How I Fell For You

Chapter 2

        It was four o’clock when I went to pick up my suit at the dry cleaners. Only two hours to get ready and get there. I hopped into my car and remembered that I needed to buy new cuff links. I drove to the nearest store that sold them and got really nice golden ones, they weren’t made of actual gold of course. After that I went home to get ready. By the time was putting my shoes on to leave my mom called to tell me to hurry up. I made sure I looked nice, I liked to look nice.

          Mom called me again to ask if I could pick Anna. I always called Anna my cousin even though she really wasn’t family. Our mothers are best friends, so that’s why Anna and I consider ourselves family since we’ve been together since diapers. I took the thruway to get her house. She lived fifteen minutes from me, we used to live next door to each other but then she had to move because her mom found a new neighborhood to live in. It was hard not to see her everyday but now we make plans at least four times a week.                               

          I pulled up to her house and walked to her door and ran the doorbell. "It's opened!" yelled Anna. I opened the door and walked in. "What's up bitch?" Anna asked. I laughed and said "Nothing, but I can see that you're still ugly as Shrek."

        She and I laughed for a good five minutes before we hugged each other. We walked up to her room. Anna was tall and very skinny for her age. She had brunette hair and blue eyes. Some of a straight guy's dream girl. She wore very short jean shorts and a white top with holes by her shoulders.

        When we got to her room Anna went to her walk in closet to change and I sat at her desk. She didn't care if I saw her naked since she knew I wouldn't enjoy it but I still felt rude if I watched her. She left the door open and spoke but I couldn't see her. "So, how bad was the hangover?" She asked.

        "Damn, how do you know?" I asked back.  "Well there are these things called Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat." She said back. I sighed. "To answer an obvious question the hangover was bad. I got home unnoticed but when I woke up I got these texts from a guy named Jared, supposedly we met at the party and I gave him my number. I don't remember any of this. I hope I didn't hook up with him or do.. you know... the deed." I said back.

        Anna stuck her head out of the door with a "really" look on her face. "Boy, you have been fascinated by sex since you were what four. You were going through the channels back when cable was all we had and you watched two people having sex. Ever since then you've been sex crazed." She said. "Shut up before I come over there and tear all your dresses up." I said back. "Hey, I'm just speaking the truth. Anyways, I don't know of a Jared at our school. Sasha has to know who he is. No one enters that house without knowing the bitch." She said as she walked out. She continued. "Zip me."

        I did as asked. Anna walked to her vanity dresser to start applying make up. "I think you have a point. Maybe he's her cousin or something." I said. "I don't think so, she likes to keep her family separate from her friends." Anna said back.

        "God, I don't know. I think we should go see her after this event." I suggested. "Well you have fun with that, I'm not going anywhere near that place." Anna said. "Are you guys still fighting? Why?" I asked.

        "She took Andy from me and she posted a freaking picture of them kissing."

        "They were drunk when the picture was taken."

        "But she posted it while she was sober, so she can piss me off. She is a man stealing slut. She has had sex with all the boys in the school including Smelly Randy. You are the only boy she never had sex with. And that's because you like penises. And that's why I love you. Because now you'll never catch the STD's she has." She said as she applied her lipstick.

        I laughed. "And that's why I love you too." She laughed back and put on her necklace and turned to me. "Well how do I look?" She said and curtsied. "So Victoria Secret's fashion model." I joked. "I know" She said back

        "Come on let's go, we are going to be late because you took a long ass time" I said to her. She punched my shoulder. We went to my car and drove to the charity event.
