It's now Saturday and I️ have been laying around all day long.
Carlos is probably studying, Bella is probably drinking and Jason is probably have sex with Yovanna and I️ am at home. I️ could go visit Taylor but we already made plans to hang out tomorrow.
I'm excited to go back to class already but that's on Monday.
I️ scroll through my Instagram feed and decide to look up Yovanna. She posts bikini pictures and selfies and party photos. Typical. I️ scroll down and find a photo of her, she's sitting on Jason's lap, wearing his red hoodie he had on the other night. He's tagged and I️ go into his profile. He's private but it says he's only got 24 posts. I️ don't follow him though, I've already weirded him out plenty.
I️ follow Taylor though, I️ find her Instagram and she follows me back within seconds and it makes me laugh.
I️ get an incoming call from Bella.
"Hey, got any plans tonight?" She asks me.
"No, why?"
"Do you wanna come drinking with me and my friends? Carlos is coming." She says and I️ don't hesitate to say no. Especially if Jason and Vanna will be there.
"Please!" I️ can hear her pouting on the phone. "I️ can come pick you up!"
"No, I️ am really tired Bella. Sorry." I️ apologize and hang up.
I️ hope that Carlos and Jason are okay. I️ hope they don't fight.
What if they do? No.
Should I️ just make an appearance? She didn't mention Jason.. just Carlos? Maybe I should go? I️ don't know the location but I'm pretty sure there is only one little bar in this town and that's Cuffs. I️ pass by it all the time. I️ decide to go.
When I pull up I️ see Bella's car, and Carlos's car. As soon as I get to the door Carlos gives me a big welcoming hug.
"Hey Sel." He smiles and I notice Jason.
"Hey Carlos." I️ greet him and sit at the stools. "Can I️ be here? I'm 18." I️ whisper.
"Yeah of course. Khalil's Dad owns the place." He assures me and I smile. I️ don't plan on drinking. I️ peep my eyes over to Jason and I don't see Yovanna anywhere. I️ hope she doesn't show up.
Jason's bruises are going away a little bit. His wound is a scab now. Ouch.
I️ look away when he puts his glass down on the table top.
"Yay!" Bella hugs me tightly and hands me some beer.
"I'm okay." I️ turn it down and and she laughs. "No problemo. Let me know if you want anything!"
"Hey." I️ feel a hand rest against my back gently. I️ look to my left and there stands Jason, he looks handsome.
"Hey." I️ smile. Carlos is watching us but looks away when Jason stares at him.
"Do you want anything to drink?" He asks me and I️ shake my head.
"I️ don't plan on getting drunk." I️ say. He nods and leans closer.
"Do you want to, um, come with me? For a bit?" He clears his throat. I️ try to examine his face of any anger but can't find it.
"Yeah, okay." I️ say and stand up off of the barstool. Carlos watches us as we walk away and we disappear into a side room. It's empty and quiet and pretty dim. It's a little restaurant attached to this bar but it's closed.
