Rejection

Chapter 2: Be My Boyfriend

"What was that about? Why did she kiss me?" I asked myself as I laid on my bed

"So does this mean she likes me? No no, no way. She was just messing with me. Plus Ben likes her" I told myself, "Should I tell him?"

"No. I don't think I should tell him. Yeah, why should I tell him? It's not really a big deal, It's not like she confessed her undying love or anything. It was just a kiss. She just thinks I'm cute nothing more. Wait did you seriously think I'm cute though?" I said, "No stop it. Ben likes her. Yeah, it was just a kiss idiot. Stop thinking about it. I bet she's not thinking about it at all"

"I need to go to sleep," I said closing my eyes.

The next time I opened my eyes morning had come and I was waiting by the bus stop with Ben at my side

"Sup Alex?" he smiled as we did the handshake but this was oddly the handshake from yesterday and I found it weird

"Um..hey Ben," I said nervous for some reason.

"That greeting sounded weird man, Are you okay? Did something happen?" he asked

"Something? Something like what. I'm totally cool, calm, and collected"

"You sure?"

"Positive man"

"Oh, so you didn't kiss her?"

"Her?" I asked confused

"Elizabeth."

"What?"

"You son of a bitch. I can't believe you"

"Chill Ben it's not what it seems?" I said

"Screw you!" he yelled charging at me with his fist held high

"It was a mistake! She kissed me!!" I yelled jumping up. It turned out I was dreaming. One thing I always found weird about myself was if I felt guilty about something I'd dream about it. It annoys me to no end but I guess my conscience is just more influential than others

"What am I feeling guilty about. She's the one that kissed me" I said with my face in my palm

"What are you talking about weirdo?" Amanda asked walking into my room, "Who kissed you?"

"No one"

"No way you definitely said she's the one that kissed me," she said

"Is that really what you came in here for you little brat?" I asked desperate to dodge the question

"Oh yeah Mom told me to wake you up," she said

"Okay, I'm up. So you can leave now"

"Whatever, Just tell your friend that I want the hundred bucks he owes me," she said before leaving

I sighed before getting out of bed... After a quick shower, I found myself in the kitchen where my mom was waiting for me with a glass of milk in her hand

"Good morning" I yawned as I walked in

"Good morning to you too Alex. Are you okay?" Mom asked reaching out the glass to me

"Yeah, why?" I asked

"You look tired," she said as I down the milk in one gulp

"No I'm fine I just had a bad dream," I said

"Yeah he jumped up screaming she kissed me," Amanda said walking into the kitchen with her bag on her back and her matching lunch kit in her hand

"Who were you kissing?" Mom asked curiously
