Spin the Bottle

ch. 2 The Fight

Saturday came around and it was 4:00 o'clock. Gianna is hosting her party at 6:00 so i have two hours to get ready. We all decided we would meet up at Alysia's house and get ready there, and then we would get a ride together to Giannas party. So i got out of the car and waved my mom goodbye as she sped off. When i walked in Alysia's parents told me to go upstairs since that's where Alysia was. I walked in to Alysia's room and Nia and Alysia were applying mascara getting ready for the big party.
"Hey E." said Alysia
"What's up Alana?" said Nia.
I signed and said in my froggy voice,
"Nothing much. I don't have a good feeling about this party."
"Shake it off. Loosen up a bit." replied Nia.
She would never understand, since she never had to worry about liking someone who she could never have.
I hope Jon isn't at this party.

Hours pass and we arrived to Giannas. There were already so many people there and the party didn't even start. I decided to walk around and get a drink with Nia and Alysia until we saw Gianna in the kitchen.
"Hey guys! Alana, glad you could make it!" Gianna said excited.
I smiled at her and looked around at everyone. I was calm and my eyes stopped at someone. Jon. I figured he wouldn't be here since Gianna didn't like him so much. But i guess i was wrong. I guess i was staring a little too long, because Jon winked at me. I felt my cheeks burning so i quickly turned around.
"Oh my god. Alana. Why are you being so antisocial? I invited you to this party because i know how you've hard trouble making friends at school. So come on Alana! Get out there!"
Ugh. She doesn't get it. The reason i'm being so quiet is because i like someone i can never have. There is no worse feeling in the world.
"I totally agree with Alysia. You need to get out there." Nia says.
"Just shut up! I'm done with your bullshit! I came here to have a good time. Not a long time. And you guys are ruining it for me!" I scream.
"Oh my god. Chill out." Nia says.
I get mad and throw the little fruit punch i have left in her face.
"You bitch!" Nia screams at me.
Alysia looks in disbelief, "damn. that was a little far alana."
Nia walks off and I know this is gonna be a rough tonight. Nia will probably try to get me back tonight. It's just what she does. I try to not let it get the best of me. Alysia walks off while bumping me in the shoulder. Wow. What an asshole. Where is Gianna? I look in the corner and see her making out with her crush Dilon Chanton. Great. I walk off with a mad look on my face and a full cup of punch in my hand. I  bump into someone and i drop my punch and fall on the ground. Once i fall on the ground, the douche that ran into me fell on top of me.
It was Jon. I was on the floor and he was on top of me. I felt butterflies.
"I like this position." Jon winked.
"Ugh! Get off of me! As if." I say requoting my favorite line in my favorite movie.
Jon gets up and walks away with a smirk. I played that off pretty well. I acted like I hated him and i did pretty well.

I went on with my night until I heard Alysia scream,
"Alana! Come over here! We're playing spin the bottle."
I look at the group that was playing; Nia, Gianna, Alysia, Shaun, Mark, Austin, and lastly...Jon. I make eye contact with him and he smiles at me.
Well. I walk over to the circle and sit down right across from Jon. Unintentionally. I swear.
"So. Who's going first?" I say.
