Sour Romance [ON HOLD]

Chapter 16

*20/01/2015*

Lavanya's POV

"Phew, exams are finally over. HIGH SCHOOL IS OVER" My friend Mai shouted.

"Well, over if you pass your exams" I deadpanned at her.

"Ughhh, why do you always have to be so pessimistic ,Lava?", my other friend Gina exclaimed.

I rolled my eyes. "I'm not being pessimistic, I'm being realistic, it's different"

Mai and Gina eyed me suspiciously both chewing on their salads.

"OK. Enough school talk. I have a scoop for you girls." Gina said taking the pompous air she always does when she successfully bullies the nerds, that is when she used to bully people.

"Spit" Mai and I said at the same time.

"Well, the Jonas Woods is throwing a party in his mansion this Saturday and he invited me." She said finishing with an excited clap.

"WHAT??? REALLY??? I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU." Mai exclaimed.

"Great" I deadpanned.

"What do you mean happy for me? Be happy for us cuz..
he said I could bring as many friends as I wish"

She finished excited again. I swear, this girl is a ball of energy.

Like seriously, what's there to be excited about? Dancing indecent dances with a bunch of other hormonal teenagers? No, thanks. I find it very uncomfortable and awkward, I tried once and I swore never to try again.

"WHAT, REALLY? OH MY GOSH, IF IT'S A DREAM I NEVER WANT TO WAKE UP!" Mai exclaimed.

"Great" I deadpanned once more and resumed chewing after my pizza.

"Great? That's all you have to say? When the hottest boy in town just invited us to one of his parties, which are the most sought after parties in the whole of New York? Oh my God, I even heard Justin Beiber was going to be there. Aaaa"

"Great" I said once more.

"Okay. There's no time to waste. We have to start preparing ourselves right now." Gina said looking more determined than I had ever seen her to solve a maths question.

"Why? The party is only tomorrow." I said raising my brow in question.

"Yeah, which means we have a little more than 24hrs to get ready which is wayyy too small for such a big event." Mai said.

I gave them a 'like seriously?' look.

"Girls, even brides don't take that much time to get ready." I said.

"Whatever. We're going shopping tomorrow first thing. But how about our own little pajama party this night?" Gina said.

"OK" both Mai and I answered excitedly. Now these are the kind of parties I like.

"You guys must have been pretty close, huh?" Sofia said with a lot of sympathy in her eyes. The same sympathy present in every other person's at that table eyes.

"Yea- yea we were" Lavanya said tears brimming in her eyes, as she remembered the horrid events that occurred that day, the

Lavanya's POV

"NO. I'M NOT WEARING THAT" I said scowling at the mosquito net my friends dared to call a dress.

"Oh, come on, you'll look sexy in it... for once" She said wiggling her brows.
