Cranberry Vodka (Billie Eilish)

Two weeks later on my way to school, I came across Kacper who seemed like he was waiting for someone with a flower in his hands. Now I knew why he never called. He's already found someone else. He smiled at me and greeted me, but I walked past him, ignoring him just like he ignored me the past two months.

"Wait Casey" He yelled and ran after me. "I, uh I got you this flower." I finally stopped and turned to face him. Why would he get me a flower?

"What do you want?" I asked annoyed. "I'm sorry I haven't reached out to you earlier, but I do now, don't I?" I remained silent. "I booked a table for us, after school. Do you wanna come?" I couldn't believe he was inviting me on a date. Where did that come from?

"After school?" Why would he bring me on a date directly after school when I'd still have school stuff on!?

"Yes, it's the only time possible. I'm already hanging out with my boys in the evening, but I I have shoveled extra time off for you." He smiled.

I took my time but ended up agreeing, maybe he had a lot on his plate before and is ready to go out with me now. Besides that, he was cute as hell, so why would I say no?

On our way to school, he suddenly took my hand. I tensed up. As soon as he saw his friends he seemed to smile proudly. He then let go of my hand, gave me a quick kiss on the lips, and walked away, saying "See you, babe".

‚Fuck' I thought and I sprinted over to my best friends Normani and Lauren.

"Bitch what up?" Lauren greeted me.

"I just had my first kiss with a boy," I spilled out immediately.

"WHAT? Bitch. With who? How was It?" Lauren asked excitedly.

"I thought it's gonna be more magical to be honest."

"Aww baby, we all thought that"," Normani pitied  me.

„Yeah," Lauren agreed. „My first kiss was so bad, that I thought I was gay, for 2 months straight," she laughed.

„No for real, your kiss is not important, what really matters is the first kiss that means something. If you have feelings for someone you kiss, girl that's a whole new level," Normani daydreamed.

„She's right, so you probably don't like like  that person you just kissed, wait, who was it?"

"Do you remember what I told you a few time ago about Kacper's and mine Snapchat conversation?"

"Yeah, for sure I do, he tells you he loves you, over fucking text and asks you out only to pretend it never happened," Lauren said.

"I think he got back together with his ex or something." Normani pondered.

"What?!" I said shook. "I just agreed to go on a date with him, and then he kissed me" I admitted.

"What the fuck, he is the one you kissed?" .

„Yeah. Look, he even got me this flower," I proudly showed off  the single rose he got me. To be honest, it now looked kind of sad, at the edge of dying, like it was desperately in the need for water.

"Well, then forget what I said about him getting back together with his ex, I don't know anything about him, that was probably just a rumor or something," Normani said enthusiastically.

"I don't know, but he just came to talk to me and then he took my hand and kissed me on the fucking lips, I said rapturously. Normani screamed in joy, but Lauren looked at me in disbelieve.

"Did you forget how disappointed you were when he wouldn't even look at you after he sent that message?"

"He was drunk"
