Knowing Asher

Chapter|15|

"Wow," I breathed out as I stared at the transformation.

The outside had been changed into something magnificent. There was a fire pit in the middle and a hot chocolate station at a corner. There's a food buffet and a grill station. There were warm, fluffy blankets placed around the fire pit.

The night sky was really giving the whole scenery. "They really outdid this," Amanda muttered beside me.

I walked to the food buffet, curious to see the food available. I gasped when I saw the different types of food present. Burgers, s'mores, hotdogs and sausage, steaks and chops, pudgie pie, fresh fish fillet, and even some fresh veggies. Let us not forget the gooey marshmallow and chocolate sandwiched between two graham crackers.

There was also a punch stand, but I bet some people will still sneak alcoholic drinks. I couldn't wait to try everything. Nobody was eating anything yet, so I couldn't embarrass myself by being the first. I just had to wait for this to start.

The teachers were sitting in a corner watching us. "Evening guys, welcome. This bonfire is going to be so much fun. We have a lot of activities planned out. We will start with dinner and then move to guitar playing the games," Daniel explained, standing in front of us.

We walked back to the food station. I picked up a plate and put a little of everything on it. I grabbed a cup of hot chocolate. The brown, steamy liquid is thick with white marshmallows floating on top. I took a sip, and it is really divine.

"Don't eat too much, we don't want you to become fat and more ugly now, do we?" A voice snarled behind me, and Angela scoffed.

I groaned before turning around to face the speaker.

Just my amazing luck!

I thought I was going to be able to avoid this during this trip. "I didn't know you care so much about me. Don't worry, food doesn't make me fat. I don't have to starve myself to maintain this perfect figure like some people," I retorted, eyeing the little food on her plate.

"Yeah, well_" she was cut off by Amanda.

"We don't need your bad vibes right now. So why don't you carry on out of here?"

"Look who it is? The school slut!" She paused. "I am not like you Katrina who has fucked all the boys in our school. You are the true slut." Amanda contorted and I smiled at her comeback.

She didn't reply, she just faked a yawn and scanned our faces."Long time no see girls. I am feeling nauseous just by looking at your faces. Is that makeup you all have on?" Katrina snickered and I gasped.

She didn't just say that. It was useless exchanging words with her.

"Thanks for gracing us with your presence. We will leave now because you are boring us with all this dumb talk. Bye." I faked a smile and pulled Amanda with me. I can't think of what would happen if we stayed there for another minute.

How dare she call Amanda a slut? I wished I could have thought of a better comeback than that. No one messes with my friends.

We settled in one of the blankets and the tension in the air was thick. Everyone was now in a foul mood even Angela. "Okay guys, we are not going to allow that ugly witch spoil our mood. We are going to enjoy this party. Who is with me?" I smiled raising my hand and I can see a little smile creeping onto their faces.

This was Angela's job but I have got to do this. Katrina came onto them because of me. They raised their hands up and I breath out a sigh of relief.

"I can't believe you are the one cheering us," Angela grinned and I rolled my eyes.
Me either!
