Why Don't You See Me?

Chapter 5- Sister

Okay ppl I did this one out of meire boredom. Haha please let me know how you like it .....please?

************************ 

*Its been three years since my fight with my best friend's sister. I've figured out I didn't recognized her because she had had a major make over and with it an attitude that needed adjusting.  

Hope I don't have a repeat..... * 

--+--------+-+---+--+---- 

"What should I wear Nina!? Is it a casual or semi formal?" 

I'm obvious nervous about seeing her again, after the 'incident', tension grew between us. She was like a little sister to me.

"Just wear something that makes you look hott chika! 'You know who's' gonna be there!?"

"Who?"

"Ug.. Jordan? Your super crush? I swear your in love with that boy!" 

I blush under my long curly hair. I'm sure she can tell.

"I'm not in love with him ....I jus think he's a nice guy..."

"Xela you barely speak to him...how would you know?"

"You would know..." i said this under my breathe out of jealousy.

 She knew everyone from school. She wasn't a slut or anything,  just adored by everyone that look her way. Its not her fault that any boy I ever liked had a fantasies about being with her. I never had a chance.

Its true, I'm jealous of my sister. She's pretty with light skin, curly hair and a great body shape. Unlike me I'm small and as much a curve as a twig. A little small in the chest even though I'm sixteen. This makes me insecure but doesn't effect my outgoing personality.

Worse part was she was great with guys and I'm known as 'Nina's little sister'. How great is that. We're only a year and six months apart!!!

"OMG Xela wear this!!!" She holds up an off the shoulder, loose red shirt. Along with black skinny jeans that's tight on me.

"Ah seriously! You know I'm a T-shirt type of girl!" 

I never was much into dressy clothes. I'd go to a wedding in basketball shorts if I could.

"X you'd look soo hott please?! " She always got me to do things I didn't want to do.

"UG! Fine.." I'll just go with it. What could go wrong.

"Oh I almost forgot! I got a gift for you!!" She was grinning so big this had to be bad. 

"I got you a gift but I'll only give it to you if you promise you'll use it today ..."

"What is it?! "

"Uh uh! Promise?"

"Sure whatever.."  

We always gave each other random gifts just for the fun of it. She hands me a small red box. I'm thinking jewlery. She knew I was a sucker for charm necklaces. I was so excited I ripped the box open. 

"Auh....Oh God! NINA!?!" I pulled out a hot pink laced thong from the box and look at her in disbelief. Why in the world would she give me this?

"I am sooo not-"

"You promised!!" She gives me a sad look. 

"Aaahh but why!?! What would possess you to get me this? "

"I just thought that since your old enough and Mom would never get it, I'd get it for you as a surprise .....SURPRISE!! "

"I'd rather die ..."

Annoyed by my ungratefulness she gives me an evil look. "That can be arranged.... "

"Ug your such a ballsack!!! "  

Giving in is my only option at this point. I had glanced at the box and saw that it was $58, that's a bit much for something that was going in your butt. So I agreed under the circumstances.

We got dressed and head to Nina's little crunchy old red car but when I open the car door she said we were taking Dad's car, which was a 2008 Cadillac. I was happy cause showing up at a party with every popular kid from school in a hoopty would not be the image I'm was going for this year. After seeing my life flash before my eyes everytime she ran a red light we finally make it safely to my friends house. Could I still call her my friend after all these years?

We roll up into the neighbors parking lot which was vacant, so why not? The front yard was packed with shirtless guys coming from everywhere, with all shapes and sizes. It was like a candy store. I didn't mind, it just made me a little self-conscious. 

Lucky for me, Nina found a matching hot pink lace strapless bra and death would've been upon me if I refused. Yay...Nina helps me when it comes to girl stuff but I can't help be insecure around her. We got out of the car when one of the guys recognized us. He announced us as if we were princesses.

"Oh my, look what we have here fellas! The one and only, super hot Chica Niña!" 

Then a mob of shirtless football players came toward us along with some whistling and very intense fist pumping.

"Haha Thank you, thank you-" she flashes her awesome smile for everyone to see. How can she be so confident? I jus give a lip smile, a little unsure of all this attention. I felt like going back to the car because clearly I was invisible. 

I whispered in her ear, "Nina Ima go to the car okay" .

I started to walk away but she pulls me back where we were standing and whispers to me with a smile.  

"You are not bailing on me now after all I've done. Your gonna get noticed if it kills you!!! ...."Oh god this means she gonna embarrass me.

"Hello everyone!! I need your attention!"

Everyone stops what they were doing and gives her their full attention. She really knows how to grab a crowd. I could feel all eyes on us and then she spoke.

"Thank you. I want everyone to check out my very hot sister Xela!!! She's sixteen and ready to party!!"

On that note a huge roar and cheering came. This made my sister want to spin me around, almost like I was her trophy. Did she really think of me that way? The cheering never stopped so we headed inside. I didnt realize how popular she was. The house was not too packed but I was informed that half the people weren't here yet. Thank goodness we came before the big rush. I stayed by my sister unsure of where to go.

Then she says kinda annoyed, "Get off my back grandma." I shot her a dirty look and she said  

"I'm jus kiddin chica. ¡Calmarse! (Calm down) Go play and stop munching after my spotlight."

She walked away with some guys before I could think of a comeback. So I went to the kitchen to grab a drink and explored the house. It had been awhile since I'd been here so I forgot where everything was. I found the bathrooms, in case of emergencies. I saw some stairs so I went up. Right when I reached the top, I heard a guitar playing one of my favorite songs by Justin Nozuka. It was Golden Train.

I had to find out who was playing it. So I started to check the rooms. From each door I opened I learned a little something from the family. There was one room that looked really pretty with lots of color and it looked a little familiar. More than likely Amy's, she's always been like that. Then there was one with a little maturer feeling with a lilac theme. Maybe Diana's, she's really has changed. And I finally reached the room with my favorite song playing . Then there was a beautiful voice singing. Very soft and it flowed with the notes. It was familiar almost like I've heard it before. I knocked so I wouldn't be rude. Then the door opens..

"Hey! It's you again."
