✿ heavy heart ✿

'I turned around and saw them. Francesca saw me and smirked, grabbing Luke's collar and smashing their lips together. I went to run, but my feet seemed like they were glued to the floor. I tried to scream, but no sound would come out. Luke separated the kiss and looked over at me.

"You're just jealous. Like I'll ever love you." He said evilly going back to making out with his girlfriend.'

I woke up in a cold sweat. I gasped shooting up from my bed, my heart beating so damn fast. I put my hand to my chest and looked around.

I woke up from that dream... That..nightmare.

Looking towards the clock, it read 3:18 a.m. I sighed, still trying to catch my breath.

Suddenly I heard the door click open. I turned to who's going to come in.

"Ashlee?" Angela's tiny voice asked. Her face appeared behind the door. She closed it behind her and walked to my bed.

I picked her up from under her arms and looked at her. Her hair was a little messy, but her eyes looked wide awake. I placed her in front of me, her legs sitting in the Indian position.

"Why are you up?" I asked petting her hair, also blinking a couple times to adjust my eyes.

"I heard you, like you had a bad dream." Angela said looking down at my shirt.

"You didn't have to come in my room." I said patting a space next to me already knowing she might as well sleep with me.

Angela crawled next to me, sliding under my covers. We both put our heads into the pillows and we faced each other.

"What did you dream about?" Angela asked.

"Nothing important. It was just a dream anyways." I replied quickly. Angela nodded, yawning and rubbing her eyes.

"Go to sleep, you have school later." I said to her pulling the blanket up past my chest.

"Okay, goodnight, Ashlee."

"Goodnight."

Third period class, done. Now 6 more classes, kill me now.

Let's just say I'm not in a happy mood. I'm not angry either. I'm just down... Maybe it was the dream... Or when I saw Luke and Francesca making out right next to the school's entrance... Or when Francesca came up to me and told me everything she loved about Luke... Or when I saw both of them working on a worksheet from one of the classes... Fun day.

I'm not annoyed at Francesca. She's an awesome person. It's just that... She has everything I've been wanting, Luke. Okay that sounded really cliche.

And it's at the perfect timing too, right when I began to fall for Luke. Good job, Ashlee.

I walked to my 4th period class, Spanish. I took my usual seat and rested my head on my fist, propping my arm on the desk.

I waited for the bell to ring.

'Please dear God don't make this day any more worse than it already is.' I thought somehow feeling tears start to sting at the back of my eyes.

'No crying, Ashlee. You're in school. The day just started you'll be fine.' I repeated in my head.

The bell rang and the teacher welcomed us.

FINALLY!!!
The end of the day.

After packing my homework, I began walking to the school doors. Suddenly my name was called from behind me.

"Ashlee!!" Calum's voice came. I turned around to find him running towards me excitedly. I looked up at him with raised brows.

"We got an A on the mitosis model!!" He said with a huge smile. I grinned.

"That's awesome!!" I squealed hugging Calum. I felt him hug back, and man, his hugs are amazing. Then I pulled away from Calum, starting to fiddle with my shirt.

"Are you okay?" He asked looking down at me. I looked up at him and scratched my arm.

"Yeah?" I replied questionably. I'm probably faking it. Am I faking it? I'm happy we got the grade though. "I'm okay." I shrugged.

"Ashlee I know you. You're scratching your arm when you're lying about how you feel." Calum pointed out. I took back my hand and felt my cheeks heat up. "Oh.."

"Something wrong?" Calum asked. I turned to the school doors and began heading out.

"No, nothing's wrong. Everything's fine." I muttered quickly wanting to avoid this. But I felt a hand grab my wrist.

"Ashlee..." I turned back to Calum. "Does it have something to do with...you know.."

I looked down at the floor shamefully. Now since he said it, it sounds like the most stupidest reason.

"Calum, am I jealous?" I asked almost out of random. Calum took a step closer to me and I moved my head back up to look at him.

"Are you?" He added. I sighed, wiggling my wrist out from his hand.

"I mean, why do I have to like Luke now, right when he got a girlfriend? Why now?" I asked rhetorically. "This past month is almost like hell. I can't go a day without seeing Luke and Francesca hugging or kissing each other. Even when I'm at home, somehow they pop in my head." Calum only looked at me sympathetically.

I turned back out the school doors and took a step out. Calum followed me, walking me home while I rant.

"I dreamt about them last night, too." I added looking down at the ground.

"Really?" Calum asked turning his head towards me. I didn't look back at him, but I nodded.

"They were making out and Luke said something like, 'You're just jealous. I'll never love you.' I don't know it was weird." I shrugged fixing my backpack in my shoulders.

Calum only walked next to me and didn't say a word. I thought this situation was getting awkward.

"Sorry, I kinda just spilled everything onto you." I playing with my fingers. Calum slung his arm around my shoulders.

"Hey, what are best friends for?" He said with a smug grin in his tone.

I opened my house door and walked in. I put down my bag and jogged up the stairs to change into my pjs. Fortunately I don't have any homework, so that meant YouTube videos and Instagram binging until I sleep.

Today was an okay day. Before it wasn't so great, but after talking to Calum and me ranting to him, I feel better. Maybe tomorrow will be a better day.
