Rome and Sponge-Bob are Friends
"Hey Legolas."
I turn to see Leanna. "Hi," I say. I don't really know what to think of her. I once thought I was in love with her, but a few days later I had NO feelings for her whatsoever. Now she was just...plain Leanna again.
"Emma was giving your stuff away. I didn't think it was right that she was giving away your stuff, so I took it to give to you. If you want them then..."
"Oh my god, thank you!" I exclaim. "Some of those things are really important!"
"Good, well you can just come to my room today and I'll give them to you. They're all in a bag..."
All of the sudden I spot Emma walking this way, from behind Leanna. "Thanks, Leanna," I say. "So, you want to go out with me this weekend?"
I see Emma flinch. Oh, yes, my plan will work perfectly. Emma will realize how much she misses me and when I ask HER back out again, she won't be able to resist. I smile.
"Um, thanks, Legolas. You're cool and everything...but I'm not about to take EMMA'S leftovers."
My mouth drops open a little. Did I just say my plan was working? I am speechless.
"Bye, Legolas. When you want to come by and get your stuff, do so." Leanna walks off and Emma just gives me this 'guess your not all you thought you were, huh?' look. I guess I really don't know how to read girls, cause I could have SWORN Leanna would go out with me. She was being so nice and Leanna isn't nice to just anyone.
All I knew now was I had to get Emma back. I was sure of that.
EMMA'S POV
"Legolas has been trying to talk to you," Talim says. "All after lunch period today!"
"I know," I say stiffly. "I don't think I'm ready to talk to him right now. I mean, come on, he just asked Leanna out, like four hours ago!"
"Yes, but I'm sure he had this plan in his head...a plan to get you back and somehow it involved Leanna. You know he'd never WANT to go out with her!"
I sigh. "Maybe you're right.
"EMMA!" I hear Legolas across the hall.
"Maybe I should go now," I tell Talim, but she grabs my arm.
"You can't run forever. At least talk to the guy," Talim says.
Legolas runs up and Talim slips away. It's quiet for a few minutes. "Would you ever go out with me again?" he says, finally breaking the silence.
Well, sure I want to, but I couldn't just say yes so easily, could I? "I don't know, Legolas," I say uneasily. "It all depends on you."
"Depends on me?" Legolas asks. "What do I have to do?"
"You have to stop playing around with me, Legolas. You just asked Leanna out and I'm wondering if you were trying to make me jealous? In order for you and me to go out again, we have to be at least friends. Friends don't try to make other friends jealous," I say.
He seems to understand cause he nods and then looks down at his feet. He's so cute when he's sad, but that wont change anything. He's been acting like a real jerk lately.
"Emma, are you coming already?" I turn on my heel and see Aragorn. "The Wizard Cup is closing early today."
"I'm coming!" I shout back. I turn again to Legolas who is looking confused. "Bye, Legolas."
Legolas POV
Emma hasn't hung out with Aragorn in a WHILE. Now she was going all by HERSELF? With no one there? That wasn't right, was it? She never did that with other guys when we were going out.
'Maybe I should follow them,' I thought. 'No, if I got caught, she'd hate me forever.'
Rome's POV
I wrap my arm around Kali and cuddle up to her on the couch as we watch some TV. I glance over at her. "What's better than being with the hottest girl and watching Sponge-Bob?"
"Being with the hottest girl and watching something else...anything else!!!" Kali says as she takes the remote control away.
I groan. "Don't take away my sponge-bob! He's my friend!"
She looks at me as if I'm mental. I guess she has a reason to look at me like that. Saying a cartoon character is your friend is a little...weird. "Fine, watch something else if you HAVE to."
"I have to," she says.
The phone rings, but I decide not to answer it. Kali answers it instead. "Hello...your brother's not here."
"Who is it?" I ask.
"Yea, well Rome is here," Kali says in the phone. She hands it to me. "It's Emma." I can tell Kali isn't very happy. I don't think she ever really liked Emma except for like one week when she had suggested that Elise could give us some Greenwings tickets.
"Hey, Emma, what's going on?"
"Nothing much. Not having such a great week, but ya know. That's life. How are you doing?"
I ignore her question. "Why haven't you had a good week?" I press.
"Oh, lots of school work to do, me and Legolas broke up, and just..."
"WHAT?!" I say. "You and Legolas broke up! Why?"
She doesn't say anything for a few seconds. "Well...he's been being a jerk lately. Remember when everyone was wanting to talk to you last weekend?"
"Yea, that was as strange as hell!" I say.
"Well, Legolas was trying to get rid of you."
"What?!" I'm totally surprised by that. Why would Legolas do something like that? I always thought he was pretty cool.
"Cause he thought you liked me...and that I liked you."
"Which is as ridiculous as sh*t!!!!!" I yell. Okay, now Legolas has me kinda pissed off, cause I thought we were tight and stuff.
"Not only that, he asked Leanna out. She refused, but just...he's just being a jerk!"
"Yea," I agree. "A real faggot."
"At least for now," she says. "I don't know what his problem is."
I've been kinda busy, and this chapter sucks, but don't worry, things will work out and I'll come up with some more stuff, but this will have to do for now. Ta ta!
"Hey Legolas."
I turn to see Leanna. "Hi," I say. I don't really know what to think of her. I once thought I was in love with her, but a few days later I had NO feelings for her whatsoever. Now she was just...plain Leanna again.
