This isn't just any other story about a girl and a guy it's about me and two guys! I never knew it come down to this choosing one over the other but, I am not start here. Let me start from the beginning, how this all started.
***************************
Today was January 1 only eleven more days until my birthday. It was only 1:00 A.M. and I was showering when my phone rings. It was Eric. Him and Juan were my closest friends here in Georgia. Well my first friends here and truly my only friends who even hang with me on a daily basis. They helped me when my parents divorced and my mom left me with my dad and took all my sisters and brother with her.
"Hey" I said looking at the caller ID. "Hey, how is your New Years?" asked Eric. "Um...I could be better if I could shower in peace" I said rolling my eyes and turning the shower off. "Oh, I'm sorry" Eric says. "Its ok, I'm getting out anyways" I say wrapping the towel around me and walking to my room. "Are you sure? Cause I can hang up and call in you back in a few minutes" He says. "Yeah I'm sure," I say, I look at my cell and notice Juan is calling "Hold on real quick I'm getting another call" "Mmkay" say Eric.
"Hey Juan" I say changing into my pajama's. "Hey what's up Maria?" Juan says in his Spanish accent. "Talking to Eric on the other line and getting dressed" I said. "Oh, put us on 3-way" he said. "Yeah, I will, when I have the money to pay the bill for it" I said rolling my eyes and laughing. "You know what, fine be that way I aint gonna talk to you" Juan says. "Ok, well I had a little thing I wanted to tell you" I said. "Oh, what is it?" Juan asked. "I'll tell you tomorrow and I gotta go, I need to talk with Eric!" I tell Juan. "Ok, Bye" he says "Bye" I hang up and swap lines.
"Hey" I say jumping on my bed. "About time, what did you two talk about?" Eric asked. "Oh, nothing." I say smiling. "Well, I'm gonna go over since I'm all alone on New Years" he said. "Ok, but I may fall asleep plus my dad just left to drink with his friends and wont be back until tomorrow." I say. "Ok, I'm on my way" he says. "Well the door is unlocked, just make sure you lock the door behind you." I tell him. "Ok, I wont forget, I'll call when I am at your door" he said. "Ok, see you" "'Kay bye"
After I hung up, I went downstairs and got my soda and made us some popcorn. Soon, about a couple minutes later Eric arrives.
"Hey Eric" I said giving him a hug. I didn't know what he wanted to do, but either way he brought pizza. "So what did you want to do?" I ask him. "Well, I don't know I just thought you might wanted company" he says keeping his arm wrapped around me while we go upstairs to my room. I was thinking about my little plan that I wanted to do with Eric and Juan.
"What you thinking about?" Eric asks. We both lay down in my bed. He holds me the same way he had when I cried the night my mom left me. He was warm and I laid my head on his chest. "I was thinking about something I wanted to try with you and Juan" I said.
"What did you want to try?" he asked. "Well, I wouldn't tell Juan so what would make me want to tell you?" I asked him drinking my root beer. "'Cause I'm more amazing" he said. "Sure you are" I said rolling my eyes. I started falling asleep and didn't understand a word Eric was saying.
***************************
I was running. I don't know where I was running to or from. Its weird how dreams make things seem so real. I wanted to stop but I couldn't it was like I was running for my life but, only my body knew it before I did.
***************************
I woke up all hot. I try and move but Eric is holding me and he is asleep. I quietly without trying to wake him I take his arms off me. Eric was strong although he aint got a pack or biceps or anything. He is strong enough to carry me. I look at my phone and notice I had a missed call and 2 text messages. It was only 11 a.m. Wow, I slept in I thought to myself especially since I only sleep for 7 hours. I get out my room still quietly and went downstairs.
My dad still hadn't came home yet so, I knew I had to call him later and ask him when he coming home. I get the pizza out the fridge and eat it. Everyone tells me I'm weird just because I eat pizza cold but, hey that's the way I eat it.
Suddenly I start to hear the song We R Who We R by Ke$ha go off on my phone. I run up the stairs to get it before Eric awoke but, by the time I got up there he is awake and answers my phone. I get on the bed to get it away from him.
"Hello?" he says into the phone. "Eric give me my phone" I say trying to take it from his hands. All he does is shake his head. "Who is this? And who do you want?" he asks. I try and listen but I cant hear anything. "Mmmhmm... Taylar, well Maria isn't in and is tackling me" He says. "Your so stupid!" I tell him. "How?" he replies back to me. "If you tell someone that I aint in but I am doing something right in front of you that makes no sense" I say smacking his head and grabbing my phone. "Hey Tay, sorry about that" I tell Taylar. Taylar has been my friend for years. Me and her are born the same day and we call ourselves twins especially since we act like a set. She has always talked with me but she lives in my hometown and so we cant see or talk a lot with each other.
"Its ok, anyways who was that?" She asks. "Why?" I ask her. "So I know whose ding-a-ling will be cut off" she tells me laughing. "No! You cant do that to him!" I say. "Wait, what's she gonna do to me?" Eric says confused and seemed scared. "She said she's gonna cut your thing off" I said. "WHAT?!?! NOOO!!!!" He yells running to hide in my closet and starts mumbling things to himself. "Haha, anyways did you get my texts? And why didn't you answer your phone when I called earlier?" She asks me. "Oh, I was asleep and I haven't read them so tell me please." "Ok, I'm moving!" She tells me. "Oh, where?" I ask upset because then I don't get to see her when I go see my mom , if I ever go see my mom. "In Georgia! Where you live!" She tells me. So yes, I hate being a girly girl but neither of us is. We couldn't both help screaming in excitement that Taylar was gonna come and live over here with me.
"What's wrong?" Eric asks jumping out the closet and running over to me to see if I was ok. "Taylar is gonna move here!" I say all happy. "The crazy girl who is gonna hurt me and your happy she's gonna come?" He says. "Well, yes she is my twin, we do everything together. But don't tempt her or anything, she will hurt you" I tell him. "Well, I call you when I get there. My mom is having us fly in a plane today." she tells me. "Ok, I cant wait to see you," I say happy. "Love ya sis" "Love ya too, Tay bye" I tell her hanging up.
