Brixia In The Sky

Who is Charlie?

During lunch I walked to Charlie, he was already at the wall watching tik tok on his phone. I tapped his shoulders and he looked at and dabbed me up. We shared our hellos and I asked about life and stuff. He seemed to be his usual self.  

Charlie was tall compared to my 5’3 height maybe by 7 inches. His hair covered none of his face but it was long, he had an eyebrow piercing that made him look really good, in my opinion. He also had his ear pierced and would wear a black cross but sometimes when I wore hoops he would take it off and my hoops on so we could take a picture. He always wore the same outfits and shoes. A branded person, had his s**t figured out most of the time, he says he is scared of me because of how social i was and that i tend to be nice. He said to find my balance but he is my balance because him being my friend shows me I surround myself with good people, so I'm a good person, right?

When we are talking it's always fun, and easy, there is no reason to lie. Me and him were never close in middle school, matter of fact i didn't talk to him. In middle school, many girls had a crush on him, and he knows it. Now all he says is that he is ugly and all the weird girls want him. He tends to be more shy and to him is so social it's an odd friendship that works.

Charlie taps on my shoulder to point out an ex crush was sitting right by me. I shrugged and said whatever. He then goes on and says something about how the tall girls need to start looking his way so he can make some D1 babies, i have to laugh. My two cents are always short girls making D1 babies. He laughs it off, I take out my bag of chips I bought from a teacher before I walked out there. I offer him one and he takes it with no hesitation. We sit there watching the kids play volleyball and make jokes about how the ball almost hits so many people. 

The reason why Charlie acknowledge my ex crush is because he likes to make jokes on how he looks gay and that i was a dumb a*s for letting him play. This is why you get guy friends like him, to make yourself understand that s**t is a lot easier if you laugh and point out the red flags. 

The lunch bell rang and I walked Charlie to class. When we were walking, many people came up to me and hugged, it was mostly people who I didn't talk to. Charlie rolled his eyes and when I was saying bye to him “stop being social brixia, too much attention” I laughed and rolled my eyes. Sometimes he can be so dramatic. 

The rest tend to be boring. I get through the rest of my classes and head home.
