Chasing

#2

I don't get it why people make such a big fuss about high school parties. I mean it only means loud music, weird dances and excessively drunk teenagers who have no control over their teen hormones; all mixed in one room!

We reached Jakes party not more than twenty minutes ago, and trust me those twenty minutes felt like hours since I was real bored. After we reached here, we all grabbed soda, chatted for a while and when the music started blasting through the speakers there was no control over Abs and Ronald's legs. They hit off for the dance leaving me all isolated in a crowded party. Yay with a big jar of sarcasm.

I watch them dance and honestly they are hilarious and cute at the same time. I always loved my two best friends as couple. Even before they were a couple, I mentally always shipped them. Even though they are very very different from each other, its beautiful how they perfectly fit into each other, they understand each other and most importantly they love each other.

Getting bored of watching couples and drunkards dance, I make my way to get some more sodas, and for that I started searching kitchen. Jakes place is kinda big, big enough to get people lost in it. Okhai I'm exaggerating a bit but seriously its huge. Its only two storey house but has more than ten rooms, and when its crowded, ten looks like fifty.

After about few minutes of jostling and making my way getting squeezed between unknown bodies, I find the kitchen. I open the kitchen door only to get myself swooned away by the beauty of the kitchen. It looked so damn nice. "Holy Shit" I muttered under my breathe. Never had I seen such a beautiful, well furnished kitchen. The kitchen looked Royal and extremely expensive. Well what would you expect, Jakes parents were one of the most renowned Chefs of the city. That's what I had heard.

I go inside and grab two cans of soda and just when I'm about to get out, I crash into something hard that makes the cans I was carrying go flying on the floor, and my head get dizzy.

"Are you all right? " A deep husky voice says. " I'm so sorry, I wasn't looking! "

"Yea its Okhai, neither was I "I say as I bend down to pick up the sodas. And when I look up to see the mystery deep husky voiced guy, who I just bumped into, I freeze.

Holy mother of flying unicorns.

"Gerard! " I say. I think I'm about to pass out.What am I supposed to do, when the guy I have been crushing over since forever just bumpes into me. Am I supposed to be happy? shocked?

"Hey... I know you...Your Gina right? Charles party last weekend? " he says as he thinks hard .

"uh.. No.... Ummm..." I say still looking at him with a shocked expression.

"Wait... I know... I remember... Ashley Carter... Sammy's friend. "

Hell he doesn't even remember me. Gina? Ashley Carter? Who the hell are they? I think I better tell him myself before he gives me more names.

"uh... Tessa Johnson... Junior school... Class mates! " I say giving him, You don't remembr-me-at-all look.

" Ohh yea, Tessa, the girl who broke Zens foot by mistakly landing on him... Yea right... How could I have forgotten you. " he says with a smirk.

"Yea... Hi" I say completely ignoring the insulting memory he just reminded me. I'm sure I am already as red as tomato.

"so how's life been? Long time eh? "he asks me.

"Never been better. Yea... Seven years almost! " I say as I try hard to digest the fact that I am actually talking to Gerard Prince, the guy who has been my one and only crush, who I dream about every freaking day.

"And hey still the same, only got slightly thin eh? "he says. Damn does he only remember me as that big fat girl, who looked like a potato. Am I still that fat, Okhai little thinner as he says. Ugh...

" Uh.... Ya... How have.... " I'm interrupted in between by Gerard.

" We will talk some time later ya, gotta go... See ya around fatso" he says completely ignoring what I was saying and in a blink of and an eye, disappears in between the huge crowd of teenagers.

"And you thought that he doesn't even remember you" I hear a familiar girl voice say from my back. I turn around and find Abs giving me a sympathetic look.

" Right! " I say as I sigh and open a can of soda and drink it all in one go.

"What the hell is he doing here anyways? "

"No fregging idea! " I say as I hand her a can of soda.

"Happy? "she asks me.

"Shocked and happy ; honestly mix drink's of feelings! " I say with an upside down smile.

"Your weird you know that right? " she tells me turning her head as to face me.

"not the first time I heard that! "

" I was expecting you to jump up and down out of happiness. I thought you would be screaming out of joy. But your standing here in front of me, acting cool and well.... confused. " she says as if she is surprised.

"Well that's me, just thinking what I should be feeling right now. "

"But one thing for sure, your definitely not fat anymore. At least not like before. "she says as she gives me a side hug.

"You know exactly what to say to me, to make me feel better. I so love ya Abs" I say hugging her back.

"I know you do. "

That's why I love Abs. She knows exactly what to say to make me feel better. And by the way, just to let you guys know, I was really fat, I still am, slightly thinner than before. I still get that "hey you look huge" and " gotta loose your weight fatty" comments but there are few people, who call me healthy looking. And well that keeps me going. And honestly I don't really care about my weight and how I look.

After about few more hours of partying,and time to time getting a glimpse of Gerard I finally come back home, tired. After I reach my room, I dump myself on my bed and in just like few seconds I fall asleep. In deep deep sleep.
