Just to note that Precious & her friends in this story hardly ever drink, at this party none of them drink, mostly because they are smart enough to know what will happen if they do. Now I, in real life, have seen what that can do to people physically & mentally. .
When a couple of more songs passed we stopped dancing & went straight to the kitchen and basically raided Cindy's fridge & pantry. Oh fucking well, you want to have a party & put shitty ass snacks that didn't even last an hour, yeah I'm gunna at your food Bitch!!!
"Hey, we're gunna go back in there, you wanna come?" Vic asks nodding his head toward the living room.
"Nah, I think I'm just gunna get some air. But you guys have fun." I say as I walk toward the sliding glass door.
"You sure" They both ask at the same time with concern well heard in their voices.
"Yes, I'm fine, trust me." I giggle a little. I open the door, stepping outside & feeling the night air brush past my face. I shut the door behind me, then I close my eyes & take a deep breath. When I open my eyes I can see that I am not alone as I spot several different couples all in different sections. Okay then, I'll just be on my single way now. As I start to walk a little more outside, I spot the pool, & nobody is near it, perfect!!
As soon as I get there I sit down kind of by the edge, I pull my chucks off, quickly slide off my thigh high socks, & scoot closer to the pool and slowly put my feet in, so I can get used to the coldness of the water. Now I'm just thinking about everything that's right and wrong in my life. I think about how this is our last year ever going to High School together, what if Vic & Cole forget me when they go off to college and find another girl who's more amazing than I am. I think about my own future & how for all of my life I wanted to (& still do) be an actress, singer/song writer, & dancer. I know all of those are long shots, but I know I can do it as long as I believe in myself & work as hard as I can. Right?
I sigh a little & lay down so I'm now facing the dark sky filled with some stars. I start to sing quietly to myself (Photograph by Ed Sheeran),
'we keep this love in a photograph
we made these memories for ourselves
where our eyes are never closing
hearts are never broken
and time's forever frozen still
so you can keep me
inside the pocket of your ripped jeans
holding me closer 'till our eyes meet
you won't ever be alone, wait for me to come home'
"God I suck.." I say to myself, laying on my back, still with my feet in the water, & put my hands over my face.
"I don't think you suck."...........
