I've realized I'm very impatient.
Standing by Lizzie's locker for 2 minutes, I'm already mad at her for being late.
Calm down Gordo. It's just two minutes.
Except it's not just two minutes.
Every single day Lizzie arrives to her locker in a matter of seconds.
And now, it's been.2 minutes and 30 seconds.
After about 5 minutes, when I finally felt like leaving, Lizzie arrived to her locker. Unfortunately, she arrived with another guy.
Ethan Craft.
I finally thought we were done seeing him once and for all, but no, here he is.
But I shouldn't be worried. Lizzie and I are together, and happy, and deeply in love and nothing could tear us apart. We've been through everything and then some.
"Hey, hun!" Lizzie said.
Hun? Hun? She never calls me hun.
"So, uh, are you ready to go?" I asked.
"Go where?" Lizzie responded.
"Out to eat and then to get some coffee. Remember?"
"Oh, yeah. I'm so sorry, I forgot. But um, yeah, I can't go."
"Why not?"
"Ethan and I have a project to do. We've been putting it off for weeks and its due Monday. I'm sorry. I'm gonna be busy all weekend. But you can try to call me, k?"
"Okay, I guess."
Lizzie placed a small kiss on my lips and walked off with Ethan.
Ethan turned back around and smirked at me. God, do I hate him.
I left a few minutes after Lizzie and Ethan left. I went out through the main entrance and Natalia was sitting on the bench by the flagpole.
"Natalia?" I asked.
"Hey, David. How are you?" She questioned.
"I could be better. How about you?"
"I don't know. I was going to go home but didn't really think it was a good time."
"Well, I'm free. Do you wanna do something?"
"Yeah sure."
"There's this great coffee place called the Digital Bean. Have you been there yet?"
"Nope. And I guess now is the perfect time for you to show me what its like, David."
"I told you, you don't have to call me David."
"I know, but damn, it's just so much fun."
Natalia and I walked to the Digital Bean. We arrived around 4:00 and took a booth in the back.
"So, why didn't you want to go home?" I asked.
"My parents. Sometimes, they get postal and creepy and I can't stand to be around them. You know, sometimes I just want to be alone." She implied.
"But you're here with me?"
"Yeah," she said and she took a sip from her glass, "Some things are just supposed work against the norm."
She smiled and we continued talking for another hour or so when suddenly Lizzie walked in.with Ethan.
