James started yelling my name but I was scared I would start lashing out on him so I tried to ignore him.
I began sprinting until finally I was at my neighborhood and he was still behind me.
"James please just leave me alone."
He slowed down but kept following.
"I'm not going to leave you like this Bloom."
"....James please......"
"What did I do wrong?"
"YOU RUINED MY LIFE!"
I began slowly balling and he came closer.
He hugged me and I sobbed into his shoulder because even at that moment when I hated him he was being super sweet.
I continued to sob until I calmed down.
I looked up and wiped away my tears.
"Bloom I'm sorry."
"It's really not your fault James."
"What's not my fault?"
"I have a girlfriend and she f*cking hates me."
"Oh I'm sorry,
Anyone that can't accept your mistakes isn't worth it.
Trust me I know."
"Why what happened to you?"
"Nina happened."
"What did that b*tch do exactly?"
"Well I had to miss the dance because my mom kind of went into a coma from a car crash that same morning,
And she was p*ssed."
"HOLY SH*T THAT B*TCH!
I'M GOING TO KILL THAT GIRL I SWEAR TO GOD."
"Please don't."
"I'll try."
I laughed and walked with him.
"Before the movie would you maybe want to come over for dinner?
My Aunt's making PIZZZZA!"
And he knew I was in love with pizza.
Yup.
"OMG REALLY THAT WOULD BE AMAZING!"
"I'll walk you home and then we can walk over to my place?"
"Sounds like a plan."
I giggled and smiled up at him.
"Oh and one more thing."
"Yes?"
"My parents won't be there."
"Oh why not? I would really like to meet them."
"Well my moms at the hospital."
"Oh is she working extra shifts?"
"My mom isn't a doctor,
She's in a coma."
"Oh..... I'm sorry, but what about your dad."
"Maybe some other time you could meet my dad....."
"Alright."
"My family sort of has a dark past Bloom. I need to warn you of that."
"As far as I know your the sweetest guy I've ever met."
He laughed and I giggled.
He wrapped his hand around my waist and walked me home.
But my mind always went back to the fact that,
I still have a girlfriend.
