Damaged Hearts

14-Pompoms

It's now Friday.

Yesterday Liv came over to help me with the pre lab work.

We spent about five minutes on it before she insisted on having me watch this funny video she saw on YouTube.

After that we had dinner with my family.

My mom made 'organic' chicken casserole.

I watched as Liv tried to choke it down.

Every time my mom asked her how it was she would say it was the best chicken casserole she had ever had.

I don't think she was lying. I am sure my moms chicken casserole was the one and only chicken casserole she has ever had.

She also ended up spending the night in Cora's room.

Just two doors down and my mind was stuck on her.

I wonder if she thinks about me late at night.

"Hey pompoms." Willy says and I see Liv coming over to sit with us.

She's in her cheer uniform and her hair is up.

Setting her bag down she sits beside me.

"Why are you sitting with us?" Toby asks as he rests his forearms on the table.

Liv pulls out a bag of chips from her backpack.

"Tutoring Alex, or thats what I told Cora." She says before opening them.

There isn't anything she can really tutor me on but she pretends to.

I know how apprehensive she was about taking my parents money but she needs it for her car.

Besides without knowing it she does calm me.

And her being here right before a lab could help.

Maybe.

I am hoping it does because I do not want to take my meds.

"Are you guys coming to the game tonight?" Liv asks and the guys burst out laughing.

She gives them a confused look.

"Why would we go?" Willy asks and she shrugs.

"School spirit?"

Toby snorts, "Do we look like we have school spirit?"

"You could." She offers and Willy shakes his head.

"Theres not way you'd catch me at a football game."

She rolls her eyes, "Wow you guys are so cool and different." She says sarcastically.

"Thanks pompoms." Willy says, batting his eye lashes.

She throws a chip at him.

"Why do you guys wear such fat ass bows on your head?" Willy asks.
