In her quest to find out if her BFF James likes her, Lyra blurts out a big lie... —Sparkitors
Today commenced without many problems. Brush teeth. Brush hair. Get dressed. Everything was fine in the morning. I worked on a robot, took some Spanish notes, ate a bagel, hung out with my friends. Just when I thought things couldn't be more ordinary, I got a face full rainbow-unicorn-lovey-dovey-hearts-and-sunshine-live-forever-in-the-minds-of-cute-bears-and-kittens James. I mean seriously this is the epitome of James.
I have been telling myself that it’s time to take some action in this whole fiasco of my love so I thought that instead of greeting him with my usual fake smile and hug, I would give him… nothing. In fact, had such a hard time thinking of something to say without being mean that I actually ignored him and walked away!
Of course that didn’t go over well with Mr. Golden Sunshine and he chased after me with the kind of face that looks like you just yelled at a poor defenseless little animal with huge beautiful eyes and a breathtaking smile and a luscious… I’m getting way off track. Anyway, with all his gorgeousness aside, he was concerned for me! This was good for my emotions but really, really bad for my improv acting.
“Lyra-loo, what’s wrong??? Is bio going well? Is it those horrible guys from Spanish annoying you again? Tell me! I’m here to help you in all of your hurt and sorrow. I am your mystical guide through the world of pain. I am here to help you escape the clutches of gloomy doom!”
Yep. He actually said those things. No, I do not know how someone could think of such things on such short notice, but I really can’t understand much of James anyhow.
So I had to lie. Yeah, not such a big deal. Well, that’s what I thought until I had to say the stupidest thing possible:
“Well, um….um, I well. I met a guy over the weekend…?”
Of all of the microscopic office workers who organize the files of my brain, which idiot worker decided to relay to my vocal chords the notion of BEING IN A RELATIONSHIP???
James WENT TO TOWN on my “news.”
“OH MY GOD! OMG! OMG! Who is he? Does he go to school here? IS HE CUTE!!??”
Etc. Etc.
Great. My life has become fake epic.
Just as a quick shout out: WeDidntStartTheFire, I would LOVE to join your secret non-religious nun cult. It is what I’ve been waiting for my ENTIRE LIFE.
Do you think Lyra should confess her lie, or keep playing it, Easy A style?
