It was lunch time now and I was showing Mason around our super amazing school. Right now we're at the cafeteria, the place where the most drama happens.
"There will most likely be some sort of crazy bs happening right now so just be aware. It's got alright food like it could be better." I contemplated if we should get food with my friends or take him around.
"Liana!" Blair called out my name and came over to hug me. "Who's the cutie?" She whispered in my ear.
"The names Mason. Yours?" He replied.
"Blair. Liana's sister. Are you by any chance single?"
"Yes but sorry, my eyes are already on someone else." As he said those words he looked over at me with a tiny smirk on his face. What!?
"Notedddd. She's a lucky girl and if you break her heart there is no safe corner for you to run to here, k?"
"Ok. I hope you find a replacement for your might I add, carefully thought out plan." I let out a little laugh thinking about how I told him about my sister trying to find a rebound guy.
"Thank you." She said giving me a glare as she walked away. I saw a little middle finger pull up however, delightful as always.
"So that was Blair, the sister. And I just can not fathom how you just basically rejected her. She'd hate you forever but I guess you redeemed yourself with your looks." Literally.
"She's attractive yes but I can't let her win that easily. When you wanna play a game like that you gotta know to play the long game. Plus I wanna explore someone else." A mini smile started to approach on my lips hoping he was talking about me but
I shouldn't. I shouldn't want that. I should want the absolute opposite of that. Because Liana. You. Have. A. Boyfriend. Who you ditch your sister for and stay out for ages with, think about that!!! "You look like you're in your own space, should I back off?"
"What? No. Don't back off. I don't want you to back off. You wanna grab some food out of school? I'm in the mood for anything that's not made here right now."
"Lead the way." I grabbed his hand and we went out to my car sneaking out of school for a bit.
. . . . .
When we got our food we stayed in the car and enjoyed it with the roof down, letting the simple, small town breeze wash over us. I was playing 'high school sweethearts by Melanie Martinez' in the background on low volume. I got to know more about him, he was a pretty open guy. I know that he's a big music fan, he's kinda like me as in we both have interests in books. "My fav genre would definitely have to be...thriller? I think it's interesting, you can never really know what to look out for at the end."
"Can I expose a secret of mine then?" I asked him.
"Go ahead."
"So I hate not knowing things, I like making people tell me the ending of stories because I need to know! It's something that's actually kinda bad but yeah I skip to the end of books."
"I could never. I love having the mystery there, you don't know what could go on next. Your idea is crazy. What's your favourite genre then?"
"I'd have to say, romantic horror or thriller. I love all things spooky and spooky love is the best, like the main character could legit be in love with a ghost and not judge him, how can that not be romantic?"
"I see your point. I think they also cause the biggest heartbreaks though but heartbreaks are a personal favourite."
"Sorry what? Explain."
"So I love how the author builds up all of that romance and love and shit and brings it down because it moves me. Like I feel so much emotion from it and truly that's when you know it's a good book." And he's not a player?
"I get that take. I could never, I'm extremely emotional sometimes so that'd be a touch too much for me." I received a notification on my phone.

Asher💟 -
Usual spot. We need to talk, can you skip?
Me -
Kinda busy right now, can it wait?
Asher💟 -
I'm sorry that you all of a sudden don't care about my needs anymore. You're such a bitch.
Me -
Wtf. Chill I'll be there soon.

I guess he's back in one of his explosive moods again, he acts like that a few times. Mostly when I don't wanna give him everything he wants. I hate it. But I like him so I let it be, to not cause issues.
"Hey I have to go, I have some shit to take care of, um I'll drive you back. This was fun by the way."
"You're fun to talk to. Having that makes things easy." Well at least he wasn't a dick. I smiled at his comment and took him back to school before driving to meet Asher.
. . . . .
I went up to him with the same usual greeting but this time he rejected it. He held yet again another cig in his hand and told me to sit.
"We're done. I don't like you anymore." He said through hits of whatever he'd rolled up.
"What?...Can you explain properly, come on we met yesterday, everything was fine."
"Is yesterday today? Liana I don't like you. To be honest I've been cheating on you for a while now. I only stayed because I pitied you. You got no one by your side, I'm the only person who has ever been interested in you. Also you won't even have sex with me, or let me touch you it's annoying." Tears started forming as I stood up to walk away. I'm not saying anything, because he's not worth it. Maybe I should've listened to my sister....
