Chapter 8
Chapter’s a little short!! But some shit gonna go down so yeahhh..!! enjoy!
“Eeep!” Yes. ‘eeep’. That was the sound I made, as I slipped and fell on my bum outside starbucks on Monday morning; I knew I should’ve worn my military boots. Next time I won’t listen to Keisha, She’d told me to wear my wedge heeled boots, well when I say told, I actually mean forced. The girl’s pretty strong for someone who’s five ft four. I can’t exactly talk seeing as we’re exactly the same height.
“Toni?” I looked up to see the most intense brown eyes staring down at me, I gazed dreamily into them to be disturbed by something waving around near my face. It was a hand, Oh, It was a hand! More importantly it was Matthew’s hand. OhmyfreakingJesusGodandHolySpirit! He probably thinks I’m some retarded little girl who gets kicks from sitting on the ice outside starbucks. I think he knew I was mentally incapable to take his hand at very moment beause he pulled me up as if I weighed nothing but a feather.
“err..hey, I kinda slipped” He looked at me with an odd expression on his face as if he was trying not too laugh, his eyes sparkling in the winter morning sunlight. He was trying not too laugh! The bastard! The really fit bastard, the really fit bastard who was saying something. Whoops!
“..you wanna go in?” He asked me smiling. I nodded, just catching the end of his sentence. I secretly hoped my answer was enough, but it seemed so as he turned and headed into the coffee shop with me following behind like a lovestruck puppy.
We were in there for two hours! Just talking and laughing, I don’t know I just felt so comfortable around him. He asked me about my family and I told him about mum and dad and how if she heard I was here with him she’d probably take me too church for deliverance. He said he was religious too, mainly ‘cause of his parents. Apparently he couldn’t get his head round Christianity, He did believe that there was a God but he didn’t really understand the religion and to be honest I really couldn’t care less about that, He was just so amazing and we got on well together. I asked him if he went too school and found out he had just started Uni. I was at my second year of college and I’d be off too University next year so that’s alright. We talked for a few more minutes but then he had too leave cuz his nan was in town and he wanted to see her before she left.
I was in a trance-like state as I walked over to Keisha’s from the bus stop. I just had my first date ever! And it was like totally amazing! Only one thing could ruin my mood and that thing was Five seven, blonde and acted like she was the fucking queen. Cassandra! The stupid bitch, what was she doing near Keisha’s? I stopped walking to and hid behind a bin to listen to their conversation.
“..Some guy just moved across the street from me, He is soooo fit!” I heard Cassandra gush eurghh! Doesn’t the girl have any self respect? “I bought a pack of cookies from the shop, chucked’em in the oven for a bit then went over to his and said I made them.”
“Hahaha! Nice one Cassie!” One of her minions laughed
“He is lush though! His name’s Matthew, Just gone into Uni. He’s all clever and he’s got that dark and mysterious thing going for him” Dark and mysterious? What was she on about? Matthew couldn’t be dark OR mysterious if he tried! In my confusion I had kicked the bin a little too hard and I was in plain sight now for all to see. 'All' being Cassandra and the 3 airheads that followed her around.
“Hanging round the bins again are we?” She drawled towering over me in her spiky Louboutins. “I know there’s like noooo food in Africa but you’re in England, surely the Salvation army can spare a few slices of bread” With that she laughed and turned around to ding, dingo and dingot and they laughed too. God! I hated that racist bitch!
I simply smiled at her and got my phone out of my pocket, dialling Matthew’s number; I lifted it to my ears, he picked up almost immediately. Great.
“Oh hey Matthew! Yes, I had a great time too! Ahaha We should do it again sometime… You wanna show me round your university? Oh sure, Wednesday will be ok. Right, Ok byee!” I looked up to see a very pissed off Cassandra glaring at me. “And that’s how you diss someone. Skank” I reached up onto my tiptoes and whispered into her ear, turning around rapidly and walking off. She would not be above throwing that bin at me, if she could pick it up with her perfectly manicured hands that have never seen a days work.
Sooooo….what do you think of cassie? Did she deserve it? Was Toni being petty?!?!? Please vote and comment!! I know I said thirty votes till I upload but I just wanted to for you guys :))
