Chapter 5: I'm SO not jealous!

Katrine POV

No, no, no, no!

How could, Ingrid of all people, be the one someone chooses before me!?

That is not how it works! 

Before today, every guy we've ever met has always chose me!

It's all that stupid pale purple dress's fault.

If he had seen what Ingrid normally wore, he'd forget about her in a flash!

And he was cute!

If he was some loser nobody, I wouldn't give a rats ass if he hit on Ingrid.

But he was really, really cute!

With brown curls and hazel eyes!

The blonde was not bad, but I don't want to date the sidekick.

UGH. whatever. I'm SO not jealous!

Plus it's so not like her to call him. She probably thinks he's actually an old man who got plastic surgery.

"Get in the car" I can't help but be snarky. 

"I'm in, I'm in!" Ingrid shrieks, throwing her hands up to the blue, cloudless sky.

We're sitting in Ingrid's fancy brand old looking car. It's a convertible so there is no roof.

Ingrid calls it retro, but it looks like something from a black and white movie.

It costs more than a few hundred thousand dollars.

Ingrid's dad is rich, rich rich. She doesn't look rich but she is! Well, she lives with her mum but her dad has bought her thousands of cars. She even has a Ferrari, which she never drives. She prefers her collection of Volkswagen Beetles, and mega expensive 'retro' cars.

She always complains that her dad just buys her so many things to make up for the lost time. 

Ingrid's parents got a divorce when she was young and she didn't know her father until she was 13 years old. Which was 4 years ago.

I know she's just saying that.

She loves the luxury, the fancy food, the beach houses, the goddamn private islands.

My family is pretty rich too. I even own a hot pink Lamborghini!

We're just not as rich as ingrid's dad. But nobody would ever guess that.

"So how many dates have you got tonight?" Ingrid asks nervously, twirling a strand of her blonde hair. Lucky bitch. Nice natural colour.

"Ummm, a few. But the one with Jason is the last" I lie. It's the last AND the first.

"So will you pick me up?" She knows she's offended me, so it's kinda risky asking me to do her a favour. But I love risks.

"Ha! Um, sure!" I say tossing my hair.  

"Awesome, thanks!" she smiles a bit and looks at me.

"Eyes on the road!!" I giggle.

****************************************************************

Back at my house, I start to get ready for my date.

Both of my parents are at a work expo in new York.

But they wouldn't really care if I went out clubbing at 11 on a Friday night.

I have an older brother,Ash, but he's probably out with his girlfriends, while checking out guys. He says he's not gay but it's so obvious.

And he has like 6 girlfriends. He does not have the personality of a player, so the only way he could  keep that up without getting heartbroken, is because he likes guys, not girls. 

I put on the leopard print dress, and a pair of black and gold high heels.

I put on mascara and red lipstick. 

I look ah-mazing!

*Ding dong*

Running up to the modern glass double door, I pull them open and standing there all hot and cute is Jason!

He eyes me up and down. "You look super hot. Let's get going!" he smirks and winks.

I forget all about my worries, like what if guys will stop liking me and start liking Ingrid.

Ingrid and the curly haired boy can go eff them selves.

I am SO not jealous!
