1.. 2.. 3..

And the bell rings, I swear I'm the most exhausted person here

I rub my eyes and exit the classroom just to bump into a wall

"Ugh" I groan to myself

"You should be more careful next time sunshine"

I look up to see Bryce giving me a smirk "oh hey" I gave a tired smile which earned me a kiss on the head

"What are you doing after school"

"Hm let's see, homework, homework, trying to get my mom to actually speak to me, and oh wait did I mention homework?"

He chuckles which makes me do a little victory dance inside my head

"Well if you can, try to stop by my house today"

"Can't but maybe tomorrow"

"You have been dodging me for a week now"

He's right I have but he says it with a little smiling showing me he's playing around

"Shutup, I'll talk to you later"

We head separate ways and text kenzie

Me- hey you wanna come over tonight? 

Kenz- yeah ofc be there in 15

When i get to my house I still have 10 minutes to pick out an outfit that doesn't make me want to die

It took me forever to pick something

I pulled out two sweaters and one hoodie to try to figure out what I should wear. I also pulled out one green crop top with spaghetti straps just in case I felt like today was the day I would finally show my arms

I went with the white hoodie and black leggings and ran downstairs when I heard the beep of her parked car

She ran up and hugged me

"Heyoo, by the way I invited over kyle..is that okay?"

"Yeah sure I don't care"

We walked to my room and I went to go pick out a movie to watch but stopped when she started talking

"Why don't you wear this" she said with a little hesitation in her voice

She was looking at the green shirt I sprawled on my bed a little before she came over And I just stood there frozen

"Or not" she said quickly

"Um no I was just thinking since we are watching a movie I should be more cuddly" I gave a small smile

"What if we don't watch a movie"

What?! Not watch a movie? Okay them my presence is going to be really boring

I try to think of things pulling stuff from my brain but I got nothing

"Let's go to the park near your house, it'll be hot over there" her eyes seemed hopeful, I didn't want to let her down

"Kenz.."

"Please? It'll be fun and I'll text Kyle to meet us there and everything"

I sigh and nod my head

She passed me the shirt and I just stared at it

"Um..can you turn around please.."

"Oh yeah, of course, sorry"

She turned around and I felt bad.

It's not like she hasn't seen me in a bra and underwear before we have known eachother for so long it's insane but I just felt more vulnerable
