Mako's Message: Ya know what? I am really dissatisfied with this chapter. I started this on Friday and have been poking at it ever since and I just can't get it into shape. So, feel free to let me have it on this one. I'm not sure what's wrong with it, so I'll appreciate any feedback, constructive or flammable.
I never thought of Jessi as a shy person. She's always been loud, outgoing, and snarky. Hell, her public display of appreciation in the school cafeteria is a perfect example.
But lately she's been...well, shy. Almost nervous.
I guess it's because she's dressing kinda slutty lately. It's getting her a lot of attention. That was kind of the point though, wasn't it? I mean, she said she wanted a boyfriend and with Valentines day coming up she started trying to get one.
I don't know. I don't understand why she's dressing like that if it's making her uncomfortable. Why not just stop?
I guess it is getting her more attention from guys but... if it's making her...
I DON'T UNDERSTAND!
If she want's the attention what's the problem? If she doesn't want it why doesn't she just stop?
Angela is worried about it though. She thinks she's putting herself too far out there. I don't know. If I knew how to get a guy I'd have Dave. What she's doing seems to be working. She's talking to guys all the time. She just needs to pick one. Is it that complicated?
Anyway. Valentines day. It seems to be all the girls are talking about. It's still about two weeks off though. Katie is hounding Dave to make sure he has the the night off so they can make plans.
It's annoying as hell for me to watch, I can't imagine how hard it is for Dave to put up with.
"Did you talk to your manager? When will you know? Can you get your Dad's car or should I drive? Where should we go?"
It makes me want to hold a pillow over her face until she stops fighting.
Angela doesn't seem bothered by it though. I guess it's because her parents said she's too young to date so she's not bothering to get excited about it. So we've actually been hanging out a lot.
We went to the mall which was...fun. I guess. I wasn't really interested in shopping but it was nice to get out of the house and since we were there just to hang out I talked her into going into that knife store. There were so many sweet blades there. There where a lot of fantasy blades, like this one dagger that had a star shaped blade that curved, and the back end spread out into five hooks. I'd LOVE to see the look of horror on some junkies face if I pulled that on him.
There where some nice butterfly knives on display too. I was in the middle of trying to talk the guy into letting me try a couple out when I caught Angela smirking at me.
I asked, "What are you looking at me like that for?"
She said, "I thought you hated shopping."
I said, "I do." and went back to looking at the knives.
Erica seems to have decided to take Marty back. I'm not sure if she just doesn't want to be alone for Valentines Day or if she really likes Marty though.
Riley, surprisingly, was just being...pouty the last time I saw her. I thought she'd be trying harder than ever to steal Dave, but it was like she didn't even care. I wonder if she tried to make a move on him and he shot her down...
I don't know what I think though.
Valentines Day doesn't really excite me. I don't have any romantic interest in anyone... I mean, yeah, I'd like it if Dave wanted to spend the night with me, but I'd like it if he wanted to spend ANY night with me. Although, I'm thinking less candlelight diner and more twisted sheets.
