Jonathan was sitting at the table he had a huge grin on his face and was looking deep into the eyes of a petite red head. She was sitting on his lap her arms wrapped around his neck They were talking and I crept closer, which was easy because half the school was their.
"You should get going, shes going to be here any minute." I heard Jonathan tell the tramp in his lap.
"Aww but baby I don't want to go!" She said in a child like voice and made a pouting face.
"You have to."
"When are you going to tell her about us?"
"I'm not."
"And why not!" She said her high voice getting higher.
"Cause I don't want to lose her."
"Why not when you have me!?"
"Cause she has something you cant give me...something Ive been working at getting for six months." The girl looked as confused as I was. What did I have? I wasn't rich...so it wasn't money he wanted. I wasn't popular...so it wasn't status. I focused back on the conversation.
"Her virginity." He said and rolled his eyes as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. Anger, outrage, betrayal, hurt and pain shot through my body.
"Fine." The girl said and stood up in a huff. She began walking towards me and I wanted to run and hide but I was frozen to the spot. She looked up and saw me and a huge smile spread across her face. She looked from me to Jonathan, who still hadn't noticed me and broke out laughing. Jonathan snapped his head to me and saw me standing their, tears streaming down my face.
"Cody!" He called as I spun on my heel and ran towards the door. My vision was blurred because of the tears and just as I swung the door open and ran straight into someone. We both fell to the ground. I wiped the tears from my eyes to see I was laying on the ground face to face with...Missy. I sat up and she propped herself up on her elbows.
"Fancy running into you here." She said and laughed at her pun until she took a better look at me and saw the tears streaming down my face.
"Cody? Whats wrong?" She asked as concern clouded her face. I shook my head, as I was unable to talk. I felt two strong arms wrap around my waist and heave me up off of the ground.
"Cody, let me explain-"
"Please don't explain anything to me. I don't want to hear shit out of your mouth!" I screeched and spit in his face. My body began shaking with anger and the the little red head was standing behind Jonathan laughing at the scene before her. I snapped and lunged at her. A look of fear crossed her face and she stepped back quickly. I was only inches from her when I felt arms wrap around my waist and pull me back.
"Let me go!" I shouted as I struggled with the person holding me.
"Shh, Its ok Cody." I heard someone whisper in my ear. Missy. I almost immediately felt calmer. I collapsed onto the ground and let the tears out silently sobbing. Missy put her arm around my shoulder and stroked my hair as I cried on her shoulder. I know you all probably think I'm over reacting but I'm always the quiet one...always the calm one. I bottle my emotions and push them down. Jonathan was my first boyfriend, my first love. And I just found out he was using me because he wanted to take my virginity. It was devastating. I cried for a few minutes more when I heard Jonathan was still there.
"Cody-" I was about to cut him off but Missy beat me to it.
"Are you fucking deaf? She doesn't want to hear it. Leave her alone!" She yelled at him and I heard the anger in her voice. I let her pull me up from the floor and she had her arm over my shoulder as she guided me to the door. Someone grabbed my arm and ripped me from her grasp, I turned and glared at Jonathan. Before I knew what was happening he was lying on the floor blood leaking from his nose. He was out cold. I looked over at Missy, she was bent over holding her hand to her hand to her stomach hopping around muttering "Shit, damn, ouch!" Over and over again I couldn't help but laugh. She looked up at me with a triumphant grin on her face and then she laughed to. Jonathan was still out cold and the little red head was crying and kneeling next to him tapping his face, "Stay with me baby." She kept saying. I rolled my eyes... what a damn drama queen...he wasn't dieing for god sake. I went to the small restaurant and grabbed a bag of ice and brought it back to Missy, her hand was already swelling and bruising I felt so bad. As if sensing this she gave me a reassuring smile as we walked out of the ally.
"I'm alright. Really, and its not your fault." She said and glanced at me sideways.
"I'm sorry you had to do that."
"I didn't have to. I wanted to." She said with a big goofy grin and we started laughing all over again. She walked me over to my car.
"So, uh thanks again. And I guess ill see you at school." I said to her and she smiled warmly before pulling me into a hug.
"Your welcome and yes. Oh and call me or text me if you need someone to talk to."
"Ok." I said and smiled widely before getting in my Mitsubishi Gallant and driving off towards home. Even after all that had happened I couldn't help but smile. I walked in the door and heard Casey (pronounced like K.C for anyone who didn't know.) and his friends screaming in the living room. I smiled evilly. They were watching a horror movie. I was standing behind the couch and they had the tv up so loud they didn't hear me standing there stifling my giggles. I have seen this movie about five times so when a scary part was coming I braced myself and through myself over the couch and on top of everyone. They screamed like little girls it was too funny. I was laying across their laps holding my sides because I was laughing so hard when Jordan, Caseys best friend began to tickle me causing me to laugh harder.
"No! NO!...please...Stop!" I gasped out between laughing fits. "CASEY!! HELP!" I nearly screamed and was grateful when Jordan stopped and I rolled off the couch and onto the floor having a hard time breathing.
"So, how was your date with Jonathan?" Jordan asked me in a bored tone. Almost immediately tears welled in my eyes and he looked at me alarmed.
"Cody? Are you ok?" He asked in a gentle tone and I nodded my head before running and locking myself in my bedroom. I slid down the door and onto the floor. I had pushed it back it hadn't been bothering me and big mouth had to bring it back up. I heard a soft knock on my door and stood quickly wiping tears away and taking deep breathes. I opened the door and Jordan was standing there looking worried.
"Are you ok?" He asked me.
"Yea fine." I replied quickly with a halfhearted smile before closing the door. But he put his foot in the way and pushed into the room.
"Cody, Ive known you for what...seven years? I know when something is wrong now tell me." He demanded and I sat on my bed, him following close behind. When he was sitting, I began explaining what happened word for word and even told him what Missy did. And we laughed together at that. He wrapped his arms around my shoulder and hugged me as I cried. When I had composed myself I looked up at him and the anger in his eyes cause me to flinch. He must have noticed because he immediately softened.
"I'm sorry Cody, that just really pisses me off."
"Its ok." I said in a small voice and crawled back over to him and buried my face in his chest. When I woke up I was tucked into my bed still wearing my jeans but my shoes were off. Jordan must have put me to bed. I climbed out, put a set of pajamas on and went back to sleep. Today hadn't been all bad. I lost Jonathan, but I gained two new friends.
