I Ate Your Cupcake Because You Stole My Heart

I ATE YOUR CUPCAKE BECAUSE YOU STOLE MY HEART!

"Oh. My. Effin. God!" Those are the words I said that day. I sit in the same hiding spot. I hear the same ocean. I smell the sweet smelling black eyed susans. I feel the golden sand itch through my toes. I taste the salt drying on my tongue from the salt water. I watch my hands mindlessly wax up my surf board. Everything is the same. Everything is in the right place. The only difference is..your not here.

"Savannah? SAVANNAH! Wha-why are you-" 

"Chill your nips Kristina I was just out for a quick swell. Besides, he's not here," Kristina was my best friend. I've known her my whole life. We've gone through everything together except those awkward six months I was a bitch to her, but here she is as perky, happy, and as loving as ever.

"Savannah I-I know he's not here I'm just worried about you. You keep disappearing even though your sleeping over at MY house! And your ingnoring me by comming here and making yourself shark food. Now come on! I've got a suprise for you!" Kristina was just so skinny and short its a wonder she's not blowing away in the wind.

"Ohh. Please no Kristy. I just came down here to clear my head. You know surfing is the only way to do that. Besides, I swear on Madonna's future grave that you can tie me to a chair glue my eyes open and force me to watch all those crappy- I mean romatically cultivating soap opreas you love so much. Just please no suprises!" I pleaded. Kristy was getting that evil look on her face and I didn't like it at all.

"No. You are getting outta that bathing suit taking a nice hot shower and then going to do as i say or so help me Madonna I will drag you from this beach by the lace of your board shorts and driving your sorry broke ass out of Palm Beach County and straight to the Gulf of Mexico and throw you into that oil spill!" I bursted out laughing because she was being dead serious. And the Madonna thing was just perfect. We have had this on going inside joke about Madonna after the latest gLee episode all about her.

"Alright! You win let me just pick up my board and.." I bent down to pick up my board, but had a genious idea. Kristy stood there in her jean short shorts and blue tank top..perfect. I picked up her legs and threw her over my shoulder ignoring her desperate cries.

"SAVANNAH GIMBLE! YOU PUT ME DOWN! NOOOWW!" She shrieked while hitting my back with her fists. Unlike Kristina, I was tall and pretty well built from years of karate, surfing, and competitive swimming. I reached the waters edge. She crainned her neck over my shoulder and she saw what was coming next and before she could proptest I threw her into the warm Florida waters. She hit the water with a loud splash. Then her head bobbed up while she spat out a mouthful of water. Her dark brunette hair was plastered against her face as her dark eyes glistened with comical anger and humor.

"I hate you Savannah Gimble!" With that she grabbed my arms and pulled me in.

I got out of Kristina's shower and padded my way into her room. I walked into the familiar pink room seeing Kristina putting on some make up.  

"How was your shower?" she asked putting on her mascara. 

"Good, wet. Um what are you doing? I thought we were just going to Muvico 20 down in City Place." I said unwrapping my towel around my head. I combed through my long blonde hair with my fingers. I watched Kristy put on her make up in the mirror and her hand didn't miss a stroke when she said. 

"Oh we are. We are just gonna meet up some friends for dinner down at Cheesecake Factory before." My hands froze in mid comb. 

"What?! No you can't do this to me. Please no one else its only been three months an-" 

"Exactly! Three months! Three months of hell Savannah. You can't keep doing this to yourself! You need to reach out of your small circle of just me and your books. You don't talk in school. You don't talk to your parents. You don't go out anymore except the beach and its the first time I've heard you laugh today in forever!" She spun around and grabbed me by the shoulders and said, "Please. For me. I swear as soon as the movie is over we can go home. Ok?" I looked at my small friend and sighed.

"Ok. But what am I going to wear?" I just said Kristy's favorite words and the biggest smile spread across her face. With that she whisked into her walk in closet with me on her heals.

"You look HOT! Come on the guys will love you!" I was getting out of Kristy's Mini Cooper hugging in my leather jacket the only thing mine in the ridiculous outfit i was wearing. Kristy walked up to me in her skin tight jeans and fashionably ripped rolling stones tee.  

"Really? You think I look hot? In this?" I pointed to my outfit.  

I was wearing ankle high brown boots and a jean mini skirt. I had on a blue "peace out" tee with my leather jacket. My hair was pulled back in a loose pony tail to compliment my high cheek bones. A little lip gloss there and a little bronzer here and now I'm stuck here not there. 

"YEASS! Now come on! Some one wants to see you!" She locked the cooper and grabbed my hand. She ran down to the elevator in the parking garage. Every single second I was thinking. 'someone wants to see me?'

A huge dinner crowd lined up in front of The Cheese Cake Factory. Kristy tapped her black balet slippers impatiently. She pulled out her iPhone from her black coach purse. (Just to let you know. Kristy is on the wealthy side of the tracks and takes evrything for grantid. Mostly its because she's an only child and the fact that her parents are the best investment bankers in the U.S.)

"Hello?" she chirped into the reciever. 

"OH! Hey yeah I'm here," 

"She's here too." 

"Yea were outside waiting and-ahaha! really? seriously? Ok we'll be in in a sec. K bye." Kristy put her phone back into her purse. 

"Well they were inside while we were out here looking like dweebs. Come on."

We walked past the hostess and towards the back near the open kitchen. The dim lighting and general rumble of sonversations filled the room. We reached a booth in the corner and there were two guys sitting on either side with their noses in menus. One felt our presence and put down a menu with a smile.  

"Well hello there Kristy. Glad you can make it!" it was Matt, her boyfriend. He was a nice guy. Star running back at Cardinal Newman and on the "hotties list" at school. He was short though around Kristy's height and one of the main reasons why she's completly in love with him. His shaggy brown hair barelly reached the top of his eye brows, but didn't shadow his hazel shinning eyes. He gleamed his beautiful boy next door smile that made Kristy release a girlish squeal. They embraced and Kristy slid right next to him in the booth.

"Oh this is Ryan." Matt pointed to the guy who still didn't look up from his menu.  

"Hi," I managed to say. Yet Ryan didn't move. 

"Dude. Savannah is here!" Matt said taking the menu away from him. 

"Man I was looking at the cupcakes!" Ryan retorted. He still didn't notice me, but I noticed him.

Wavy black hair tossled slightly to look like bed head. Creamy blue eyes with flecks of green. Dark tan skin and perfect muscles that showed in his white tee. Full curved lips and a smug grin tugging on the edge of his mouth. He was hot. Just then he turned and looked at me. 

"Hi," he didn't even blink. He turned back and faced Matt and asked, "Well I meet her. Can we go now?" My heart dropped and with that I knew it was going to be a long night.
