Jade pov:

"I'm sexy, I'm cute, I'm popular to boot I'm bitchin' , great hair, the boys all love to stare!" I sang along to the intro of Bring it on.

I love chick flicks. I will never understand why they stopped making movies like mean girls, 10 things I hate about you, she's the man, dirty dancing, you get the point I could go on and on.

It's two in the afternoon I'm home alone dancing and singing in the living room in a unicorn onesie.

My parents went on a couples retreat. They have such a complicated on and off relationship. It's so clear that they want to be together but they're too stubborn and prideful to put in the effort and let the past go to make things work but who knows maybe this time will be different.

My best friend Olivia is supposed to be coming over to keep me company while my parents are gone. I live in a huge house because despite my parents being on and off they couldn't stand living without each other.

I love being by myself. Honestly I don't even know why. I would think after being an only child and anti-social I would hate being alone but for some reason I don't mind it.

Maybe because I'm an aquarius and after being alone for a large portion of my life I've learned how to entertain myself.

"We're so terrific, we must be Toros!" I sing loudly into my remote as the song ends. I plop down on the couch and cover myself in my grey sherpa blanket.

I can't wait to see liv It feels like ages since we last saw each other. Finals were last week so we rarely got to hang out due to all the immense amount of studying and test taking.

When the movie was over I decided to get up and make lunch. I know some people eat lunch at like 12pm and 1pm but I'm a late kind of gal. Most days I skip breakfast, lunch is a maybe, and I always eat dinner. Plus I eat a bunch of snacks of course.

Looking in the fridge I decide on a grilled chicken salad. I'd honestly rather get chipotle or chick-fil-a but I have got to incorporate better food choices into my diet.

As I'm washing my chicken and salad I hear a knock at the door. Thinking it's Liv I skip to the door and open it without even asking who it is.

After I get a quick good look at the 6ft something tall, handsome brunette boy on my doorstep I slam the door in his face.

"What the fuck am I doing, what the fuck am I doing" I silently curse to myself. I'm black for fucks sake we don't just open the door for people without asking who it is.

On top of that I'm wearing a fucking unicorn pajama onesie. Taking a quick look out the window I see the handsome guy still standing rocking back and forth holding some kind of dish.

Deciding talking through the door was best. "Hi" I yell loudly so he can hear me. "Uh hello" he replies. "My name's Ashton, I just moved in next door. My mom has me running around sending the neighbors fruit bowls would you like this one?" He questions with a sense of humor in his voice. "Uh sure, just leave it on the doorstop." I reply. "Will do it was nice to meet you I guess."

"You too see you around." I reply shyly even though he can't see me. As he places the dish down on the porch and walks back to his house. I wait until he's no longer in sight to quickly run out and pick up the dish.

Honestly I wouldn't have taken it because I don't really trust things that come out of people's houses you know but then I remember I literally eat McDonald's and take birth control.

Also I wouldn't want to be rude. Going back into the kitchen I finish cleaning my chicken and salad. After cleaning I dry my chicken and salad. Then begin seasoning and cooking chicken. Once it's done I toss it in a bowl with the salad, croutons, and drizzle lemon juice on top. I ran out of dressing sadly.

Going back into my living room to watch another chick flick while I eat. I decide to watch cruel intentions and make a mental note to prepare a welcome basket for Ashton and his family.

About halfway into the movie I hear the doorbell ring. Setting my empty bowl onto the kitchen counter I ask who is it suspecting that it's liv. She confirms it's her and I open the door and let her in. As soon as she's in we hug each other.

We're so dramatic but we couldn't help it. She was the meredith to my christina, the max to my eleven, the ruby to my jamal, the fiona to my veronica, the bonnie to my damon, you get the point.

I wasn't one of those girls who had like a childhood best friend or met lots of girls in school. I didn't meet Liv until last year when our calculus teacher paired us together for an assignment. We just instantly clicked and the rest is history.

It was around 7pm and me and liv were playing dress up in hot clothes that we buy but never wear because we never go out. After dressing up we decided to rewatch the vampire diaries.

"Hey liv" I say. "Yeah?" she replies "would you peg a guy?" I ask. "Jade what? How do these things even come to your mind? But I mean no but like yes but I mean no I couldn't however I would like to look fuck I don't know ok!" she exclaims as I burst out laughing it's so funny catching her off guard with awkward questions.

"Hey Jade?" She asks "yeah what's up?" I replied "Would you let a guy eat your ass?" She questions. "You know I'd be down." I shamelessly replied. Liv looks at me shocked and begins laughing loudly.

"What?" I question. "You only live once. I don't want to limit myself when it comes to my sexual pleasure if there's more I can do to enhance me and my partners sex life and try new things why not?"

"I feel you sis" Olivia says nodding her head in agreement. After about  two more episodes of the vampire diaries I start feeling hungry. "Hey liv do you want to go make nachos?" "Oh my god, yes I'm starving" Liv says jumping up and skipping to the kitchen.

About 10 minutes later me and Liv were seasoning our ground beef singing "why'd you only call me when you're high" by Arctic Monkeys. Music is necessary for all occasions cooking, showering, school work you name it. Never fails to make the moment better.

Once we were done making nachos we ate and rewatched the divergent series. I still can't believe they didn't complete the series. But oh well the truth is I'm only watching for Theo James and because I love a good dystopia.

While watching the movie my thoughts drift back to the hot guy I saw this morning. I hate when I randomly remember embarrassing moments it makes me cringe so bad.

Desperately trying to forget my embarrassing encounter from this morning I turn up the television. It's going to be a long night but those are the best anyways.
