So here I am, all curled up in bed at about 2am, and let me tell you, my birthday surprise today didn't exactly go 'as planned' per say.
Jake told me to meet him at Pizza Express, my favourite restaurant in the whole world, and when I got there, not sounding like a spoilt brat or anything but can I say it was not what I was expecting. The cute little village-like restaurant that I'd always adored since I was young girl, he had transformed it into a night club. A NIGHT CLUB. Now seeing a girl like me at a place like that, was a definite unlikely sight. But I could see how much work Jake had put into this and how he looked at me with pleading eyes and that big wide smile that simply made me melt every time I saw it, "so how do you like your birthday surprise babe?" I was left speechless, I simply looked at him and opened my mouth but words weren't coming out. To be quite honest with you I was terrified. I'm not a 'clubbing' type of person you see. I looked up to see Jake still looking at me, waiting for a reply. He tugged on to my hand and asked again, "I loved what you did with the place hun!" I lied, biting my lip. "It needed a change didn't it?"
"I was scared you didn't like it," he said looking worried, "anyway never mind! Let me introduce you to everyone" he explained while rushing me into some old friends of his from school. This went on for about 2 hours, just waving and smiling at every Tom, Dick and Harry Jake introduced me to. It was awfully boring, but I knew I couldn't say anything or else I'd hurt Jake's feelings.
"I'm just nipping off to the loo, be back soon Jake!" I shouted, barely even able to hear myself over the banging of the loud dance music.
"Okay but hurry up Alesha!!" He replied while greeting more people through the door.
When I got to the toilets I ran into some girls who were fixing their make up and adjusting their tight skimpy dresses. When I walked in they looked at me in disgust and exchanged looks as if to say "what is she even doing here". I simply smiled at went into the free cubicle, ignoring their silent but rude gestures towards me. While sitting there I could overhear their conversation, "II really want to try and hit it off with Alex tonight" I heard one of them say.
"Oh you've already got him in the bag!" One of them said.
"Yeah I mean did you see the way he stared at your boobs?" I heard a third voice. What sluts, I said to myself whilst finishing up, I quickly checked my hair and make up and washed my hands, i wanted to get out of there as soon as possible before they could say anything else about me, plus girls like them just annoy me too much.
When I came down stairs I couldn't see a thing as it was pitch black with just a few dim colourful lights shining through. After my eyes adjusted I could just about make out everyone's faces, some familiar ones who I'd probably met before and others who I'd never seen in my entire life. I looked around and pushed my way through to where I left Jake, however when I got back it wasn't just Jake who i found, some girl had obviously taken advantage of Jake and his cute and polite charm and had got the better of him. But then when they turned around I found her with her arms and legs wrapped around him, in her tiny crop top and bum shorts, revealing things that nobody wants to see. And Jake? I could see how much he was trying to get rid of her, by holding on to her, kissing her neck and letting her grind on to him, forgetting the fact that he has a girlfriend? Me? The one he organised this whole dumb party for?? I could feel my face burning up and my eyes filling up with tears. I stood there like a wally and started crying my eyes out. When I had finally realised that I should probably leave I turned around and tried to find my way through the crowd. I could hear Jake, now realising what he had done and I could hear him shouting my name and saying innocent things like "it's not what it looks like", like I haven't fallen for that line one too many times! I started running because I could see him catching up to me, then suddenly I ran into him. Him. His perfect brown curls. His cute button nose. His warm touch. His smell. His eyes. I took in each and every one of his features, I was completely drawn back. Who was he? Why did I feel so warm and secure in his touch?
