It's life... by lexi garduño (reading an ebook .TXT) 📕

mouths ‘sorry.’ As I reply, “Its fine Alexis, you’re with them anyway…” I roll my eyes and keep walking as I open the doors and walk out. I pull out my cellphone and dial my mom’s number. I put it on speaker.
She picks up, “Hello?”
“Hey mom, uhm, I’m not going to Bree’s today, she’s going to hang with her other ppl..”
“Oh okaii, so, where do you plan on going? You know I can't pick you up from school right now. I got work till 5 today.”
I sit there for a minute and think of where I could go. Until I finally think of a place to go. “Can I go to Jake’s?”
“Uhhh….sure. Wait, till what time?”
“Emm…,” I pause and tap my phone for the time as I see it is 3:27. I continue to talk in the phone, “Uh, what about 5:30?”
“5:00. Well, okaii around 5:30..”
“Okaii,” I sigh, “Well, I’m gonna get going. K mom?”
“Alright. Bye, I love you.”
“Love ya too.”
“Bye.” Click. I end the call as I start walking to Gary’s. I come to a stop sign and look both ways and jog across the street. After I cross, I look over at the gas station then back down the street. The gas station is right across the street and I really have a craving for a Monster…Hmm..should I go? Eh, I will, mom won’t know anyway. Or wait, should I go get Jake to come with? Hm, I’ll go get him. I start walking down Canopy St and look for a two-story, blue house. Ah ha!
I walk up to the gate and unlock then push open. I run up to the door and knock. I hear footsteps coming to the door. Then someone peeks out from the window. Jake opens the door, “Heyy you.”
“Hey, what are you doing here?”
“What? Your friend can’t just come over?”
He laughs, “Yeah, come in.” He moves away from the door so I can come in.
I walk in and he shuts the door. I stand there. He walks over sits on the couch. He pats the spot next to him motioning me to go sit next to him. I do. I notice his puppy sitting on the other couch. He pounces off and runs towards this couch. “Levi! Haii puppy.” I pat his head as he jumps on my lap.
Jake watches as I pet Levi. “So Jake, I was going to go to the gas station and get a Monster but then I decided to come see if-”
He cuts me off by kissing me. At first, I pull away and look at him weirdly and he blushes with a sad face. But then I dive back in and kiss him back. I pull away and ask, “Sooo…what was that for?”
“What? You didn’t enjoy it? I thought you were,” He looks away sadly.
“I did, honestly, it was amazing. I just,” I pause, “Don’t you have a girlfriend?”
He sighs, “Yeah, I guess..” I groan then he says, “But look, it’s not really real. Not really,” We laugh at this, “She just asked me out and I said yes, and that’s all there is to it. I don’t even like her that much; I’m just giving her a chance. So technically, I don’t have a girlfriend.”
He looked into my eyes as I looked into his. I laid my head on his shoulder as he kissed me on the forehead. I smiled, “Okaii then,” I sighed, “What ever you say babe.”
He sat up as I did. Then he stood while I sat there looking at him, running my hand through my hair. “Still wanna go get a Monster?”
I looked up at him, “Yeah,” I smiled, “Sure.” He helped me up as we collided together and laughed.
Hanging with them..
BREE’S POV:
“Ahahahaha!” We all laugh. Gary, Nick, Krista, Kayla and I were all hanging out at the park. Alexis was here with us but she left about half an hour ago. And oh yeah, Kaitlin is here..
“Did you see him? He was all…” She cut herself off with her own laughter.
“Yeah,” Gary sat back down on the bench as I popped down on his lap. He played with my hair, twisting parts. “Hey! Let’s go get some Monshters!!!!!” Gary shouts. I jump up off of his lap as he stands up after. We walk down the hill and onto the sidewalk, laughing.
As we’re walking down the street, I spot Jake and Lexi walking down the street laughing. I decide to follow them. “Hey guys,” They turn to me, “I’m going to go say hi to uh Lexi..k?”
Before they could answer, I ran over to a bush to hide behind it. I crouched down as I heard them talking about how my sister, Jenny, listened to Justin Bieber and how he was a fag. They laugh as I walk out behind the corner of the bushes to say “haii”. They turn as they hear my foot steps.
LEXI’S POV:
Jake and I stop and turn as we hear foot steps. And who stands there? Bree.
“Oh, haii Bree..What are you doing here?”
“Just walking and no. The question is what are you doing here? With Jenny’s boyfriend?”
“We were just walking to the store. Why? Is there a problem with that?”
“Uhh..maybe? What do you think?” She puts her hands on her hips.
“I guess you have a problem with it but you can’t stop me from hanging with my best friend. So... you might as well drop it.”
“Ohh… you want me to drop it? Is that right? Well, I am not going to until you get away from Jake!”
“Aha! Do you hear her,” I turn to Jake, “She wants me to get away from my best friend.” Then I look back at her, “Listen Li! One day, your sister and my BEST FRIEND are not going to be together anymore. Then, you won’t get mad when I hang out with him. Therefore, you should not be mad now since; they aren’t going to stay together forever. But anyways, what you say, will not stop me. It never will!”
“You will do what I say and walk away,” She said with a grin. So, I grabbed Jake by the hand and continued to walk down the sidewalk.
“Hey! You can’t just walk away from me like that!” She ran up to us and pulled on his arm as he ripped it away and gave her an angry look.
“Will you just let me be?! God, you are so immature!” He grabbed my hand as we continued to walk and leave Bree with a shocked expression on her face.
We crossed the street as we made it to the gas station to find Gary and all of Bree’s other friends. We smiled at them and said ‘Haii.’ They said haii too as we all grabbed Monsters. Then Kaitlin asks me where Bree went, I replied, “Last time I saw her, she was standing on the sidewalk in shock!” We both started laughing and said Bye.
Jake and I drank our Monsters as we walked to the park. He held my hand then I looked at him. He smiled. I smiled back.
