Friends Forever

"Twenty dollars" The saleslady said.

"Do you have 2 dollars there? I'm short right now." I said while Lena rolled her eyes. She handed me the money to pay. Lena and I bought flowers and chocolates for Glyde. We've been dating since the day I handed her the apple. After all I never returned in my future, it's been two weeks now and my studies is quite good since I'm really an adult that's why I have my advantages. Maybe this time leaping gave me another chance to change my life, maybe she is the one too. Well, it's good because I asked dad to stay in the house every night to avoid his death. I know and I feel that my future will be great!

"What will happen to you if I'm not beside you dumb-headed" She said, I answered it with a chuckle.

"I can live without you" I joked. Well, that's really a joke. No one can live without their best friend. Before we leave the mall she handed me an apple.

"What's this for?"

"You never forget giving Miss Reyes foods and flowers that made you forget yourself." She grabbed the things that I'm carrying and pulled me to the nearest fast food.

She ordered chicken wings, fries, burgers and pasta just for me. I didn't mind her presence and start digging in.

"How did you know that-" I asked her but she immediately cut me off.

"Because you look thinner" I ignored her answer and continue biting and digging foods.

"If you're planning to marry Miss Reyes, don't." I stopped eating when I heard what she say.

"Why?" My face frowned.

"Did you see yourself in the mirror?" She fixed the strays of my hair which covers my face.

"No.."

"Just remember that you don't have to find love 'cause love finds you. I know that there is something in your mind that's why you push yourself to her." She really knows me. I'm doing this not just for me, but for dad also. I want him to be alive in the real time.

Even though I didn't mentioned to her my problem here being stuck in my past with Glyde, she knows me well.

"You already said that to me."

"I did?"

"Thank you, but don't mind me. Let's just eat."

When we're done eating, Lena and I grab a taxi and went to Glyde's crib. Our relationship is a secret and Lena is the only one who knows what's happening between me and Glyde. I trust her and I know she's not mad at me for having a relationship with a person older than me. When we arrived to Glyde's place, Lena paid the cab. I really thank Lena for being with me, I really owe her a lot.

"We're here, let's go?" I asked her but she shook her head.

"I'll wait for you here, it's your time to talk to her alone. I don't want to be a bother" I nod and proceed to Glyde's door. After a knock I saw my beautiful girlfriend, we greet each other with a kiss.

"I didn't expect you to be here" Glyde said while we're hugging each other.

"I miss you, we know that we can't talk to each other at school, weekends are my favorite right now" I handed her the chocolates and flowers that I bought earlier, she's really happy about it.

"You never missed on giving me these stuffs, I like it. Come in here" Glyde asks me to go inside her house, as much as I want to Lena is with me. I don't want the two of them feel awkward with each other.

"Sorry babe but as much as I want t come in, I'm with Lena" I see how sad she is, I feel sorry for her but I have to leave.

"I'll come to your office tomorrow and give me detention" I winked at her and she smiled at me.

"I understand, you two be careful okay? I'll detain you tomorrow" We kissed and bid our goodbyes. Glyde really loves me, I'm confident that that lady is the ne for me! I smiled in the thought of that.

"Detention huh" I turned my head and hit Lena's arm while we walk home.

"I attend school for detentions" We chuckled while walking on a very quiet road.

"I heard a cheerleader confess to you" I asked but Lena continue to walk and didn't answer immediately.

"I rejected her" My face frowned, knowing that the cheerleader are hot, Lena is the only person I know who rejected a hot chic!"

"Why?"

"She's not the one"

"Really? How would you know that she ain't the one, you never date her"

"I just know" She walks faster and left me behind her, I also walks fast to reach her. "The person I love will be the last, and I don't see myself with her that's it" Lena is something that is loyal with her soulmate, that girl or guy will be very lucky to have her. I hold her hand that causes her to stop walking and my head bumps into her back. She didn't turn around to look at me, the inly thing I know is that her hand is really sweaty.

"Thank you for being there with me.." I said but still, she didn't turn around.

"Be my friend forever okay?" I waited for her response, she still didn't turn around but I saw her head nodded. We're still holding hand in hand and continue walking home. I don't know what to feel, I feel a bit sad and happy in the thought of being with Lena forever. All I know is with Lena in this time leaping, everything will be okay.

I hope that my decisions in life right now will result greatly in the future. I love this life today, this is the life that I want. Dad is alive, I didn't freak out Van for being gay, and having Glyde. I know I will be happy tomorrow, I can feel it.

"Why are you smiling?"

"I'm going to be happy Lena, I swear"
