Heyyy guys! I'm hoping you guys enjoyed the first chapter of this story! Now, on to the story!
This is going to be absolute hell... Is all I could think as I approached the table, smiling at my friends as I took my seat.
"Hey, Cyrus... Are you alright..?" Andi asked, raising an eyebrow as she tore her gaze away from Jonah.
"Um... Yeah, I'm fine, Andi. Why?" I asked, suppressing a small yawn.
"No reason, you just... Look really tired is all." She muttered in response, not bothering to look away from Jonah again.
How can you even tell when your head is too far up Jonah's ass to see anything..? I thought, immediately regretting it afterwards. After all, it wasn't Andi's fault she was infatuated with Jonah. After all, he was extremely cute, kind, and funny... Despite my jealousy, I swallowed that painful lump again and replied.
"Ah, yeah... I didn't get a lot of sleep last night. Thanks for asking." I managed, not receiving a reply from Andi this time. I sighed and took a seat across from Jonah, feeling my heart flutter when he flashed his signature grin at me.
"Hey, Cy!" He greeted, as if he only just noticed me. Normally, I would be a bit frustrated that it took him this long to notice, but I couldn't quite bring myself to be frustrated with him. Instead, I just felt flustered.
"H-hey Jo-Jo-Jonah..." I stammered, immediately regretting opening my mouth. I quickly snapped my mouh shut, hoping to avoid any questioning from him. Luckily, he didn't seem to notice.
"You good, bro? You look like you need a coffee or something."
"Ah, yeah, I'm good... But a coffee does sound pretty great." I chuckled, leaning a bit closer, placing my elbows on the table, my eyes locking onto his for a moment before hastily looking at my hands.
"Well, I can't really get you a coffee, but maybe after school, you and I can get some baby taters and milkshakes? My treat." Jonah offered, giving me that adorable smile of his. Without thinking, I nodded. Then I actually thought for a minute, and obviously, so did Andi.
"Wait, what about me and Buffy?" She asked, almost too quickly. I could see her embarrassment for a brief moment, but she quickly recovered. Her eyebrow was now slightly raised, and she was giving Jonah a strange look.
While Jonah quickly tried to explain to Andi what he meant by that statement, I turned my attention to my phone, which had just lit up with a new message from Buffy.
Hey, Cyrus. Go ahead and let Andi know that I'm not gonna be at school today. Not feeling good.
Okay. I'll ttyl, k?
Ok. Thanks, Cyrus.
I sighed and shook my head before putting my phone in my bag and looking at the couple across from me. Apparently the argument had been settled one way or another, as they were now back to sitting quietly.
"Hey, Cyrus, have you heard from Buffy this morning?" Andi asked, no longer totally wrapped up in Jonah. It doesn't seem that she won the argument, based on her slightly dejected demeanor.
"Yeah, she said she wasn't feeling good." I muttered, somewhat wondering what happened while I was texting Buffy. The look on Andi's face said that Jonah had said something about it being a guy-time thing, but the cloudiness to Jonah's eyes suggested that he was lost in thought.
I hope I didn't mess anything up by accepting his invitation...
And thus, another chapter has come to an end. I hope you guys are enjoying this, and if you are, let me know, and always, thanks for reading!
