Is It Really Worth the Fight?

"Oohhhh SHIT!"

Here I am, once again, at a typical Matthew Espinosa party. This party was the "summer blowout" party. School starts in a week, sadly. Sometimes they can be fun, sometimes they can be kind of lame. It all depends on who shows up and who doesn't.

"Hey hottie, want a drink?" I looked to my right to see a blonde girl grabbing my side trying to pull me close to her.

"I'm fine," I say. "I driving anyways." I gently peeled her off my side and walked to a circle my friends were sitting in.

"Naaassshhhhhh!" A couple people greeted me in unison.

"Hey, what are you guys playing?" Matt and Cameron scoot over to let me join the circle.

"Drinking games dude." Matt responded.

I look across the circle and see the most beautiful girl I think I've ever seen. Her hair was a perfect silky chestnut color and her eyes were possibly blue-er than mine. If that's even possible. She had these perfect freckles scattered so delicately across her cheeks. And her lips, oh my god her lips, looked so soft and so exquisite.

She turned her head and looked right at me and noticed I was watching her. I felt my face get warm, but I didn't take my eyes off of her.

The girl next to her made her laugh so hard she had to hold her stomach. I want her to be mine. She will be mine.

Sometimes I really dread Matt's parties, but not this time. You did well Matt, you did well.

"Okay! Who's down for some spin the bottle, AYYEEEE!" Matt looked around at everybody in the circle and everybody had a hand raised.

We spun the bottle and people kissed, you know, the usual. I really need for my spin to land on her.

"Nash, you're turn." Cameron handed me the empty wine cooler and I looked straight at the girl and spun.

It landed on Ellie, the girl sitting NEXT to her.

I leaned forward to kiss Ellie and kept my eyes open so I could wink at her beautiful eyes. There she goes, giggling again. God it's so cute.

"Cam," I whispered after I finished my turn. "I need that girl across from me. How can I get her?"

He turned his head to look at me and smirked. "Dude, just use your charm. Your charisma. Your Grier magic. You can do it."

My Grier magic, huh. I guess I can use that.

After the game was over, I noticed another girl walk up to her and tap her shoulder.

"Hey, you ready to go home?" the girl standing questioned.

"Yes!" she quickly stood up, said her goodbyes to Ellie, and walked off.

I jumped up and calmly ran after her. After I caught up, I tapped her shoulder to get her attention. She spun around slowly, but gracefully, swinging her hair around along with her body. She was so gorgeous.

"Uh," I stammerd. "I- I uh, I'm sorry. Nevermind." I shoved my hands in my jean's pockets and shrugged.

"Okay, no problem!" She chuckled and looked at her friend. "See ya later!" And with that, she walked off.

So much for my so called 'Grier magic'.
