I woke up to metal hitting my head. My eyes fluttered open and saw an angry Kelly standing in front of me with her hands on her hips.
"How long was I asleep?" I asked no-one in particular.
"Thirty fucking minutes Leigh. Thirty fucking minutes of your mother. Every two minutes she would fucking give me a disapproving look. I couldn't even turn on the radio without her telling me I'm not a good enough driver yet," Kelly yelled at me. A small smile tugged at the corner of my lips.
"Why do you think I made you drive her," I shrugged her off.
"Fuck you," she was still angry. I wonder what snooty remarks mom said to her. I remember the first time she said a crude thing to her about her sexuality. If Kelly didn't stop me, she would have been stuck in hospital for god knows how long.
"I'm guessing she said 'Don't try something on my daughter. She is not your kind' am I right?" I mimicked her voice which made her lighten up.
"I believe she said that the first time she found out I was gay," she laughed along with me. "Today she said and I quote 'get your priorities straight. I mean. Not that you know what the word means' I almost drove of the road when she said that."
I paused at her last sentence. "Is my car in good shape."
"I'm fine thanks bestfriend. My feelings aren't hurt at all by your mother," her voice was sarcastic.
"You will live," I looked around the room and noticed Jane was gaping at us with her mouth open.
"It's rude to stare," I said to her.
"Your mother is a lovely person. How could you say all those things about her," yeah. She was disgusted.
"Holy shit Kelly. I'm gonna be sharing a room with plain Jane. Let's get out of her."I stood up pushing Kelly out of the door.
"You're clearly gonna enjoy your roommate," Kelly laughed. When we got to her room we found that her roommate still wasn't there.
I helped her unpack her shit and we decided to go out for a bit. Just to get an idea on where the party spots are.
We passed a fraternity along the way. It was full and looked like people were already in the party spirit. But we have class tomorrow, so we just drove away.
It was late now so a lot of clubs were getting packed. But they all looked too difficult to get into.
"Let's get some take away. I'm hungry," I told Kelly. She was driving now. She took a right turn and drove into the McDonald's drive thru.
"Welcome to McDonald's can I take your order,'' the voice from the box on the side.
"Can I have a Big Mac, one coke and-" Kelly was interrupted by a loud crash that made the car inch forward.
"Leigh. I didn't do that I promise," Kelly panicked and covered her face with her hands. Well at least she knows how much I love my car to apologize like that for no reason.
"I know. It's some douche behind us," I stepped out of the car with determination to fuck up whoever just bumped into my baby.
I inspected the back of my car but it was too dark to see anything. "What the fuck is wrong with you. Couldn't you fucking see me right in front of you?" I was shouting now and the person in the passenger seat stepped out of the car then the driver followed.
You have got to be kidding me.
"Hello foxy lady. How are ya mon l'ange," he smirked at me.
"Stop fucking calling me that," I warned. "You are gonna fucking pay for the damages. I don't care what you do, but by the end of tomorrow, whatever damages are there are gonna be fixed."
