Broken

Chapter Eighteen

I looked at my reflection in the mirror my cheeks flustered from the kiss that just took place. I had thought it to be a great kiss, but maybe I did a part of it wrong. From what I used to read in girl magazines that kiss should have had some strong effect on him, but he just up and left without telling me why. Was it the end of a relationship that had just started? I always seem to mess everything up.

I collapsed on my bed looking at the ceiling and soaking in self-pity. I messed it up; I wish I could have a do over. I rose from the bed and slowly with a heavy heart take off my clothes. I really liked Andre and I was going to agree on a date if he asked, but now it seems as if that will never happen. Just great.

I dug through my closet for baggy clothing. I found a Sponge Bob t shirt and a Patrick the Star pants. Maybe Sponge Bob can cheer me up? I walked back to the kitchen to make a few bowls of popcorn, the smell of butter made my mouth water, I took a few. The television had unlimited channels and I had all I needed, this was my first sleepover.

I looked at the time it was almost seven, they should have been here by now. I folded my knees under me and pet Marshmallow, he had become a really spoil rabbit. I held him up and looked him in his face. "Do you think they are coming?" I asked him. But he wouldn't be able to answer because he is a rabbit, however, if he did I would be glad to have a friend.

Again I looked at the clock it was after seven, I felt a bit disappointed that they actually stood me up. Today was good but then it took a wrong turn. I continued petting the speechless rabbit as the Viagra commercial played. Aren't men ashamed to take part in these commercials I mean who wants to say 'Hi I'm Bob and I have erectile dysfunction and Viagra has helped me, so you should try it.' If I did that I think I would be mortified. How do they even end up with erectile dysfunction?

The commercials went on for what felt like forever until Arrow came back on. I am in love with Oliver Queen so sexy. He and Felicity would make the perfect couple. If only he weren't married and she didn't already have a boyfriend and was all the way from Canada I would set them up or take him for myself. Diggles is the ultimate but he has a baby with his ex-wife on the way just very confusing, but I love it. I just had a fan girl moment.

The annoying sound of the doorbell ringing caught my attention and taking me out of my fan girl moment. I had the rabbit in one hand and I slowly backed away from the television not wanting to miss a thing on the screen even though I have watched it multiple times. I felt for the knob and opened it, there stood Maria, Beth and a cute little red head girl.

"Sorry we are late but there was a lot of dilemma over my house just now with Andre." Maria walked in.

"What's up with him?" I asked trying to get information.

"He is frustrated I think. I heard him and Ryan discussing the other day that he really liked this girl but all he asked her out she wouldn't say yes and the anxiety is eating him." She dropped her bag on the floor and plopped down in the couch. "I have never seen him like this before. He came home not too long ago and he looked ticked off about something, Ryan is always over my house so he asked him what happened and he mumbled something but I didn't catch it. I went to tell him dinner was ready and he literally almost killed me with glares. Like his woman problem was my fault. He left without saying good bye he even took his bag." She finished but in all honesty his women problem was sort of her fault, but I didn't say a word I just looked at her go on. When Maria was finish she sighed and said she felt sorry for him.

I really want to put him out of his misery but I don't think he'll ever want to speak to me again. He was frustrated that I wouldn't say yes but I was going to and if he asks I am going to say yes. I looked over at Beth who had been listening to the story silently; the little girl next to her looked alike. The little had her thumb in her mouth and tear stained face.
