"Of course"... 'not'

Alex's P.O.V

We all were waiting by the parking lot for Clara to come back. I swear this girl takes forever for such a little task. I mean I could have gone to another country by now and yet she is still stuck somewhere on her way from her freaking locker. As I was about to tell everyone to go ahead and go look for Clara myself Stella called for everybody's attention.

"Guys Clara just texted me saying she suddenly has some work and needs to go somewhere, so she told us to go ahead and she will join us in sometime" Stella said reading on her phone.

What sudden work does she remember now? I mean what can be more important than her best friend's birthday celebration? This has never happened earlier. Clara is always present on every occasion through out, so why this sudden change? Something did not feel right. But then again others seemed to agree with it like it was pretty normal. Was I thinking too much? Probably being so much with Maria is starting to rub off on me. Yeah everything is fine.

"Common guys, Clara will join us.. can we please leave now? I am really dying for a coffee" Maria said.

"See its her who is a cry baby and not me" I said addressing Ryan to which he simply laughed.

"Alex, darling take whatever you said back right now" Maria said glaring at me.

Ohh god she looked so cute even when angry. Which is one of the main reasons I love to piss her off.

"Nahh sweetheart, not happening" I said teasing her some more and that's how I found myself running for my dear life while she chased me around and Stella and Ryan shaking their heads at us.

Clara's P.O.V

I texted Stella giving some shitty excuse of suddenly remembering some work and so would join them later. Knowing them they would easily believe it. But the truth is I just needed some time to myself. To clear my mind and properly process whatever I saw. To say I was shocked would be an understatement. I wasn't just shocked but I was equally hurt. Now all of you must be thinking what exactly did I see to have such a sudden change of mood right?

Well let me tell you guys from the very beginning. So as you all know I being the silly me forgot my phone in the locker and hence went to get it back. On my way there I saw a couple kissing each other and not just a normal peck but a full on making out session. Normally I would have just gagged at the sight and went ahead but the guy today was my long long time crush and also Ryan's brother Jack. I was suddenly filled with rage and went there to see who the hell was he kissing. All this time I had this silly notion in my mind that maybe just maybe he liked me back as well. But today the reality slapped me hard.

After reaching them I immediately pulled them apart and saw the girl he was kissing. And that was the breaking point. Not only was my long time crush kissing someone else but he was kissing Arie. Can you guys believe it? That bitch Arie.

"Ohh hii Clara, how can I help you?" Arie asked with that ridiculous smirk plastered on her face. If only I could rip it out.

"Aren't you satisfied with ruining Stella's life that you are now making other people your target as well?" I asked with venom in my voice.

"what are you talking about? Its not like Jack is dating anyone, so why does it matter if I kiss him or not?" she asked innocently. Innocent my ass.

"You know what, you are actually right. I'll just leave you guys, continue whatever you were doing" I said dashing out of there. On my way out I heard Jack calling my name but I was in no mood to talk with him at the moment. Is this why he was busy? And could not help us with Stella's birthday party? So much for being a good friend.

To say my mood was ruined would be an understatement. All I wished to do right now was curl up in my bed and watch re-runs of FRIENDS. Suddenly I got a call from someone I did not expect at all.

"Hey girlie, how is my favorite friend doing?" she asked.

"OMG Ema, is that you? I missed you so much. Where have you been? I really need to meet you" I said , all my anger just vanishing.

"Haha I missed you too girlie, and I am here now for Stella's birthday party and DONOT tell her this its a surprise" she screamed.

"OMG meet me right now outside my school, hurry the freaking up" I said as I couldn't hold my excitement any longer.

"Okay be there in five and also I need you to hear this new song I prepared for Stella specially, bye" she said hanging up.

Oh god no. Wait, you guys must be confused as hell as to who on earth is Ema right? Well she is Stella's cousin sister and also a really great friend of ours. She has spent all her vacations here with us and is hence so close. But I'll tell you all that later as there is a huge problem right now. What? Its Ema singing a new song and let me tell you she is a HORRIBLE SINGER. I just hope my ears don't bleed tonight.

As usual she made me wait for half an hour before she arrived. But should I say she got so much hotter than the last time she came here? Oh god, it was safe to say she must be a heart breaker in her school. That lucky girl. I couldn't recognise her immediately. There she stood in her knee length body fitting one piece. Of course it was Black and White. That girl was obsessed with those colours.

Her figure was to die for and her hair had grown alot since the last time. It now came upto her waist. Her tanned legs easily showed off.

"Clara? Is that you? OMG you look soo gorgeous" said screamed.

"Look who's talking, miss I BREAK HEARTS" I said teasing her. She just laughed and called in for a hug which I gladly gave her.

"Are you excited to meet your sister??" I asked.

"of course silly. I missed that idiot the whole year. I can't wait to see her face when she sees me" she laughed. Stella and Ema were really close to each other. They both were practically inseparable during the holidays. Not that we would mind because common Ema was just like us, goofy and crazy.

"You excited to listen to my song?" she asked.

" Of course" I said while 'not' I murmured.
