(An arrow points to the page before, obviously from the same day.)
So, Bri decided to round up Jinx, Rika, Gert and I to take to a casino.
Rika's as blank as a wall. Its almost a bit scary, though I can't help but feeling a bit angry.
After a while Bri left. Turns out Rika is a casino regular, and Gert has amazing luck. Both of them got a lot.
Jinx and I resorted to cursing at Russell's face. Meh, we both still won and the wuss had to step aside.
Then...there was this other Jinx. She was all smug and bitchy, and basically mocked everyone.
So I sort of beat her with Rika's huge bag of coins, then slapped her, then broke her nose.
Yeah, we're all banned. ...It was totally worth it. (One of the rare moments I punch someone in the face. God damn, I am on edge.)
Anyways, we all went back to school and talked for a while. ...Well, Gert, Cielle and I did. Rika walked off and Jinx went to talk to Raz.
Thank god, Gert and Cielle don't get sad too often. Gert figures Gio left without notice 'cos he was visiting his family and doesn't want anyone to know he's a momma's boy.
...Yes, I did sort of suggest it to reassure Jinx he didn't walk off to 'X'. I mean...Gio did betray us.
But...it's Gio. Knowing him, I feel like it must have been an accident. He has worse luck than I do.
Cielle explained to us that he's off trying to fix his curse.
Bri appeared.
I let her cry on my shoulder. It was sopping wet, so I had to squeeze out excess water. I don't really care, I'm more worried about her eyeballs drying out or her slashing her arms.
After a while she left, too.
...Then Al appeared.
Cue happy Lily. heart
So finally, we got our date. We left Gert and Cielle, and went to the Sweets Shop to get hot chocolate.
(It's still deserted.Looks like his precious audience won't be coming out soon.)
It was...so much fun. I could write about it in detail, but with all of the side comments I do, I'd probably fill up this whole book. But I shall spare my hand from cramps and instead squeal and sigh like a schoolgirl.
(I do admit I got him to spit out his drink by remarking ever-so-innocently 'I bet I'm experienced at lots of other things, too!' His face was hilarious.)
...The flyer came out again. I asked Al if I would make a good animal tamer. (I asked Gert and Cielle if I would be a good trapeze artist. Gert suggested animal tamer. ...I'm slightly scared.)
I ended up explaining to him. ...I...I needed to tell someone. There is a reason I'm so scared of letting them into my dreams. Because they'll find out, too.
He told me that I should go where I wanted to, and that my friends should support every step.
(Al ended up carrying me to bed. I'd prefer sleeping outside, but since he tucked me in and I got a kiss, all is well.)
...I need to protect them all, though. I don't want them to hold their feelings back, I want them to cry their hearts out. And when it's all done, when this s**t is all over with, I want them to smile again.
I think that's what I'll wish for this coming new year.
For karma to give us all a break.
