“So he texted you that he was cancelling?”
Jessica said angrily while braiding my hair. I took my hair out of her hands and turned around and face her. I say defensively,
“Jess, he’s done nothing wrong and I did mention that he called right, after I replied to his text, apologizing.”
Jessica stands up and shakes her head. I raise my hands up for her to help me stand. Jess pulled me to feet, looked me in the eye and said,
“Alright but why did you cancel? You could’ve brought me along.”
Jess whined. I laughed at my crazy friend and said,
“Because it was a couple thing and sorry but I’m not running the football for the other team anytime soon.”
Jess shoved my shoulder playfully and said,
“But I thought what we had was real, I thought you really loved me Kelly!”
“Oh shuttup, you don’t run for the other team either. What do you want to eat? I think we have some chips.”
I wondered out loud and made my way to the kitchen. I opened a few cupboards and found the chips and took the soda out of the fridge. Jess giggles behind me like a five year, sometimes I wonder how she’s supposed to be the motherly figure of the group. One day she said she was the mother of our group and we all just went along with it but now I’m starting to question it. Jessica snatched the chips and began devouring them like she hadn’t eaten for days. I cried,
“Jess! I’m hungry too!”
I grabbed them out of her hand and managed to shove a few in my mouth before she body slammed be and grabbed the chips out of my hands. Jess did some sort of victory dance and ran upstairs to the closet. Why the closet? Well Ella and I found out that whenever Jess steals something, usually food, she’ll run upstairs to the hallway closet and lock herself in to eat. Yeah she’s a fatty but she amazingly stays super skinny. I laugh and yell,
“I’m coming for you Jess!”
Jess laughs maniacally and yells back,
“Not if I eat all the chips first!”
I laugh so hard that my sides start hurting and I run up the stairs. I tiptoe to the closet and yank the door and to Jess frantically shoving chips in her mouth, she looked like a chipmunk. Jess looked up to with a “deer caught in the headlights” look. We both started laughing like crazy, so much we both ended up on the laying on the floor probably looking like we’re having seizures.
Jess turned her head and groaned and said,
“I feel horrible. Never in my life will I touch another chip again at your house.”
I snort and say sarcastically,
“Yeah sure, Jess. You’re a food magnet.”
Jess sits up, her black hair looking like a crow’s nest. Mine probably didn’t look any better. I sit up and ask her,
“So you have your eye on anybody lately?”
Jess leans against the wall, purses her lips and says,
“No not really.”
I lay my head on my head on her shoulder and we sit in silence for a few minutes. Jess shrugs my head off her shoulder, stands and asks,
“You want to go work out? I feel these chips making their way to my thighs.”
I laugh as the jiggles her completely skinny leg. I grunt as I stand up and say,
“Sure thing, want to change?”
I glance down at the dress I’m wearing, of course I was going to change. I looked at Jessica’s outfit. She was wearing short denim shorts with a bright yellow tank where the straps combine and twists in the back with yellow flip flops. Jessica nods and goes to my room and heads straight for my walk in closet. Yep that’s my friend, she comes here so often that she doesn’t even ask to go through my closet. She pulled out bright coral running shorts and pulled off her shorts right in front of me. Did I mention she doesn’t even wait until I can grab some clothes before she starts changing, I swear this is like her second home of something. She throws her denim shorts onto my bed and I pick them up and throw them onto my desk. I walk around Jess who is trying on different running shoes. I take out my favorite blue short and slip them on under my dress. I take off my dress so now I’m standing in just a bra and running shorts. I look around for a shirt. Jessica sees me and throws me a pale blue tank top.
“Thanks Jess.”
I pull on the shirt. Jess just smiles and says,
“I got you girl.”
We both start laughing at her craziness. She walks out of the closet and bounces on my bed waiting for me. I grab a pair of socks and tie my white tennis shoes and shout,
“Let’s go get our work out on!”
“Wooho!!”
Jess shouts and fist pumps energetically in the air and we both make our way down stairs to the workout room in my basement.
