Chapter 2: You need to relax Bre
5:00pm
All day I've been "reading". Trying to "calm myself down". I say it sacastically because I know tonight...it'll happen again. And again. Why screaming? Why can't i have a happy dream. Or atleast scream...happy screams?!
Like screams of joy. Like wipppdeeedo
To be honest, I was trying to relax a bit and decided to take a nice,warm bubble bath before i had to clean up for...Jack. Luckily our apartment had a quality tub, big enough to extend your legs. I started to strip off my pajamas i've been wearing all day, and caught a glance at myself in the wall sized mirror.
I had long dark hair, laying right above my butt. Which may i say was looking fineee due to the yoga Sav got me into. I gave myself a mental note to thank her once again for that. Luckily, i was about 5 foot 7, my legs decently toned. Thank you Sav for getting me into running. My tummy was a little pudgy, but not too noticeable, maybe i should work more on those. My mom being half filipino, I guess i was tanner than the usual female coming out of winter. I looked...kinda great.
I started to see bubbles overflowing the tub, and that was my cue. I hopped in to the luxurious tub, letting the scent of my vanilla bubble bath fill my nose. I let out a nice sigh and let my mind wonder. I thought about my party tomorrow, what we would do, what we would eat.....what we would drink ;). Maybe some classy Sangria or Mike's Lemonade. I like it fruity.
I closed my eyes and somehow i wondered to where all my thoughts end. My past.
What past?
I dont remember a past.
How did I get here?
My eyes shot open as I realized i had gone under the water. I must have been in a trance not to notice. Looking at the clock i decided it was best to get out and dry off. 5:46pm
I dryed off and got into some dark skinny jeans and a grey muscle tee, with a white bandeau bra that showed out of the arm holes, and braided my damp hair into a messy french braid. Apllied a little mascara and concealer, once looking presentable, i set the table and waited for the couple to arrive.
6:55pm
"Bre!! We're home! Ended up buying some subs instead so no pasta. Jack is here!"
"Hey Jack, it's been awhile!" I went in for an awkward hug.
"Nice to see you too Aub." He eyed me up and down before finally looking at me in the eyes. Pervert.
I rolled my eyes.
Sav must of noticed the tension. "Okay! So I picked out a movie that we can watch later annnnddd Jack, honey can you get the drinks?"
Jack nodded and turned for the kitchen.
Sav grabbed my arm and stared me right in the eye. "Aubrey pleeease. We made up! The whole cheating thing was stupid iwith a captial S, and we are finally a happy couple. Please dont make him feel unwelcomed. Do it for me?"
"Atleast you look me in the eyes when your talking to me."
Sav scoffed and said "Maybe I wont be too nice nice when you finally get someone to share your pity life with." and walked out of the room...again.
Although it hurt...a lot, she was right. I had to atleast make it look like I like the guy.
And all i could to was mumble to myseld "Thanks for the yoga."
