Entry 5- Confused

Dear Diary,

Thank good it's Saturday! Well, today I wasn't in the mood to do a lot. Basically I just wanted to chill and do nothing. And I figured I could at least chill with Landon. So I went over to his house and rung the doorbell. His mom opened the door and when I asked if I could talk to Landon, she told me he was at tutoring. I thought: Of course he's at tutoring, what the hell is wrong with me? Yeah, you could tell I felt stupid. I knew that.

So I drove myself to Tracie's house. Tracie was getting ready to walk to Dean's house to go to the downtown burger place. She asked me if I wanted to go, and I had nothing better to do, so I didn't pass. We both walked down the street to Dean's place and saw that he stupidly left his car doors unlocked. So we hoped in and honked the horn loudly. Dean soon looked confusingly out of his bedroom window. And Tracie shouted for him to get his sleepy ass down there to drive us downtown. He rubbed his eyes, clearly from just waking up, and disappeared into his house. He came out soon, keys in one hand and a few beers in the other. He climbed in, gave Tracie a peck and started the car.

We sped to the burger place, not caring that Dean was practically driving half-asleep. When we got there, we sat on the hood drinking milkshakes and eating burgers. Not long after, Eric showed up. He joined us on the hood and ate the remains of my burger, saying that he couldn't even afford half burger after losing a lot of cash playing pool at the other restaurant.

Well, after a while Dean and Tracie went back to Dean's place, and after a few swigs, Eric went back to his house to see if he could get some more cash from his mother. I asked Eric to drive me to my neighborhood, though. The walk's too long from downtown to my place. So he dropped me off and I started walking to my house, slowly, thinking about ways to get Landon, when I heard a bus drive up behind me. It stopped right beside me in the street to drop off a student about my age. When the bus stopped, I looked inside, and you'll never guess what I saw.

It was Landon and Jamie, only they were sitting TOGETHER! In the same seat! And they were talking. Immediately, I assumed Landon was dissin Jamie, but she didn't look at all offended. And the scary part was that it looked like Landon was smiling! And Jamie was smiling back. I stared at them talking for a while until the bus pulled away. Then I realized the student the bus dropped was Denise, a girl in my class. She's okay, I guess. And she told me that I looked like I saw my worst nightmare. My reply was, "In a way, I did." Then I strolled away, leaving Denise looking bewildered, even though I knew I was more confused than she was.

Some of you are probably wondering about which part looked like Landon was smiling at Jamie on the bus. Well in a way he sorta did. When he said, "You sit at lunch table seven." Well, please R/R. Thanks, Olivia
