Chapter Thirteen : Cup Pong

"This is our furry party this month, that also means another fight." Alexis stated smartly.

Her and the girls were going to yet again, another party! They see a pattern, every party they go to, there's a fight. But they are fighting with the boys, so they really don't have anyone to protect them this time.

"Who knows? We could be the ones whose going into the fight." Leanna shrugged as she poured herself a drink, "Y'all want one?"

"Don't jinx it, and yes." Maryjane answered.

———

"I didn't know Mary was so good at cup pong." Alexis said to Roselyn as they watched their make the small ball into the cup.

"Mary always had a small party animal inside of her." Roselyn shrugged, "You should play next, live a little."

"Imma pass, I don't even have aim." Alexis laughed as she disagreed.

"That can't be true." Roselyn shook her head.

"I was trying to hit with a ball, I was in front of you, it hit the wall." Alexis explained.

Leanna laughed as she spit some of her drink out, "Damn, you fucking suck!"

Alexis rolled her eyes, "Gee, thanks for this useless information."

Leanna gave a fake smile, "No problem."

Maryjane aimed the ball into the last cup, the people surrounding was silent, but it was still loud from the other people attending the party. The ball was shot in the air, it felt like forever until it landed into the cup.

"That's my bitch!" Carla shouted as she hugged Maryjane.

Maryjane looked over to the other side the table, "Beat that, motherfucker!"

"My turn."

A boy, more like a group of people stepped through the small crowd of people. Maryjane and girls gasped, it was Daniel's and his friends.

Alexis' immediately darted to Corbyn. He wasn't even looking at her. Usually Corbyn would stare and stare, he wouldn't even care if he got caught. What's up with Corbyn?

"Get the cups ready, also, Seavey," Maryjane looked at Daniel, "You're going down."

"Let's make a bet." Daniel said out of the blue.

"That is?" Carla asked?

"The winning group gets to get whatever they need or what from the losing group, for a two weeks." Jack devilishly smirked.

"You're on." Leanna agreed.

Alexis stood there, just watching. She didn't know what to do or say. The people she cared for a lot, won't even look at her. That hurts. Every laugh, every smile, every tear, every fight, every joke, every wound, every bandage, all that didn't even matter, now.

Leanna went over to Alexis, "He wants to look at you."

Alexis looked at her, "Huh?"

"Corbyn." She answered, "His eyes keep everywhere, but you. What I've learned, you try your best to avoid that person, but you slowly fall for them."

Alexis furrowed her eyebrows, "What do you mean by, slowly fall for them?"

"Corbyn is falling in live with you." Leanna answered.

"No, no, Corbyn said he loves me, not he's in love with me. Yeah sure, he probably had small feelings for me, but that isn't in love. Like is for a small amount of time. Love is like friendships and family. In love is forever and those feelings never go away." Alexis rambled quickly, her face turning red from blushing.

"Then why does he look at you longingly and he wants to be with you and only you?" Leanna asked as she pointed over at Corbyn.

Alexis followed her finger. Corbyn was looking dear straight at her. Corbyn's head turned to the other direction, now he looks away.

"He just can't." Alexis muttered, "He can't love or even like someone, like me."
