The Quirky Tale Of How My Best Friend And I Fell In Love

Chapter 1 - Sucker

Chapter 1 - Sucker

"I'm a sucker for you, yeah,
I've been dancing on top of cars and stumbling out of bars.
I follow you through the dark, can't get enough.
You're the medicine and the pain, the tattoo inside my brain.
And, baby, you know it's obvious.
I'm a sucker for you."

I slam my hand on my alarm clock.
Fuck me, after having almost 2 months off school it's time to go back.
But I have to admit,waking up to the Jonas Brother is the best way to start the day.
God, I'm so happy that they ended up back together again!

I slowly get out of bed and start trudging to my bathroom missing the warmth of my bed immediately. I have a quick shower, wrap a towel around me and go to my wardrobe.

What shall I wear today?
It's my first day of my Senior year and I don't want to seem too slutty but I also don't want to look like I just rolled out of bed and not had a shower for 8 days straight!

After a few minutes of contemplating, I pick out a long blue short sleeve maxi dress that has white swirls all over it. I pair the dress with some white converse. I chuck on a necklace and some cute stud earrings.
Perfect, casual but cute at the same time!
I quickly brush my long dark brown hair and throw it up into a messy bun.
I don't like having a full cake face of makeup on so I just quickly put on some mascara and lip balm.

I run down the stairs to see my dad cooking some eggs and bacon.
"Hey Lexie, Are you ready for your first day as a Senior?" He greeted while flipping over the bacon.

"Ehhhh, yeah I guess." I reply.
After getting the coffee cups out, I pour both my Dad and I each a cup of coffee. Usually Harry, my younger bother of two years joins us but he decided to stay at a friends house.

"Is Hunter pick you and Vanessa up?" My dad asks as if he already new the answer.

He shuffles some eggs onto my plate and then his. He does the same with the bacon. We both sit down and eat our breakfast quietly making conversation.

"Yep, I was going to offer to drive but he wants to roll up in his new car.
His parents brought him a new car for his 18th last Month. I haven't been in it yet but he sent me all these photos of it, I'm pretty sure he's in love with his car." I laugh.
Hunter, Vanessa and I have been friends for as long as I can remember. When we were 4 we just started going to Pre school together. Hunter kept on throwing crayons at me and one of them hit me straight in the head. Hunter started laughing and was getting glares from Vanessa.
I barely knew Vanessa but then she started yelling at Hunter because throwing Crayons hurt people and said that he should apologise. Hunter refused and ran away to join the other children.
Two days after that incident Hunter came up to me and said he was really sorry and hugged me. From then on the three of us have been best friends.

A honking noise interrupts my thinking, that must be Hunter.
I skull the rest of my coffee and place the cup in the sink.
I say my goodbyes to Dad, grabbed my school bag and practically ran out of the door. I wave at Hunter as he was sitting in his brand new car.
"Get In, Lexie! Otherwise we'll be late and you know how Van gets, she doesn't like to be late." He yelled. I slid into the passenger side of the car.

"Geez! No Hi Lexie it's nice to see you, How are ya?" I reply with a sarcastic smile and a slight laugh

"Fine, Hi Lexie, It's nice to see you, How are ya?" He repeated.

"I'm good thank you very much! But wow, Your car is almost a beautiful as what it looked like in the photos you sent me."

"I know, it's a Mercedes-Benz C class 250, I named her Becky"

"You named your car?" I ask trying my best not to laugh.

"Of course Lexie, a beautiful girl like this needs a pretty name."
