The music deafened me, as I pushed through a crowd of teenagers who behaved like possessed party animals. I brought my phone to my face and dialed the unfamiliar number that called before, he didn't pick up, I hastened my steps even though I didn't have any idea where he could be.
My phone rang, I rushed to bring it to my face, hoping it was the same random number, it wasn't, it was Demi.... I forgot we had plans this evening. Ignoring the call as to not get an earful from Demi I put the phone back into my pocket.
At this point I was upstairs hoping his friends had laid him on a soft bed."Alex!"
"Alex!!" I increased the volume of my voice.
"Alex!" I attempted once more.
"Julia?" Someone said behind me
"Caleb? Thank goodness it's you, have you seen Alex?"
"Erm..." he hesitated..
"Erm what?" I asked confused.
"Did Angelica tell you to come?" He asked
"Caleb! I'm looking for Alex, what does Angelica have to do with this?" I asked showing clear irritation and impatience.
"Fine, last room at the left" he said pointing behind me."Thank you!" I told him, my worrisome thoughts calming.
I got to the door and opened it."Alex?!" I yelled and turned on the light to a void full room, the first to greet was a shocked Jennie and a drunk Alex.
I didn't have to see anymore to understand what was going on.
Hearing the loud arguments a crowd already formed around us."I drove for 50minutes at 12 in the morning and you know how my mom is, for your drunk ass and this is the stuff I meet you doing.
"For fucks sake Julia!" He yelled and got up.
"Just let me rest, you follow me around like a dog every time, if you hadn't this time you wouldn't have seen this"
"Yo, Alex tell your bitch to calm down she's bumming me out." David one of his stupid friends said.
"Yea,yea. Just give a me sec sometimes she acts insane." He said with a snicker.That was more than enough for me, it was one thing to be cheated on another to be insulted by weaklings that only had strength in their gender.
" Fuck you." followed by a swift arm movement across his face, I pushed him backwards, the crowd of spectators watched in awe, holding back hot tears, I pushed through the crowd and walked out the house.
*************************************************
The bright morning sun lit up my room. A headache was first to greet me, I turned on my phone to see multiple missed calls from both Angelica and Demi. I sighed, pushed the phone aside and put my sheets over my head.
Suddenly someone barged into my room, it was Demi and Angelica."Get up now!" Demi said moving close to the bed.
" Leave me be" my voice was weak."Honey have you eaten" Angelica said taking my sheets off my head.
"It's just 8" I said
"8? Honey it's 2pm" Angelica replied showing me the time on her phone screen.
"Well I'm not hungry." I replied
"Don't be like that!" Demi and Angelica said in harmony.
"You will eat! We can't have to you being sick." Demi said
"Let's go make something for you to eat." Angelica said
"I don't feel like eating." I ended and covered my head with the sheets again.
I didn't hear anything from either of them so I assumed they both went out the room and accepted defeat, I closed my eyes to drift asleep.
The two suddenly bursted in again after a couple minutes."Here, your favorite ramen!" They said harmoniously again making me chuckle.
My mood lightened a bit and I sat up straight, resting my back on the bed stand"You both behave like twins."
"Just eat!"
"I will Demi!" I said a smile forming on my face.
"She smiled!!" Angelica said with a giggle.
A couple hours later, I was feeling better already, thank goodness I had these two by my side. Loud chatter filled the room accompanied by loud giggles. These two animals were the only ones helping me through this shity high school.
Before I realized evening had come, Demi and Angie were having a fashion show and I was the Judge. Angelica came out the toilet wearing a hilarious outfit and struck a silly pose. This made us all burst into laughter. At this point my stomach and cheeks started to hurt then I received a notification from my iMessage.
'We need to talk' the message said, I checked the number of the person who sent the message and it was Alex, noticing I read the message 'I'm at the park behind your street' he sent again.
