Well, it's been a while since Noah joined the club. Ever since, it has become livelier than before. Zoey has been laughing and constantly pranking Noah. Zoey has been laughing and her mood brings a smile to all of us. She is like an angel of smiles. Noah has been really nice to us. Turns out that he isn't much of a thug. He just looks really mean, but has the heart of an angel. And then there's her. The most angel-like out of all three of them. Beautiful and nice. But, what's been bothering me is that I never knew her name. We have been in the club together for a while now, but I don't know her name. I don't think Noah or Zoey does either. I guess I should ask her, since I never got to know it.
It's around 5:46 right now. Our school is open until 6, because of student council meetings, club meetings, and whatever else the school does.
"Ugh, let's all finally go home now after hours of fun," Zoey said as she stretched.
We all started packing our bags and cleaning up the room. We stood up and exited the door. We made sure to lock the room. Noah and Zoey joked and she just laughed. I just walked behind them alone, just reading my book. They may be part of my club, but I am not close enough to call them friends yet.
"Hey, Zenon. Why aren't you joining in on their jokes?" she asked.
"Huh? Oh. I'm not much of a funny person. And besides I will just kill their mood."
"Well, that's not good. Hmmm... Are you busy tomorrow?" she asked.
"No.. Why do you ask?"
"Do you want to come over? I mean, my parents aren't home and uh.. I have something that I want you to see. Uh, it might help you..."
This girl just asked me if I wanted to go to her house. Just us two alone in a girl's house. What is this plot build up? It's way too convenient for a guy like me. But this is a chance.
"Sure, I would come over. But if it's okay with you," I said.
"Yeah, it's okay. Uh, so can I have your number?
"Oh yeah. It's 573-xxxx."
"Okay, thanks. I will see you tomorrow, I guess."
"Hey, what you guys talking about?" A date? No, you guys are talking about couple stuff?" Zoey and Noah teased.
I looked at "her" and she was blushing. She looked like an apple. But it was kind of cute. I started to feel a little bit hot. Oh no. Am I blushing?
"Hey, look. They're both blushing. Ooooooh~," they teased.
"Oh screw off," I said.
Then I started to laugh and then we all started to laugh. Why am I laughing? Why am I laughing with other people? Am I happy, so I'm laughing? So, this is what it's like to laugh with other people. Yeah, I think I am happy, but probably won't last long.
--------------------
Well, I am currently standing in front of her house. This is awkward. First time ever going to another person's house. Not to mention a girl's. Who knows what might happen? What will she show me? New games, cds, dog?? Huh, what if she is going to show me her new clothing? Maybe even the underwear. Snap out of it, me. Okay, here I go. My heart is pounding, I feel hot, and I open my mouth ready to call her.
I am sitting in her room. There are posters on her wall, a bed with blue covers, a desk with books and paper, and a table where I am sitting in front of. She is sitting on her bed, looking at the ground.
"So, uh. What is it that you wanted to show me?" I asked.
"Huh? Oh! Let me go find it," she said, and she ran out of the room.
Well, I'm alone again. I mean, I don't know what to do and all, so might as well just sit here.
"Okay, I'm back. Here you go," she said.
What is this?
"A joke book? I don't get it," I said, confused.
"You looked so bored and I thought you needed something to make you laugh, so I bought it. I just didn't know when to give it to you."
A present? From another person? This is my first time as well. I never got a gift from anyone, not even my parents. She is taking all my first time experiences. Wow, that came out wrong.
"You don't like it? It's okay if you don't," she said.
"What? No. I like it. Thanks," I replied.
"Phew~ Thank god. I thought you might not like it."
Well, it is a pretty lame present, but I don't have the heart to say that. Especially not to her. Well, we have been sitting here for an awkward minute, at least.
"So..," she said. "Do you like video games? If you'd like, want to play with me? I have an extra controller."
What? This girl likes video games? Where can you find a girl that actually PLAYS games? This is a rare species of "Gamer girl."
"Sure, I would love to play," I said.
So, we went to the living room and sat on the couch. She booted up the games and we played together. This was actually fun. Who knew that playing games with other people for once was this fun? And she's really good, too. We laughed and played for about 2 hours. After, we ate pizza. She ordered the pizza, but I offered to pay for it. Pretty soon, it got pretty dark.
"Well, it's dark. I should be going now," I said. "Thanks for today, I had a lot of fun."
I stood up to leave, when I felt a tug at my shirt. I turned and saw her grabbing my shirt.
"A little longer. Or can't you just stay the night?" she asked.
She sounded really sad or something like that. Stay the night? I can't do that. This means it's just us two together, with NO adult supervision.
"I never had anyone over to my house, before. I never thought it would be this fun. Everybody else just hates me. The girls and the guys think I am like a slut or something. So I never had friends. But, when I joined the club, I met three new people, who I could call friends. And I never thought having a friend over could be so fun. And I don't want it to end yet. I know it's too much to ask and I'm sure you wouldn't want to, but please stay a little longer," she said.
She was crying. This girl, who always had a smile on her face since I saw her, was crying. What do I do? Is this when the guy hugs the girl to make her feel better?
I went to hug her. I felt her tears on my shoulders. I held her close. I patted her back. What am I supposed to do?
"Uh, don't cry. I mean, I never got an invitation to anyone's house before, so I kind of understand you. But, if it's okay with you, I will stay the night, I guess. So don't cry," I said.
So that's how I ended up in this situation.
