My Love

Chapter 3

Chapter 3

I remembered when I read my poem, nobody understood but you did.

"If I sit in the rain, maybe I can drown in something other than my thoughts."

I remember your long poem, it was beautiful.

"I like long walks, walks where i don't think I just walk and let nature soothe my soul. I like poetry, I like words. I like long deep phrases, phrases that make you rethink your entire existence. I like art, I like museums, I like adventures, I like taking chances, I like taking a long naps on the sofa in the afternoon after a long morning. I like sleep, I like orange juice, I like colorful crew neck sweaters. I like movies, I like netflix. And yes, I may or may not like chick flicks. I like my friends, I like messages from you. I like pizza. And I like Florida. I like random kisses on the cheeks. I like holding hands. I like long mentally stimulating conversations about nothing. I like to cuddle. I like book recommendations. I like sunrises. I like sunsets. I like the stars, I like the sun, I like the moon. And yes, I like you."

"Hey Avery, we're going to explore around." Jordan says, "so like put on a long summer dress or a skirt or shorts or something."

I got out of the bathroom in a tank top that says, Fuck You and shorts that goes right under my knees.

"You look wonderful." She says, I smiled and grab my things. "Why don't you ever wear make up?" She ask.

"Erm, it's a waste of money and.. I don't like using it." I replied, shrugging.

"But if you wear make-up, you will make you look pretty." She states.

She them smiles and left.

Does that mean I am ugly?

She just said I am ugly.

Because I am.

I brought a necklace that has a small fake elephant tusk, I always wanted this when I was young but the elephant tusk was real so I didn't bought it.

The girls was literally going to every clothing store that is available here, well it's on sale.

Then I notice a shop that sells shoes and jerseys. "Hey Zach," I nudge him lightly in the arm.

"Are you okay?" He ask me, "erm yeah, why?" I chuckled.

"You look so sad and you've been so quiet lately." He swings his arm around my shoulder.

"I am fine, don't worry." I pat his chest, we enter the store.

"Oh look, Kobe's new kicks." Sam points at it excitedly.

I walk around the store, trying to find Kobe Bryant's jersey.

"Hey, may I help you?" The guy approach me, "oh hey, it's you."

Oh the guy who called me beautiful.

"Oh hi," I smiled in surprise. "You work here?" I ask, "yeah." He nods.

"I am Avery by the way," I introduced myself.

"Wesley," He smiles. He has a nice smile, and he has dimples. And I do not have dimples.

"Do you have Kobe Bryant's jersey?" I ask, "oh they just got sold out."

"Aw man," Zach says. "Hi, I am Zach." He then introduced himself.

"Wesley." He says, awkwardly. He swipes his fringe out of his eyes.

"Hey guys, the girls are going for a manicure." Sam says, "Evans, you want to go?" Nathan ask.

I shook my head in response.

"Why not? Manicures and pedicures seems fun to me." Travis says, we just stared at him.

"What the eff dude." Nathan walks away from him.

;

"Hey guys, we just found a club." Jordan says, meeting us at lunch.

"And we're going there tonight," Mia says excitedly. They both sat down, "don't worry, Avery. We bought you a dress." Jordan assured me.

"What..?" I look at her, "yeah, you need to wear a dress. You will look hot, don't worry." Jordan stated.

"She's already hot enough," Travis says. Everyone groan, rolling their eyes at him.

; 8.30pm

"Oh Avery, you look gorgeous!" I put my hand over my other hand. "It's showing too much skin, Jordan." I point out.

"No, you look just fine." She states.

I look fat.

"I got you flats."

"Jordan, I honestly don't know what to do in a club." I say, putting my flats on.

"Well, you meet boys, you dance, you drink."

;

"Shots please," I ordered, "oh damn." Zach says in a high-pitch tone.

"Hey Erwin, shots!" Zach shouted. Erwin came and join us, "are you wearing a dress?" He ask.

"I was kinda of force to." I shrug.

The tray came, we three took one small glass.

; Eugene's Point Of View

"Hey, I am going back." I say to the guys. "Oh come on!" They all groan.

I ignored her and turn to Mia. "Hey Mia, I am going back." She was dancing with Jordan, happily.

"Yeah okay, babe!" She shouted, jumping around. "Hey Hunter, bring Avery back too." Zach says, passing her to me.

"Why is she so drunk?" I ask, putting her arm around my shoulder.

"Shots, she is kinda of depressed.. I guess." Zach says.

I said goodbyes to them and went out of the club. "Where are we going?" Avery slurred.

"Back to the hotel." I replied to her question. "Who are you?"

"Eugene."

"Oh."

"I used to date a guy named Eugene."

"I am the guy you dated." I stated, "he was sweet." She smiles slightly.

We finally got into the elevator, her head on my shoulder.

"Avery, are you sad?" I ask, reaching our floor.

"Yeah," she mumbles. I open her door and put her on her bed.

"Why are you sad?" I ask, sitting down on the floor.

"Because he doesn't love me anymore."

"You still love me?"

"Yeah."

"Yep, you're drunk." I push some of her hair out of her face, "I know I am drunk." She stated.

"But I love you, and the next day when I wake up, I will still love you."
