As the doctor told us everything, I finally settled down. They were ok but they just don't remember anything from the crash. As I saw them Nelissa she had her left arm broken she was the driver, Lexi had broke her right leg. They were covered in bruises and I just couldn't look at them without wanting to cry.
"Jay don't do that come on we don't look that bad. I'm ugly but damn not that ugly." Of course it would be Lexi that would say something like that.
"It's just ugh, I can't believe you guys don't remember anything you know? Like damn, y'all have no idea how you crashed."
"Nope, it's crazy though, but hey I thank God that it wasn't that bad you know?" Nelissa said this time, I nodded in agreement.
"My mom is glad you guys are ok." I told them texting her back.
We just stayed talking till the nurse came in saying that I had to leave.
As I drove back home in silence, I drove past the street where the accident happened. I'm wondering how did Damien or whoever drove him back home did not even see it. There is no way that they couldn't have seen it.
Walking into the house I heard voices. Going up the steps Damien and all his friends were in the living room playing video games. At least the whole football team was here. Even Ruben Gomez, I had this huge crush on him.
His light brown round eyes, his black silky hair, those very full pink lips, very built. As soon as his eyes met mine they didn't leave for a while, till I broke it by walking to the kitchen. I placed my bag on the counter as I went to grab a water from the fridge.
"Hey Jay." Ruben said as he walked into the kitchen leaning against the counter.
"What's up?"
"Where you coming from? A date looking that gorgeous." I couldn't help but laugh, but I tried not to blush which I'm pretty sure that's what I was doing.
"Yeah right. No I came back from visiting Lex and Nelissa."
"Oh, yeah. I heard they were in a car accident yesterday. How are they doing?"
"Good, nothing to life threathening. But I'm surprised Damien or whoever drove him back home didn't see anything or saying anything."
"That's good. What do you mean? Damien drove himself back home."
"He drove home drunk. He said someone brought him home."
"He wasn't drunk last night. We were at my house, I'm not allowed to have alcohol at my house. So we weren't even drinking." I looked at Ruben so confused.
"HEY!' Damien yelled as he entered the kithcen patting Ruben on the back.
"What are we talking about here?" Damien asked.
"Nothing." I said, just talking.
We stood there for a while Ruben and Damien played wrestle or whatever. Damien just kept staring at me.
Me and Ruben talked as much as we could without Damien interuping. I was hoping he would ask me out or something but damn Damien.
So I decided to call it a night while Damien and his friends were still in the living room. I changed from my jeans to my black basketball shorts. I opened my door and got scared as I saw Ruben on the other side getting ready to knock on my door.
"Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to scare you." He said.
"But um, I came up here cause I didn't get a chance to ask you cause of Damien." I just looked at him, nodding at him to keep going. He looked so cute, he was nervous. His hand would reach up and rubbing the back of his neck.
"Would you like to going bowling on Saturday? W-with me?"
"Yeah. I would like that."
"For real?" He said with a huge smile on his face.
"Yeah for real."
"I'll pick you up at 6:30."
"Cool."
"Bro! This is where you escaped. Are you gonna use me for my sister now?" Damien said as he was at the end of the hall.
"Nah, just had to ask Jay a question."
"Oh, what kind of question?"
"A homework question damn." I answered for him now.
"Well alright. But nah it's your turn bro. Let's go."
Ruben then followed him down the stairs.
"Homework my ass." I heard Damien say, I guess he was talking to Ruben.
But I was still in shock I couldn't even stop smiling, I was too excited.
About two hours later I heard a knock on my door, I'm thinking it is Ruben again till I open the door and it was Damien. I sighed.
"Oh, it's like that?"
"What is it?"
"Nothing just what did Ruben ask you for real?"
"Why do you care?"
"He is my best friend, more like my brother."
"It really doesn't concern you, cause if he wanted you to know he would have told you already right?" Damien made a face and walked away.
"Hey so you weren't drunk last night huh? Ruben said you drove yourself last night and that you were pretty sober."
"You saw me last night. And as far as Ruben knows he thinks I came home right after. I could of went to a party after leaving his house."
"Did you?"
"Now that doesn't concern you." He said walking into his room with that damn smile.
