Chapter 14

I woke up Wednesday morning with a smile on my face for a change. I had to admit it was nice to be able to look in the mirror and not see a haggard version of myself. I went into my bathroom to get a shower, then went through my closet in search of something cute to wear.

Wyatt kept popping up in my mind while I was getting ready and was the main reason why I picked out what I did to wear to school. I picked a pair of skinny jeans, a pale pink sweater, and a pair of black flats. I had extra time to curl my hair, since I woke up almost an hour early. I fluffed my hair, making sure to not pull the curls out at the ends. My makeup was natural because I didn’t want to make it too obvious as to what I was doing. I did feel guilty, but then again, Hunter hadn’t talked to me since he left Sunday evening.

“Good morning, Londyn.” Valerie sat a plate of cinnamon rolls down on the counter.

“You look pretty this morning.”

“Thanks, Valerie.”

“I’m guess Hunter finally talked to you after I left last night?” She smiled, handing me a glass.

“Look at you!” Jules hollered, walking into the kitchen. She had a reason to dress up for school. She saw Asher a lot throughout the school day.

“What about me?” I asked, looking down at my clothes.

“I think she looks beautiful.” Valerie smiled.

“She does. Did you ask her why she looks this way?” Jules winked.

“Hunter talked to her last night, finally.”

“No. It’s not Hunter.” Jules tilted her head, looking over at me with a smirk on her face.

“Not Hunter?”

“Nope.”

Valerie stood there looking swapping glances between us as if she were watching a tennis match. “Someone tell me something;” she blurted out.

“I will since Londyn is still in denial. Wyatt came over last night. He really likes her.”

“Jules, he’s just a friend,” I snapped.

“Yeah. Keep telling yourself that.” She pointed her finger at me, moving it up and down.

“Did you ever think maybe I did this for myself?”

“Sure, you did.” She laughed.

“Wow, you look great, Londyn,” Gavin said, moving away from my locker. “I haven’t seen Wyatt this morning yet.”

“This isn’t for Wyatt!” I yelled.

“Yeah. Sure.”

“Can’t a girl dress up without having a motive behind it?”

“Umm. No.” He laughed.

I could never lie to Gavin no matter how hard I tried he would always know I was lying. The real question to be asked was…Am I lying to myself about Wyatt?

“Is it obvious?” I asked, looking into a little mirror hanging up on the inside of my locker door.

“Not to those that don’t know you that well.” He nudged me with his elbow. “I’m rather jealous myself. I was really hoping to be with him. All he talked about was you before we got to your house. No offense, he was starting to annoy me. That is how much he was talking about you.”

“Really?”

“Come on, before we are late to class,” he said, closing my locker for me.
