She handed me the blindfold and I put it on. Drunk with power, my best friend directed me to the nearest block and said,
“Make out with Coby.”
In an annoyed and whiny voice, I declared,
“But I don’t know where Coby is Anna.”
“Follow my instructions then.” She reassuringly guided me.
I was dubious about whether I should trust her or not.
“Walk 3 steps forward, turn to your left, move 1 step forward. He’s there. Make out with him.”
I could hear Coby laughing so I was sure it was him. Anna wouldn’t lie to me anyway.
Enticed by the way everyone around me was shouting ‘KISS! KISS! KISS!’ I leant forward, with my hands behind my back, and found Coby’s luscious lips with my nose. Attractively positioning my lips on his, I began to move my tongue over his face until it found its way into Coby’s mouth. Our tongues entwined and I could feel his warm saliva brush against my face. After about a minute, we separated.
I felt as though I was in the real world again. I became aware of the amount of people surrounding us. Aware of Anna laughing so incredibly much and telling me to take my blindfold off. I moved to the side a little where I thought Anna was standing and then ripped it off my face. I was in front of Coby.
I managed to stutter,
“But...how’d...you...”
I turned my head slightly and realised I’d made out with Bailey.
“HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME ANNA. I THOUGHT YOU WERE MY FRIEND.” I yelled before storming off to the other set of toilets across the school.
I locked myself in the first toilet cubicle and texted my bestie Ayesha to meet me there. Even though she was being kind and understanding, I couldn’t stop crying. It felt like I had just wet myself in front of the whole school but making out with your crush in front of the school is more embarrassing in my opinion.
Ayesha stayed with me whilst Sophie went to get Anna and Coby. I’d just been stabbed but wasn’t killed, so I would have to live through the pain. It felt tragic. How could I ever face my classmates again? I knew that whatever Anna and Coby would have to say would be torture.
I sit behind Bailey in English and if that’s not enough, I bet Liam will never shut up about it. My life is over. How will anyone ever be able to take me seriously again?
