Like Line

The Like Line goes as follows:

Aaron likes Lara, Lara likes George, I'm dating George, but I still like Salad, Salad likes Chrissy, Chrissy likes some other guy.

Or at least, that's the like line I'm getting. Actually that's probably only a tiny, itty bitty piece of the like line.

Well, I didn't think much of it before and I figured I could get over Salad, and it helped that he wasn't there today and I'm sure Salad is getting over Chrissy (it's been like 2 months!) but I didn't think Lara would make this harder.

Lara had been a friend of mine in elementary school but we weren't able to talk to each other for years, until this year when we were placed in the same chemistry class. All year she had been showing signs of interest towards George but I didn't think anything of it...probably because I was more interested in Salad and his life. Of course now that George and I are a couple...yeah...I guess I should have been more alert in the past.

Chloe told me right before our history class that she had to remind George that he had somebody waiting for him back at home (I really wasn't...but whatever). I didn't think much of it until the middle of the class when I'm like, "Wait...what?" thankfully, during study hall she gave me the whole story.

Over the long weekend Chloe, Lara, George and some of their friends went on an overnight hiking trip (it was a 4 day long trip I think 2/14/08-2/18/08? I'm not sure exactly) and apparently Lara spent as much time as she possibly could, flirting with George. Chloe told me that she had to keep reminding Lara that George and I were going out. And even so, Lara really didn't believe her.

So of course Lara told Rose (who sits with us at lunch) that I was dating George. So when George and I had sat down to eat lunch, Rose leans in and whispers to me: "Is it true that you and George are...well...a couple?" I looked over at him and then back at Rose, I have a feeling I was blushing bright red and I ask her, "Why?" I don't know why I asked, I mean I knew the whole story but I wanted to see Rose's answer. It was a really dumb answer "I just heard...stuff." so I answered with an equally dumb...but still truthful answer. "Maybe...I'm not sure...probably...I guess...yeah."

Of course George proved to me later on in lunch and at the end of the day that we were a couple. We did footsies under the lunch table and he walked with me to my locker and out the school.

So maybe Tawnee is right, he likes me better than Lane and I am prettier than her. Apparently I have better fashion than her and well...all around prettier.

The only problem? (Aside from the fact that I still like Salad) George has told me absolutely nothing about the trip, Chloe told me everything. Although, that could also just mean that he didn't know what was going on but who knows?

Obviously I don't because I wasn't on that trip.
