Yesterday
"What do you mean 'It's over'?"He said,almost to tears now.I couldn't beleive this crap.For one,he was an amazing actor,two he was the reason I was dumping him.
"How could think I would beleive your bullshit.You don't even care about me.You are the who cheated on me,not the other way around,asshole!"I shouted at him.I turned around and left.Jenny was right,he isn't worth my tears.Or my time,I thought.I walked home in a blind rage.Andy is such a bitch.When I slammed the door of my house,my mind immediatly cleared.Not entirly,I was still pissed,but enough so that I could think.
"So'd you finnally dump him?"My sister asked.
"Yes.I did."I replied,hanging up my coat.
"Good for you.I'm proud.Now go take a shower and get some rest.It'll help."She smiled.My sister is always lookin out for me.
"Okay.Good night,sis."I said,walking up the stairs.The shower did help.Sleeping did wonders, too.It cleared my head entirly.I deffinatley could get through this without breaking anything valuable.
The next day
I woke up very much refreshed.Andy was happily the farthest thing from my mind.I smelled waffles so I rushed downstairs before Cindy could eat them all.
"I smell chocolate chips!"I said as I sat down.My mom turned around and took in my appearence.
"From your room?Amazing.And no,Cindy didn't beat you down stairs."
"Yes!!More for me.I like being faster than my sister."I said as my mom put a waffle on my plate.I sniffed the aroma of the amazing waffles as I listened to Cindy stumble down the stairs.We fought over the last waffle 20 minutes later.I lost so I went upstairs to change into more appropriate clothing.I highly doubted they would let me into school in my pj's.Cindy and I walked to school together.Usually we were silent but today...
"So how are you doin?"She asked wryly.
"I'm fine."I replied.It was true.I actually fine.
"Okay,Julie."She didn't beleive me."
"I'm serious.I've never been better.Andy was just a dead wait.I am perfect."I tripped."For the most part.She laughed as she helped me up.That's when I heard it.Something I really didn't want to hear.This would deffinatly interfere with the small amount of healing I had to do.
"Please,Please reconsider what you said last night."Andy said from behind me.
"No."I said.This was going to be annoying.
"Please,Julie,I love you.I can't live without you."He cried.I turned to face him.There were tears streaming down his face.
"No you don't love me.And beleive me you can live without me."
"No I can't this is for real."
"It's just the shock catching up with you."
"No it's not."
"Oh,and fake tears don't work on me.I'm not an idiot,Andy!"I turned and stalked off.I stopped and turned back to him.He was standing there looking at me.I walked back to him.He started to smile.
"I forgot.Don't show up to my house at night,or in the afternoon,or morning for that matter receiting poetry,singing,paying a mareache band,or blowing up balloons that say 'Take me back' or 'I love you'.It would be a wasted effort."I turned."And so would flowers and candy."
The day went by as usual.Only every passing period,Andy would follow me trying to win back my affections.It never worked.
"Wow he's like taking this really hard."Nicole said.
"He's just acting,Nicki.He's never been dumped before.It's shocking to him."He sat next to me.We moved.He was smart enough to stay where he was.
"Hey Julie."Milly said.
"Hey."I replied as she sat next to me.
"I still can't beleive you two are friends."Nicki said as Milly sat down.Niether could I.But we shared a common bond.Andy.He was dating me and her at the same time.When we found out,we immediatly became friends and decided who would dump him first.I had won.She dumped him this morning.
"He's taking it "hard"."She said,laughing.
"Don't worry.He'll be after you tommorow."The rest of the day was smooth because I expected Andy now.I also expected the flowers and the mareache band.As I lied in my bed,I was glad my turn was over.But something in the back of mind told me I was wrong.I ignored it and let the sleep take me over.
When Cindy and got to school the next day,Andy was there sitting on the fountain railing.I said hi and kept on walking.Milly was standing near the door and we went over to her.
"So has Andy asked for you back yet?"Cindy asked.
"No actually.He asked me where you were,Julie."She said.
"Odd.He should be to asking you back now.What's going on?"I said.Someone tapped my shoulder.I turned to see Andy looking at the ground.
"Yes?"
"Julie,I'm very sorry for my inappropriate actions yesterday."He looked up at me hesitantly.
"Continue."I said.This was different.For him anyway.
"And I know how you were expecting me to go after Milly today.But I figured my rudeness shouldn't be spread to others.But what I said yesterday was true,I really do love you Juliet.I wasn't acting."He turned and walked away.I just stood there pointing after him.He only uses my full name when he's serious.
"Uhhhhhhhhhh......."Was all I said.We walked to class in silence.At lunch,Nicki was worried.
"What's with Julie?"
"This morning,Andy apoligized for yesterday.He said he loved Julie and he,"Milly looked at me.
"He,uh..."Cindy tried.
"What?!?!"Nicki said.
"He called me Juliet."I said what my friend and sister could not.Nicki looked as shocked as I was.
"He only ever called you Juliet when he was serious about love and stuff."
"I know,that's what scares me.He might actually love me."
"We'll just have to let this play out.He might still be acting."Cindy said.
"Yeah,like Romeo."I said as we left the cafateria.
