Every Little Part Of Me

Date gone wrong

Chapter seven

“It was nice seeing you both, you are welcome to stay here, but if not then we can meet up sometime this week.” I offered.

“Actually, we are flying back to Italy tomorrow afternoon.” My mother said.

“I thought you would be staying until the end of the week.” I said in disbelief.

“I know, we did too, but after what happened, I thought we’d give you some time, alone, but you will certainly be joining us in the annual ball that we host every year.” My mother said excitedly.

“Of course mama, why miss the biggest opportunity to wear a beautiful dress,” I chuckled, “by the way, isn’t that like in a few weeks?” I ask.

“It’s in two weeks actually, and I already checked and that is your spring break, am I right.” My father said. I laughed and nodded my head.

“Perfect, we will see you in two weeks, Martin and Elisa will be so happy to see you, and also, the Acosta family will be there, be nice,” I pulled a tight smile, “ and other families, along with the Carvelli family, they are such a nice couple, they have a son and a daughter, their daughter is a model so she travels a lot but cleared her schedule just so she could attend the ball, and I think they mentioned that the son is studying here in the states but I don’t quite recall where.”

Carvelli? My mind was so clogged up right now that I didn’t recognize that so familiar name. But anyways, I was still pretty pissed at the bomb my parents had decided to throw at me, but I honestly feel drained of energy. The thing that happened with Luke and now this, it was too much.

*later that evening*

My parents had left and I just sat in my room, thinking over everything that had happened when I heard Belle slam the front door. I knew what was going to happen so I sat there waiting.

She barged into my room and threw herself face down on my bed.

“Boys are retarded, I hate their stinking guts, they make me vomit, they are scum in between my toes.” She mumbled into the bed. I smiled in amusement.

“Did you really just quote The Little Rascals?” I asked and she nodded.

“Yes, yes I did, wasn’t it brilliant.” She said turning her head to the side to look at me, she pulled a tight smile then groaned.

“I take it the date didn’t go so well.” I said, rubbing her arm. She mumbled something under her breath.

“What was that?” I asked, shifting my body so I would be looking straight at her. She sat up and leaned against the headboard.

“Nothing, you know how I went on a date with Mike, that cute transfer student I told you about, well he turned out to be a total jerk, he would not stop flirting with the waitresses, I would talk but he would interrupt me and would start talking about himself, like ugh it was just so frustrating!” She said, throwing her hands up.

“And guess what the worst thing was,” I raised my eyebrows, “when he was driving me back home, he would grab my thigh and when he parked in front of the building he actually had the nerve to lean forward to kiss me, he caught me off guard and he’s a pretty good kisser but he tried putting his hand under my shirt to grab my boob!!!” She shrieked out. My eyes widened in shock.

“But guess what, I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t at least slap him, so I punched him, right in the balls.” She said with a killer smile, literally. I laughed until my stomach hurt and my eyes were watering.

“Oh god Belle, I will end up in the grave at my young age if you don’t stop.” I smiled at her and she smiled back. My best friend always knows how to cheer my up even when she doesn’t know I need it.

“Alright, let's go get some food because I can feel that you had a crappy day as well and what helps crappy days?” She says standing up.

“FOOD!!” we both say at the same time which caused us to laugh, really loud.

“Okay, so what do you feel like eating, I’m feeling some Panda.” She says, as we walk out of the apartment. I nod in agreement and we headed to the nearest Panda, we both had cars, I had my Maroon colored 4 door Jeep and she had her black 1967 4 door Impala, but we decided to walk since it was nice out.

We ordered our food and were deciding whether to eat there or back at home, when the door opened and I turned on instinct and guess who I saw, Luke but he wasn’t alone, he was with some girl. I couldn’t quite see her face but I could recognize that fiery hair anywhere, Victoria. I tried to hold back a glare but Belle caught it and looked over at the pair and her eyes widened.

“Okay, we are definitely going back home so you can explain to me why Luke is with that perfect looking barbie.” She said, walking out. I stood there for a second staring at them when Luke turned and looked at me in surprise, he called out my name and stepped towards me when I hurried out the door and caught up with Belle.

A few hours later, we were sitting out in the balcony, we had finished our food and I had told her everything, from the moment where that perfect barbie came up to me, to the moment in the gym with Luke, to my parents and their bombshell.

When I had finished telling her everything, she had gone through so many emotions and facial expressions, anger, pissed off, sad, surprised, shocked, you name it.

“Luke is definitely on my hit list for the time being and my gosh Ama, your parents can’t do that, can they?” She questioned.

I shrugged, “they can and they are, they at least want me to give the guy a chance to prove himself and after what happened with Luke, I would rather not spend my days moping around when I can see who this guy, Ivan really is.”

She smiled at me and you can say launched herself at me and hugged me. “That's my girl Ama.” She said giving me a cheshire grin.

We cleaned up and went to bed. Tomorrow was holding something I was totally unprepared for.
