Again, criticism please?? I know it seems boring, but it's what actually happened. As it's happening me and my friend write down what happens to me so I can remember it all exactly, because I'm like that. Yeah.
Pulling my arms away from Jeff with a hurt look on my face, I backed off a couple of steps. “Thanks. For talking about me, you know.”
Turning away from them I looked at the ground as I walked away. I heard Tobi shouting after me, but I just shook my head and ignored him.
“C’mon Mia, he was saying nice stuff! Come back!”
At least they had the sense to leave me and not come after me. I know I said I don’t let them see my strength, but that’s not entirely true. They’ve realised quite fast that if I’m pissed off I can summon a mean punch. And there’s no point trying to chase me even if they can take it, because slow as I am at running usually I get really fast when I’m pissed off too. Being pissed off for me is like being on drugs, I get adrenalin rushes that last until it’s worn off.
As soon as I stepped outside of the store I turned to my left and walked back to the park. When I got there, instead of walking over to the normal hang out spot for both my groups of friends, I stomped to the kiddie park. Sitting on the higher swing of the two that are there, I wrapped the chains around my arms and leant backwards. Because of how the swing is made, practically only my head moved. I mean, the rest of my torso moved a little, but the chains on my arms held me in place. Sighing, I closed my eyes. God, guys are so annoying!

My jaw set, I returned to a normal position and unwound my arms, taking my phone from my back pocket and pressing the decline button to my incoming call without even looking at the screen.
I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking, why would she do that? It might be her mother. Well, you’re wrong. Because everyone in my contacts list has their own personal message and call tone. And it just so happens that Bad Romance by Lady Gaga is the tone I set for Jeff. I’ve got a thing about having ring tones which apply to how I feel about someone, or that remind me of someone. And my romance with Jeff is hardly a good one. Hasn’t been for a good few months now. Sure, he thinks everything’s fine between us, but I don’t. It hasn’t been for a long time, through no fault of Jeff’s fault. I’ll admit it’s my fault, because if it weren’t for my stupid hormones making me like two other guys everything would be fine.
There, I’ve said it. I like two guys that aren’t my boyfriend. I’m a bad person, get over it.
God, it’s such an annoying predicament! I go out with Jeff, who I see all the time around school and every weekend without fail, because even if I’m at work he comes into the store I work at and says hi, then just waits for my break so we can talk. Like seriously, he does that. It’s really bad, because it’s so good of him. It just makes me feel really bad that I don’t like him as much as I used to when we first started dating. Because I can’t like him as much if I also like Kyle and Casper. I’m not going to explain anything about them now, but maybe I will later. If I feel like it. Because at the moment, I don’t feel like letting anyone other than Eva anything about my current life.

“Oh my God dude just feck off!” I ignored my phone and groaned. This time, I’d got a text. I could tell because my incoming calls vibrate, but texts don’t they just make a lot of noise. I’ve got a really strange phone, but it’s useful for knowing when to decline a call and when to just leave it. As the phone shut up, I sighed and shook my head. “Fecking boys causing trouble. It would be so much easier if they didn’t fecking exist.”
“Ouch, paint us all with the same brush why don’t you? And I’m not sure feck is a real word either.”
Squealing, the eyes I’d just closed flung open and I went flying backwards, landing once again on my back but this time without a smooth floor under me. Because the kids park is filled with bark. Groaning, I righted myself and stood quickly, brushing bark off me. Except from the part of my back I couldn’t reach. Which is annoying, because I’m wearing white.
“Feck is a word, it’s Irish for ********. And who the hell are you?!” I spoke before I actually looked at the guy, but when I did look at him I squealed again. “Oh My God! Kyle! But you’re supposed to be in Workington!”
Taking a step towards him, I wrapped my arms around him and hugged him tightly. He hugged back, but his arms were near my upper back anyway because he’s so goddamn tall! He laughed and I pulled away from him, sitting back on my swing and watching as he sat on the one next to me.
“Well, tada, I’m not! Band practice was cut way short because our drummer kinda had an accident with the drum sticks and now he’s in casualty, but that’s not important. Anyhow, when he ended up leaving with his blood trail, I found myself thinking, ‘what should i do now?’, so then I remembered you had said we should meet up and caught a train. You’re not busy are you? You said I could hang out with you and your other girl friends but… Yeah…”
My eyes sparkled and I smiled brightly. “No, I’m not busy! Not at all! Except I’ve kinda invited a different group of friends down now… My guys
friends instead of my girl friends. So, Jeff’s down too…”
“Well, that’s fine, I just wont tell him how much I like his beloved and he’ll hopefully be fine with me tagging along.”
Oh, did I forget to mention? Kyle likes me just like I like him. And he doesn’t mind that I have a boyfriend, because he has a girlfriend. We only meet like, once a month or something, and always with loads of other people around, so nothing ever happens. Kinda. We do sometimes end up alone but whatever. Grinning, I grabbed his hand and pulled him up, then started to lead him towards the town center.
“C’mon then, time to meet the nerd herd. They’re probably still busy talking to Fat Chris.” Kyle held on tightly to my hand and stopped suddenly, so suddenly I found myself behaving like a boomerang and flying backwards into him. Letting out a small oof sound I looked up at him and saw the smile on his face. As he leant down, I went up onto my tiptoes and gave him a quick kiss. He smiled into it and it nearly started to last longer, but he went to move closer and I lost balance. I took a step backwards to keep my balance and shook my head.
“We can’t do that! We’re both taken! ‘Tard.”
He scowled as I started to lead him away again, but I ignored it. After all, I’m was doing the right thing. Right?
