i've been waiting for a chance to let you in

[_dawn_]

Okay, so um, wow. JT asked me to the Prom today!

We were having lunch with Nick and Tres and Nick's friend Marcus, and then the warning bell rang. We all took off; Tres towards the Science wing, Nick and Marcus to Studyhall and me and JT to English. I stopped to get a drink at the water fountain before we went in, and he just asked me. With

*sitting up in her room. Books out, but not studying*

So..spill? Whats been going on with you? I feel like I haven't talked to you in like forever.

[_dawn_]

Yeah, we've kind of seen each other in passing, haven't we?

*idly begins doodling on her spiral notebook*

*laughs*

Okay you're stalling. Now I KNOW you have something to spill! Come on out with it!

*smiles, doodling stars and little hearts*

The Bronze was fun Friday night, wasn't it?

[_dawn_]

*looks uncomfortable*

Um, I kinda don't want to dwell on this because of everything that happened, but um...

When a guy tells you the only reason he was with you was because he thought you'd have sex with him, that you weren't cool enough to hang around with otherwise-.

*shrugs again*

Hard to just forget it like it never happened. That's all I'm saying.

*sighs*

It's okay. You can talk about it with me. And you know what? Josh was a psychopath nut job. So just by definition, him saying that? is null and void. Really Dawn, don't give him another thought. He isn't worthy of you dwelling over the shit he said. Don't give him that power to hurt you anymore.

Yeah, I know, some things you just can't wipe from your memory. But really in his case, try.

[_dawn_]

I know you're right. And I know JT isn't like that. I haven't known him that long, but I just know.

Does that make any sense?

[theresa_trejo]

*smiles*

Yeah it does. There are some people out there that you just know are one of the good guys. I think JT is one of them.
