." Gary went on with his words that knocked Leaf down one by one. "Maybe if you did like someone or if you were in relationship, you would understand." He spat harshly at her.
Leaf's eyes widen, by what he said. She is trying her best not cry in front of him. "You're going to get hurt." She said with a crack in her voice, still glaring at Gary. She wasn't as mad at May then she was at Gary. Leaf quickly turned away, tears streaming down her face as she quickly left the music room.
