The Mute Girl And The Jerk

Chapter 4 : Have Some Fun :p

" no matter what happens you do not leave my side okay?" Shawn says as we arrive. I nod and get out of the car. I look around us and there's a lot of people. Some who just arrived and others drinking and talking outside next to some cars.

We get into the house and I cough from the smell of alcohol. I'm not really a party person, and even if I liked parties I would never be invited. I never really fit in in my old school. I was the freak with no friends. the kids there used to make fun of me for being social awkward and shy which made me even more shy but last year I've made a friend and she was really nice. I once went with her to one party and it was actually my first party and I had fun but when I got home I started crying not knowing why. It often happens to me when I let myself have some fun.

" WOAH MENDES YOU MADE IT!!" a blond guy yell. Shawn smiles and they do this hand shake guys usually do. " yo who's that girl with you?"

Shawn looks at me and then at the guy. " that's Jessica" he introduces me.

" hey Shawn " I hear someone say . I turn around and see a girl with red hair walking towards us. She's wearing a short white dress. Way too short may I add, with black high heels. She hugs him but he doesn't hug her back. As soon as she lets go of him Shawn holds my hand intertwining our fingers.

Guess that's the girl he was talking about earlier.

" hey Stephanie" he says. She looks at our intertwined fingers and frowns.

" we're gonna go get a drink, see you guys" Shawn says and walks away dragging me behind him. We walk to the table where the drinks are.

" want a drink?" he asks me and I shake my head no. " of course" he says sarcastically. He lets go of my hand and pours a drink for himself. Suddenly someone bumps into me but Shawn catches me before I fall  and hit the floor.

" yo S-sorry" a guy stutters. He is clearly drunk. " Mendess what's up??" the guy says and hugs Shawn.

" I'm good man"

" where's your sister? Why isn't she with you?" he asks. Shawn has a sister?? I look around us and there's teenagers dancing everywhere. I look at my right and there's  two people kissing. I look back at Shawn immediately .

" she stayed at home" Shawn says " we're going to dance"

He holds my hand and start walking into the crowd of people. I bump into some people on my way.

" Shawn" I tap him on his shoulder " I'm going to sit on the couch over there".

He looks at me confused " WHAT? I CAN'T HERE YOU " he yells over the music.

" I'M GONNA SIT THERE" I yell back and gesture towards the couch. He nods and I go. There's a few people sitting there.

I notice Shawn dancing with some people. He looks at me, smirks and starts walking towards me.

" come on" Shawn says and holds his hand out for me to take " move your ass and come have some fun"

" I... I'm good here" I say. He looks at me for a few seconds and then bends down, puts his arms around my waist and lifts me up. He starts walking past people, I try to tell him to put me down but he doesn't listen to me. Once we're in the middle of the dancing crowd he finally puts me down.

" come on dance with me " he tells me and twists me around. He holds both of my hands and starts moving them on the tempo of the music. Everyone around me is dancing so why not? Everyone is busy dancing or drinking or making out, nobody will notice me  so I close my eyes, take a deep breath and let myself have fun. I start dancing. Shawn smiles and says something but I couldn't hear him. I smile at the way he moves his head and arms while dancing. He's cute when he does that.

I feel my phone vibrates. I look at it and I see that my mother is calling me. I become anxious and nervous all of a sudden. How did I forget about her? She'll kill me if she knows that I went to a party. I walk out of the house and continue walking until the sound of the music is barely heard. I pick up the phone and close my eyes ready to hear her yell at me.

" WHERE ARE YOU YOUNG LADY?" she yells.

" mom I-"

" DO YOU KNOW HOW WORRIED I AM?? I CAME BACK HOME TO SEE THAT YOUR MISSING!! YOU ARE AT A PARTY AREN'T YOU?? I CAN HEAR THE MUSIC, OH YOU ARE IN BIG TROUBLE"

" no I..." I start to say but she hungs up the phone. Why is she like that??

I walk back inside and search for Shawn. I feel a tap on my shoulder. I turn around and see Stephanie.

" so you and Shawn eh?" she says in her High pitched voice. A girl comes from behind her and stands next to her. " what are you even doing here?" the girl says. " I mean you don't drink, you don't dance and you don't even play games. You don't fit in. "

She's right I don't fit in. I don't fit anywhere. I see everyone having friends and going out with them and having such a good time and being loved by everyone and then there's ... me, the shy, social awkward one who barely has one friend.

" what does Shawn even sees in you?! I'm sure he is just using you. No one would wanna hang out with you. I mean just look at you" they laugh and  walk away.

They're right, Shawn is using me so she would leave him alone. He wouldn't want to hang out with me in a normal day. Nobody would.

I take a deep breath then look at my watch to see what time it is. I look up and see Shawn talking with Stephanie. I walk towards them. Shawn looks at me and smiles." you want to go home?" he asks me and I nod. " Fine let's go. It's getting boring here anyways".

We walk out of the house and towards his car. I sit in his car and look at my laps. I feel insecure and nervous and I feel a weird feeling inside of me. I feel weird and empty. All my insecurities that I've been trying to push away came back.

" it was fun, wasn't it?" he asks but I don't respond. I don't feel like talking.

"  ugh why the fuck are you always mute??" he yells angrily " whenever I talk to you, you don't answer. It's fucking annoying. You look so damn stupid. When someone talks to you, you talk back. You start a conversation with them" he yells.

I look at him and then at my hands. A tear escapes my eyes and I immediately wipe it away. Shawn starts his car and drives away not saying anything else. What's up with everyone yelling at me today?
