I sighed bored, and waved my hand indignantly. "Lucas, what do you really want?"
"You." Three letters uttered without thinking for a moment, as if he were ready for this question, his wide smile still painted on his hole while I tried to understand the word.
No one will tell you every day that they really want you. But whoever told me that was calling me crazy, to think of it, we just don't get along, which makes us throwing annoying nicknames.
I never hated Lucas, I just hated him, just like all the other men in the world.
Ignoring my thoughts and feelings, dodge with my words, there's no fun like that! Really? You're not going to say those heinous nicknames when you call me again?"
One plan:
Show that I am moved by his words, that he thinks he's the winner, that he tries again, and then I'll get him into the evil of his actions, this bastard.
Slowly tip, right I can't even represent that I'm affected, nodd after a while of staring and raising my eyebrows in condemnation. "Of course! You know, these titles are a joke, I didn't mean anything, I swear."
The honest man does not swear, the innocent man does not justify, and he is a liar and accuses both.
I tried to make a smile as cute as possible, and I wonder not to believe. Really?
I nodd again and smile, a comfort that took its course when he felt I believed him already, how I wanted to yell at him to tell him that he was an i***t.
"So we're okay now?" he asked, as he raised his eyebrows waiting for my answer, I shook my chin in the affirmative, while my eyebrows stuck from his question showing how stupid this question is and doesn't exist between us.
As if we were friends! "Of course!"
I shook my phone in my pants pocket, picked it up, looked at Georgia's letters, took another chance, saying we should be here early tomorrow.
So I said yes, and I sent them:
_Girls there is a Tarek order!
Georgia:
_What's up?
I also asked Bunny, and I sent them:
_I'm with Lucas. Can you come to Johnny's Cafe?
They immediately agreed to smile comfortably, I looked up to Lucas, who was looking at the street waiting for me to finish, I hung up the phone and put it back in my pants pocket.
We continued to go to Johnny's Cafe, while the silence fell between us, Lucas interrupted. "I like to walk, so I didn't bring..." I interrupted him bored. "Your aunt Lucas is punishing you. We all know."
"She's my aunt." He corrected me and turned my eyes indifferently. This aunt went to visit his family and he didn't, taking advantage of her absence and throwing a party. And that's where I'm curious. Why didn't he go to see his family?
Lucas... they cared for an answer, so I kept wondering, tried to hide the curiosity in him. "Why didn't you go see your family and stay?"
He snapped his neck towards me quickly, made me straddle my eyebrows and walked a step away from him, exhaled in anger and turned his eyes in boredom. What the hell is this schism, man?
"You have nothing to do with them." He quotes me and smiles viscously as he pushes the glass door of the café and stands next to him waiting for me to come in before him. Well, I won't deny he's polite, too.
I walked into the cafe while my eyebrows were still stuck, with a strange feeling that what I was doing was wrong.
I mean, I'm going to show him and his friends that I succumbed quickly by agreeing to walk with him -- it's not a big deal, we've been involved in some research before, yeah, we've ended up in the worst grades in the class, but in the end there's an interaction between us.
Our relationship is just complicated. Why would I even justify agreeing to go along with him? To hell.
Let's start a new plan.
Plan number one: get him in love with me, then break his heart.
Yeah, that's what I'm going to adopt, next to exposing him for sure.
I'm Soleen Parker, placing a bet on her? Funny.
She sat on the bench, intending for it to be at the entrance door so that he would sit on the other with his back to the door.
As soon as we sat down, I saw them come in, and Bunny and Georgia tried to hide my smile when I wanted to build her sunglasses, and Georgia put on a beach hat that concealed her entire face.
Hey, Lucas, and just now I'm feeling a little embarrassed, hell, this is almost a date!
My mind must be distracted. "Why does this sound like...?" I asked, I don't know if the question was directed to him or to me, holding his eyebrows in a lack of understanding and repeating my words. "That's like... what?"
I'm just a little nervous, and I don't know if my plan is going to work or fail on me, Solen, calm down and you'll get through this by winning, there's nothing to lose.
"Nothing." As I snap my tongue into the roof of my mouth indifferently, Johnny approached with his gorgeous smile showing the hole next to his mouth.
"Hey, Johnny!" I waved at him with a big smile, the look of my teeth, not artificial, just seeing Johnny in your day makes your life so much better.
"Oh! "Hello, my Soul." I quickly jostled with artificial shyness, Johnny giggles at my reaction. "You don't come as often as before." I'm a slight frown so his dimples reappear, making me complain internally about not getting a dimple like him.
"Did the ass pain team learn that?" his frown broke to a laugh as his head drooped desperately, saying in denunciation. I still don't understand why you've joined him yet.
I stuck my lips in a muffled laugh, nodding my head in the denial of proof that I didn't know the other, "I don't know... you know, this is weird!"
"Yes, very. Especially when it's a cheerleading team for the basketball team." His eyebrows burst at Lucas, who turned his eyes indignantly, while I exhaled wearily when I remembered that he was already sitting in front of me.
"Just get an iced coffee quick, there's dinner waiting for me at home," I told Johnny sticking my left leg to my chest, not bothering to take my full rest.
Johnny turned his eyes to Lucas waiting for his request as well. "Like her." The pen knocks on his little notebook and says cheerfully as he walks away. "You have this."
I made sure that Bunny and Georgia were there again, that Johnny went to, and they're talking about us now, their eyes are on us and nothing else.
I tried to mute a laugh when Georgia picked up a camera that took a picture and bunny hid it in the empty newspaper from the middle like a scared spy in a comedy.
I turned my attention back to him. "So... What do you want to talk about? No, that's not the question. Why the sudden change? Does it make sense..."
He interrupted me before I completed my empty analysis and hung my side smile. "Stop, not that look again!" he shouted indignantly, turning his head back while closing his eyes with a refusal.
That... made me laugh because my looks scare him, the looks of crazy, he says. "What? I didn't do anything!" I shouted innocently, I will. Just wait for me a little bit.
He calmly sighed his surprise, seemingly waiting for the arrival of his traveling son and feeling betrayed by his lack of arrival. Lean his back more comfortably against the back of the seat and rest his hand on his thigh while the other manipulates his phone over the table.
I just... I want to be friends," he said with the same calmness looking me in the eye without blinking, showing his confidence and confirming what he said, I didn't break eye contact and I showed my indifference to his words.
Other than that, there's something strange, a missing link in what's happening that I can't reach.
The answer looms in my mind without the slightest effort: Tell him I hate him, but I am still at my word and the initial plan will be carried out.
Lucas. I hate all men, and I'm not an exception." Boys love the honest girl. Let's give him this, so I want to tell him that I hate all women and I'm no exception to them, but for the sake of the plan, I refrained from saying it.
"I know, but I can't accept having a bad relationship with someone, so I want to start a new page with my classmate." Damn, I would have believed him if I weren't familiar with the bet.
Johnny Cuban put in the iced coffee, and when he walked away, Lucas said again and glimpsed the look of insistence in his eyes that made me sure there was something fishy about him, and my intuition was not mistaken. "Friends?"
I switched my eyes between him and his cup of iced coffee, fabricated the thought, and while I already knew the answer, his fingers moved over the table waiting.
"Okay Lucas, no competition again. As for friends, no one enters my friend zone easily." I pulled out the iced coffee, walked away from our table, and continued. "Thanks for the coffee, Luke."
I tried to smile nicely at him, but I couldn't send a manipulative wink before I walked away and walked out of the entire cafe after saying goodbye to Johnny, of course.
Minutes away from the cafe, I found Bunny and Georgia standing on a wooden plank approaching my parking hat.
I smiled when Georgia threw one at me and put a hat like hers over my head.
I laughed in disbelief and yet I kept them walking over the plank! Walking over the plank crushed my brain. It must have stopped working.
We stopped by the grocery store to pick up some crackers to entertain our session today. Georgia raised the phone to my face and suddenly a picture appeared of me frowning tightly and Lucas smiling in front of me, I cut my eyebrows with incomprehension to interpret Georgia in a malicious tone that made my smile widen with pleasure.
"Lucas is the perfect boy forcing a nice girl out on a date."
