《Cherry Scent》XXXVIII. Empty Promises
Advertisement
" No amount of empty promises are going to make me forgive you, that's all I'm going to say.
"Wake up, I'm bored."
A soft voice called out, I groaned and put my head under my pillow as the sun light beamed straight into my eyes.
I heard a chuckle and soon the pillow was removed and so was the blankets, I shriveled up into a ball and shivered as the cold air from my AC was hitting my bare skin.
"Scar, wake up."
I finally opened my eyes and looked at who was disturbing my sleep, I needed it anyways but it's whatever.
I smiled as the person who woke me up was Jaden, he smiled at me.
The smile faded away as I gave him a death stare and gave him my middle finger before going back to bed, no amount of cute guys I'd going to make me want to wake up.
Jaden groaned and threw the blanket back on me, I smiled in victory as I went back to sleep.
Soon I felt two warm arms snake their way to my waist, I smiled wider.
But right after he did that, I was no longer exhausted.
I laughed as I sat up and walked to my bathroom, brushing my teeth and doing a skincare.
"You're bed is so comfy, I'm going to sleep."
Jaden said with a smile as he closed his eyes and tried sleeping, I rolled my eyes and grabbed my blankets and pillows.
Repeating the actions he had done to me with a smirk of evil.
"You are evil, did you know that?"
Jaden muttered as he got out of bed and helped me make my bed, I kissed his cheek and went looking through my closet.
I couldn't make a decision so I had Jaden choose an outfit, he has me close my eyes though.

"Thanks but privacy."
I kissed his forehead to which he returned the kiss on my cheek, we weren't going to have a full kiss yet.
Although I wanted a full kiss, I didn't want to pressure him and I wanted him to make the move.
I actually loved the outfit he picked out for me, it was gorgeous and different from what I normally wear which is usually skirts.
After I got dressed, I decided to do two French braids.
I grabbed my phone off the charger and unlocked my door, I walked downstairs and greeted both Alana and my dad before walking over to Jaden.
He was on discord talking to fans, I kissed his cheek and walked to the kitchen.
I was hungry but not hungry enough, does that ever happen to you? I bet it does.
I grabbed applesauce and walked over to the dining table, as I ate my applesauce I was on Instagram.
Soon after I was looking at Madelyn Cline's Instagram, I got a call from 'Brace Face 👀'
"What's up brace face?"
I greeted Javon, he flipped me off and scoffed playfully.
Ever since we became best friends, I had to step up my teasing.
"These braces are coming out soon!"
Javon defended himself to which I shook my head and looked at him.
"Said the same thing about your height and hair, you're still bald and you use a step stool to reach the cabinets."
I joked as I threw out the empty cup and put my spoon in the sink, he looked at me and tried to fight his laughter.
With one moment of silence, we both bursted in laughter.
"Okay, okay! Anyways, you gotta see what Layla posted."
Javon said as he sighed trying to stop laughing, we had watery eyes from the laughter.

I sighed in annoyance at the name but I went back onto the app and checked her profile.
I unblocked her for the moment and checked her latest post, she looked so pathetic if I was being honest.

I laughed to myself and turned my phone off, Jaden went home because I was going to sleep over there.
I was sleeping over for Jayla but I couldn't crush his happiness, I went upstairs and packed a bag.
I walked to the living room and said goodbye to my father and Alana, I locked the door from outside and began to walk to the Waltons.
As I did, I heard my name being called by an all too familiar voice.
"Oh, it's you."
I said in a disappointed tone although I knew it was her, I knew she was angry with what I commented but she deserved all of it.
Layla walked towards me with a sad look on her face, was it just me or does anyone want me to do round two with her?
"Look, what I post is immature and petty. I miss my best friend alright?"
Layla said as she looked at me, I looked back at her with an annoyed face.
Was she really thinking this was the best way to be my friend again?
It was not.
"Is that a pathetic excuse to try to be my friend again? Try making an apology letter, make it sincere or I'm never ever looking your way again."
I stood my ground with a stern look, I wasn't about to let her walk all over me again.
She hurt me once, she wasn't allowed to do it again.
"I promise to be better, you know I keep my promises."
Layla said, she took her pinky out.
"Do I? Because you promise that my secrets were safe with you but now they're all over the Internet."
I said with anger lacing my voice, I was getting angrier by the second.
"I promise, I'll change."
Layla, you're one of the greatest liars in all of Georgia.
If you hadn't hurt me the way you did, I would have said yes and we would have been friends again.
No amount of empty promises are going to make me forgive you, that's all I'm going to say.
With those words stabbing her, I turned around and walked to the Waltons.
I felt joy, like I had just won the Superbowl without even knowing how to play football.
I want her to go through hell without me, only so she can learn that I am better without her.
It was petty but I'm very petty, that's all.
