New, Unfamiliar, That’s what my life was for me now. I had just changed and everyone seemed to be noticing except me. Yeah maybe I had grown a few inches over the summer but that doesn’t mean I’m a whole new person does it? My phone interrupted my thoughts. I wished that for one day I didn’t have a text from someone asking how my day was. It was the same bleep every time. The black thing just lying on my bed was really starting to get on my nerves. I picked it up. My bright neon pink nail polish was chipped. All my friends say I might have a small problem where I want everything to look right. So what it’s a crime to take pride in the way you look, I mean every girl spends half an hour getting ready for school in the morning. Suddenly my attention turned back to the phone in my hand. My best mate Ashley had just text me. Again. This time wasn’t any different from any other time she texts me witch is pretty much all the time.ashely was the complete opposite of me.Shes into guys, guys and yes you guessed it, even more guys. I clicked the little envelope on my screen it was flashing constantly.
HEY do u wanna meet up 2day i herd tat u no who is gunna be there we cud bump into him xxxxxx
I burst out laughing. Only Ashley could turn meeting up into a secret mission to try and get a guys attention. Before this summer when I was still in middle school then maybe I would have hesitated but now I was going on into high school it felt as if the only thing that mattered to me was my reputation. The only person going to the same school as me that I actually liked was Ashley. Ash and me go way back, people always use to think that we were lesbians together. I personally think that it’s gross. To be honest I thought that guys were a completely different species that I shouldn’t talk to no matter how much they talked to me. Back in middle school I was the tomboy she was the girly girl. Now were the exact same (except for the fact that I still think some guys are still from a completely different planet, but if you saw the guys from my middle school then you would have to agree with me My reply was s.a.s (short and sweet
B there in 5 XOXOX
Why had I said five, oh god that meant I had to leave a.s.a.p. I picked up my bag, checked I had all the essentials lip kit, foundation, hairbrush and mints and I was out the door.
It was only a 5 minute walk to the park. I couldn’t decide whether I wanted to really meet her Ashley always fills me in with loads of gossip about everyone.
“Hey Courtney, over here” I swung my head round to see that Ashley was already talking to a bunch of guys. Her long blonde hair was tied up in a messy bun. She wore designer shades to make her appear more mysterious. She was wearing a dress that I haven’t seen her in before. Bright pink strapless and it was tight in just the right places (that’s what she says about every dress she owns)
“Hey I see you’ve already made new friends” I was looking around eyeing each of them up and down. The first guy my eyes saw was tall. Very tall. He had brown curly hair and his eyes were just so brown it was unbelievable. The next guy I saw was around about average height. He had longish blonde hair. Glasses covered his eyes so he looked “cool”.
There was only one other guy left to check out. I had to angle my head a little bit because of where he was standing. Wow he was just so… gorgeous his jeans fitted him perfectly. His big blue eyes just stood out I couldn’t stop looking at them. It was almost like I was in a trance.
“Courtney I would like you to meet my new friends” the way that she said friends said it all. They were… how do you put it? ‘Potential boyfriends’ I understood completely. Ash looked at me then at the blonde guy in the middle. Now I completely understood that he was her next target.
“The one standing on the far right is Sam, in the middle is Ben and the last guy actually im sorry but I don’t think you told me your name” her attention was now directed at the last guy I looked him in the eye but for some reason I still couldn’t take my eyes of him.
“No I’m sorry, I didn’t tell you my name, hi I’m Jake and you are?”
It took me a while to realise that he was talking to me.”Oh um hi I’m Courtney” why did I have to sound like such an idiot I mean in front of such a cutie. I could just imagine what Ben and Sam were thinking about me. They had probably already sussed me out from The moment I laid eyes on him.Ben broke the silence “ so whose up for a game of truth of dare “I could tell from the smirk expression on his face that this game was going to involve a lot of weird but wonderful dares.“Yeah that sounds like fun, right Courtney?” her tone of voice was telling me all I needed to know. “You know what it actually does sound like a lot of fun I haven’t played truth or dare in ages” I knew that sooner or later I would regret making thins decision. “Great let’s get started, jack why don’t you ask Ash? “His voice sounded like well like an annoying little brother tormenting you
“Um yeah ok I guess so. Ash truth or dare?”
“Um I guess I’ll go for truth, no, weight, yeah truth”. I could see that jack was trying to think of a good question to ask Ashley.
“ok I got one, Ashley do you or do you not find Ben attractive?” his face had gone from straight into a guy who looks like he knows what he’s doing when he doesn’t.
“I change my mind I go for dare instead “Ashley’s voice was getting really nervous I could tell that she was not in any way happy with this question
Sam butted in “you can’t go back once you’ve made up your mind” now Sam even sounded like he was teasing Ashley but knowing Ashley she’ll work her magic and find a way out of this.
“Fine! You know what yeah I do think Ben Is well reasonably attractive, I mean maybe if he had a more defined 6-pack then I would dare call him fit” Ashley had said it with so much dignity that even Jack looked taken back by that comment but then again Ashley always knows just what to do to get any and every guys attention.
“wooahh that girl is feisty “I could tell Ashley was very pleased with herself now.
“Ok Ashley your turn ask anyone you like “everyone could tell ben was trying to change the subject
“Ummmmm Sam truth or dare?”
“Dare all the way “Sam seemed pretty confident of himself
“I dare you to kiss Courtney” everyone was looking at me now and my cheeks turned bright red, what the hell was Ashley thinking I’ve never ever kissed a boy before and she knew it.ahhhhh i really hated ashley right now she knew i liked somone else not sam.
"yeah ill kiss her but only if she will let me" wow now i was thinking sam was such a gental man but i didnt like him i liked dan. i cant say no though or ashley will hate me so here goes
"yes you can kiss me,i mean its no biggy" oh god this was it,my first ever kiss he wasleaning in closer and closer i could now smell him and he smelt amazing.he wisperd to me.
'just close your eyes and it will br over and done'
did this mean he didnt want to kiss me,what did he mean over and done a kiss is a kiss right.wow his lips just touched mine and i swear i just saw fireworks but i have never felt that way before.I dont even know weather he was any good or not i had nothing to compare it to,unlike ashley. I guess i will have to ask her about it later
