"Friday afternoon please. At La Cafe at 3. Meet you there?"
"Sure." I know she's gonna apologize for not telling me. I'm gonna forgive her anyway. I'm done with this 'no friends' shit I am in.
This week went by and I'm telling you Collins fans are so furious when he's hanging out with me. He and Mars joins me durimg break time coz I was always alone. He even forces me to give him my books or else. He is extra annoying this week. Friday came. I ran away from Collins becaise I don't want him insisting on giving me a ride home again. Ever since the night I got drunk. He picks me up every morning and gives me a lift home. He says he was afraid that his 'fans' would ambush me. Ugh.
I head to the mall. Where our favorite cafe is.
"Uhmm.. hi" Gess suddenly pops in front of my face.
"Hey" I flash a smile. It's not like we've never been friends, haven't we? She sat down nervously and bowing down her head. "Let's just order some drinks first."
4929192292 years later. "So how have you been?" She manages to finally speak to me.
Lets get to the point here. "Look Gess, I forgive you. It's not your fault. I was the one being blind and stupid." The tension in the air finally disolved.
"No Raffy! I didn't apologize yet so stop forgiving me." She pouts her lips that earned a smile from me. I missed this girl. "You know the day before the first day of school?" I nod. "Andrea told you that my flight didn't arrive yet right? Actually it already did. I arrived before the day we were supposed to go shopping. I didn't tell you guys beacause I want it to be a surprise." She takes a deep breath. "The day I arrived here I went straight to the mall. I wanted to buy you guys some things but........then I saw Shawn. I literally ran towards him because I thought you were woth him Raff...... but I was shocked when I saw Andrea clinging into his arm and kissing him. They both saw me so I just turn around and avoid them." She starts playing with her hair.
I stood there. Dead silent. Can you blame me? What was I supposed to say?. "Oh." Okay.
"That sneaky little bitch! They have been together for more than a month now.I am so sorry I didn't tell you right away.."
"Hey it's okay. I've moved on girl. I didn't even know why I loved him and/or did I really love him." Her face lightens up.
"Soooo friends?" She shows a nervous smile.
"Are you kidding me? No way we're gonna be friends!" She bit her lip and the word 'rejected' written all over her face. "...only Best Friends."
"Eeeeeep!" She stands up to hug me and almost spills our drinks. "Sorry, just got happy all of a sudden. Woooh! I feel much better about myself now."
"Enough with this topic. Got any news for me?" I sip on my frappe.
"Well, did you know Jean left the country? Her parents transferred her because they were afraid she will get pregnant beacause of her.....sexual activities."
"Really?! So that's why I didn't see her much at school." It's been what? A month of school now? And I didn't see her for like 2 weeks maybe?
"But I see you often at school." A smirk pasted on her lovely face. "....with the famous Christian Collins" I nearly choke on my own drink.
"Uhhh? I'm gonna tell you now. We are not I mean NOT together." waving my hands in the air.
"But I always see you together. Him carrying your books. Him annoying you during breaks. Him staring at you.." i jerk my head up to look at her.
"Uhh... he stares at me?" I hope so.
"Yeah. You didn't notice? Its hard not to notice those piercing green eyes."
"Well..." not sure of what to say.
"Well what?"
"Well nothing.."
After some chitchat...well its more like 'Gess annoying me and teasing about that Green-eyed monster liking me but I dont notice' conversation. We said our goodbyes and went part ways. She said she had to pick up her brother so I stayed behind a little bit. It feels good to reunite with a girlfriend. We are back to our old friendship...minus Andrea..minus Jean. Only the two of us now. I left the cafe and started walking around the mall. I texted Gess 'nice talking to you' while walking to the elevator. Smiling like an idiot.
"I see that the Goblin is busy huh?" Eeep! I almost dropped my phone.
"You gave me a heart attack idiot!" Pushing his shoulder. He just chuckles at my comment.
"I see somebody's on a good mood today."
"Well I was....until you came."
"So you were in a better mood when I showed up?" Smirk. I snort. My cheeks turning light pink. He's so full of himself. "Awww.. she's blushing. Does my goblin have little a crush on me?" He gives me a bone-breaking hug. I was supposed to throw an awesome comeback at him but...
"Chrissy? I wanna leave now...like right now?" A creature showed up in front of us giving me a disgusted look. She was tall, taller than me. She had olive skin. And is wearing a short dress that hug her beautiful body. Her hair was a dark red. And her face? She is .... well lets just say that mine is more human than hers. This was a wrong timing to wear a superman shirt and jeans. Is she his girlfriend? "And who are you supposed to be?" Wtf. I turn to Collins.
"So this is your girlfriend?" I cross my arms across my chest and raise an eyebrow at him.
"No, Im not his girlfriend.... I'm his soon-to-be wife. Chrissy? Who is this ugly girl asking personal questions and hugging you like a leach earlier?" My nose flares and I hear Collins say 'oh shit' before covering his mouth woth his tight fist. Did she just call me ugly?
"Excuse me?! First of all he was the one hugging me. And secondly, you should look at your butt ugly face before calling me ugly. And you can have Collins all you want! I don't fuckin care." I face the douche who didn't tell me that he has a girlfriend and didn't help me while it was talking shit to me. "Oh and goodluck with your girlfriend. Dont bother picking me up tomorrow... well don't bother talking to me or even approaching me." I enter the elevator and texted Gess.
Me: hey? Can you please come over? I just need someone to talk to.
