Dear, Mr. Costello. by Ariana Lomeli (life changing books to read .TXT) 📕

fuck and diss."Adam said and walked away. I watched him walking away in shock and silence. I didn't expect him to be so blunt. I leaned on a blue locker. I watched him sit at a new table and start flirting with a girl. And I watched her push him away playfully. That was me five months ago. Flirting with Adam and playing with him and falling for his charm,but underneath it all was the boy who broke girls hearts even if he never had them. "What'd he say to you?"Ashley and Blake asked me breaking me out of my thoughts. "We broke up,that's it. Honestly,I'm fine with it,never been happier."I said and leaned off the locker and my phone rang. Hundred Dollar Bail~Cold Forty-three ringtone. "Running like we crossed the border,got us locked up and court-ordered. Four Four Lokos,Three Amigos,Two Dos Equis,Un Problemo."The ringtone sung. "Who is that?"Ashley asked. I looked down and noticed it said Unknown number. I noticed Blake's hands behind his back. "Don't Know."I said and answered the phone. "Hello?"I asked curiously. Blake brought his right hand to his ear and smiled sweetly. "Hey,Jules."A voice on the other end of the phone said,that voice belonged to Blake Himself. I hung up automatically and glared at Ashley. She smiled confusedly,but I could see through that smile that she was mentally smirking. "Ashley,how does Blake have my number."I asked her and Blake put his hand on my shoulder. I automatically felt tingles "Because I gave it to him,come on. Now,that Adam's out of the picture you two would look so good together."Ashley whispered,blushing slightly. I looked at Blake and smirked. I crossed my arms over my chest. "Is this your confession for your undeniable love for me,or is Ashley just high on Kush."I asked him and he-without really realising- began drawing random patterns on my shoulder. "Ashley's high on drugs."He said while chuckling. "Ashley!"A male voice boomed. We all turned to look at Mr. Harrow. Blake quickly removed his hand from my shoulder. I just whimpered from the loss of his touch. The tingles were now gone. "Hey,Mr.Harrow."Ashley said and Blake almost laughed at how beyond mad Mr. Harrow seemed. I just gave a throaty chuckle. "Ashley,please tell me you are not on drugs."Mr.Harrow said. "No,sir. My brother was talking to my best friend about...never mind that but point being I'm not even on drugs. Unless you count Gummy Bears as drugs then lock me away."Ashley sighed dramatically and held out her wrists as she expected Mr. Harrow to put the cuffs on her. "Gummy Bears are not drugs. Just disgusting little chewy candies."Mr. Harrow said and walked away,shaking his head and chuckling. "Well,we got away with that. SO,anybody up for pizza?"Blake asked and we all said yes just as the bell rang ending lunch. "Never mind then. After school maybe?"Blake suggested. "Yeah,see you then Mr. Costello."I said and his smile faltered but he quickly regained composure and walked away half-smiling. "WHat's wrong with him.?"I asked Ashley. "He like is when YOU say his full name. He has a thing for you,I'm telling ya."Ashley said and we walked to maths together since we had the same class.
*************
It was now English and Ashley and I were walking to Blake's class. We-meaning only me-were so happy to get to class that I dragged Ashley,she was literally dragging her feet. "Please,let me skip with Johnny!"She whisper-yelled. Johnny was a fling of hers and he knew it too. They were Friends With Benefits,promising each other not to fall in love. But,only I could see the way he affected her when he talked to her,she blushed like crazy,she sometimes stuttered when he brought going to the Janitors closet. Their new makeshift 'bedroom' And it was only the first day of school. "No,I wanna see Blake."As i said that I slammed right into a hard chest. "And why would you wanna see me?"I looked up to see the voice belonged to none other than Blake himself. He had a huge smirk on his face and his hands were on my upper arms steadying me. "Um,because I love English class. I even have a shirt to prove it."I said and he shook his head chuckling. God,I'd do anything to make him chuckle again. "Really? You do?"He asked and now he was full on laughing. "Um,yeah."I said while blushing in embarrassment. I really did have a shirt lie that. "Aw,she's blushing."Blake said while putting his finger under my chin,making me look at him,also succeeding in making me blush even harder. I bet I looked like the world's ripest tomato. I jerked my head out of his reach,making me have a pain on the right side of my head,right behind my earlobe. "Okay,that was maybe too hard."I said while holding the right side of my head. "You get those kind of things when you get old. Now,go and look at the screen projector and take your assigned seats. Thank you,bug."Blake said and I just glared at him. "Bug? Really?"I asked him as I got a few strange glances from other students entering the classroom. "Yeah,cause you're a pain in the arse."He said in a fake british accent. "Fine,by the time class is over I'll have an annoying nickname for you."I promised and walked in the classroom dragging Ashley behhind me. I looked at the screen and found our seats,which were right next to each other,and in front of Blake's desk. Once the tardy bell rang,Blake walked in closing the door behid him and started talking. "Good evening class. My name is Blake Costello,unlesss I give you permission to call me by my first name then it's Mr. Costello to all of you. The only exceptions are Juliet and Ashley."He said. I blushed scarlett and Ashley groaned in annoyance. "But,why them sir?"Some chick asked him. "Because,Juliet is my best friend and Ashley,well she's my sister,so I atleast have Juliet to hang out with when Ashley wants to go shopping."He said and I laughed. "You tell 'em Blake."I said raising my fist in the air,doing a fist pump type thing and putting it back down. "You hate shopping?"A girl asked me,looking at me as if I were foreign. "With a passion."I said and Blake chuckled. "Me,too. A reason why werre best friends."Blake said and I blushed. "I only drag you because I love you guys."Ashley said putting a hand over her heart and giving him a dorky face. Blake and I both looked at each other and back at Ashley and burst out laughing. We went on talking and laughing while students(girls) gave me the 'Death' glare. I laughed at them like Bitch can I help you? Which earned me more glares. "Hey,Blake? I'm hungry."Ashley said and Blake looked at me and I smiled and shrugged. Everyone looked at us three(Blake,Ashley and I.)
"We still on for pizza?"Blake asked looking at me,not Ashley. In response to his question,my stomach growled. I blushed and sheepishly smiled. "I'll take that as a yes."He said and I shyly chuckled. "So? Where are we gonna eat?"Ashley whined. Blake again looked at me. "Why do you keep looking at me for an answer?"I asked him shyly,still embarrased from my stomach growling. "Cause,I haven't been here the longest and I kinda need you to show me around."He answered. "You know this town by heart."Ashley muttered to herself,but I heard it. I grinned widely,so widely that I thought my cheeks would break. "Sure,I'll be your tour buddy."I said and it was his turn to grin widely. "Or. I can be your tour guide. I can even show you how to get from here to my house."A cheer slut said,she turned to look at me and smirked viciously. "I know,Jules better. So,no Monnica."He said and I almost laughed at her raged face. "Fine,I didn't even want to guide you anyway. That's the slut's job!"She yelled. "Slut? Where do you get off calling other people sluts! Last time I checked you were having sex with Mr. Freeman. Yup,you got him locked up for it too,just because you couldn't keep your legs closed."Ashley defended me. Somehow,I couldn't help but feel like she was also giving me advice on to keep it secret if I ever got with her brother. "Bitch."The cheerslut said and turned away from Ashley and began talking to her friends. "So? Anybody up for Pizza-Hut?"I asked Ashley and Blake. "They have the stuffed crust pizza! Hell,yeah! Let's go there Blake,please?"Ashley asked him giving him the puppy eyes. "I'm up for stuffed crust."He said and I smirked. "You're paying."I told him,crossing my arms over my chest. He smiled even wider. "Now,bug. What kind of man would I be if I didn't pay for my favorite woman."He said to me. "Hey!"Ashley exclaimed playing mock offense. "The kind of man who would definitely not be in my good books."I said. "Hey,I'm still offended,Blake."Ashley said. "Calm down,I said Women,not woman."He said,his cheeks turning a faint pink if you looked real close. "So,Jules have you come up with an annoying name for me?"Blake asked me. I smiled real wide. "I have a few."I smirked evilly. Ashley gave me a few suggestions based off her memories. One nickname I totally found funny. It was back when Ashley and Blake still lived with their parents-Ashley got emancipated and moved in with Blake- and Blake just so appened to be walking by Ashley's room going to the bathroom in only Superman boxers. "So,what's the name?"Blake asked me. I looked at Ashley and we both laughed evilly,earning the whole class' attention. "Mr. Superman."I said and his whole face got red. He looked at Ashley and we busted out laughing. "You told her that! I am so going to tell mom!"Blake said. "Yeah,I told her that story,she's my best friend. Who wouldn't want to know about-"Blake jumped out of his seat and covered her mouth with his hand. "Gosh,Ashley! The whole world doesn't need to know about my whole life."Blake said. Ashley licked his palm,making Blake take his hand away and wipe it on his jeans. "Ew! Ashley,you're gross."Blake said and the bell rang ending the day. "Okay,tomorrow we will be talking about Shakespeare and his leterature."Blake said as everyone went out the classroom. Ashley and I stayed and packed our things. "So,do you wanna go in Blake's car or do you want me to drive your car?"Ashley asked me as Blake was waiting by the classroom door. "You can ride with me and I'll follow Ashley to your house and we can drop all our stuff off at your house."Blake said excitedly. "Seems like a plan!"I said excitedly. "Okay,let's go."Blake said and Ashley got my keys from me and Blake and I went to the school's front doors. "So...what kind of pizza do you want?"Blake said. It sounded like he was gonna say something,but didn't. "Stuffed crust cheese pizza."I say excitedly. "Same old Juliet. Always wanting the cheese."He said laughing. I punch him in the shoulder playfully. He punched me back playfully. "You know me,I'm in love with cheese."I said and he gasped. "I'm hurt,Jules."He said,holding his heart in mocvk hurt. "Oh,you know I love you just the same."I said and heard a gasp. We turned and saw the principal standing behind us,hands on hips and everything. "I'm being compared to cheese."Blake expalined. "Very good cheese."I added. "Stuffed crust pizza cheese."He said. "Oh,my bad. I just took things into assumption. Where are you going anyway?"She asked. "I owe her and Ashley pizza,because I promised them pizza after school."Blake said. "Who is Ashley and this young lady?"She asked,eying me,not suspiciously,but I was pretty sure she was checking me out. "Ashley is my sister and this is my best friend. I went to her house this morning and we all got ready for school at her house,well I didn't I was already ready,so Ashley just had to get ready at her house."Blake said. "And where's Ashley?"The principal asked. "She's driving my car to my house,because there's only room for two in Blake's car."I said.
