Morning is an important and fresh period of the day.It brings us new thoughts and energy.But for me this morning was torture.All i thought of was the events from last night.I woke up slowly, trying to get rid of the sheet all over my body which Justin must have covered me with while i was asleep.I looked over at the couch which i thought i slept in but it was empty.He must have carried me to the bed.I headed for the bathroom and the sight of me in the mirror made me gasp, not recognising the girl on the other side.My eyes were puffy and dark shades of mascara covering them.Lines of tears covered my face.My face was red and this nasty headache was not helping at all.The tension_type of headaches from extra tension in the body.My entire body feeling hurt.I had to call for a cab to get myself home since not suprisingly he left me here.Which some part of me was glad.I was not ready to face him anytime soon.
"Here,this will help you."
His voice made me jump a little.I thought he left.He said handing me a glass of water and some pills.
"I left to get you some of this.I thought you might need it to help you with the headache,"as if reading my mind, he said.
Without a word i took it from his hand making sure i avoided any form of touch.I made sure to avoid eye contact as well.I did not want him seeing me in this condition.He stood there for a while his eyes throwing daggers into my back before he left.I splashed water on my face getting rid of the mascara and the marks of dried tears.
"Hurry, we need to get going."He said holding the door wide open for me.
I followed him to his car.The ride home was silent.Uncomfortable silent.He parked on my driveway i got out of the car and ran for our porch.I think i heard him speak but i was already gone i could not here a word he said.
"Hey?Sel?Your Dad and I are really sorry about the whole Riri situation.Can we talk about it?"My mam said as i enter the house.
I had almost forgotten that i was mad at them for trying to keep my best friend away from me."Not right now mam!"i said heading for the stairs to my room.
"Young lady!"my dad shouted."And who do you think you are walking by when your mother is trying to apologise to you.Have you no manners left?Who told you its right to sleep outside just because you are angry at us.The last time i checked you were grounded Selena."
Grate just grate.With my back still faced at them, i continued walking to my room.The last thing i need was some lecture from my dad.I was in no right state of mind to hold a conversation this morning.
"Ken, i told you i will handle this.Just keep quiet okay."i heard my mam say to my dad as i unlock the door.Suddenly there was a knock on the door and the next thing i heard was Justins' voice.I thought he left already.Now what does he want.I ran back downstairs.
"Sel, he is here for you."My mam almost whispered, looking between me and Justin.
"You left this in the car.I tried calling you but you were fast."he said handing me my phone.
I snatched my phone from his hand and head for my room.I wanted to say thank you but i couldn't. Once i heard the door close and sure that he is gone i entered in my room and locked the door behind me.I threw my self on my bed and closed my eyes.Flashbacks of last night vivid and clear.Shaking my head to block the thoughts. I needed a hot shower.I had a class in the next forty five minutes.
*****************
It has been two weeks since i saw Justin.He has not been on campus to pick Riri.And i still have not told my bestfriend that i lost my virginity to his cousin.He must have been avoiding me.
"We have to take the bus again today."Riri said adjusting her backpack."Justin and Hailey are out of town for some",she raised her hand quoting"love vacation",she said rolling her eyes."But he is probably back".
"Oooh".Is all i said feeling hurt .So he has not been avoiding me, he is just living the best life with her girlfriend.
"Relationships are lame.Anyway are you still coming tonight.You know its our tradition."
"I would not miss it for anything."I sigh as i entered the bus grateful that it is not congested.
Riri and i have always had a sleepover after every three months.It has been our tradition since we were ten.We would watch and chat the entire night.Keeping the other updated about everything happening in our lives.I was nervous for tonight because i din't trust myself with that secret.We made a promise that if either of us lost their virginity we will share the information immediately, but due to the circumstances i was forced to break it.
"Hey sis?"Taylor called through the doorway."What is up with you and dad?"She let her self in."The sleepover her."She added grabbing my pajamas from my hand that i was just about to fold into the backpack.
"Give back Tee.Where have you been anyway it feels like forever since i last saw you."I said zipping up my bag and throwing it over my shoulders.
"School trip."
"Oooh.Me and Dad are okay just some misunderstanding.Goodnight baby sister."
"Can i tag along?"
"Jeez!your bed needs to be laid on.Have mercy on it"I smilled tapping her shoulder as i left for Riris place.
I had already informed my mother that i was not sleeping in tonight.Every step i took towards my bestfriends house all i thought of was Justin.Some part of me hoped he will be home but some part, that i dont ever see his handsome face ever again.Either way i knew i was going see him.
Once i arrived at their drive way i saw Hailey at the lawn making out with Justin.At that moment everything froze.My heart broke into a million pieces.I was just about to turn back and go back home when Riri shouted my name.She was standing at the door waving at me eagerly.I had no choice but to master all the courage i did not even i had it in me at that time and walk into the house.Everything was blurry.But crying was absolutely something i was not going to do.
"Hey, God you smell good Sel"she said while hugging me.
"Yeah i get that alot"i managed to smile at her.
"Hey?"i did not have to turn around to know whose voice that was."Um, i did not know you were coming"he added this time low, only i could hear.
I did not turn around to acknowledge his presence, neither did i respond.Instead i followed Riri upto her room.I just wanted to stay there all night and not see Justin at all.Just as i was about to enter Riris room, Justin grabbed my arm, making me turn around and before i could say anything or do anything his lips were on mine. For a moment i let him kiss me.His kiss were soft as i remembered.Sending shivers all over my body.I was getting weak again.I raised my hand push him away but they had a mind of its own.I slapped Justin, hard, right across his beautiful face.Well, that was unexpected even i was shocked.My eyes wide open.
"Hoe!"he said before he ran off down stairs.
I just stood there helpless.How could he.First i walk in on him sucking faces with that girlfriend of his, then he kisses me after he just kissed her.Now he is calling me hoe.I was so angry my body was shaking.My fingers tight into a fist.My teeth grinding hard on each other.I was about to followe him down stairs and give him a piece of my mind when i heard him shout to Hailey.
"Babe, come lets go to my room.I want to make love to you soo bad."
