Chapter One
''Just tell me when its over, okay?' I demanded in a panicked voice, burying my face into Jayy's shoulder. Jayys high pitched, infectious laugh filled the living room and I found it impossible not to laugh at myself along with him.
'Sure, but I dunno what your so scared of! Its not real' He replied once he had recovered, wrapping his arm around me and squeezing my shoulder comfortingly.
'Ugh! I know its not real, I just don't like gore!' I shuddered at the thought of the blood and guts being thrown around on screen. Why? Out of all the movies we had, why had Jayy insisted on forcing me into watching this? The goriest film we owned, even though he knows I don't like blood!
Jayy and I had been best friends since high school, and it had become sort of a tradition that every Friday night we sat in and watched a movie together. Of course, he usually picked out the film and I was forced to watch whatever monstrosity he had decided on. But still, he was my best friend and I would always have a good time, even if I did spend most of the evening hiding from the horrifying pictures on screen.
'Okay, you can look now.' Jayy prompted me to take a wary look at the screen. Luckily there were no guts.
'God, you've seen this movie more than I have so warn me when another part comes up!'
'Well there isn't much point in watching it if your gonna miss all the good bits.' He jabbed me in the side playfully and I squirmed away.
'Well its either that or you can clean my puke up.'
'Nice.'
'Exactly. So warn me!'
Jayy sighed and shook his head at me, that's when we heard to door open.
'Hello?' A familiar voice travelled down the hallway. I got up and paced towards the source of the voice.
'Dahvieee!' I yelled and padded up to him with arms outstretched, awaiting a hug.
'Hey Em!' He replied with a grin before hugging me tight and lifting me up.
'Ohh you've been working out.' I said, squeezing his muscles when he put me down.
'Well you know, I gotta look good for the ladies' He winked at me and we both laughed.
'Hey Dahvie' Jayy said and waved is hand in our direction as he was passing the doorway on the way to the fridge.
'Hey hey! Get me a beer, well ya?'
'What am I, your slave?' Jayy teased with mock anger.
'Yup, that's about right!' We all laughed and made our way back to the living room, slumping down into the sofa.
'So how have you guys been? I haven't seen you in a couple weeks now Emily.' Dahvie made conversation as he cracked open a beer and took a gulp.
'Ive been good thanks, and yeah its been too long… We should all go out together soon. Its been so long since we have done that!' I said, tugging on both their arms.
'I know! That was fun, I miss those times' Jayy smiled at the memories.
'You know, im free tomorrow so im good to go if you are.' Dahvie smiled excitedly.
'Oh my god, yes, yes, yes!' I grinned and turned to Jayy to see if he was coming.
'Well otherwise id be sat on my white ass all day so I may as well come' He said smiling at us and scratching the back of his neck idly. I clapped my hands together once, grinning.
'Yesh! Aw do you guys wanna go shopping then?' I asked, looking back and forth between the two of them, gaining nods in agreement from both boys.
'Ill say hell yeah to that! I need to get some more clothes' Jayy said with a huge grin on his face.
'Jayy you already have to keep some of your clothes in my room, how can you need more clothes?' Dahvie asked, raising an eyebrow.
'Honey, you can never have too many clothes. Right Emily?' He nudged my arm. Thankfully the film was forgotten so I didn't have to pay attention to it.
'Well im not exactly what you'd call a girly-girl… Im not bothered about clothes' I laughed and Jayy sighed.
'Girl, you were supposed to back me up! Dahvie is more likely to listen to you.' He wiggled his eyebrows at me and I shook my head at him.
'Fine, yah Dahvie you can NEVER have too many clothes!' I said with way too much enthusiasm.
'Welp. As long as you keep them in YOUR room' Dahvie tutted and shook his head.
'Haha, I don't know why I even pleaded. You know I was gonna buy a shit load of clothes anyway.' Jayy winked, and grinned in victory.
'Ha! You probably would.'
We spent the night discussing new gossip and random shit until it got too late and we had to retreat to bed. Dahvie and Jayy went to bed in their rooms and I took to the guest room. I fell asleep in minutes, looking forward to tomorrows outing.
