Nick gets into his car whil I'm stood here in complete shock. 'we'll never know'. Now I know we joke about stuff like 'being a couple' or anything related to it because ever since high school all of our friends and friends of friends always made jokes or comments on our friendship. It's mainly aimed at Nick, I don't know how he puts up with them, especially after I forced him to tell me what people were actually saying.
The worst ones were 'fuck buddies' and 'friends with benefits'. So when I stayed over, we didn't tell anyone. It's looked upon that girls cannot be best friends with boys - it will always end up in a relationship or worse, ruining the friendship.
I only see Nick as a brother, really. I love him so much, he is my soul mate, in a friend sense. That's why I got angry when that Jackass made such a stupid remark. Nick is fastening his seat belt as I climb into the car.
"Do you want to go KFC then to the cinema? My treat." My belly rumbles thinking about KFC, I forgot how hungry I was before.
"I can pay for myself, thank you very much, but yeah, let's go so I can cheer up."
He shoves his hair back out of his face with the bobble that I randomly ave him a few years ago, he liked the way it looked in my hair so I handed it over. He never takes it off his wrist.
"how about you pay for the food and I pay for the tickets?" He's sitting side on with one leg proped up.
Now that his hair is out of his face, I can fully appreciate his good looks. He has a few small freckles under his eyes which go over his nose, he's more tanned than usual because he has just come back from Australia. Nick's family is quite rich, so they can take holidays very often. Why doesn't he have a girlfriend?
"Well? Are you going to keep staring at me all night or are we doing this?" He pokes my cheek and I try to bite his finger but he quickly pulls away.
"Fine, it best be a funny film though, I want to laugh." I fold my arms like a kid. He finally sits forward turning the engine on.
"Anything for the miss." and chuckles.
We pull up outside my house around 6PM, I didn't think I'd be out so late. I say goodbye to Nick and promise to text him later on.
I quickly say hi to my mum and dad and then start to run a hot bubble bath, I need it to be hot and my skin to be red like a lobster or i'm not satisfied. Mos it's weird people think it's weird, but I don't care that much. I plug my iphone into the docking station and play some music which Beau wouldn't mind,this is one of the things we agree on, so I put our play list on called "crazy, stupid mix". It had a variety of artists on such as Backstreet boys, N-Sync, Take that and westlife, once it starts playing we have a good half hour of hair brush singing and dancing. God, I must have needed that, I feel so much better.
I slip into my bath and I'm greeted by the hot water, it stings my skin and goosebumps appear all over my body,Just how I like it. I lie back and let my mind wander about today's fanatics and all I can think about is those blue and Hazel eyes staring at me, I feel so vulnerable as if he can actually see me in the bath. My phone starts to ring so I shout Beau to run in with it on loud speak.
"Hello?" I start to dry my hands on a towel so I can retrieve my phone.
"Hey! How are you?" a chirpy voice bellowed from the speaker. I dry my hands quicker.
"Hey Cassie, You're on speaker phone, I'm in the bath, hold on a sec" I can hear cars passing by in the background, she must be outside.
"Don't worry it's a quick call, I wanted to see if you fancied going out for a drink and dance?" I could really do with a night out and let my hair down I suppose.
"Tonight? Yeah sure, What time and where?" I'm excited! I want to get my groove on.
"7;30 okay?" What time is it? It say's 6;45PM on my phone, which gives me 45 minutes to get my ass in gear.
"yeah, alright! Where?" I look for my razor, my legs are in definite need of shaving.
"I'll come pick you up, we'll go to that club we always go to in town. I'll pick my car up tomorrow." I can hear her smile down the phone. By that comment I assume that she intends to take a guy home. I wish I was as care free as Cassie, I'm not into the whole 'wham, bam, thank you ma'am'
"Fine, i'll go. You're such a slut!" By now i've shaved my legs and exfoliated my skin like a cheese grater; I feel fresh.
"Hahaha! You and you're forward personality makes me laugh, you better watch out or one day you'll catch a guy with it, trust me, Wood." yeah right, who want a foulmouthed, forward girl like me? I remember those eyes again, I smack the thought away.
"I'm not going over this again, Marcs. See you soon." I hang up before she can retaliate.
