Serena's POV
We just pulled up to the bowling ally and it was packed. Great now I'm gonna have to talk to other people. Well this should be fun.
"We're here!" Wesley cheered.
We walked in and there were so many people that looked around our age it was unbelievable. I guess this was like the hangout place where everyone from Keaon's school goes.
"Let's go get the shoes," Keatons said to me.
"Alright lets go." I gave him a smile.
"HEY GET DREW AND I SOME TO BRO!" Wesley shouted from across the room. Keaton just rolled his eyes and I chuckled a little.
We walked back to where Drew and Wesley were and they were already arguing about who was gonna go first.
"Alright I'm gonna go get some fries I'm starving," I said. I walked over and got in line for the food. After I got my fries I sat down at the bar and just ate them alone. I looked like such a loner sitting by myself. I just wanted to eat some of the fries before all of the guys inhaled them.
"This seat taken?" a girl's voice from behind me said. I turned around and saw a tall blond girl who looked about my age.
"Nope," I said. And went back to eating my fries.
"So you just here alone or are you with someone," she said while chuckling a little.
I laughed. "No, I'm with 3 other guys. I just wanted to eat some of the fries before they all sucked them in."
"I'm Tiffany by the way," she said.
"I'm Serena, nice to meet you," I said while shaking her hand.
Tiffany was actually a really cool girl and we surprisingly had a lot in common. She is also 16 and she lived in Manhattan when she was about 9 and then she moved here because her dad's job got transfered to Huntington. She's an only child, just like me, and she's not into that whole popularity "I'm the hottest girl in school" thing either. Which is honestly a relief. But she was a chatterbox, I could already tell. Which was the opposite of me but I liked her so I guess I could live with it. I love my friends back home but I could never really relate to them because they always cared so much about guys and being the most known, popular person at our school. Have you ever watched Gossip Girl before? You know how Blair always has to have the hottest guys and be at the top of the social food chain? Oh and she will pounce at anyone who gets in her way of something she wants. Yeah, that's basically the definition of my friends back home.
Tiffany and I walked back to where the boys were and by then we basically ate every single french fry. I threw the plate and Keaton. "Bone appetite." I laughed.
Keaton just stared at the plate speechless. "You know I was hungry and I was actually really looking forward to eating those fries," he said while laughing.
"Oh yeah," I started. "This is Tiffany. Tiffany this is Wesley, Drew, and Keaton."
"Wassup," Drew tried to say like he was all swaggerish or something.
"Hi," Keaton said while waving.
"What's goin' on baby." Wesley took off his snapback and flipped his hair.
She blushed a little after Wesley did that. Then Tiffany pulled me over and whispered," YOU KNOW THEM?!"
I looked at her confused. "Umm yeah I just met them why?"
"They were on the X-factor and got fourth place! They are basically famous. Wesley and Drew are like the hottest and coolest guys ever and were so popular at school, even before the X-factor. But Keaton was always so quiet and hidden... he's a sweet kid though. I was in some of his classes for part of last year. You know... before they went on the X-factor."
My jaw was literally dropped. I knew that I have recognized them before! I have never watched the X-factor or even heard of it till a little while ago, but I have seen them on the internet before. "Oh my gosh how could I have not noticed... are they still going to go back to school after summer ends? Well I mean only Keaton because Drew and Wes are graduated from high school."
"I'm pretty sure he might but I'm not sure," she mumbled. "Go ask him!" she shoved me onto Keaton's lap and I immediately got up and my face was burning.
"Uhh.. umm sorry," I muttered. I could here Tiffany chuckling from behind me. I turned around and gave her the look and she immediately shut up. I went over and smacked Drew on the arm.
"OW!" he shouted. Everyone burst out laughing.
"Feisty... I like it." he winked at me.
I swear I have never blushed so much in my life. They all cracked up and fell on the floor dying of laughter.
"Okay seriously though why did you slap me?" Drew asked while whipping off the tears from laughing so hard.
"Why didn't you guys tell me that you got fourth place on the freaking X-factor!" I yelled.
Keaton, Wesley, and Drew just all looked at each other and laughed. I looked at Tiffany and mouthed "Why are they laughing?" she just shrugged her shoulders.
"Sooo... why didn't you tell me??"
"Well everyone that we have met so far has only ever liked us because we were on the X-factor and met Demi Lovato and Simon Cowell and a bunch of other famous people, and well I met you and when you didn't recognize me. To be honest, I was kinda relieved. You liked me, well us, not because we were on the X-factor, you liked us for who we are and I haven't met someone like you for a while so it was kinda nice... does that make any sense?" he said.
Okay that was by far the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me. "Awww," I started. "That totally makes sense. I just met you guys and I already love you."
"Group hug!" Tiffany cheered and we all came in and hugged each other as tight as we could.
*Back at my house*
"Bye guys thanks!" Tiffany shouted as we got out of the car.
"Nice meeting you ladies." Wesley winked. "Oh wait! We need to get your numbers... you know for emergencies."
Tiffany and I giggled a little. "Yeah sure," she said. After we exchanged numbers we headed inside and waved bye to them.
"Bye," Keaton said shyly. He was so cute.
They drove away and Tiffany and I walked inside and I gave her a tour of my house.
"And finally my room."
"Woah Serena your room is so sick." She was so amazed I could tell. "Who am I kidding your whole house is so cool."
"You know what's weird? They live right next door." I said fastly. I knew she would freak out any second now.
Her eyes were wide open and a huge clown smile came across her face. "Your not screwing with me are you."
"Not at all." I said.
"They are so fucking hot. I swear when we were doing the group huge Wesley grabbed my butt. I'm not hallucinating I swear to god he did." She said that so seriously it was kinda funny.
"Well it seemed like he liked you too. Hey one question... can I call you Tiff?" I asked her.
She smiled. "Of coarse. I'm calling you S. And I'm also starving so lets go eat your whole kitchen."
"I see a beautiful friendship ahead of us." I tackled her to the floor laughing.
