If That's the Way It's Gonna Be: Part 7

They walked into school holding hands as if they had been together forever. They were Maria and Jake. The happiest and ever so cutest couple you would ever see. Ever. My eyes started to water as my heart started to beat faster. Jake was a hot face heart stealing jerk. I couldn’t stand him any longer. Maria gave him a kiss on the cheek and walked over to her locker which just so happened to be next to mine.
“Hey,” she said as she opened up her locker. I didn’t reply. I had enough of her, too.
“Hi!” she said this time looking me in the eyes.
“Hi,” I mumbled.
“Guess what? Never mind, I’m not gonna make you guess. I’ll just tell you! Jake’s my boyfriend! Aren’t you so happy for me?” I would of said yes but I wanted to say no. I would of nodded my head but I wanted to shake my head or shrug my shoulders. I would of did a girly happy dance with her but I really wanted to scream in her face.
“Well, you know what? Just because Jake’s into me and used you doesn’t mean you have to be a brat about it!” She left.
