Ria's Writing Corner
Inside and Outside
Chapter 13
I slapped myself. Those thoughts were coming back. Why can't I stop?! Micheal put his hand on my shoulder. I yelped. "MARIA!"
"Y-yes?"
"He wants to check out the mall."
"S-sure!"
I tried to make it look like something had happened. Micheal stared at me weird.
"WHAT?"
"Nothing."
I walked ahead of them trying to keep my blushing to a minium. I was soo embarassed. These thoughts about someone who doesn't even like me back. I really should learn to stop. That's when I bumped into my EX. "GoDAMNIT!" I yelped backing up. "Sooo..It's the- -" I didn't let him finish.
"Leave me alone."
"ooo..that hurts."
"wonderful"
"pff. What brings you here?"
I looked behind me to see where Link and Micheal whent. They were RIGHT behind me. "I'm showing a friend around." I pointed to Link.
"A friend? HIM?"
I grumbled. "She's right." Link must of known how angry I was made my EX shocked. "Your soo ugly though! How'd you meet a friend like him?!" I couldn't explain it. Noone could. "errr..."
"you payed him right?"
"WHAT?!"
The EX snickered. This is why I hated men. This is also why I hated to fall in love anymore. I heard Micheal whisper something to Link but I couldn't make it out. That's when I felt Link's arm on my shoulder. I whent into a blushing frenzy. "uhh.." But Link talked for me. "Excuse me but..She ISN'T ugly."
"Says who?"
"Says ME."
"Jo-MARIA!"
That's when my friend walked in. She was carrying two sodas. He thinks he can make me jealous by PRETENDING to go out with my friend? Not gunna happen. I looked up..My face was probally the color of the Start button on the N64 controller. "Maria..Are you okay? Your all red."
"WHAT?!" I covered my face. My EX snickered. "Where'd you find the guy?"
My friend whispered in my ear.
"Err...somewhere."
"ha!..."
"?"
"um...Want a soda?"
"I thought it was for the other guy.."
"No.."
"Oh. Okay"
Then I remembered. "Hey,Link...Have you ever had a sada?"
"No.."
I handed him the soda. "Try it." He did. At first his face looked sick then he looked normal. "It's not bad."
"It's called Coca Cola."
"Interesting.."
"It used to have a drug called Cocaine in it. Not anymore though."
"Okay."
I could tell he didn't understand but he sure as hell tried to. I nodded. His hand still on my shoulder. Then I thought: Did he LIKE me? My friend smiled at me. "What a way to get back at your ex,Maria. Hiring a guy..." I growled.
"I didn't hire him."
"Sure."
I ran off..to somewhere in the mall. I just wanted to get away.
