HEART SRINGS
Am I the one you want?
When everyone and no one's watching
-a.k𖤐
"YOU'RE GOING OUT?" My mother shouted over the phone on speaker as I told her I was going to meet up with the "gang" at the Counter Pocket. "And you're letting her?" My mother questioned my father who was on the other line as I pulled up to the bar. "Mom, I have my tasers on me."I said trying to reassure her hoping she could find some comfort in that. "Good, sweetie, I'm getting the first flight." She told me as I got out of my car, say our I love yous and goodbyes. SMACK went the balls as they all spread across the pull table being hit by Mindy. "Yay, look who made it our favorite rich girl." Liz joked while taking a sip of what I assumed was vodka. I smiled, while Mindy poured vodka in my coke.
A few drinks in we start talking about Tara and all the madness currently going on in Woodboro. "So what is she like, the sister?" Liv asked, looking around waiting for an answer, "Sam? Oh..Sam is so cool." Chad complimented, with a huge smile. "Okay, you only say that because she let you wear Pokemon onesies to bed for a year." Mindy pointed out, hitting her ball. "That's true. That's a true statement." Chad agreed as we all laughed at the thought and picture of Chad in a Pokemon onesie. "Trust me Sam is not cool." Amber told Liv.
"Her Dad left her Mom, right? Walks right out when Tara's 8, Sam's 13. Tara just needs someone to lean on, to get through it, but Sam goes nuts. Started drinking, doing drugs, getting arrested, her 18th birthday comes around boom she completely goes MIA no words, no contact with any of them" Amber told Liv. her words starting to Tick me off, "Am I get it you don't want to see Tara hurt but you don't know why Sam left the way she did, or what she was going through so u should shut the hell up about it and stop being a gossipslut." I stated, taking a sip of cheap booze from Mindy. "Oooo..someones had a few too many." Mindy jokes, grabbing both sides of my shoulder placing her chin on the top of my shoulder. "A slut?" Amber went on, "Well isn't that kinda rich coming from you considering we all know what happened at Wes's Halloween party last October. Weren't you being a slut that night." Amber expressed with venom, the room was silent, eyes trained on me. I saw Chad's eyes linger on to mine. While mine were trained on Amber, whose face racked with guilt, "Alex..I didn't mean it.." she started only to be cut off "What? Little Miss perfect Alexandria Riley a slut? For who?" Liv blurted out, leaning against Chads whose eyes were locked on mine.
"Wait, everyone knows but me?" She continued on, "Go ahead Amber..since I was slut 3 months ago." I spat, "Hey, hey you're not a slut no one's a slut." "—Hey Alex sorry to interrupt but our performer called in sick, could you maybe..." Craig the owner interpreted dragging out his words holding a mic. "Sure, I need a get away anyway." I assure taking the mic glaring at Amber as I walked past her and towards the stage. Not before chugging the rest of the vodka in Mindys hand.
"Hey, everyone I'm Alex I hope you're all enjoying yourselves." I spoke into the mic as they cheered. "I'm gonna play you guys something if you don't mind." "Play!" Mindy shouted through the crowd half waisted, holding her glass up. I looked over to the guitarist signaling I was ready soon starting,. "Hold me while you fall asleep, tell me i'm in all your dreams." I sang, earning cheers and smiles from my friends. '"Cause it's good, yeah it's alright, just me and
You." My eyes soon drift over to chads who were already in my rearview,"And maybe I think too much, but am I the one you want?
That wedding invite comes, will I still be your plus one?
Would you pull me to the center for that slow song?
Am I the one you want? When
We're at a crowded bar and everybody's talking"~~~~
I made my way back to the group who cheered and quaked over my performance, "I thought you quit." Chad stated, eyebrows furrowed, taking a sip of his vodka. "I've been writing." I expressed with faint eyes not looking in his direction. "Well you were amazing, who's the guy?" "—yo Liv her dirtbag ex boyfriend interrupted you want a real drink or you enjoying a seat at this kids table?" He asked husky, checking her out. Just looking over at Chad seeing the expression he wore on his face I could tell he was pissed. "Hey listen up uglier Michel Myers." Chad spoke walking up to the guy "It was a summer fling it meant nothing." Chad was pissed more pissed than I've ever seen him, meaning he really cares. Meaning he is really in love with her the thought of that lead me to take another shot, " Was I taking to you?" I heard him say "I dont fucking care who your talking too." Chad spat back, out of nowhere Vince pulled out a pocket knife. Chad froze where he stood. A bartender soon threatened to call the cops causing him to leave, "Man, fuck you!" Chad shouted, having the last word.
"Hey, you kids too and Alex thanks for filling in." Crystal, one of the bartenders, spoke as I smiled, stumbling into Chad as the others walked ahead. "Someones a hothead tonight," I joked, grabbing my jacket. "And someone waisted." He resorted back, grabbing his own. "No one likes a bitter jock." I commented causing him to smile as he slowly cooled down "Can you hand me my keys?" I asked, reaching across the pooltable, "There's no way in hell you're driving home, your dad would kill me if I let you." He asserted, as he took my keys walking toward the door I soon followed chasing after my keys. We met up with everyone in the front parking lot, "Hey, Mind your bestfriend here cant drive herself home–" "I can too drive myself." I interrupted, reaching for my keys as he dangled them away in his hand. "She can't. So you drive my car and drop Liv off then come get me?" He asked his sister to sort everything out, Mindy nodded as Chad threw his keys to her.
Soon kissing Liv goodbye as he sat in the driver's seat of my car. "So why get drunk tonight?" He questioned me as we walked into my front door. "I'm not drunk." I assured him with a high pitched voice, going up the stairs as he followed, mhm he mumbled out as I plopped on my bed with a bright smile. "Where's your dad?" Chad asked, taking my shoes off. "With everything going on, ghostface is making him come out of retirement." I spoke getting comfortable in my sheets, he soon sat on the edge of my bed. "Don't." I told him once more as his arm reached for my shoulder "Chad I ca–I can't love you in the dark and watch you be with Liv in the light. I can't." I spoke turning over facing him, "Just answer me this...did it mean something?"
"It did. But it can't."
