Samantha
Kimberly talks away while tossing her hair back. She sits in the passenger's seat of my car, unaware that I completely lost track of our conversation and haven't paid attention to her. She continues rattling away and giggling, reminiscing about her past events this summer when she went to Cancun with her family. She loves going to Cancun, bathing in the sun, going shopping. But I think she mainly likes going there because of Tiago, a guy she met a few years ago. He's dreamy, and yes they always spend summers together, though she says they are nothing but friends.
I drove steady down the road, and stared out the window as I come to a halt at the red light, pensive and nostalgic.
It's been three years since I last saw my ex-boyfriend, and I feel like I'm somewhat ready for a new relationship. But it's so hard, especially when all my dates have been nothing but a bust. Thus, was the reason why I was annoyed with my friend at the moment. She set me up into going out a few nights ago, on a double-blind date. Now, the guy she set me up with keeps blowing up my phone nonstop despite me telling him I was not interested in him.
The whole night had been nothing but torture for me. I've never met any guy more self-absorbed than Lucas Faye. He stared at himself through anything that had a reflection. He played with his hair every chance he got and got mad at me when I accidentally spilled some of my drink on his jeans. I hated every minute of it.
Kimberly snaps her fingers in front of me, bringing me out of my pensive state.
"Hello, Sam? Come on, go, you have a green light. " She purses her lips and gives me a cheeky smile.
I sigh, my hands grip the steering wheel as I unhinged my foot from the brake, pulling it up, and placing my foot down gently on the gas pedal to continue my journey to our new school.
"Please tell me you're not still thinking about the other night? I said I was sorry. How was I supposed to know that Lucas was a complete douche?" She shrugs her shoulders and giggles mischievously. I roll my eyes and hit her shoulder playfully as we come to another stop sign. "Oh, God, please don't mention that guy to me. Or any other man for all that matters. I'm so done with dating, I swear." I nodded and closed my eyes.
"Sweetheart, you gotta get over Craig and give another guy a chance, it's been three years already for God's sake. I get it, he was the love of your life, but he was an a-hole. I was just trying to get you to have some fun! Meet new people, trust me-"
"Oh god no, Kim? I'm over him, I've been over him! And I do. Want to meet someone else... It's just, I don't think I've found anyone yet that is good enough to, you know..." She nods and looks unbelieved with her friend.
"Rock your world. But, why? I mean, come on? You are beautiful and smart, I've seen men drooling over you all the time. Yet, you are not even aware of it, Sam! There are so many good guys out there, you gotta stop being so picky babe." Kimberly scolds me.
