Leo's House

I woke up this morning, and was quite tired. However, I did my last minute chores and packing. I took my bus fare, and headed out to Bambi's house. It was freezing outside. With the windchill, it was close to 0. The first bus came quickly and I warmed up listening to music. The second bus took significantly longer. It took over a half hour to come. By the time it came, I had lost feeling in my feet and parts of my face. I got into the bus and thawed out very slowly. While on the bus, I was listening to music and texting people. I looked up and noticed where I was. I was right in front of Leo's house. I had forgotten the bus goes right by his home. I looked out the window and saw his house. Part of me wanted to hit the stop button, get off, and go to his front door to talk to him. I knew he would most likely be home. Midterms are this week, and he never has to take them because he's always exempt. I knew that as I passed his house, he was probably inside having no clue I was passing right by him. I refrained from getting off and continued my journey. I took a third bus and finally arrived.
Antonio greeted me at the door and when I came inside, Bambi was playing a Yu-Gi-Oh! game with his friend Joe online. I guess he was too busy to greet me himself. I cuddled up next to him and tried to warm up. I got bored of just watching him play. He eventually signed off and said hi to me. We talked and got onto the topic of juggling. Bambi can juggle pretty well, and he practices often. I never learned how to juggle, so today Bambi taught me. I wasn't very good at all. The balls were flying around the room hitting Antonio, Bambi, the Xbox, the computer, and everything else. It took time, and a lot of patience from Antonio and Bambi, but I got it down. I was able to kinda juggle and look good doing it. After the juggling, I decided to make all of us some hot cocoa. They all enjoyed it and then we played Pokémon. Soon, Bambi and Antonio's friends Joe and Gio came over. They're nice enough guys, and I really do like them, but I feel so out of place with them. They're all discussing card and video game tactics, laughing at inside jokes, and sorta leaving me out of the loop. However, it isn't their fault. The four of them have grown up together and are very tight with each other. Bambi and I separated from the group and built our snowman. It was more of a blob than a snowman, but I loved it. We gave him little twig arms, beady red eyes, a stick mouth, and an icicle nose. We soon went inside, and everyone decided they were hungry. The five of us walked to a local deli and the guys all ordered food. While there, Bambi asked if I wanted to hang out with them or be solo. I told him I don't really feel comfortable around the whole group. He said we would hang out on our own. We headed back to Bambi's house, and the group all ate together. Bambi's parents came home, and Antonio, Gio, and Joe all left to hang out somewhere else. Bambi's mom started talking to me and I couldn't escape. I don't want to be rude and just walk away. Every time I tried to end the conversation, she would start it again. She and I talked for about an hour while Bambi sat alone in another room. Bambi's dad offered to drive me home, so we left. Bambi and I didn't really spend much alone time together today. I thought we would have a cute date just hanging out together, but of course not. I was dropped off at home and my day was over. I wish Bambi and I had more time together.
I also can't decided whether I made the right choice. Should I have gone to Leo's? Maybe it would have been easier doing it that way. But his parents may have been home. I don't know. Should I have gotten off the bus and knocked on his door? Or did I make the right choice by just passing by. As I passed, I was wondering what he was doing at that very moment. Was he cooking? Watching tv? Maybe studying? Or even out for a run? I'll never know.
