Maxine

I watch as Daniella and Hazel kiss each other once the clock struck midnight. I feel a pang of hurt inside my chest. It's not because of the fact that they are together. No, they are a gorgeous couple, perfect for each other. But I feel hurt because I can't have what they have.

When I met Daniella, I felt an instant pull towards her. I felt my heart stop momentarily, then begin soaring in my chest. I felt the same thing when I met Hazel, the same attraction and pull. I felt the same electricity shoot up my arm when I shook her hand. I felt the same tingly feeling spread throughout my body.

   It was wonderful. It was addicting. I want to feel that way all the time, but I can't. I want to feel that buzz in my head and electricity throughout my body again, but I can't.

I honestly feel guilty about thinking of a happy couple I had just met this way, but I can't help it. They made me feel so many incredible things even though I was extremely nervous. They made me feel comfortable. I enjoyed talking to them almost too much and I'm now stuck feeling extremely disappointed that I was so abruptly pulled away from it all.

"H-Hey Max," Eli slurs through his speech, "wanna to be my new year's kiss tonight?" My best friend runs a hand through his fiery red hair and stumbles slightly.

"Not even a little bit." I sigh. I'm too preoccupied with being upset over the fact I'll probably never see Dani and Hazel again to deal with Eli. Besides, Eli is way more of brother to me rather than a romantic partner, no matter how often he tries hitting on me.

"Dude, d-did you not see that she's trying to get sandwiched b-between Miss Xavier and her girlfriend?" Gordon , my other best friend slurs while basically throwing himself on Eli in an attempt to stop himself from falling over. I immediately feel my face heat up.

"No I don't! Would you shut up?!" I lie right through my teeth.

"Oh yeah, you totally do, look at how red your face is." Gordon points a finger at me and laughs.

   "Sandwiched? More like obliterated." Eli cackles.

I slap Gordon's hand away with a huff. Eli throws an arm over Gordon's shoulder and they laugh a drunken laugh together until they have tears in their eyes.

"You two have had way too much to drink." I mutter in annoyance. I turn to scan the crowd in front of me, trying to find a certain tall, brunette fashion icon and a short, curly haired lawyer, but there is just too many people around us.

I sigh deeply through my nose, disappointment taking course throughout my whole being.

What if I never see them again?

I shake my head, reminding myself that Hazel and Daniella are a happy couple. I shouldn't care if I see them again or not. However, I still can't shake the feeling of longing for the both of them.

Get over yourself Max...

I sigh as I pull out my phone and call a cab. I don't want to be around two gorgeous people I can't have longer than I have to.

"Hey Maxi Pooh! Are you- planning on- going home already?" Gordon hiccups through his words. At this point, Gordon and Eli are struggling to hold each other up.
