I just spent the whole 40minutes of lunch trying to tell Aiden everything Ashley likes, everything she look's for in a guy. But why was it for some reason i was so....Jealous? No not jealous i can't be i barely know the guy i don't like him or anything so why would i care?Why do i care?
It is only the start of the year and i am ready for school to be over with. I need a holiday, year 12 is nothing like year 11, there is so much more pressure even MORE test and last year we had 5 test in ONE DAY! It is hard, but i stay up to date on my homework get ahead with work in class, study all day everyday so i do alright.
Today went pretty fast and i was thankful it was over. As i stand on the step outside of school waiting for my late as always school bus someone hit's into the side of me, making me fall flat on my face.
"Oww! Watch where your go-" I quickly stop talking when i realise who it was "Oh Aiden, Hey!"
"Oh my gosh i am so sorry, did i hurt you? I was just walking and then someone pushed me and i fell and hit you i am so sorry i did not mean to!" He say's while giving me his hand and helping me off the ground. "No, no it's all good, nothing's broken" i say blowing it off, "who pushed you?" i ask, "I think it was David but i didn't get a very good look so i'm not 100 percent sure if it was him." "Are you okay?" i say with hurt in my voice, i feel so bad for him, they have no reason to be so rude to him.
He opens his mouth as if he is going to say something and then closes it again slowly like he just gave up on what he was going to say, then i realised that's when the bus pulled up, so i said my goodbye and walked onto the bus. We are always having unexpected meetings when we always just seem to knock into one another.
-------------------------------------------
Friday came around quickly. Thank god! I need a break from school. badly. I finally am finished doing an hour and a half of homework and jump on my bed and decide to catch up on some of my social media, first checking snapchat and then moving onto instagram. I start scrolling through my feed and that's when i get a phone call from Ashley.
Me: "Hey Ash, Whats up?"
Ashley: "Hey girl! Can i ask you a question?"
Me: "Yeah sure! Fire away. BUT...if it has anything to do with you setting me up again i am going to hang up on you quicker than you can blink!"
Ashley: "Okay. Okay i wasn't going to ask that anyways. Although there is this one gu-"
Me: "Okay. Hanging up now goodbye..."
Ashley: "Okay i'm just kidding. Now let me get to the actual question, You know how it was my birthday yesterday?"
Me: "Yes Ash, how could i forget....You texted me at the start and end of every period saying "Did you know it's my birthday today" and "Im officially 18 today, did you know that?"
Ashley: "Okay, beside the point. So i'm having a party this saturday"
Me: "So tomorrow?"
Ashley: "Yes!"
Me: "Thanks for the late notice..."
Ashley: "Anyways I have invited the whole year 12 level and you being my best friend, i will be seeing you there. I mean your coming!"
Me: "So really It isn't a question it's a demand?"
Ashley: "Well yes, so i'll see you tomorrow night 6:00. DONT BE LATE!"
Me: "Okay i wont be, bye."
With that i hang up and silence is filled. I wonder if Aiden will be there....Will he? I mean not that i care. Do i?...Nah.
What should i wear tomorrow night? I get up in search of what to wear tomorrow night, not being able to find anything at all. I need something new. I never go to parties so i don't have a lot of dressy clothes. At all.
"Mum!?" I yell whilst making my way down to her study, "Can you please drive me to the shops so i can get a new outfit for Ashley's party tomorrow night?" I say with puppy dog eyes.
"Yeah sure. Just give me 10minutes to get ready" she explains. "Why? you are only dropping me off, Not like your coming...?" I say in curiosity. "Yes i am. We both know you are going to need help to find a new outfit for a party. Plus, no offence but your fashion sense is uhh well..." she says with a scrunched up face. "Okay, okay stop i get it. you can come, let's go!"
--------------------------------------
We finally arrive at the shops and we first stop at a cafe to start this possibly long as time of shopping, that i really dislike doing. Lets just get it over and done with.
"Cotton on mum, really?" "Yes cotton on, you need a new look and this is the place to get it!" she says excitedly. "Fineeee" i grunt.
half an hour later and we are still in cotton on trying on all different outfits.
"No!" mum says. "But i like it. I look good!" i say happily.
This has been going on for the whole half an hour of being here. Yes. no. yes. no.
Finally after what feels like forever we agree on something. It is different for me but i like it. Its a nice yellow blouse with a plain white top underneath matched with some glitter shorts and nude high heels that aren't to tall but still give me a bit of height.
"I have a nice pink clutch purse that will go perfect with that outfit!" mum says.
Finally we were out of that place. Time to go home and sleep. Oh how i am excited for sleep.
