The Unexplainable Bond

chapter 2

I woke up to the blinding sun piercing my eyes like needles, a pounding head like that felt as if my head was having its own heavy rock concert. Consciousness was finally upon me,the light did harm of great measures, like it felt as if I was dying and saw the ‘light at the end of the tunnel’ that most people talk about. Waking up with lack of clothes, as well as a limited memory made me want to curse myself out for even going out late with the girls and this was due to one prime factor. Him. I didn’t go out without him, I’ve never even stayed out late in my 21 years of living without having him there making sure I got home safe.

My body was fully hurting but this wasn’t what got my attention, no my body aching wasn’t definitely what got my attention, nope. It was the fact that I found myself in bed with Althea’s big head crushing my damn arm. Like did this girl head get filled with potatoes sack last night or something.

“Althea get up I need to use the bathroom” I said. Trying to wake up this girl was a mission like seriously, I’ve been slapping her head, pulling her ear and all yet all I got in response was “hmmm” like this girl definitely got testing my bladder.

“Althea your boyfriend is in the house naked get up” I said. I mean a girl got to do what a girl got to do, plus I really needed the toilet.

“Shut up you is hurting my brain” she said. Finally she moved allowing me to bolt to the toilet and handle my business. After 3 hours of all of us feeling more sober and alive, we headed to the café down the street for breakfast since none of us wanted to make breakfast.

“Can someone please tell me what happened last night because my body is aching like crazy” I said. As you probably guessed it, I’m no good with my liquor so yes the same questions you’re asking yourself I’m asking myself as well and that is ‘why in the name of the holy virgin did I even drink in the first place’ like damn now I know what my best friend meant by saying i sometimes act as if i have a death wish.

“You and that guy were eye raping each other from across the table that’s what happened you basic bish” Ria said laughing her head off. I mean me, eye raping. Never.

“You’re lying, I wouldn’t do such thing. I hope not, please tell me you’re joking” I said. Like for serious guys, yes I know that doesn’t make sense but for serious did I make a fool out of myself in a big restaurant. “no joke, but he was cute, and he bought you a drink but you kind of rejected him by not even drinking the drink he sent you” althea said whilst nursing on her hot chocolate that she demanded the waitress to heat up like 10 times just so it can be hot as she likes it. “Thank God I still had some dignity whilst being drunk” I said. I mean imagine me drinking the drink and just throwing myself at him. No, No thanks I’m alright definitely not after him.

After our breakfast I and the girls went round for a short walk since we all wanted to get familiar with the area since we were going to be living here for 3 years so we thought why not. When I say London is full of funny people I mean it, whilst waiting for our train in Victoria station this guy casually came up to Althea and just proposed to her from out of the blue, when I say I’ve never laughed so hard in my life I mean NEVER. Everyone on the platform happily got their phone out recording waiting for Althea response and all me and Ria were doing was laughing. I mean where they do that at? Oh yes I know in Victoria station. Sadly she didn’t respond because she prestigiously walked into the tube as if nothing weird happened. Oh and did I forget to say she’s decided to not talk to us since we didn’t help her out and we were laughing at her, I mean is it by force for us to pull straight faces and not laugh.

It’s been 3 months since I’ve started university; I’m still very close with the girlies. Me being close with the girls is surprising considering I’m always trying to isolate myself from all the hype and everyone, but them being the beautiful humans that they are they made sure I was involved with technically everything. Like right now I was helping out with Altheas’ end of term fashion show that she has been organizing for what felt like years to me to be honest, like she said, i qoute ‘this means the world to me’ and this statement was simply due to everyone from the fashion world attending the show. Well everyone from the fashion that I had no clue about, so you can just imagine my face when she was all screaming and squealing when noticing some of the so called fashion guru entering the door. The door she’s been staring at for the past damn hour.  

“Althea I’m just going to get a drink and then I’m coming to help out bish” I said since I didn’t want her thinking I ran away. “Alright bish get me coffee as well please” she said fully focusing on the outfit she was fixing for the models.  For those wondering why in the name of Loki Of Asgard we keep calling each other bish, well it’s simply due to Kendrick Lamar and since we hate swearing Bish was just the perfect word for us to use, so yes bish is our thing bish. Walking to get my drink was weird because all I thought was of him, I mean a couple years ago I wouldn’t have thought I would finally be in university without his support and being my cheerleader. I still remember him waking me up just so I can study, still remember it as if it was yesterday.

“Wake up mon amour” he said. That was his thing, calling me his amour simply because he knew how much I loved it, especially how deep his voice went when he was speaking French. “shhh leave me alone I’m tired” I said turning away from him. “I know you are but you have to study remember Mon Cherie amour” he said nibbling on my neck. Every time I woke up he always had my books sorted out on the table since he knew how unmotivated I would make myself if I had to go sort it by myself. “You snore when you sleep you know that” he said staring at me whilst doing my work. “No I don’t snore” I said throwing the rubber at him “stop distracting me young man” I said, I mean I hope this boy is joking because if i do I’m about to duct tape my mouth when I’m sleeping. He stared at me smiling and then suddenly replied saying “you do its cute since it unexpected” he said looking at me sideways licking his lip “is it like old man snore or cute girl type of quite snore?” I asked him covering my face with the paper.

Unaware, I bumped into a hard wall, like both of the hot drinks I was drinking done a super man and went flying. “I’m so so sorry I didn’t even see you” I said trying my best to get the drink off his top, although I’m fully aware of my action having no impact on his already messed up top, I mean a girl can still try right so yeah. “ it’s okay I think it my fault I wasn’t look… oh you’re the girl from the restaurant right?” me hearing him ask me this, made me stop what was I was doing and actually pay attention to the guy I was erm cleaning. “Sorry I have to get going but if you can come with me I can try getting you at least a new top” I said clearly trying to ignore his questions. Between you and I this is the 2 things I noticed whilst looking up, he was finer than wine and his eyes are weirdly cute and no I wasn’t going to look up again.

Rather than him pushing on the question on me being the girl from the restaurant he followed me where Althea was, the first thing the basic bish did when she saw me with him was the look. We all know that ‘you dirty girl where did you find him and how, when, where, why’ type of look, yeah that’s the look she gave. “Althea have you got any guy's top because I accidently bumped into...” and before I could even finish my sentence he cut in “Isaac, and it wasn’t her fault but it would mean a lot if you could get me a top because I need to be somewhere” he said giving Althea a big smile. Like whom did he think he was, if he needed to be somewhere else, why didn’t he take his coffee covered stupid handsome looking self wherever he needed to be like urgh. Althea being the good pet she’s been acting to be for the whole day happily went to get the white top and when she handed it to him she asked the question that was lingering at the end of my tongue. “Are you in the fashion industry?” she asked. I mean he looks like a model with that sexy jawline, i bet that's how his involved in the industry my brain said. “Oh I’m not I’m just here with my girlfriend and my mother, their both into fashion and my mother is here for some new collection thing of hers” he said. Girlfriend was the only word that stuck, no it wasn’t because I liked him or was heartbroken, nope simply because I was happy because there’s was no way I was getting distracted by another man. not after him.

The show finally came to an end, and me along the girls happily deecided on cleaning the room since we didn’t want Althea doing it all for herself, plus she was somewhere waiting for the feedbacks based on her show, this was important to her since it counted toward her grade. Although she was nervous as ever, i knew she was going to pass, i mean even i enjoyed the damn show and i hate fashion shows, that says a lot. Randomly feeling someone behind me, like any other girl, I turned around looking at who it was and it was no one other than whatever the guy name is. “Yes may I help you” I politely asked, I mean since his mother was the fashion whatever I had to be nice since I didn’t want to ruin it for Althea. “Let me take you to dinner” he said. I mean the hell did he think he was like seriously. “No, I don’t think your girlfriend would like that” I said going back to cleaning the floor like I was before. Feeling his hand onto my waist he whispered  “and who said she needs to know” he said giving me a big smile.
