*many months later :P*

God damnit.

I can't believe it.

I caught feelings...

In the worst way possible.

John is dating Martha, some blond haired blue eyed girl. And my dumbass caught feelings. Great.

So much for being a emotionless robot.

Now i have feelings for a guy who is my friend, and i don't know what to do. For now, im just laying low, telling everyone I've got homework and chores to do. Which is true, but i don't know how long i can keep lying to them. Im surprised they never found out what i actually am yet, since i wear a hoodie like a l l the t i m e. Ya think that would raise their suspicion.

Or their just nice people who don't want to dig into other's business.

I mean, im good with that ain't like im gonna tell them anytime soon that "hEy guYs iM paRt roBoT bEcuAse i gOt inTo a cAr accIdenT!"

Enough with the pointless rambling, right now im writing what i just previously said into my journal.

Because im low-key avoiding my mom because im suppose to do the dishes but i don't want to-

;-;

I write for like, who knows how long and i hear my mom call my name.

"ALEX! YOUR FRIENDS ARE HERE!"

My heart races and my eyes go wide. What the fuck now?! When where why how-

i waSn't ReAdy fOr tHis tO rAndoMly haPPen ThE fUck bRo-

I close my journal and shove it into my drawer, then slip on my hoodie to hide my metal arm thing.

"COMING!" I yell back and and run to the living room. My eyes meet the familiar faces of Peggy and John. And for once, John didn't have his dumb gf with him.

"Y'all have fun, don't do drugs." My mom says, and then walks away. I stand there awkwardly, then Peggy shoves John inside and closed the door.

"Hi."

"..hi."

"Care to explain why you never hang out anymore?" Peggy said, putting her hand on her hip.

"Um... I've been busy."

She narrows her golden brown eyes at me, totally not buying what i said. "Oh really. Busy with what?"

"...school stuff mostly"

"M h m..." She replies, as if im telling her a lie.

I mean im not fully lying right-

"Peggy, leave the boy be. School is hell just m o v e  o n ." John says, and peggy huffs.

Thank god for john aMirIgHt, the awkward tension was thicc for a moment.

"Yeah.. Ok."

"Great. Now lets go get ice cream I've been craving it since i woke up!" John says, and smiles at me.

I don't know why he smiled at me, but it made me feel butterflies in my stomach. Just his smile makes me all mushy.. To bad he has dumb martha.

"Let's gO! WE'LL BE BACK ALEX'S MOM!" Peggy shouts and grabs my arm. My stomach plummeted, and my heart beated fast instantly.

That's my robot arm..
