Not Another Normality

Chapter 1

          I was laying in my bed on my computer with headphones in surfing through facebook when i suddenly got a notification from Jackson Ali. One of the richest kids in the neighborhood and one of my former high school party animals. It was a message going to all of his facebook friends saying " party tonight at my house, bring your friends-friends, and enemies. Tonight is gonna be fu***** Awesome!!" And below that was the address to his house, or shall i say mansion?
          So of course i was hyped to go to this party and already dialing all of my friends numbers, texting them, and tagging them in the comment section of Jackson' facebook post inviting them to this so called bombing party.
*******************
         Later that day my best friend Carter came over with two big bags obviously coming back from shopping and handed me one of them. I eagerly took out a clothing that was a skin tight dress and a pair of high heels. She, on the other hand, had the same but in a different style then mine.
" I figured since you and i live for parties i decided to save you the trouble and get you this sexy dress."
" Aww thanks girl. I owe you."
"No need, thats what best friends are for right?
We then both smiled and hugged for a minute till we got to getting dressed. After we got into the dress and heels, we both curled our hair and and did our makeup.
Right when we were about to head out the door, Carters fiancé, Justin texted her that all of our friends were already in the car and outside of my house waiting for us.
We both let out a squeal clearly exciting for tonight and got out the house. As soon as we got out the house we were both shocked to see that there were two cars in back of each other as the first car honked at us signaling to get in.
         As i open the car door i see that people are smushed together and i see my other best friend Kyle at the right end of the car. So i got in through a struggle next to him and Carter was right behind me. This car was really packed as seeing that people were sitting on our laps. The car in back of us was also filled with the rest of our click. There was, in no doubt, a lot of us.
            It took us about an hour to get over to Jackson's house. As we arrived, we pulled up to a mansion that already had the door wide open, couples making out in the front, red cups thrown everywhere and people passed out on the grass. As i took this all in i had a low tingle in my stomach and i held Carters hand tight, as it was a thing we both did when we were both scared or nervous. Alright guys and girls, Justin yelled out over the up coming noise, lets get this party started!
         As he said that there was a follow up of hoots and woos. Everybody was anxious to let loose. So me and Carter let our hands free and as we walked over to the house. As soon as we got to the house, the people that we arrived with scattered all over the place looking for a drink. There was a dance floor filled with people grinding on each other. The beat of the song was so loud it could make you deaf. So me and Carter decided to head to the kitchen and grab a drink so nobody would spike ours.
         Then her fiancé came behind Carter and spun her around beside me leading her towards the dance floor. I watched as he guided her waist on him and they both swayed to the music. With Carter having a drink in her hand and her long hair showing she was already having a great time.
I, on the other hand kept on filling my cup until Kyle, my best friend came up to me with his glistening green eyes.
" Wanna dance? He yelled into my ear through the noise.
         I quickly put my cup down agreeing to his request as he grabbed my hand. Instead of bringing me to the dance floor he brought me to the back of the house where there was a pond with lights and soft music playing in the background.
You couldn't even hear the music coming from the inside.
"Wait a second i thought you meant to dance inside."
He quickly responded with " Oh no i meant out here.I figured its more peaceful."
        Even though i was a little confused to his actions i still smiled and he smiled back as he pulled me into a slow dance.
We were already dancing for a few minutes in a peaceful atmosphere until Dave, one of our destructive and hard headed friends, came in with two giggling blondes on either side of him.
He clearly hadn't noticed us because he has been saying something between the lines of " okay so 69 or doggy style?"
To that sentence me and Kyle both stare profusely at Dave and his vulgar vocabulary.
         Dave then looks over at us and takes in our position. Already having a smile cracking at his face as he burst out laughing. Kyle then takes his hands off of me sucking his teeth and muttering nasty things under his breath. I follow behind him and turn him so that he is facing me.
"What was that all about?"
"Sorry, it just wasn't suppose to go like that."
Right after that he walked away.

      After that incident i run over to Carter who is sitting alone at a couch watching people dance as she has a bowl of nachos in her hand. I tell her all about the incident including how he rudely stormed off saying it wasn't supposed to go that way and how confused i was at the moment.
     Carter ended up telling me to calm down and to go talk to him again. I then started to question why i even mentioned this stupid party to anyone and should've stayed home.
So i started a mission looking all over the house. Asking all of his friends where he could be who responded with something unnecessary due to the fact that they were all drunk.
So i grab Carter as we go look some more and i finally find him pacing back in forth in the front lawn which was now empty and muttering things under his breath again.
Carter sees then leaves knowing we would like some alone time as i go up to Kyle. I asked him whats up and he looked over at me dumbfounded that i actually came to look for him. And before i know it, my lips are moving in sync with him, until i come to realization.

Im kissing my best friend.

Kyle pulls away after a moment and recites the most beautiful speech i've ever heard.

"Esmay, since the first moment i heard your name i thought of it as the weirdest name on the planet. I've called you names like "whore, slut," when i didn't even know who you were. But i was lucky enough for you to forgive me. We've been through almost everything and you literally give me better advice than anybody else could ever give me. You always cared who i was with, and where i was or if i was even hurt. So i have concluded that i love you. I love you more than myself. And you would make me the happiest man alive if you just answer one simple question."

My face was drained in tears and i was really anxious to know this question so i nodded as in a Que. to go on.

"Will you marry me?"

Words could not describe the shock on my face or the feelings i was facing. I did have a crush on this guy since forever and i did love him. Even when i told him that i didn't mean it in a friendly way.

I nodded not trusting my voice and i pulled him over to a kiss. He pulled away again smiling, his eyes glossy.
" Sorry this wasn't the setting you may would've admire but i really needed to get this off my chest.
We both chuckled as he picked me off my feet. Instead of telling anyone we were leaving, we just decided to enjoy and walk the hour back to my house.

THE END
