"Luke."
"Hmm?" he said, putting the ice cream tub down onto his lap. I paused the movie.
"What movie do you want to watch?" I asked.
"What do you mean, aren't we watching one now?"
"I can tell you don't want to watch this."
"It doesn't bother me though."
"Luke."
"Just let it play, it's at the sha la la la la la my oh my part."
"The what part?"
"The one with the frogs."
"Kiss the girl?"
"Yeahh." he said. I chuckled and played the movie. He was right. this was the 'sha lala' part.
LUKE'S POV
I was turning into quite the fan girl over the Little Mermaid as the now red-headed girl sitting next to me. Hey, isn't Ariel a red-head too? My thoughts were interrupted by the lyrics playing from the TV.
"There you see her
Sitting there across the way
She don't got a lot to say
But there's something about her
And you don't know why
But you're dying to try
You wanna kiss the girl"
What? I glanced over at Alice and saw her focusing on the movie. I just watched her as the song played.
"Yes, you want her
Look at her, you know you do
Possible she wants you too
There is one way to ask her
It don't take a word
Not a single word
Go on and kiss the girl."
The words made there way to my memories and sank into me.
"Sha, la, la, la, la, la
My oh my
Look like the boy too shy
Ain't gonna kiss the girl
Sha, la, la, la, la, la
Ain't that sad?
Ain't it a shame?
Too bad, he gonna miss the girl
Now's your moment
Floating in a blue lagoon
Boy you better do it soon
No time will be better
She don't say a word
And she won't say a word
Until you kiss the girl
Sha, la, la, la, la, la
Don't be scared
You got the mood prepared
Go on and kiss the girl
Sha, la, la, la, la, la
Don't stop now
Don't try to hide it how
You want to kiss the girl
Sha, la, la, la, la, la
Float along
And listen to the song
The song say kiss the girl
Sha, la, la, la, la
The music play
Do what the music say
You got to kiss the girl
You've got to kiss the girl
You wanna kiss the girl
You've gotta kiss the girl
Go on and kiss the girl."
I shot my arm up and paused the movie, looking once more over to the girl next to me.
"I have to kiss the girl." I said, our faces only inches apart.
"Why?' she whispered in return. I leant in and kissed her softly. Everything those words meant, I felt about her. Yes, its been two months since we've been close. But it felt like forever. Considering since we talked or saw each other every day. We did things and understood each other in ways only we could, and I never thought I'd have someone like that in my life.
She pulled away and pulled her hair up in a pony tail, turning off the TV. She got up and walked to the bedroom balcony. I followed her and saw her opening the slide door, but then she paused. "Luke."
"Yeah?"
"Can you go to the store and buy some pasta for tonight?"
"Sure." I said.
I got up and walked over to her, kissing her on the cheek. "Bye."
I walked down the steps and out the door, making my way into the car.
I slammed the door shut and roared the car engine to life. "Fucking shit Luke." I said to myself, and I sped off.
ALICE'S POV
I sat on the white plastic chair and glanced at the box on the table. It's been a while I thought. One won't hurt. Will it? I opened the wooden box and rummaged through the stuff inside, until I found the untouched pack of cigarettes. I took those and a lighter out, sliding one out of the box. I put it between my fingers, brought it up to my lips, and lit it. I sucked in the smoke then blew it out. It had started to rain.
You're so fucking stupid. You know how hard it was to stop, and now here you are. What the fuck is wrong with you? You're nothing. You sent the poor boy out for pasta? Are you serious? You're a fool. You don't deserve anything, nor anyone, especially someone like Luke. You drool over him, but you know he'll fuck you over if anything happens, but that's what you are. A toy. I puffed the cigarette. Your father isn't with you, you know why? Because he's got his new wife. He doesn't need you. And you don't need your mother either, since you thought you were a smart little fuck and left her. And now look at you you big baby, you're alone. Forever alone to be exact. You're a little fat ass too. you think an in between size of 2 and 3 is ok? That you're skinny? No you fat fuck. Get to that zero. Get those hip bones out. Make your thigh gap bigger. You're fucking ugly. Get your shit together. Thank the Lord you have makeup, that's the only reason Luke even looked at you. I drew in a long breath with the smoke and felt my body crash with the tears streaming from my face. You're worthless. No one want's you just go. Don't worry no one will miss you. Especially Lu-
"Alice?"
