Was It Fake?

Paintballing

Elaina's POV

I'm so fucking excited, I haven't done anything fun in a while. I've hung out with Amanda and Mariana before but that was sooooo long ago. I'm glad I took today off, I just really wish I wasn't nearly flashing the whole world.

"Have fun, there will be someone here in about 5 minutes to tell you guys the basics. " The woman at the front desk says.

"Okay thank you, you too-"

What the fuck?

Did I just???

I hear Mariana and Amanda start bursting out in laughter as I quickly walk to take a seat. Oh my fucking god. I did not just- UGGHHH. FUCK ME. THIS IS WHY I DONT GO OUT!

"That is so fucking embarrassing. Kill me. Please. Oh my god." I say covering my face with both my hands. Fuck meeeeeee.

"El, I can't- 'Thank you- you too' I CAN'T BREATHE!" Mariana says as I look up to see her holding her stomach as she laughs. I groan in frustration.

I wanna go home.

Amanda is squirming in her chair as her head tilts back laughing as well.

Fuck my life. This is so embarrassing. I need to breathe.

I see the sign for the bathroom and get up without saying anything. Kill me please.

I walk into a stall and just stand there. "You too? REALLY??" I say thinking out loud. "This. Is why I don't go out- UGHHHH" I say facepalming myself. After a while of overthinking absolutely everythingggg, I walk out of the bathroom and back to where we were waiting before. Kill me. Mariana and Amanda aren't there, even the guys from our school aren't here, where the fuck did they go? I pull out my phone to text them.

Mari💓💋: Enter through the door that says Field on it, it's right next to where you were sitting earlier

I look around and find the door she was talking about sliding my phone back into my bag. The hallway is kind of creepy and dark but I'm really excited, I love paint balling. I start to hear Amanda and Mariana talking and laughing together.

"He's so much hotter in person, I'd kill to even be one of his sleeping buddies, I mean have you seen those a-" Mariana jumps up and stops rambling as she sees me walk in.

"Jesus fucking shit. You dumb bitch, I thought you were somebody else." She sighs in relief.

"I'd suggest you lower your voice, that easily could've been someone else," I say shaking my head. "Who are you even going on about? Is it the guys that were behind us in line? I'm pretty sure they go to Cambilla too."

"Yessss-my god. I think they are friends with Santiago, do you think he's here?" Amanda says biting her lip.

"Hopefully, cause phew- I'm willing to-" Mariana stops as soon as we hear some steps in the hallway. After a couple of seconds we see a man walk in, he looks like he could be 20 something.

"Hello ladies, my name is Mohan, I'm gonna be going over some things to keep in mind before bringing you your gear. Just making sure you know how to use the paintball gun, rules in the field, how to win, ect. This shouldn't take too long, have any of you guys been paint balling before?" He asks.

"Yeah, we have. It's just our first time in this one," Amanda says playing with her hair. Is she crushing on Mohan?

"Oh, well that's great. I'll quickly go over some stuff then, just making sure you guys are ready to go. We actually have another group of people who are ready but they have 4 players so we might need to get someone to fill in." He says with a small smile.
