My One True Friend

Chapter 5

"So tell me, is he hot?"

I was currently at Victoria's house for a sleep over. I know what your probably thinking, "How is she at a sleepover and going to maintain her non nerdy self without her glasses and stuff?" Well first of all I have the contacts that you can sleep in without ruining my eyes. Second of all i am currently not wearing contacts because of the gummy bear making my contact fall out, which was indeed my last pair, therefor i have decided that i'd rather be blind than blow my cover.

Anywas, back to the situation at hand, Victoria is asking me tons of questions about Jason, my former best friend/annoying new neighbor. It's been a week since school has let out, a week since the Kiniki's moved back to Texas, right next door to my house might I add, and a week since Zach and I have seen/spoken to each other.

He hasn't answered any of my texts or calls and it's just getting ridiculous. I know he must be having fun but I'm his girlfriend for crying out loud! I deserve an explanation of some sort. He certainly better know that he is in for a rude awakening when he comes back home.

Before I get too caught up in my own head, I answer her question, "No...not really, he's okay though."

She replied with a hint of sarcasm in her voice, "Yeah right, I bet he's gorgeous and you just don't want to admit it."

"Okay so maybe your right, but I wouldn't say he's HOT, but definitely cute. Yes, cute is the perfect way to describe his appearance."

"Hmmm, well I need to get a good look at him myself, because I can't trust your judgement."

A little hurt, I replied, "Well then, excuse me for not having the same taste as you."

"It's okay love! I was just messing with you," she ended that by blowing me a kiss.

After we laughed at our behavior for a couple minutes, we got on with our sleepover.

It was about 1:00 am and we had watched two movies, ate one large cheese pizza, and talked about Jason during almost all of it. Victoria hasn't had a boyfriend since the seventh grade, and that only lasted for about a week because it all ended up being a dare. So technically she's never really had a true boyfriend. Now she wants me to find out everything there is to know about him and wants me to help set them up. Fan-freaking-tastic.

"So is Jason into an-" Victoria started, but I was quick to cut her off.

"Enough talk about Jason, I came to have a sleepover and hangout with one of my best friends, not talk about stupid Jason the whole time! So if that is all you brought me here for then I'll just leave."

Victoria looked quite shocked, and as I started to gather my stuff she spoke up, "Okay look I'm sorry. I didn't know you were so touchy about it, if you want me to stop, I will stop, but please don't leave."

"I know I overreacted and I'm sorry too, you know I love you and the day I walk out on you is the day I truly have problems because I would never do that if I were sane."

We hugged and made up, then decided we should probably get some sleep. As soon as I shut my eyes I immediately began to feel how tired I really was. It was a matter of minutes before I was out like a light and off into my dream world I went.

After me and Victoria woke up, we ate some pancakes and headed over to my house. In my back yard I have a screened in, underground pool. She went to change in the bathroom while I was trying to decide which bikini I was going to wear. It took a couple minutes, but I had finally found the one that I wanted to wear. It was a strapless, Victoria Secret bikini, with orange bottoms and a rainbow sequined top.
