Amelia was so… SO damn glad she had finally escaped the mess that was that conversation with JP. Her mind went over his last words, the mention that she might still need tutoring if question 4 was hard - and part of her mind was reeling over the words. Though as she walked away from him and slipped into an empty classroom to get a hold of her damn self, she couldn’t help but reprimand herself for her idiotic actions. God who the hell… why couldn’t she just… not be her? Not act like an idiot. School… that was easy but social life… god for Amie, it was like a foreign language. Hell, it was like Spanish. She needed tutoring and even that wasn’t necessarily helping all the way.
“God I’m so dumb” Amie sighed, taking a seat on an empty desk as she put her head in her hands. Though honestly, Amie simply expected to stay there for the next few minutes until the bell rang… that was until, of course, she heard his voice. Him… being someone she had been avoiding like the plague for the past few months… him being one of her former closest friends… him… being a man she had a crush on for the past few years of her life and only having the courage to do something about it recently… though… they both knew how that went.
Amelia slowly looked up, almost hoping she was imagining things. Sadly, following along as the day had seemed to be going for her, her luck wasn’t the best. Standing in front of her, her heart stopped for a second as her eyes met Alex’s. She couldn’t help her mind going back to the last time she saw him, the way she heard his new song and simply… couldn’t stop herself from kissing him. Part of her always hoped… he felt the same way. Clearly… he didn’t.
For the next three months after… the incident… Amelia Grace avoided any mention of him. Though perhaps it helped that it was summer and she could physically avoid him. Avoid his music with the simple click to turn it off. Any time Phoebe mentioned anything, Amie simply changed the conversation or avoided talking about it by leaving the room. Apparently… that wasn’t going to last because being in the same room simply was a breeding ground for running into one another sooner or later… and as much as she hoped it was later, apparently, it turned out to be now. Great… just…great.
“Al…Alex I… ignoring? I don’t… I wouldn’t say… ‘Ignoring’ per say. It was more… I was just pre…occupied like… right now I have a class to get to because…Miss Esposito needs me to turn… in my assignment yeah… I should…go do… that,” Amie started. Remember what she thought about social situations… this was the definition of something she wanted to avoid as long as possible and if she could continue to do so, she would.
