Fake friend
âNo donât buy that it looks weird on youâ your âfriendâ says as you two are shopping for some new clothes for summer. âWhy? You know I like this colour! Besides this shirt is cute and not even expensiveâ you say and already going to the cashier to pay for the shirt but your friend snatches it from you. âNope Iâm not going to get embarrassed to be seen with you wearing thatâ they say and go put it back on itâs place.Â
Now outside of another shop your friend turns to you. âDonât look yet but I think that one guy is checking me out. The one with brown hair parted from the middle!â they exclaim and stare at you in anticipation. You find their described guy and lock eyes with him. âTo be honest I think heâs looking at meâ you say and your friend looks annoyed. âNo heâs totally looking at meâ they say and look back at the guy to try to impress him. âBut I made eye contact with hi-â your friend cuts you off by hitting your shoulder. âNah that was probably an accident. Since look at me. Iâm way better looking than youâ (Feeling sick to actually write this)
You rub your shoulder as the hit actually hurt some and try to fight the tears from forming because of their harsh words. âOh my god heâs coming here!âÂ
The boy stops a few steps away from you and your friend immediately shows their flirtatious smile to him. âCan I help you somehow?â they ask him and you feel hurt as they completely erased your existence now that there was someone handsome talking to you. âYeah I would like to give this shirt to your friendâ he says and lends you the shirt you wanted back at the other shop but your friend takes it before you can. âOh you shouldnât have done this. Just look at the shirt. Itâs so ugly and looks weird on them. It just makes their flaws stand out even moreâ your friend says and you shift your gaze to the ground and blink the tears away quickly. âWhat are you talking about? I saw this shirt on them and it looked amazing. Arenât you supposed to be their friend. Also I brought this to them not for youâ the boy says and smiles at your comfortingly. You take the shirt and hear your friend scoff and chuckle. âWell itâs not my problem if you embarrass yourself, just donât come near me so people donât find out that I know youâ they say and turn around to walk away.
âWell that was indeed interestingâ the boy says and turns to look at you and just now you notice how incredibly tall he actually is. âSorry for not introducing myself. Iâm Johnnyâ he says and flashes you a blinding smile making your cheeks heat up slightly. âItâs okay Iâm ____â you say and smile back at him.
âUmm maybe we could like go out someday? Just you know like getting to know each other since you seem so nice and I really want to get to know you but I donât want to creep you out or something-â he stammers and rubs his neck nervously.
âGive me your phoneâ you say and he complies immediately most likely feeling a little bit of embarrassed by his rambling.Â
âHere. Text me the details Iâll look forward to it. Bye!â you say and run off giggling all the way, leaving him standing there with a dumb grin on his face as he stares at your contact in his phone.
