The unexpected

Chapter 12

LAUREN
It's 15:30, and I'm done with school today. I call a taxi, and it takes me to the dorm. I make my way to my room, and when I open the door, everybody's there. Sitting at the same place. Hunter, and Nathan on Charlie's bed. Charlie and Chase are on the sofa, and Blake's on my bed. I put my bag on the side of my bed, and I sit next to Blake.
Nathan starts to talk to me, and Blake.
-By the way where were the both of you yesterday?
Before I have time to answer, he does.
-She was tired, so I took her to the dorm.
Hunter, opens his mouth to say some dumb shit, like always.
-So I heard you fucked Tracy?
And he starts to laugh.
-Yep.
Blake doesn't care. Well, fucking someone is normal. It's a routine.
-She's good, then?
Why the fuck he asks these questions. Charlie's looking at me. She don't even know who's Tracy. I give her a fake smile. We'll talk about it later my love.
-What do you think, Hunter?
Nathan defends Blake.
I smile at Charlie, and she gets up.
-Anyway I want to be with Lauren, so it's time for you to go guys.
Blake don't even say bye to me. She gives some kiss to her boyfriend, and they all leave. She knows that I'll blame her, because she didn't go to her classes when she need it, so she says.
-I know, I'm sorry, but I went to the grocery, and I brought some stuff. We'll eat spaghetti tonight.
I smile at her, it's OK then! I don't really care that she missed her classes, but it's for her. She deserves a good future, and she really need it.
-So.. Blake just took you to the dorm yesterday?
-Yes... He stayed, and we ordered pizza, and we talked, but that's it. He leaved at 21, because I was tired.
-Ok, I understand now. After that, he came to the fraternity to fuck this Tracy, right?
-Yes, it seems to.
She takes plates, and she's doing the dinner.
-Who's this Tracy by the way?
-She's tall, blonde, and always around Blake.
-Well, there's a lot of girls like her, you know...
Thank you, I didn't need to remind it.
-I know... When we'll go to an other fraternity party, I'll show you.
-Oh, by the way, there's a party Thursday.
I look at her like if she was a weirdos.
-Thursday? What the fuck?
-I know, it's weird.
-By chance, I don't have classes friday.
-Lucky you.
She gives me a sarcastic smile, it makes me laugh. At the same time, my phone buzzed.
BLAKE
Always good for tomorrow?
I answer him that it's good.
-Who is this?
-You're being so curious Charlie!
She smiles at me. The dinner's ready, and it's delicious.
-It was Blake.
It's her turn to look at me like if I was a Weirdos.
-What the fuck!
-What..?
-In one year, he never texted me. I didn't even know he had a cellphone.

I feel special, I'm lucky to have him as a friend... I think. I remind Charlie that I'm going to be back later than usually tomorrow.
-Ok, you're going to see your best friend like always, but why "later than usually"?
-I'm going with Blake at the Starbucks after.
She looks shocked, and I find it pretty funny.
-Oh my god... That's just so... Weird!
I take the plates, and I do the dishes.
We both sit on our bed. I put some songs of 'The Weeknd', and we talk like two best friend does.
-Ok, I don't know what's going on between you and Blake, but please, be dressed when I'll come to the room.
I start to laugh, she's unbelievable.
-First of all, I broke up with Jordan yesterday so...
She cuts me.
-Are you sad of it?
-No.
-Well, we just don't care, so don't try to use it as an excuse.
I roll my eyes, and I continued my argument.
-Then, first of all, he's a one night stand type, and I'm not. That's it.
She starts to laugh.
-Wow, you had a lot to say!
-Shut up!
I really like her friendship,I give her the biggest smile. She gets up, and she gives me the biggest hug ever. That's how we end the night, talking about anything and everything.
