Perfect Day

“Jane!” I exclaim, running up to my best friend at her locker.

“Kayla!” She says, closing her locker and turning to face me. “Yes?”

“Nothin’” I shrug and we laugh.

“Oh guess what!” She says, linking her arm through mine as we start off for our third hour.

“Hmm?” I ask.

“I dumped Dan today.” She tells me, nonchalontly.

I laugh, “Good for you.”

“Fo sho.” She nods.

“Hey Sweetie.” A voice says as I feel an arm wrap around my shoulder. “Hey Jane.”

“Hey Jude.” Jane says smiling at him politely and nudging me with her arm.

“Hey Baby.” I smile, turning towards him and kissing him lightly on his lips. I turn back and glare at Jane, causing us both to laugh.

The three of us walk down the hall towards our classes, Jane and my arms linked and Jude’s arm around my shoulder. Kids gawk at us but we pay them no mind, the three of us perfectly content with our friendship.

We get to Jane and my class and I kiss Jude goodbye.

“See you after class.” He says and walks off to his class.
