Wake up already! I say, as I look over at Seattle. I search around and see that Marsh, Priscilla, Lexi and Ross weren't here. Where could they have gone? The room felt empty and filled with silence. I hated this feeling.
I get up to go to the bathroom and brush my teeth. As I was doing so my phone vibrated in my pocket. It was a text from my mom. Only she would text me at 8 in the morning. I rolled my eyes annoyingly and read the message:
Hey honey, I know it's early, but I was wondering if you would like to come home today for 2 weeks. Its for the family reunion. Your dad and I can't wait to see you! Love ya.
************************
Great. I don't want to go home for the family reunion. We do it every year and I just wish I could just. not. go. I open the bathroom door and look at myself in the mirror. My hair is all over the place. I laugh at myself.Seattle woke up. "My head is killing me" she says as she yawns.
"That's what you get for drinking a bottle of vodka" I reply while laughing.
She gives me a serious look. "What?!", I say smirking.
I take the towel which is on top of a pile of laundry. "We need to do the laundry Seattle." I say as I turn on the hot water in the bathtub. She doesn't reply. I close the door and lock it.
I step in the tub and feel goosebumps go through my body. I love the feeling when its cold outside and you get in the showers as the hot water hits you. You get this kinda comforting feeling. I relax and let the water run as I lye down...
Moments later I hear a knock on the door.
"You went in the bathroom to live there!" Seattle shouts sarcastically.
"I'm almost done," I shout. I grab the towel and put on my bunny slippers as I open the door.
"Finally" Seattle says as she enters.
I lay on my bed with my towel still on. I'm a big procrastinator when I come out of the showers. Don't ask why.
I grab my phone from the shelf. Omg , its so cold.
I have to think about this whole family reunion thing. I mean like, I want to go but I don't want to leave Cate and my friends. But I never have time to spend it with my family. Besides my birthday is in 2 weeks and they'll probably give me gifts. Eeek. I love gifts.
I text my mom :
Hey mom I thought it over and I made my decision.
Im going to the family reunion! Im leaving tomorrow
At 2 in the afternoon. I can't wait to see you! Bye~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I grab my dress that I got from aeropostale. It has a design of shapes.
Hmm what should I choose, heels or flats? Heels! Lol, I'm joking, I would probably fall and injure myself badly. Flats it is! I grab my flats and put them on.Now... About this hair, I grab my brush and comb it until I feel softness. My hair gets so knotty that its so annoying. I make a fishtail braid which was a real struggle.
I grab my keys and head out to the store to get some beer for me. I'm not a drinker but I just feel like I need some beer.
After I get the beer, I go to the dorm to drink it. When I come back. I see that Seattle isn't here. Where could have she gone ? She is always randomly going places.
I place the beer on the table and get one. I hope I don't get drunk. I sip some and then gulp the rest. I was done with it really fast. I grab another one and gulp that one down too. In 20 minutes I finish the last beer of the pack.
As I get up to throw it away I feel the room going upside down. My whole body feels heavy. I laugh awkwardly for no reason. I'm drunk.
I fall down to the floor.....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I wake up with a pounding headache.
Omg what time is it? I get up from the floor and search for my phone when I get it, the time was 5:30. In the front screen I saw a message from my mom. I tap on it and it reads :
That's great news hunny, we are too excited to see you.
We love you!I call drake to tell him that I'm leaving. He doesn't pick up. He hasn't talked to me in days. What the heck is he up to?
I decide to go to his dorm. I walk since it's only a few blocks away. I arrive at his dorm and I knock. A girl opens with only a towel wrapped around her.
"Who are you ?!"She says in a disgusted voice.
"Um... The real question here is who are you and why are you naked in my boyfriends dorm!" I say in a angrily form.
As soon as she was about to respond, drake came out of his room with his underpants only.
"What the fuck is going on here drake?!" I scream at him.
The girl starts to cry. Why is she crying? Isn't she like 18?
"I think you should go" drake says
"Are you seriously kicking me out ?!" I say in shock
Yes, its over we are breaking up". He says in a low voice.
"Fine! You know what you can stay here with this one you jerk!" I scream so loud I lose my voice.
The days we spent together and the times he said i love you were all a lie.
I start crying as I walk to my dorm. What a jerk. Once I get to my dorm I lye down on my bed. I spend so many hours just looking up at the ceiling, thinking why he would do that to me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I push myself to get up and pack my things for tomorrow. I throw some random stuff in there and finish quickly. All there is left for me to do is just sleep. I snuggle in my bed and go to sleep.
I have to look out for myself. Life isn't always easy and I need to understand that. Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day. I need to forget today and that jerk. One day I will find someone that will truly love me. Until that day comes, I have to learn who I am and what I want to be for the rest of my life.
I close my eyes and a teardrop falls from my face. Happiness, I whisper to myself......
