. Blisss
I took an extra hour to get ready today .
It is the 1 st day of my Sophomore year.
But it is a little bit bitter sweet for me . My long time boyfriend Alex Easton or should I say ex boyfriend , we decided to call or quits since he moved to England to study . I am so
Proud of him . But I miss him . And I am stuck here .
That being said I am still excited to go
To school really learning just excites
Me .
But I also want to see how everyone is . I have not seen anyone over the summer , expect my best friend
Cassie Stand . We hung out all the time like we always do , She had a few boyfriends none of them lasted over 2 weeks , my best friend is beautiful and she knows how to get attention.
I get a FaceTime from Alex and I get excited for like the 4 th time this morning.
" Hey there Alex "
I squeal
" There is my girl , how. Are you on this fine morning in the USA I am about to go
To sleep." He tells me
His voice sounds different actually he
Looks different .
His hair is curly like always but it
Is extra messy . His lips look swollen.
I hear a voice or tv in the background.
" Bliss wanted to wish you good luck on today"
He tells me
I can't speak because I see a sea of yellow hair laying beside him .
" Bliss are you ok baby " he asks
I know what is happening and I knew it would happen but I didn't think it would happen now .
" oh shit , iii" he stutters
I guess he realize I can see her .
" It is ok "
I say but I am holding back tears
I have no right to be mad we broke up and it is not like I could except him to not
Date .
He walks into another room .
" I didn't think that you could see her I don't I am sorry" he tells me
He puts his hand on his mouth .
Alex is not a bad guy I know he did not mean to hurt me .
" Alex I am just surprised is all you did nothing wrong ."I tell him
After another 15 minutes of me trying to convince my ex that I am ok we finally hang up .
I cry for a few minutes.
I look in the mirror at myself it just pops in my head that I need not to be upset he deserve to be happy , and I do too . Even though I know there is no one at school that I would
Want to date maybe someone new will start this year .
I will myself to get done and head down to eat breakfast.
My mother is not a cook but on the 1 st day of school she does a feast it is like she makes up for the rest of the year .
I don't mind I like to just get a yogurt or fruit on the way.
My best friend Cassie walks in just like a kimmy Gilber fashion from full house but she is not annoying at all and my family loves Cassie as much as I do .
My mood has changed with This good food and my family .
I always feel so blessed when we just hang .
" You are in a dream world pumpkin "
My father says
"She is just excited for school" my mother chimes in
" Well that makes one of us " Cassie says as she throws a half eaten piece of bacon on her plate.
" Cassie it is going to be great " I beam
She just give me a look like I don't know what I am talking about .
I always look
At the bright side of things .
Even when my sister Daphne
Left it was hard and still is but I know there is nothing I can do
About it .
We gather our things and head for the door .
" If I had a car I could get there quicker" I yell out
My parents yell back
" not anytime soon ."
We both stop and look at Ridgeway high .
I take a. Deep breath.
I think me and my best friend stop for different reasons .
I stop because I am excited, but Cassie is trying to prolong it .
" We should just walk in it will not be no better if wait any longer ." I tell her she rolls her eyes but she starts to walk
The halls look the same . I find myself remembering Alex .
How we use to make out by my locker .
Thank God I got a different locker this year .
I see the stairs where we had a fight at the spring formal last year then I see the spot where we made up at after the spring formal we had made out for like 40 mins straight .
Mr. Stewart had to pull us apart.
" B you are acting sad or something it is the first day I am supposed to be the one acting all depressed ." She complains
I let out a breathe as I walk to my locker and put my stuff in .
She follows me and gives me a look like why am I not explaining myself. And really I should . I mean she is my best friend . I should have told her on the way here . But I was embarrassed.
" It is Alex " I blurt out
" Did he forget to call you on the first day see the time difference is so hard." She rambles
" No he FaceTimed " I say
" Oh " she says her forehead gets small lines from scrunching .
" He has moved on it is official " I say
My voice crackes
" Aww B" she says
" It is fine we knew it would happen " I say
" That don't make it hurt any less " my sweet concerned friend says
" I was not expecting to see it " I say
" No it is always hard to see a ex move on , it is hard for me to see some of those boys I dated with a new girl that is why I want to always be the one to move on first ." She says
She hugs me . She then she pats down her wine color blue Jean skirt .
" Hey you know what let's have fun , let's find you a boy " she says and she is all excited
" Cassie I am not ready "' I say as I put on my lipstick
I may not be looking for a man right now but I still want to look good .
" Please just a little double date if you don't like him you won't have to go out with him again , I will chose please " she begs
" Can Bliss Peterson report to the principal office." Comes over the loud speaker
Both of our eyes gets as big as quarters .
" What could this be about " I say while a million different reason swirl in my head .
