Hey everyone .. sorry it took me so long to update .. I've been kinda busy with some problems but yeah here's another chapter ..
Ruthie wakes up the next morning, not wanting to go to school. She walked to the mirror and tried to think of something to wear. 'I don't see why I should bother anymore..' she thought to herself. She didn't want to think in the morning so she just took a blue shirt and her denim jeans and slip them on. She then put her hair into a ponytail and took her bookbag and put it over her shoulder. She went downstairs to the kitchen to find Martin sitting and eating cereal in his sweats.
"Why are you still in your sweats? We're gunna be late." She said to him as she opened the fridge to get some orange juice. He looked up at her like she was crazy.
"Late for what?" he asked with a confused look. "Late for school duh? Did you hit your head or something?" she asked him.
"I think you were the one that hit your head because I usually prefer to stay at home on Saturdays.." he said laughing. She looked up and realized it was a Saturday. She then blushed.
"Oops..haha sorry" She said to him. She took a muffin and stood across from the counter where Martin was sitting on the stool. "It's okay. I understand. You feeling better?" He asked.
"Yeah I'm okay." She said realizing what he was talking about. "You want to hang out today? I don't really want to stay at home."
"Umm.." He was hesitant to answer her. She looked at him and noticed he didn't say anything else. "It's okay, you don't have to. I could just go around myself or ask someone who's home." she said smiling at him to make it easier for him.
"No..I don't have any plans, we can hang out." He said smiling at her. 'I don't have chances to hang out with her..I need to tell her how I feel' he said to himself. 'I just have to call and cancel with Zoey..and soon.. break up with her'
"Okay then. I'll meet you back here in half an hour." She said as she was walking upstairs. "Wait..why half an hour?" he asked puzzledly.
"I need to go change and so do you." She said to him. "It only takes me 5 minutes and you're already dressed." He said looking at her blue shirt and denims.
"Please Martin. You really expect me to wear this! I never know who I can meet." She said winking at him as she walked up stairs. He gave her a fake smile and just as she disappeared, it faded. 'You want to meet someone else already?' he thought to himself wanting to say to her… he had disappointed look on his face as he walked back to his apartment. 'She doesn't like me..she thinks of me as a brother. And I have Zoey.. why do I think I love Ruthie? My sister?' he thought about his question.. 'Because I do love her..' he said to himself.
He got back to his apartment and grabbed his phone. He dialed a phone number and put the phone to his ear. It rang. "Hello?" Zoey said.
"Hey Zoey." Martin said. "Oh hey, honey. I'll be ready in 10 minutes come over." She said to him.
"No I cant, I cant hang out with you today. Sorry to cancel last minute." He said to her. "Oh..i was looking forward to it.." she said sounding really sad.
"I know" Martin said. "But I have something to do. I'll just talk to you later" he said to her and hung up before she could ask for an explanation. He was relieved once he hung up. He sat there for a while. 'I have to tell her. I have to tell her soon.' He kept thinking to himself. After thinking for a bit, he went to the closet to get dressed and meet up with the girl he loves.
Meanwhile, Ruthie went up to her room to get ready. 'I have to wear something to impress Martin' she thought to herself. Thinking about Martin made her smile. She tried on a bunch of outfits and finally decided on a tan off one shoulder top, a brown skirt and her high heel boots. She put on a light touch of makeup and combed her natural curls. She finished with a spray of perfume and looked herself in the mirror. She smiled and was satisfied with herself.
She walked downstairs to find Martin all done and waiting. She looked at what he was wearing. A black dress shirt with light red stripes and jeans. He had his hair fixed too. 'Wow he looks so hot' she thought to herself as she smiled at him. Martin looked up and saw her. 'She looks gorgeous' he said to himself. He smiled and said "So you ready?" "Yup" Ruthie said.
Haha sorry not as long but yeah..this chapter's kind of boring but I'll try and spice up the next one.
