Syrus is a really cool guy. We actually have many of the same interests and it's really making me happy right now. We spent his official first day in my room, talking about dumb things and listening to some music that we found online. I posted a photo of him and I on Twitter and it already has a lot of comments. Lexi is going to freak when she sees it after she comes over when school ends.
We're still in my room just hanging out when Syrus says: "You're room is really unique," He blurts out.
I take a look around it, looking at every aspect of it. My walls are a light blue color. When you first enter my room, you would first notice my bed on the side in the exact middle of the wall. My bed has a heart shaped headboard and purple covers. I have a wall full of pictures by my bed that almost covers about the whole wall. My closest has a sign that Lexi made for me that says Enter at your own risk. Then I have a window that I sit on. I decorated that with soft, pink pillows. Next to my window is my desk, where I do all my homework and sometimes write music when I'm bored.
"I guess you could say it's unique," I shrug. "It's changed a lot over the years. I kinda need more space," I say
"Don't you have like extra rooms in the house?" He asks, standing up.
I nod and get up with him wondering where he would be going. He takes my hand and I immediately feel electricity run up my body, but I don't pull away. We walk down the hallway to the last door and open it.
"You could use this room to hang out with your friends instead of your actual bedroom," He suggests
I literally jump on him for having such a great idea. "Syrus, you are legit the best person ever. Why have I not thought of this?" I berate myself for how stupid I can be. "I have to go ask my mom if I can do this and I need someone to help me hang all the things in here," I start planning things out loud. I'm a person who likes to plan things. It's one of the perks of knowing me.
I sprint out of the room leaving Syrus by himself to go downstairs to find my mom. She's in the living room talking to Annie and Johanna about adult conversations. I can tell it's a serious talk because it's in hushed whispers. I wonder what they don't want me to know?
"Mom," I start. "Can I make the room upstairs that's down the hallway like a room of my own?" I ask quickly
She waves me off. "As long as you get someone to help you move your stuff around, I don't care,"
I squeal before running back up the stairs and into my room. Lexi is going to have a field day when she hears about this.
"I came as soon as I could," Lexi appears in my door way. She glances and sees Syrus next to me on my bed. She winks at me before proceeding to my bed. "I'm Lexi, Jasmine's absolute bestest friend," She squeezes my cheeks to embarrass me in front of Syrus.
Syrus chuckles to himself. "Nice to meet you Lexi,"
"Alright, why are you two inside? We need to show this kid around the District," She grabs both off our hands and leads us out of the house.
We all walk to the town, showing Syrus all the new buildings amazing places and the memorials from the war that lead to our freedom.
"This is a beautiful place," He comments
Lexi smiles at me, watching to see if I will say something. "Yeah, but I bet it's not as gorgoues as District 4. All the beautiful beaches there, it's just perfect. I want to get married there one day," I ramble on. I hope I'm not annoying to Syrus but he seems to enjoy talking to me a lot. It makes me really happy.
We continue on through town before we come across Chris. I don't know whether to go up and introduce Chris to Syrus or just pretend that I don't see him. I turn to face away from Chris, hoping he won't notice me but he does. He walks up to us and notices that me and Syrus interlocked our hands together once more. What is with us and all this handholding?
"Hey, Jas!" He greets with a smile but his eyes tell a different story. "Is this your boyfriend?" He questions me
"Oh, no," I say nonchalantly. "This is Syrus, we're good friends," I offer this information to him
His eyes fill with light again, but I yet feel the spark that I've been waiting to come between us. To prove that we would have some sort of connection.
"I'll see you at school," He says walking away awkwardly.
Syrus looks at me with a smirk on his face. "Do you like that guy?" He asks
I shrug. "Honestly, I don't know anymore,"
"He looks kind of shady,"
"Guys!" Lexi interrupts. "Can we like go to your dad's bakery. I'm in need off a cinnamon roll," Lexi says dramatically
"Sure Lexi, come on," I say grabbing her arm. We all walk to the bakery knowing that this was a perfect day and an almost perfect ending.
Hey guys, I am still on hiatus, I'm just posting the chapters that I already have done for this story. I recovered the chapters, thank God, so I won't leave you guys hanging this week. I'll still post these chapters because they are already done and it doesn't require me to write, I just have to post. That's the reason why I'm not updating anything else. So I'll post the next to chapters next week and sorry that I won't be writing for a while for my other stories. I just have so much school stuff to get over with and then it's straight summer time for me.
Just one question for you guys about the story. Do you think Jasmine is insecure? If you do think so, tell me why.
Anyway see you guys later :)
