love of my life

Halloween part 2

There was no other option. She was dressed like me. I could recognize the shirt and pants from my closet, paired with my signature converse. She even added fake glasses and a brown curly wig. Why the hell would she dress like me? I walked over to her and stood dumbfounded until she noticed me.

"Oh hey, Maria! Here, I brought the knife you wanted. Turns out I didn't have a stage knife so I just brought a real one but it's in this protective covering that I covered in blood so that no one would get hurt."

She handed me the knife and I took it, still staring at the costume. Finally, I couldn't take it any longer and screamed,

"What the hell is your costume? Why are you dressed like me? Did you steal my clothes or something?"

"Ahhh so you understand my costume! Don't worry Maria you can get the clothes after tonight."

"Emma that's not the issue! You stole my clothes! You're dressed like me! Why?"

"I just thought it would be a fun little surprise for your first high school Halloween party! You should take it as a compliment. You're my greatest inspiration."

I didn't understand what was happening. The only thought that was going through my head was why does she look better than me in my clothes. I didn't know what to answer, but I was saved by Jimin who came up and put his arm around my shoulder, momentarily distracting me from the sight of who I was slowly realizing, was my biggest stalker.

"Wow, Emma. That's quite a costume."

"Why thanks Jimin!"

"So why did you choose to dress up as Maria?"

"Well, it's my way of saying that-"

Before she could finish her sentence, Isa grabbed the knife in my hand and handed it back to Emma, before gripping my arm and pulling me and Jimin onto the dancefloor. She pulled me close to her and yelled over the music,

"Was Emma dressed as you?"

"Yeah, I don't know why either. But I think I need a drink to get over that sight."

I didn't need to tell Isa twice. She grabbed Baby and Jimin, who has somehow gotten into the worst break-dancing battle I had ever seen, and we made our way to the drinks table. She poured the vodka into the glass and before she could grab the orange juice, I downed the entire glass. Jimin saw and said,

"Damn weird girl! What's gotten into you?"

"I don't know. There's something weird about Emma and I just want to forget her for the night because I have a bad feeling."

Jimin seemed to agree with my answer and proceeded to down his glass. The next two hours were a blur of dancing and drinking, Jimin always standing close to me. I couldn't believe that after two years he was there, dancing and talking with me like friends. It was a dream come true. I knew the vodka had reached my brain because I suddenly found myself grabbing Jimin's hand and heading to a less populated section of the back yard. He followed me without questions, probably thinking we were getting another drink. Once we got to a secluded spot, I turned to him and said,

"Look Jimin, it's no secret that I like you. I've kind of been dreaming about fucking you for the past two years. And now, I feel like I have a shot so you're gonna have to forgive me but I am way too drunk to be making reasonable decisions."

And I grabbed his face and kissed him. Holy fucking god. My lips were on his lips. And not only was I kissing him, but he was kissing me back. I couldn't believe it, but I suddenly stopped thinking when his arms linked around my waist and pulled me closer to his body. I put my arms around his neck and started threading my fingers through his hair. This was nothing like the "making-out" sessions from second grade. This was intense, and getting hotter and hotter by the second. Jimin suddenly picked me up and wrapped my legs around his waist, which caused me to gasp in his mouth. He carried me to a small stone fence and placed me on it, his lips never letting go of mine. I was about to wrap my legs around his when suddenly I felt his body being ripped away from mine. I opened my eyes to see Maya, Emma's ex-girlfriend, looking furious.

"There you are Maria, I thought I saw a selfish whore going this way."

I didn't have time to be embarrassed about the fact that I just been caught with Jimin because my brain went immediately into fight mode at the insult.

"Excuse me? I don't know what the fuck you're talking about but you need to leave me the hell alone."

"You heard me, whore. How dare you ruin my relationship and then go around Emma's back to be with this loser."

Jimin stood there, not knowing what to do. It was probably for the best because I was out for blood at this point.

"What the hell are you talking about? I never got between you and Emma and I didn't go around her back about anything. I am my own person if you haven't noticed."

"Don't play dumb."

"I'm not playing! In this situation, I truly am dumb."

"Emma told me that she couldn't be with me because you two were in love, and now you're cheating on her with Jimin! She may no longer love me, but I still love her and I don't want her to be hurt."

"What the fuck? Emma's off her chain if she thinks I love her! I didn't even know she liked me! I just thought she missed her sister and was hanging out with me to make up for it or something."

"Oh yeah? Well, why would she dress like you then?"

"Look, Maya, you have to believe me. I didn't even know she was going to dress like me. I never tried to get between the two of you. I even told Emma that I was into Jimin so I have no idea where she got the idea that I loved her."

Jimin, who had been standing quietly to the side watching the fight, suddenly started smiling like an idiot. A cute idiot. He looked at me and said,

"You like me?"

I turned to him and practically yelled,

"Didn't we already talk about this? Yes, I fucking like you."

He only rolled his eyes and kissed me again, before I pushed away and said,

"Um, can we do this later? I'm kind of in the middle of something."

I glanced at Maya who still looked angry as hell and Jimin understood. He pulled away and walked away. I watched him leave for a bit, admiring the way his cute buns moved with each step. Maya then snapped her fingers in front of my face, bringing me back to reality and the most confusing conversation of my life. She said,

"Uh, Maria? What are you going to do about Emma?"

"I don't know, but I'm telling you I have no idea where she got the idea that I loved her."

I don't know what Maya had to say at this affirmation, and I never would because I felt the worst pain of my life in my back, and the last thing I remember before dropping to the floor was Maya's scream. Then everything went black.
