I ran into Jason's house and set my bag down by the front door. "Selena cálmate." He walks as I step on the back of my shoes to take them off. "I need to shower, Im seeing a boy later." I look at him and do a little happy dance. I rush to my room in the house that he helped finish while I was recovering before. "Oh." I stop when I see Chad in the room sitting on my bed. "What are you doing here?" I asked as I opened the door the bathroom in my room. "I'm staying for the summer thank you so much for finally noticing." I grab my work out shirt and pull it over my head. "Oh shit. Your parents let you do that?" I leave the door open to hear him. "My parents are getting a divorce." He explains. I gasped and when my shorts hit the floor I shimmied over to the doorway. "Did Anna leave your dad or did your dad leave her?" My eyes widened as I scan his face. "What do you think? My dad fucking sucks." He laid down on my bed. I see bags on one side of my room, and some of his clothes scattered around. I looked back into my bathroom and see another toothbrush by mine. "So you've been staying in my room since I left?" I questioned. "Yeah." I put my hand into the shower and turn the water on to warm up. "Get in here. Catch me up." I say as I lower the toilet seat and then take the rest of my underwear off. I slip into the shower and grab the hair clip I keep on the shower shelf to put my hair up. I hear Chad walk in and sit right down onto the toilet seat. "Oh I'm a bit can you grab my bag? It's by the front door I left my dress in it." I asked. "Yeah sure." "I said I wanted to talk the other day and ask if you'd want me to go to your school. Mom said being around someone familiar wouldn't be a bad idea and she'd move here for me if I'd want that." "Chad that sounds fucking awesome!" I grab my body sponge and pour my soup onto it before lathering myself. "Does it really?" He sounded unsure of my reaction. I finished up my super quick shower, so I turned the water off. "Yeah why wouldn't it be?" I hear him get up and walk to the door. "It kinda sucks not being your favorite anymore. It's like you don't care about me anymore." I look at him through the curtain but I was too afraid of stepping out and looking at him. Pain radiated through my chest. "I'll get your dress." He said lowly before walking away. I stare at the wall blankly until I hear the bathroom door close. I pull the curtain open and step out, grabbing my towel hanging from the door. I see my bad on the floor and crouch down, I open the front pocket and take my two medicine bottles out. I took one of each and closed them back up. I blinked and suddenly I was dressed up and fixing up my makeup. I walked out and Jay was walking in and throwing my shoes into the room. "Bell boy is here with a girl." He loudly whispers, a look of confusion on his face. "Quien hace eso?" He judged. "Relájate I said he could." I grab my shoes and put them back on. "Hurry up I don't know these guys." He rushes. I stepped down into my shoes and walked out with him. "Hey!" I smiled, Melissa was setting a dish down on the kitchen island. "Hi hun." Melissa hugs and kisses my cheek. "When's food gonna be ready?" Scott asks. I look over to the full couch. "Okay guys who invited Lydia?" I see her seated next to Scott. "Gasp, it's your birthday and you'd expect me to not be here? Please." She stood up and grabbed me, pulling me into a hug. "Party starts at ten." She whispers into my ear. "What- hold on." "It's happening, I mass texted. It's already in motion." She shrugs proud of her self. "Ok well I'm confused." Melissa said, I see Scott talking to her. "They fought so why is she here? Was she invited?" Melissa very much loudly questioned Scott. Malia looked around uncomfortably on the couch. "I said she could come." I smile at Malia and she smiled back. "She's cool, feud over." I announce. "She's definitely stronger than me. Well come on guys foods ready." Jay laughs and calls out and everyone stands to sit at the table. We all sit and start eating, passing around the bowls of food. I like how Jay cooked everything and Melissa brought a store bought Mac and cheese bake. "What what is happening?" Melissa follows Jay as he puts multiple beers on the dining table. "It's traditional." He said as he hands on to me and I snatch it. "No-no!" Melissa reaches over to grab it from me but I pull away. "La gringa te quiere convierte!" Jason laughs obviously more than one beer deep. "It's what we do when people in our family turn sixteen! Besides a sweet sixteen pero it's just a sip mom don't worry." I give the biggest smile up at her. "Hey if she gets to drink one I do too." Scott takes one form Jason. "Guys this is not-" She looks at me and then at Jay trying to take the beer back from Scott. "It's just for the birthday girl dajame." Jay slaps Scott's hand away. "Fine. Just a sip." Melissa whispers and sits back down beside me. "It's okay I planned a girls sleepover tonight, I'll be driving her." Lydia continues to eat. "What is this?" She moans as she rips the skin off of the pernil and bites into it, the crunch sound radiated. "Girl it's pork." I laugh as I take a sip of the Heineken beer. "That's enough. That's it." Melissa takes the bottle and set it by her food. "Sel." Lydia caught my attention and flashed the time on her phone. "Oh it's almost girls night, we should start cleaning up." I stand up and grab my empty plate. "Vete yo limpio, go get ready to go don't worry." Jay stood up and grabbed the plates from me. "Ok I'm letting you go because it's your birthday but if you go anywhere else even the Walmart let me know." Melissa looked concerned. "Please."
