Chapter Thirty-five: Hottie McSugarBuns
"You're not being fashionably late with what you're wearing."
I looked down at my leggings and shirt and back up at Zahra. "There literally has to be a compliment hidden there somewhere."
She just shrugged.
I scowled at her. "I am always fashionable so that better not be an insult."
"It would've been, but then you pulled that face." She teased.
I rolled my eyes at her.
"What took you so long?" Xander questioned as he handed me the bottle of coke he was drinking from.
I took a sip and was about to answer, but Leyla grimaced. "I know you two have this whole saliva sharing friendship thing, but you don't have to show it."
Xander chuckled and I just gave her an incredulous look. "We do not share saliva. I just drank out of his bottle."
"What's that called?"
"You're such a big baby." I mocked.
"Am not."
Xander repeated his question before we went into a war of 'am nots' and 'are toos'.
"The house is pretty far from here."
"Has it become a habit to skip school now?" Kai asked.
"I also noticed your honeybun was absent too." Zahra added.
I smiled. "Guess who has a new boyfriend?" Leyla, Zahra and I exchanged looks and then squealed, really loudly. This was like me and Rev at the hospital all over again. I'm so unlike myself these days.
Xander blocked his ears. "What is this, elementary school?"
"That's not important." Leyla dismissed. "Charvi's dating Hottie McSugarBuns."
What the butt?
"Hottie Mc-what?" I laughed. "Please never say that again."
"Why not?"
"The actual question is not why not? but why?"
"That doesn't matter. Do you remember this? 'He doesn't see me that way, I'm just his friend'." Kai imitated.
They all laughed and I rolled my eyes. "That was a horrible impression of me."
"Yeah. It was more like this, 'He's in love with some hot model and I'm just a walrus that eats too much for my own good.' Zahra imitated as well.
This time I laughed with the rest of them. "I never said that."
She shrugged. "That's what I heard."
"That's what you chose to hear."
"What's the difference?"
"Don't couples have better things to do than mock their friends?"
They looked at each other. And next thing we knew, Zahra was on his lap and they were kissing. Leyla, Xander and I groaned.
Xander grumbled. "Char!!! You gave them ideas."
"It wasn't my intention." I fake sobbed as I begged them to stop.
They joined in my fake sobbing as Zahra and Kai began laughing at our dismay.
********
"Ouch!"
