Yes, Love Sucks

Chapter 3

'' Can you not see a 5'8ft woman walking out of the bathroom, did you really had to spill your drink on my boots.'' I screamed at the guy who shamelessly spilled the drink all over my lovely favorite boots, searching for a tissue nearby and quickly going besides Tate, sitting right next to her on the couch where all girls who signed up for being the prize were sitting.

''this day really couldn't get worst''. I tell Tate as I am cleaning my boots.

Tate isn't really concerned and continues staring at the competitors. She tells me, ''omg all of them are looking sexy. Look at the one with red hair, skinny but naah he is too short for you. OH look at that other guy, eating like the world is gonna end tomorrow. but most importantly let's search for the guy who is really going to win this contest and you gonna spend the night with.'' 

Tate starts observing all of them even more closely, giving her full effort to find the right guy i get to spend night with.

''Hey Tate, stop it, I am not wandering off tonight leaving you all alone. I never left your side before on your bad days, and today is not going to be that day either.''

But today she is in no mood to listen to me at all. She even seems a bit upset with me. and she goes again ''look at that guy, I can't see his face properly. The one with the black hair, I bet he looks really cute. It looks like he is going to win this competition, get ready Dii, contest is almost coming to an end.'' 

All the boys are munching as if they never seen any food in their life before. Some boys began to give up as they reach the end, some were hurryingly eating more and more to win the competition. But he was calmly finishing his food with all manners in the world and apparently it's making him win the contest. The bell dong rings and everyone is silent for a second before they are start cheering with his name. It is too much of chaos. We still can't see him properly with everyone gathering around and cheering for him.

We head to the bar. Tate orders her drink while i order something to eat. My stomach has been growling for an hour now. Fries are the best comfortiest food  to ever exist and after all fries are also Tate's fav snacks.

On the other side of bar, the winner is getting a trophy for being the Big Food Eater Of The Year. Tate and I are talking about the night and how one day we will be owning a  bar and conduct many contests so that everyday someone gets lucky.

As we are talking, I hear a voice from my back, ''Your boots seem clean as new'', he saw, he saw me shout, it means everybody else saw too, oh my god it is already embarrassing, my first impression would have been so weird, he would think I am a hothead. ''I got a special spray'', I say, looking like an even big idiot.

Tate interrupts to save me and offers him a drink but he seems too eager to spend time with me, he looks at me and says, '' The night is not getting any younger, we should head out.''

Tate is right, he is cute. He has got this Hazel eyes and his hair is all messy. After all, she has better taste in boys than me. Guess I don't regret being signed up without consent after all.

I look at Tate with suspicion but she assures me that it will be alright and points me to head out.

I cannot leave Tate alone and that too today, after she has had such a devastating day. I tell him, ''firstly eagerhead, I don't come alone, Tate comes with me and secondly I am too hungry and it seems like you can really use a drink to tolerate us for the night.''

''It's Archilles, sweetheart, as my friends call me Arch, The Warrior, i guess i can handle you two and what should i call you princess''

''Diana, Diana Perez and she is my bestfriend Tate.''

''Well Diana and your friend here, Tate I would love to take you both out for the night, maybe go bowling or go home and watch a movie instead.''

I curiously look at Tate who is sipping the last part of her drink. She nods yes like a carefree adventurous girl she really is. Well, we did make a deal to have fun tonight and not talk about what happened and forget the past and live in the present. So, i guess i need to go with the flow.

As much as i would love the option to stay back at home in my comfy blankys, sipping coke and munching fries but for the sake of Tate, I tell him, ''i never tried bowling before, maybe you could give me a lesson or two.'' 

''What, are you kidding me??? well then today you are going to experience one hell of a night. Consider it been your lucky day.'' 

I look excited but also sad cause its been one hell of the day. I think i can use some joy after all it's almost December. Tate looks all happy after having her drinks but i know she is been drinking to forget today as well. The waiter hands me my fries and we all head out in his car. Me and Tate rode here by cab cause i knew she would be all drunk and wasted and i would have crashed my car today, again. So, cab was the safe option.
