It is all I have been able to think about the last few days.
The dream. The party. The kiss, that clearly meant nothing to him, but is stirring me up inside.
How could he kiss a girl so easily while having eyes for another girl? Now that I think about it, it must have been for her to see. She was there, and so was Jeremiah. It makes me so angry to think about, but honestly, he is not at fault. This is all fake, and it's my fault for bringing all these weird feelings into it.
If there is any.
I mean, maybe I don't like Conrad. Maybe I just never been kissed before and that was exciting for me. Or maybe that dream was just because I was bored, and wanted to create some exciting story behind the kiss last night.
Yes, maybe it's that.
When I woke up, I found a letter on the ground to an invitation to a so-called "4th of July party" at a beach. I haven't really talked to Conrad in a couple of days, or even seen him. So I'm guessing this was from either Jeremiah or Belly.
So right now, I am looking between three different outfits, trying to pick out which one would look flattering but also be comfortable.
"Shit," I hear someone saying behind me. I turn around and it's a girl that I haven't seen before.
"Hello, My bad, I thought this was Conrad's room," she says, while giving me a smile.
"Actually, I don't think he's here right now." I say, and she sighs.
"Man. He said he would help out at the damn party," she says, while walking over to me and looking at the outfits on the bed.
"These are cute. Are you coming to the beach party?"
"Yeah, but I have no clue what to wear and honestly, I am not getting anywhere,"
She laughs as she places one of the outfits up in front of me to see how it looks.
"Okay well, this one you could walk around and not be an uncomfortable mess but with this one you could potentially have a makeout sesh with someone," she said while pointing at the cute black dress I had bought the other day.
Now that I look at it, it is very cute, but not for the beach.
"Well-"
"Oh right! You're that fake girlfriend of his!" she said, while looking at the jewelry on my bed.
"Fake girlfriend?" someone says from behind us.
I turn around and see a tall guy with the most beautiful slit back hair.
"Uhm, well. How-how do you know," I say, obviously confused.
"Friends with Conrad. He told me."
"And him." I say, pointing at the guy that is now leaning against the door frame.
She shakes her head and goes towards him.
"This guy. He's my brother, he will keep his mouth shut." she says, while giving him a threatening place.
"Yes ma'am," he says, while still looking over at me.
"Ma'am? Ma'am" she says, and he suddenly starts to run.
"I am only 1 year older than you!" she says, while running after him.
I look over at my closet and see a cute skirt I could wear with the shirt on my bed.
Today I'll forget about that damn kiss and talk to other people besides Conrad. And, I'll remember our "relationship" is all fake.
"Hey!" I hear from behind me.
"I know we just met and all but, could you pretty please help us out with the party," she says, placing both of her hands up, pleading.
"Uh, yeah sure! Let me just get ready." I say. She gives me two thumbs up and closes the door.
That kiss never happened. Today, I will completely forget about it all.

The party looks like the most out of the top but amazing party I have ever been to. Inflatables everywhere, food stations, bars, a bunch of photo stations, a bunch of people, and a whole lot of beer.
"Hey," I hear someone next to me say. I turn my head, and it's the guy from earlier.
Now that he's closer, he is much taller than what I thought he was. But not scary tall, more like average tall.
"You should run while you are at it," he says, while not breaking eye contact with me.
"Huh?"
"The party. It's going to get hectic. It's- well," he laughs, and walks around in a circle before coming back towards me again. His smile looks like it could burst out of his face any second now. And his cheeks looks like someone dumped a bunch of blush on it and didn't hold back.
"Sorry," he says, while laughing and still smiling.
"It's just that I get nervous talking to pretty girls,"
Now I can't hold back from smiling. I probably look like an idiot smiling as if I just got a million dollars.
"And I'm not sure what a gorgeous girl like you is doing, allowing some guy to only fake date you to be honest," he says, while shaking his head.
"I know it's none of my business, but- I just think you deserve much more,"he says.
I still can't get anything out of my mouth. And, I am still smiling like an idiot, but trying to hide a bit.
As he walks away, he brushes his hand against mine and gives me as smile.
"See you, Olivia"
As he walks away, I stand there, trying to process what just happened.
"What you smiling about,"
I turn around and see Conrad with a can of beer walking towards me.
"Nothing," I say, trying to hide the smile.
"Okay then," he says and stands next to me.
Suddenly I get a notification on my phone. I pick it up and see it's from my mother's facebook page. I quickly open it.
"So you know about..."
Conrad talks, but I can't hear anything he is saying. I only hear silence.
On my screen I see my mother in a beautiful dress and her boyfriend next to her with a suit and tie. Not any dress though, a beautiful white wedding dress. The next video I see is her walking down the aisle towards him. And then I see a photo of her, her boyfriend, and his kid all posed next to each other.
I stand there in shock.
My mother is married.
She is married and she didn't even think of inviting her only daughter.
She got married and didn't even think of telling her only daughter.
I place my phone down and look into the distance.
If I were to be completely honest, nothing feels real right now. It all just feels like a fever dream.
She, after everything, still decided to marry him. And that is what hurts the most.
