To the One I Loved

Chapter Eleven: Three's a Crowd

Nina's POV:
Last weekend at Beth's house was amazing. We had such a great time. We watched movies and there was lots of food, and we did makeover, and talked about Alex...a lot.

She actually is one of the bestest friends I've had since 3rd grade. Alex and I were planning to hang out tonight.

Now, Beth and I were walking to Science class, when an arm wrapped around my shoulders. "I'm starting to think that you're trying to steal my girlfriend." Alex said to Beth.

She laughed, "No, this one's only got eyes for you," she said. Then he laughed too.

"Well, I don't know," I said joining in on the fun, "Beth is pretty hot." Then I laughed with them.

"So, if I wanted you as my date to this party tonight, then Beth would have to come too?" He asked. I knew that meant that he was inviting me, but Beth could tag along if she wanted. The three of us were pretty close now, we were like the three musketeers.

I nodded, "Beth?" I said looking at her, "are you in?" I asked. She nodded.

"Totally," she said right as we were entering the science room.

"Okay," Alex said, taking his seat. "I'll pick you both up at 8." I nodded.

Alex's POV:

It was 7:30. Friday, September 8th. I got into my party clothes. I wore black jeans, a white T-shirt, and a black jean jacket on top.

I sprayed some of the cologne that Nina once complemented on. She said that I spelled like a Vanilla Spice...whatever that means. I slipped my phone into my coat pocket and and then grabbed my car keys.

I headed out the door, "I'll be home by midnight," I yelled out to my mom.

"Be safe," she yelled back. I went through the door and over to Nina's porch. I rang the doorbell. Paul answered.

"Hey," I said.

"Hey," he responded, "they're both here." Good. I thought. I didn't have to drive extra to pic up Beth. "Nina. Beth. He's here." Paul called out. Beth was the first running down the stairs. She looked nice.

She was wearing a plain, black shirt and a patterned skirt with different colors. She was wearing her natural hair, and gold heels.

Then Nina came down. I couldn't help but smile she was so gorgeous. Drop-dead gorgeous. She had on a plain black dress, with a diamond cut in the middle showing parts of her stomach. She had straightened her long brownish-blonde hair, and had on a black pair of heels.

"Wow," I said. Looking at her. Obviously Paul didn't like this and I think Beth could tell.

"Don't amuse yourself," she said, saving me and taking Nina's arm. "She's a one-woman kind of woman."

I couldn't help but laugh. And when I started so did they. "Well," Beth said, finally ending our laughing, "I think these are the picture-worthy moments." She handed Paul her phone. "Do you mind?" She asked. He shook his head and took the phone from her.

We took lots of photos. We took one of Beth pointing to my cheek, because she had licked her finger and dared to touch me with her germs, and Nina was laughing at us. (Picture in margin) we took some of just me and Nina and some of just Beth and Nina, and then we took one last group one, both Nina and Beth were kissing me on each cheek.

That started all the fun of that night.
