Chapter 23 - Let your hair down
Group chat:
PSA
You are all invited to one of the best parties of your life.
Tonight at 7 pm
It’s time to let go, let loose and have fun.
I don’t want to hear anything about school tonight.
I don’t want to hear any excuses
Everyone has to be there (I mean you Ryo)
If you don’t show up, we’re not friends anymore
Kelly
I don’t think going to a party is a good idea.
I don’t really do well in social situations
Ryo
I second that
I don’t feel like going to a party.
Can’t we do something less crowded

“I guess the movie is really that boring huh?” Oliver says as I stir awake. It takes a minute for me to make sense of what is going on. I open my eyes wider and I gaze into Oliver’s eyes. I’m lying fully on my back; my head is on his tummy. When in the hell did I get into this position? Why am I this close to him? So much for keeping my distance, I’m the one assaulting him now.“When did I fall asleep?” I ask sitting up. I look at the projector and the movie is still playing but I wouldn’t tell you what it is or which part of the movie is playing. The backyard is so quiet; everyone is concentrating on what’s happening on the screen. No wonder I fell asleep, the only sound out here is the movie and nothing else. It’s so silent it sounds like a fancy cemetery, creepy I know but that’s what it feels like.“As soon the movie started.” He says smiling at me. Wow I got so upset

“What happens now?” Kelly asks staring at me. She’s sitting on my bed with her feet tapping on the floor over and over. She’s so excited she can’t sit still and the smile on her face is going to make her face hurt in the morning I wish I was excited as she is, I’m still reeling from kissing Oliver. That was both unexpected and emotionally charged. My body is still buzzing.“I can’t believe the two of you are finally going to date. I told you he likes you.” She says and I shake my head. She’s jumping to conclusions, neither of us talked about dating. We just kissed and the he was gone. I don’t think that means we’re going to live happily ever after.“I don’t know.” I say shrugging. “I don’t think the kiss meant anything more than that. We just wanted to kiss each other that’s all.” I say and she just looks at me her face

“You’re really a morning person aren’t you?” I ask Oliver looking at him nervously. He showed up this morning out of nowhere. He sent me another one of his I’m outside text and yet again he was standing outside my house. Only this time he didn’t come bearing any gifts. I could have used a hot cup of tea and a doughnut. At least the sugar would have given me a boost to deal with the shit storm that’s about to hit me.And I’m a little sad we’re not sitting in my mother’s plant room, we opted for a walk around my neighborhood. And he doesn’t seem to be happy with the walking. He was so happy sitting in the plant room though. He was smiling the whole time. I didn’t invite him in because my mother is home. She wouldn’t mind having him over but I didn’t want to create more confusion by introducing him to her. I don’t want things to get anymore weirder than they already are.Beside

“What did you do?” Jameson says when he opens his front. I laugh the moment the words leave his mouth. Why would he assume I did something? I just got here and his mind is already filled with accusations. I fear we will never fix our relationship, he’ll never trust me again.“I didn’t do anything to anyone.” I say and he raises his brows at me in question. Yep that’s the look of distrust. “I am in need of a shoulder to cry on though.” I say and he looks at me curiously.“Come in.” He says standing aside so I can walk into his house. “I’m in the kitchen making lunch. Are you hungry?” He asks leading me to the kitchen. I smile the when I walk in, memories of Ry walking around this room flood my mind. She had a blast cooking for us that night. I can still taste the food we ate, she’s an amazing cook. It’s a shame she won’t be cooking for me any time soon. I blew tha

21 days later Kelly Jameson and I are having lunch in the school garden. I’ve been at this school for three years and this is my first time here. I didn’t know students were allowed to have lunch in the garden. Jameson is the one that put Kelly and I on this very public secret.He invited us to have lunch with him today; he says we have to hang out again. Apparently he misses spending time with us. We stopped hangout after Kelly’s backyard movie night. We decided to take a break from each other for a while but we never got around to reconnecting.The assignment is still on hold and neither of us has the nerve to bring it up. Life has been good without the stress. We still have time to get to it; we just need a little longer to get our shit together.“I’m so excited for your date tonight.” Kelly says clapping her hands and jumping up and down at the same time. I cringe at the mention of my date. J

My name is Ryo, I’m 16 years old and I’m in high school.I love music; I spend more time listening to music than I do anything else.I like school but I wouldn’t bat an eye if I couldn’t go anymore.I have one friend; I’ve known her since first grade. We have a lot of fun together and we love swapping playlists. It helps us discover new music and we get to see who has the best musical taste (It’s me of ‘course.)I wish the information I gave you made any contribution to this conversation but it doesn’t. I said all of that to get to one point.I’m in love; I am completely and utterly in love with a boy.I don’t know what makes him tick; I don’t know what type of music he likes. I don’t know what he does in his spare time. But I do know I’m in love with him.I shouldn’t be in love with him but I am.I know nothing good will come from me fant

English class after lunch “Okay class, please settle down. We have a lot to do today.” Miss Una says when we walk into the class. Mark walks in last giving me a mournful look; I ignore him and look at Miss Una. He can’t guilt trip me into going on a date with him I don’t like him like that.Kelly and I sit next to each other one desk from the door. I love sitting here because I can get out of class easily as soon as class is over.“Okay, this is your midterm assignment.” She says and the class groans in disapproval. “It contributes 60% to your overall year mark. So it’s very important that you take this seriously.” She says ignoring the cries of despair from everyone.She hands me two sheets of the assignment outline and then she moves to Kelly giving her the rest of the papers to pass around. “Please take one and pass the rest.” She says sto

“Okay, how are we going to do this?” Kelly says looking at Jameson, Oliver and I. “I know you have poetry sessions every Wednesday at 4 pm and you have to work Sundays. How do your schedules look?” she asks looking at the boys.I’ve been dreading this moment since I found out Kelly and I are partnering with Oliver and his friend. I still can’t believe my luck. How is it possible that I was grouped with the one guy I would rather die than spend time with. Every time he looks at me I feel like he can see all the secret thoughts I’ve had of him.I feel like I’ve been caught.Kelly told me we had to meet up in Miss Una’s class after school so we can figure everything out. I was tempted to fake a headache so I wouldn’t have to do this. The proximity to Oliver is giving me a headache. I’m tense, anxious and hyper sensitive to everything. I don’t know how I’m going to survive this.
