After the weekend and the horrible house party, I almost forgot about it all until I got to school. Apparently, everyone was talking about it and how I kissed the new guy. Even Maya, a girl from my class, walked up to me and asked if I was dating Emory and why we don't talk in school since we both... kissed. "Uhmm, I didn't really kiss him," I replied. She exclaimed, "Oh, mine! So he kissed you?" "I mean, I..." I cut in. Ashley, her... "Lanie, oh hey!" I ran up to her. "How's your day going?" she asked with a smile. "I'm not fine, I'm getting harassed!" I fake cried. "Oh, mine, stop being dramatic!" she squeezed my hand. "You shouldn't have said that, really," she added. "Yeahh, I know," I replied. "It's just that I couldn't really think about any name at that time." She laughs, "Well, that was actually funny."
During lunch, we headed to the cafeteria and got something to eat. Then some guys came to our table and placed their plates, and then, just like that, they started calling out, "Emory! Emory! Emory! Your girl's here!" "She's not my girl," she answered from the other side of the cafeteria. "Oh, what are you then?" one guy asked. "What do you mean?" Megan asked him. "Well, if she's not his girl, she's probably his whore," and they burst into laughter, and I replied, "He just doesn't wanna say it, we are together." And then I realized what a stupid thing I did, and I was glaring at him, thinking he would say otherwise, but he just got up and left.
"Melanie!" Ashley called. "I know," I replied. "I'm sorry, guys.
The day ended basically with a lot of rumors, and some were made up, and I was a bit scared my mom might hear about them since she knows a teacher from my school, and it's easy for everyone to know your business. Fortunately, it didn't happen.
But I went out this evening to get some groceries, and when I saw Emory, I walked fast as possible. I didn't want him to ask me why I did what I did because I wouldn't have an answer.
Oh, and guess what happened in math class today? Our teacher, Mrs. Johnson, accidentally wrote the wrong answer on the board, and the whole class copied it . I was dying!
like no one noticed !
