Finding Waldo

Chapter 15: Night conversations

- "Are you waiting for something? Start talking women" -Says Dylan while driving us to his house

- "What is this about again?"- Rose suddenly speaks, she was most  recently passed out at the back of the car next to an impatient Sarah. Come again, why am I in the front seat and not the driver's sister? Never mind.

- "The stupid other Waldo at the party"- I repeat

- "Oh so I did interrupt something between you two.. not good apparently" -Dyl lets a chuckle out with the last part

- "If by something you mean having to pull through a conversation with that asshat, then yes"-

- "I think you looked cute together, you needed that dance with him" -Says Sarah

I cant blame her, she isnt wrong. I was having so much fun and he definitely catched my eye with that face so.. Stop it Isabelle. What did we learn today? Never trust a guy by his beautiful and intoxicating eyes.. I mean with the same costume and arrogance you have. Yes, that sounds better.

- "I wouldn't have done it if I knew what kind of guy he is" -That is the best answer that comes to my mind and I cant help but feel so stupid talking about it -"Can we change the subject?"-

They all agreed and we left the conversation there. The girls start talking about something that happened during the party between some girls in their cheerleading team. I am so exhausted to even pay attention and in no time we are at the Parker's home.

As we walk from the car to the front door of the house I can't stop myself from smiling like every time I come here. The two story brick home my friends live in. So many memories and stories it holds and my first escape every time I need to be held by a shoulder or in need of a good laugh.

My mind travels into memory lane so fast, from the first time I came here when we were only four-years-old and Sarah wouldn't stop talking about her big brother and his annoying friends which we made our life sole purpose to make theirs impossible. We just hated them for ignoring us.

Her parents hated that we didn't get along so after some years they finally understood how to make us get along. And who would blame them? We nearly destroyed their home more than once with our pranks to each other.

But going back to the present, I stumble before getting inside the house. Maybe the alcohol I drank is still messing with my head we all automatically head to the second floor were the bedrooms are, getting into Sarah's room. We lost Dylan somewhere in the way but I didn't even realize.

We got into our pijamas and sat in the bed. Since we usually have sleepovers we all have a pair of pijamas at the other houses.

The three of us were silent and it was almost awkward, neither one was trying to sleep either and it was really late. Sarah was the first one to speak

- "So whose going to speak first? The three of us know there are some things to share"-

- "Cant it wait till tomorrow?"- asks Rose avoiding our gazes

- "I'll start..."- like that I told them everything that happened tonight, filled in Rose in my quarrel with Sarah and how that let to the rest -"... I'm so ashamed of what happened! He was an idiot but he is part of the team and his arrogance made me feel weak. How will I deal with him at the team, which he doesn't know I'm a part of, by the way"-

- "Don't you think just maybe you are judging him too fast?"- says Rose trying to reason with me

- "And what if I am? He did exactly the same thing calling me a slut"-
