I open my door to take a shower in the morning. Immediately I am greeted by Felicia. "Let's Chat," she says loudly. I'm still half asleep so it causes me to groan and flinch a bit.
"Felicia I really don't-
"No, no, we have to finish our discussion from yesterday," she says getting up off the couch and pulling my arms to sit with her.
"Can't we do this later?"
"No because later was hours ago and now we are late to the later," she explains. It's way too early for her speaking in riddles or whatever that was. I yawn and rub my eyes squinting as I am still adjusting to the bright morning light.
"What do you want then?" I really don't want to lead this discussion so I'm letting her take the reigns.
"You are the one calling me a slut," Felicia says. I roll my eyes. "You did."
"I didn't. I said every time I bring a guy around you end up fucking him," I explain.
"Well I don't know how to fix that," she laughs a little. "I'm hot," she says with a bright smile. I roll my eyes once again.
"I'm well aware that you are attractive, thank you for the reminder."
"Oh come on Stella I can't help that every guy wants sex and knows he'll get with me instead of you."
"So you are a slut?"
"I'm comfortable in my sexuality and don't see casual sex as a problem. I'm young, I'm hot, and if a guy wants to fuck me and I wanna fuck him, I'm going to," Felicia explains. I sigh knowing she's right. I can't slut shame someone who has no shame about what they do. Also I should slut shame her in general, she's doing what I would've done in high school, if it weren't for other things on my mind.
"I see what you are saying," I reply after some silence. "I'm sorry, I just-"
"You Just don't want me to fuck Peter," Felicia says cutting me off. I sigh not wanting to look at her. "Look I don't know why you won't just deal with your feelings for this guy. I don't know the history, but I'm also not stupid. I see the way you look at him, and how you stopped that bottle that night everyone came over for games. You knew it would land on Peter and you didn't want to watch him kiss anyone else," She explains.
"I've told you before I don't like him."
"Stel, come on, I know that's a lie. Why are you pushing this away?"
"Because I don't know how to deal with it!" I shout getting frustrated at her. "He is the only guy who has ever made me feel anything. Yeah you don't know our history, but there is a lot you don't know about me. I just don't know how to deal with what he brings to my life. Every time I'm around him something inside me wants to just say 'fuck it' and kiss him, but he's on a different level and I know it wouldn't work out. I need someone who won't treat as good, but he is the only guy I've thought of for years. That's why I let you fuck every guy I like. Because I know in the end Peter is always gonna be the one I want." I run my fingers through my hair and sigh looking over at Felicia. She's not really giving me much. She raises her eyebrows and lets out a louder sigh than mine.
"Well," she pauses. "That's a lot." She kind of laughs shaking her head.
"That's it?" I ask.
"Well what am I supposed to do with that? Fine I won't try and fuck Peter anymore, but you need to tell him how you feel," she says. I shake my head.
"I already know he's not into me like that. I don't wanna ruin our friendship."
"You miss 100% of the shots you don't take," she says shrugging her shoulders and getting out her phone.
"What are you doing?" I ask. She taps on her screen and puts the phone out in front of her as it begins to ring.
"I'm calling him," she says simply.
"What?!" I exclaim. I go to grab the phone but she quickly gets up and runs with it as I chase her around. Like a cat and mouse, but this time I'm the cat.
"Hello?" I hear Peter question.
"Hey Peter," Felicia says pushing me away from her as I slam on the floor.
"Ouch!" I scream.
"Uhhh, is everything okay?" Peter asks on the other end.
"Oh yeah, Stella just fell," Felicia says casually. I roll my eyes as I lay on the floor. I'm so scared to get up that I need to just lay here.
"Oh, did you need something?" Peter asks.
"Oh yeah actually I was wondering if you had plans tonight?" Felicia asks. I glare up at her.
"Not at the Moment. I get busy though I'm often on call for my job," Peter explains swallowing hard when he mentions his 'job'.
"Oh well, we are hanging with some friends and Stella and I wanted to know if you wanted to go out with us? Like as a group to that bar downtown?"
"I'm 19," Peter says sounding confused.
"Funny so are we!" Felicia says with a laugh. "So you in?"
"Won't we get in trouble?" Peter asks.
"Oh I see," Felicia looks down at me as I'm still laying on the floor. "A goody two shoes, no silly. This is a college area they don't care."
"Ummm, I don't know I have a lot of homework and-
"Peter please it would mean so much to Stella if you came," Felicia says sweetly. She bats her eyes at me as I roll them knowing that isn't gonna change his mind.
"I don't feel totally comfortable with going-
"Fine Just a frat party then? Sigma Kappa is having one tonight."
"I don't want you to change plans cause of-
"Come on Peter please? If not for Stella will you come to have one dance with me?" Felicia asks sounding sweet again. I roll my eyes once again.
"You both want me to come out with you that bad?" He asks. She giggles and tosses her hair a bit.
"Yes I would've never called you if I didn't want to be around you. Also Stella was so nervous to say anything. She doesn't think you'd have any fun," Felicia lies. I shake my head.
"That is not true," I say loudly.
"Fine, I'll go. For a little bit," Peter says hesitantly. Felicia smiles brightly.
"Great you can meet us there at 8," she quickly hangs up and smiles at me. "See."
"I don't, why don't you explain?" I ask.
"He'll be at the party and you can get all drunk and lovey on each other and then confess your feelings," Felicia says.
"Isn't that party a costume party you didn't want to go to?" I ask her. She rolls her eyes.
"Ugh, I forgot to tell him that! Can you text him?"
"Why me? You invited him!"
"Stella!" Felicia whines. I roll my eyes.
"I need to shower I'm already behind I'll do it later," I say getting up and grabbing my stuff to go to shower and get ready for class.
