When we arrived at the party it was aleready dark , and when Tessa heard me complaining she asked me if I've ever been to a party before and dragged me onto the dance floor.
I was actually having a lot of fun , dancing and laughing with Tessa and Izzy at the drunk boys that were unlucky enough to be the first ones to pass out.
" - Hey Em!" Tessa yelled so I could hear her. The music was incredibly loud. "Me and Izzy are going to get something to drink. Do you want something?"
" - No , I'm good." I said and turned around to dance with a brunette boy who was probably drunk. He moved very wierdly and he started to move his hands on my thighs and tried to lift my dress , but sudently he was on the floor and Aaron was shaking his hand in pain.
" - Are you ok?" He looked at me worried. How could he do this?! Pretend to care and then leave me for Sofi.
" - Don't pretend to care. I could've managed him by my self , thank you very much." I said sarcastically and gave him a cold look. He opened his mouth like in saying something , but Sofi appeared from the crowd and said something to him that made his face tighten. Then she kissed him right there , in front of me. They didn't look like they were stopping anytime soon so I walked away from the dance floor to the sidelines. I watched how their kiss got wilder until Sofi took his hand and led him up some stairs. Great. I felt the tears starting to sting my eyes and I blinked them away right when Tessa and Izzy came back holding red plastic cups.
" - Are you ok? "Tessa asked me ."I saw them too." And she looked at the transparent liquid in her cup.
" - Yeah , I'm fine. Can we go now? I don't feel like partying anymore." I said holding my breath.
" - Sure , let's go." Said Izzy drinking what was left in her cup and we got in the car.On Sunday I spent time with my family. We went shopping , saw a movie and I've even met Cara's new boyfriend , Alex. Apparently they've been dating for two weeks now and they seemed very happy. He was nice , tall , red haired and really funny. I've talked to Tessa and Izzy as well , and decided we meet in the parking lot and walk togheter to class. I was really tired , so I went to bed pretty early and fell into a deep sleep.
" - Hy girls. How was your weekend?" I asked them as I was getting out of the car.
" - Hey Em , we have something to tell you." Tessa looked pissed and so was Izzy.
" - What happened?"
" - You know last night , at the party , how Sofi and Aaron were kissing?" Said Izzy quickly.
" - Yeah , so?" I was confused.
" - Hannah , a cheerleader I get along with - Will's sister - said that she heard Sofi bragging to the other cheerleaders that she and Aaron had sex last night , at the party." Tessa said looking at me worried.
" - What? But they're togheter for like , what , two days? Are you sure?" I was shocked.
" - Yeah I'm sure! Hannah never lied to me. And trust me when I say that this isn't the first time Sofi has done something like this." Said Tessa searching my face.
" - She's a slut." Said Izzy with a blank face.
I felt the tears getting ready to fall so I ran for the bathroom. I sat there and sobbed until I calmed down then washed my face and looked at myself. My eyes were swollen from crying but otherwise I was good. A few more minutes and I was good to go. I heard the door opening and someone who was laughing entered the bathroom sided by two blonde girls in cheerleader uniforms. Sofi.
" - Oh , look what we got here." She said grinning at me. " The poor girl is brokenhearted." She gave me an amused look and mocked a crying baby. " Girls!" She turned her head twoards the blondes. "Go watch the door. Make sure no one comes in. Me and Emma have issues we need to solve." Then the girls smiled and walked out the door , their heels making a noise that sounded like drums in the quiet bathroom. "Emma , Emma , Emma." She said walking back and forth in front of me , pretending to be thinking about what to say next. "You really thought he liked you? Ha , you're so naive!" She laughed. "All I had to do for him to forget you was to make him some 'favours' if you know what I mean." And she looked at me innocently while a chuckle was working his way through her throat. "You know , he actually refused me the first time I asked him out."
" - What are you talking about?" I felt the anger in my voice growing bigger inside of me.
" - Yeah." She shook her soulders and checking her nails. She looked up at me. " Of course , after I told him that you weren't interested and you were just playing him , I didn't have to ask him the second time." She smiled and frowned at me. "Did you really think I'd sit and watch you become his girlfriend?"
" - Why do you care?!" I couldn't catch her reasons. "It makes absolutelly no sense."
" - It makes perfect sense actually. You see , I was the most popular girl in this school ; the only thing I needed to become the queen was an equally popular king. Aaron and I were about to get togheter and all would've been perfectly fine. But , you showed up and thought you can steal my crown. That's why I befriended you , I gained your trust so I could work you more easily. Ugh. And it worked more efficiently than I would've thought." She said it so detached , like she was used to doing this.
" - You're unbelievable! I can't conceive that you did all of this just so you'd be liked and accepted. Guess what? I don't want your stupid crown and I never did. So all this time you were playing Aaron? You don't like him even a little?" I was disgusted and couldn't even look at her when I heard what she said next.
" - Well , I guess he's kinda hot." She said and winked at me. "But wait until he gets you in bed." And she rolled her eyes and chuckled.
" - I can't believe I thought you were nice. Stay away from me , bitch." I said and left the bathroom as quickly as I could. Not quickly enough apparently because I could hear her laughing with the two blondes behind me.
Ten minutes later I managed to calm down and I was at my locker getting the books for my next class , when Aaron popped next to me. Great.
" - Hello , Em. What's with that face?" He looked at me with a sarcastic smile.
" - Aaron. You can thank your girlfriend for this face." I said with a blank face pretending to be busy reading the quote sticked to my locker door.
" - Hey , what do you mean?" He was serious now , turning my head to face him with wis hand.
" - I liked you. I never played with you like Sofi said , I'm really not that kind of girl. Did you know she pretended to be my friend and then she stabbed me in the back , just so that she can be your girlfriend , the queen of the school." I said it quickly , a tear streaming down my face.
" - I...I didn't know." He hit his back on the lockers and looked at the floor with a hurt grin. "I'm so , so sorry." He said straightening and whiping my tear. " I never really liked her , I'm in love with you." And he looked into my eyes , oh , those beautiful black eyes! "Can you forgive me? Can you give me another chance?"
I looked at him , I saw how bad he wanted me to forgive him , to say it's okay , but I couldn't. Because it's not okay.
" - No. You're not in love with me. If you were in love with me you would've come and confront me when she said that I was playing you. But you didn't. You chose to believe her , because deep down you wanted to. So no , I can't forgive you. Bye." And I left him there , looking blankly after me as I walked to my class.*********
