The One That Got Away

Chapter 3

I make my way out to the car with them following close behind.

D:" Slow down, koshy"this just makes me walk faster.

Erin catches up with me and walks at my pace.

L:" What is Gabbie gonna think"
E:" She won't like it. She will be fine though"
L:" Why doesn't she like him"
E:" He know as the bad boy in the school"
L:" Oh, ya I forgot"
E:" Ya"

We finally make it to my car. Gabbie and Carly are waiting by it.

G:" Took you guys lo--" she stops mid sentence and stares at David then at me "Liza can I talk to you"
L:" Ya sure... Here is the keys guys. Go ahead and get in"I throw the keys at David and he catches them

Gabbie pulls me aside to talk to me. She has something to say about David. Great.

G:" I thought we talked about this, Liza"
L:" Erin is okay with it. Alex is okay with it. Your the only one who has a problem with this Gabbie"
G:" That's because he's a bad boy"
L:" Maybe he's not"
G:" I just don't want to see you get hurt"
L:" I'm a big girl I'll be fine"
G:" Okay"
L:" You ready"
G:" Ya"

We walk back to the car and hop in. David is in the passenger seat while everybody else is in the back.

Was this a bad idea? maybe. Do I care? No of course not. Its not like its doing any harm. Its just dinner with friends and my mom. Just like back in Texas.

G:" What are we eating?
L:" I have no idea.. Lauren never really tells me what we are having"
D:" Who's Lauren?"
L:" My maid"
D:" I still don't understand how you have a maid"
G:" Do you not know who her mom is"
D:" Umm no"
C:" She's only like the greatest fashion designer out there"
D:" Oh so, koshy, has a famous mom"
L:" I wouldn't call it famous"
E:" Ya you would. Your mom is famous."
D:" cool"

The rest of the ride was just them talking about how awesome and famous my mom is. I guess she kinda is famous. Just not in the I'm always on TV famous. Just everybody know who she is type of famous. She's popular. There we go. Popular.

We pull into our apartment. We all get out and make our way inside.

We all hop in the elevator and I push the top floor button. They all gasp.

G:" Top floor?!?"
E:" Next you gonna tell us you have the penthouse"

I don't say anything just let the elavator make its way up the apartments. Finally the elevator reaches our floor. They all wait by the door in anticipation. They open.

D:" Koshy!! God Damn!!"
G:" Penthouse nice"
C:" I've always wanted to live in a penthouse before"
E:" How many floors are there"
L:" We have two floors"
G:" Tour please"
L:" Okay well I may get lost just so you know"

I show them around my house. They are all amazed on how it looks and how big it is. Our last stop is my room.

D:" Holy fuck your room is big"
L:" This was gonna be my moms room but since she is never home she gave it to me"
D:" What about your dad"
L:" He died three years ago"
D:" Oh I'm sorry I asked"
L:" Ya"

I hear my computer go off by a video chat from Samaya. I walk over and answer it.

S:" Lizzzzaaaa!!!"
L:" Samayaaaa!!"
S:" I have the rest of the gang with me too"
She turns the camera to face them
L:" Hey guys... I have some people I want y'all to meet" I call all them over so they can meet my other friends
S:" Did you make new friends already?"
L:" yes but they will never replace you guys."
S:" Okay good"
L:" Okay well this is Gabbie, Erin, Carly, David" the buzzer rings signaling that somebody wants permission to come up " And that is probably Alex so I be right back you can talk to them though"
S:" Okay well hi guys"
All:" Hii"
