Wishing On The Stars {c.h}

F O U R T E E N

Sounds of footsteps and sliding cloth-hangers woke me up. Who could it possibly be? I quietly slip out of bed and walk over to the closet, where Jenna was currently putting on a shirt.
"Hey," I say in my morning voice, which sounds like shit. "Why are you up so early?"

"I had a lot of fun last night!" she replies. Only one thing popped into my mind, I don't know why, but it did.

"Jenna!" I yell. Her eyes grew wide, probably just realizing what I was referring to.

"No! No!" She defended. "I was with Ashton, at the library, talking." Wait, did she just say what I think she just said?

"Ashton?" I question.

"I know you're not talking Ashton West because I know him and when you have Honor's English, I have calculus. And Ashton West is my class." I can feel the color draining out of my face. "I didn't catch his last name, but he's pretty awesome, and hot." I loosen up. "By the way, how did Calum go?"

"Um, good." I simply answer. Jenna glares at me with one of her looks. "Spill," she demands.

"Alright, fine, it was the most amazing night of my life. He took me to this place that looks over the whole city. It was honestly magical." She gave me 'get-to-the-action' gesture. "No, we did not kiss. We were so fricking close! But, I did get a kiss on the cheek, which is a-okay with me. Now, let's talk about Ashton."

"What about him? He's great! Though he seemed like a bit nervous when I first saw him, is he new or something?" She asks. I don't know what exactly came over me but I started to get a bit mad. Jenna was the 'she' Ashton keeps talking about. Jenna makes him want to hate himself. It's Jenna's fault for everything that happened to Ashton!

"NO!" I scream. "Jenna! You just noticed him? He isn't new!!"

"What did I s--"

"HE'S A REAL PERSON, HELLO? JENNA, HOW CAN YOU BE SUCH A BITCH?" I interrupt.

"EXCUSE ME?!?"

"ASHTON IS NOT INVISIBLE, WHY DIDN'T YOU KNOW HIM BEFORE??" There was no real reason for me to be angry, but I was anyways.

"HOW WOULD I KNOW? YOU'RE BEING AN ASS!!"

"Well, this ass doesn't want to be your roommate anymore." I hear myself say. Do I really want to do this? Just for the sake of one boy?

"Fine, Liah! The fuck's gotten into you?" she yells. I really thought she would've wanted me to stay, I guess not.

"What's gotten into me? Your bitchiness. Hey! Don't spend more then ten minutes in the same room as Jenna or else you'll be a bitch too!" I shoot back. I'm done, I'm so done with her.

"GET OUT!!" She demands.

"More than happy to." I confirm and slam the door on my way out. The sound of something falling and crashing made me stop and wonder if I should go back in there. No. So I run. I run away from her.

Once I reach the end of the hallway, where the emergancy stairs are, I look down. I am still wearing the outfit from yesterday, I'm glad I didn't change.The stairs are cold against the short dress that I am wearing. Cold light comes from the small light bulb above me. Well, I can't go back to Jenna. And I can't go anywhere else.

What the hell did I just get myself into?
