70 Days Of Summer

Day 24

I wake up at 12 pm, my head buzzing with the thoughts of last night. I groan and grab my phones. 5 missed calls from paige. 6 missed calls from Catalina. 3 missed Calls from larry. 9 missed calls from Berun. Shit! I check my texts and one from each of them.
Berun:
Call me! Pick up! Where are you???😨
Paige:
Omg! Where are you??? I hv gr8 news bout Bryan and I. Call me.
Catalina:
Dude! I think I'm getting engaged.
Larry:
We need to talk. Call me when your free.
Ugh! Why is there so much drama in my life? I don't want to listen to another one of Paige's love stories! I don't want to hear about which guy Catalina hooked up with and asked to marry her and she was so hungover she said yes! I don't want to talk to larry about last night! I definitely don't want to see Berun and tell him about last night and feel guilty and break his heart! I don't even want to get out of bed! I think God hates me? Just at that moment my phone starts ringing. The ID caller is:
BERUN
I sigh and pick up the phone.
"H-h-hey," I stutter in the phone, scared incase larry has already told Berun about the kiss. They do compete against each other in football tournaments. They are faintly acquainted.
He lets out a big sigh, and says,
" hey baby! Oh thank god your safe! I was so worried last night...and....and today. I couldn't find you and I tried calling and you didn't pick up and I thought something happened to you. Your safe now and that's all that matters."
Awwww. He was worried.
" yah, ummmmmm, sorry. I was so tired and it was too loud so I just left early. To my home, and my phone was on silent and I went straight to bed,"I fib.
" well, as long as your alright. Listen, do you want to meet up for coffee or something?," he asks.
"I'm actually not feeling too well," I lie letting out a fake cough.
" well then I'll come over," he says.
Before I have a chance to protest he hangs up. I'm about to get changed and clean up when I notice someone standing on the doorstep. Larry! Shit! I jump out of bed and run down the stairs. I kick the door open and scream,
" what are you doing?"
He starts to reply but I drag him inside incase Berun is here.
He chuckles and says,
" so you liked last night huh?"
He leans into kiss me but I push him away and demand,
" what are you doing here?"
" well, I followed you home last night and I've been waiting outside since! Listen, no one can find out we kissed ok? Monique would kill me and I still need to break up with Catalina," he says ferociously.
" that's fine! I wasn't going too tell anyone," I say. The doorbell rings and I freeze. Shit! What if that's Berun? Calm down!
" who is-" larry starts to ask but I open the door and his jaw drops to the floor.
" hey! I brought chickens soup," exclaims Berun smiling and then frowning when he sees larry.
" what is going on?" Berun demands, walking in and dropping his chicken soup on the table.
" sorry, I meant, what is he doing here?" Berun demands extremely furious. Damn! I just realize that Larry and I still in our party clothes! Oh no! He probably thinks we.....ugh!
" did you guys make out? I mean your both in the party clothes and....and....I still don't get why he is here?" Berun shouts. We try to interject but he keeps talking. Finally, I say calmly,
" Berun. Calm down,please. This is not what you think......." Larry and I explain everything to Berun! I mean everything! We tell him about Larry cheating on Catalina, Catalina being a slut, me finding if larry was ok, larry kissing me, Larry following me home, and me feeling terrible.
" and that's how we ended up here," I finish explaining. Berun takes a deep breath and clarifies,
" so there's nothing going on between you?"
" nothing. I love you," I clarify, pulling Berun into a kiss. He kisses me back and Larry says awkwardly,
" I'm going to go."
" yah! You should," says Berun aggressively. Larry pretends to be scared, laughs, and leaves.
" I'm so sorry," I murmur into his shoulder.
" don't worry," he says planting a kiss on my lips. We lie on the couch for awhile kissing and then spend the rest of the day watching,
'My fair lady' while Berun spoons chicken corn soup in my mouth. I fall asleep during the movie and I wake up at 3 with a sticky note stuck to my forehead. It reads,
You look cute when your sleeping. Had to run. Sorry.
Love,
Berun
I clean up the bowls and shower and clean up and head over to Paige's house ready to face the wrath of Vanessa and Paige's extravagant love story. I reach Paige's apartment at 5 and Vanessa opens the door.
" hey. How was the spa?" Vanessa chirps. Spa? Oh, that must've been the cover up paige came up with. I guess Vanessa still thinks we slept over at Catalina's brother last night.
" relaxing," I reply quickly, rushing to Paige's room. Paige is lying on her bed a huge smile spread across her face and her phone in her hand.
" hey" she murmurs.
" hey" I say sitting next to her on the bed.
"Hey" she murmurs again giggling as she types on her phone. She doesn't even bother asking me where I was last night or what happened and she doesn't dive into her amazing love story. Does she even notice that Catalina isn't here??? Where is my paige and what happened to her???
" where is Catalina?" I ask.
" somewhere" paige replies dreamily giggling at a message on her phone. Oh my god! I can't take this anymore! I want my paige back! I grab her phone and she giggles as I read her chats. I glance at the person and it says Bryan and I read the texts. Oh my god! They are.....sex-ting!
" paige" I gasp as she grabs the phone and punches some words and sends them.
" we did it. Bryan and I. We did it," paige says softly. For some reason, I'm not very shocked.
" how was it?" I ask awkwardly.
" magical," she replies as if in a trance.
" did you use protection?" I ask lamely.
" of course" paige breathes.....falling asleep. While paige is sleeping, I notice that all of Catalina's stuff is gone. Huh? Oh right! Her parents came back this morning. I ring Catalina's cellphone and she picks up,
" hi" she murmurs sounding like paige. Don't tell me she did it too? But with who?
" hi. What's up?" I cheer. I hear male snoring in the background but isn't it 5:30 pm!
" Last night was amazing," she replies dreamily.
" what happened last night?" I ask getting cozy for another make our story.
" well, first Larry broke up with me. After a few hours at the party I went to my brothers house still not felling satisfied with the night. I was expecting to find him on the bed naked as we discussed but instead there was a box from Victoria's Secret. I open the box and find a red lace thong and bra set. I chuckle as I read the letter,
Change quickly. I'll be in the bed. Waiting.....
So I change and you know what happens next.....
The best part was after he.....proposed to me! I said yes and then we fell asleep and I went to pick up my bags from Paige's house and drop them home and see my parents and then I came back here and we had some more fun!" Paige explains in a soothing voice that sounds as if someone else has taken over her body.
This, I was not expecting!!
" Paige!" I scold in the phone.
" I know, I know. I know what you're thinking,
' this girl is out of her mind'
But I'm not out of my mind. I'm just....in love. Ok, I have to go! He's waking up and oh! Please skit fell anyone, we still want to figure this out! Not even paige,
Bye!" She explains and then hangs up. I drop my phone and think,
Are all my friends messed up? Wait! I know one friend who isn't messed up! I ring up Mary-Beth and she answers in her clipped yet sweet tone,
" good evening, you have reached Mary Beth. Who am I speaking to?"
Wow! It's hard to believe that's not an answering machine.
" hi Mary-Beth....its me, clara," I sat in the phone. Does she not have my number saved?
" of course I knew it was you clara, but I just had to make sure it's actually you, clara! There is so much cloning going on these days, but apparently you can tell an original from a replica by the voice. It's actually quite fascinating. We should meet up for tea one day and I can tell you all about it," mary-Beth exclaims in the phone.
" yah, wow, that would be wonderful. How about tomorrow?" I ask eagerly hoping she will say yes. I don't actually want to hear about cloning but I want to hang out with a friend who isn't.....perverted.
" oh! Tomorrow.....that's short notice but I can check my schedule," she says into the phone. I hear her murmuring in the background,
" brain teasers at 9, SAT practice at 12, karate at 4....hmmm." Wow, what a fun holiday! Math teasers and SAT practice and.....karate? I'd like to see her smack someone down!
She chirps in the phone,
" how about a late lunch at 2. I would do sooner but I have -"
" SAT practice" we recite together. Her voice chirping and mine boring.
" oh! Are you doing the Harvard SAT online study course also?" She asks eagerly.
" no" I say dully.
"Oh, well I have to go. Bye" she says cheerily.
" bye" I say non-chalantly, hanging up. Paige wakes up, smiles and says softly,
" Bryan!"
I punch her in the head and she goes back to sleep. The rest of the night plans out like us eating dinner and paige going to sleep and me playing with Yina and then going to sleep.
