Day of reunion
Stevie's P.O.V
"Can u do my mascara?" My best friend Kacey Simon asked
"Yea sure, but only if you do my eye shadow." I replied. "no problem but if you poke me in the eye I'll kill u." she stated.
"well If you'd stop blinking when I do it, I won't poke you." I countered. We let out a laugh. I stood up, while grabbing Kacey's hand to pull her up as well; we stood back and admired ourselves through the full length mirror.
"Do you think Dean will like my dress?"
Kacey wondered aloud.
Kacey and Dean Hollis have been in love with each other ever since we graduated high school. But after graduation there were long and hard goodbyes; since Kacey and I were going to a snobby private college in Florida; isolated from the rest of our friends. Dean promised Kacey that they could make their relationship work, she believed him of course but, me being the most unaffectionate person in the world, never believed in the fairy tale he promised her. Later in the year, I discovered of course, I was right. Our friend Grace, who goes to the same school as Dean told me he was cheating on Kacey. Grace asked me to pass the message on to Kacey but I never had the heart. I never thought I'd have to. they would never see each other again... Until that stupid letter came under our
Door saying that every student who attended Brewster High School must come back for an early reunion. I dreaded this letter and was sure Kacey would feel the same. But When I showed it to her, she practically jumped for joy. "Another chance to be with Dean! Now that we finished school and we're moving back to New York we could be together! Ohh I'm sure he has a wonderful job." she would say. I found that hard to believe since in high school he wanted to be a DJ on that show Jersey Shore.
"Kace, of course Dean would love your dress." I said unsurely. "But I think Kevin would love it even more." I said trying to lead her towards other guys.
I knew Kevin Reed was head over heels in love with her. But whenever he called her she would give the same answer, "Sorry I have a boyfriend." Kevin was one of the guys in our band along with Nelson Baxter and Zander Robbins, he played drums while Nelson played keyboard, Zander played ukelele, key-tar and piano also he was a really good singer.
" Kevin? Why would I care what he thinks? I love Dean." she said in a duhh matter, while fixing the misplaced ruffles on her dress.
"Kacey, I really love your dress." I said changing the subject. Her dress was simple yet gorgeous, it was black with grey ruffles, and a sweetheart neckline, it finished just little above her knee, showing just enough of her long legs. Her hair was straight and was down.
"Thanks yours is amazing too." she said thankfully. I studied my dress. I was royal blue and kind of sparkly and was long, it had a black belt, but had a v neck so it showed some cleavage. i had grown out my hair a little so it ended a little below my shoulder. it was styled up and curled.
"Justin is gonna love it." she said with a smirk."
I dropped what I was doing and said
" I don't care what he thinks, I hate him."
"sure." she said with another smirk
Justin Cole was my biggest crush in high school. I don't know what i ever saw in him, he was rude, mean, arrogant, cocky yet so hot and funny and the list goes on. But on the day of graduation I told him I loved him, and he started Laughing told the whole senior class I was a loser and when I ran out in tears Kacey, Nelson, Kevin and Zander were the only ones there for me.
The person i was really nervous about seeing was Zander. In high school nervous was a foreign feeling between us. We were best friends with no concept of personal space; but that all changed when i realized i had a crush on him. My crush didn't make our relationship awkward since i was sure he would never feel the same way, Until i overheard him talking with Kevin and Nelson.
Flashback
Stevie's P.O.V
I was making my way back to the band room to get my base. I forgot it when i was practicing with Zander yesterday. We were up like half the night writing a new song for our performance at our graduation. The sing was a duet for Kacey and Zander but we practiced it with each other last night. Zander was stunned by the sound of my voice and insists i should sing lead for often. He even suggested we do a duet together. My heart flipped flopped when he said that but then i reminded myself that he would never feel the same way and our duet would be strictly professional.
i was about to go into the band room when i heard familiar voices. i soon recognized them as Zander Kevin and Nelson. It sounded like they were arguing i was about to go in and break it up when i heard my name i decided to listen and hear what they were talking about.
"Come on Zander just admit it." Kevin said
"I'm not gonna admit something that isn't true." Zander replied
"We all know you're in love with Stevie." Nelson said
My eyes widened at that comment. Could Zander like me?
"Okay that's it i don't like Stevie. She's only a friend that i go out with sometimes, and our 'dates' mean nothing to me. She's just some girl she means nothing, i don't care about her. I just take her out sometimes because i feel bad for her." He said
I can't believe he said that about me. I thought we were best friends i guess i was wrong. From that day I kinda ignored him only tailing to him about rehearsals. We were never the same after that. I knew he knew that i was keeping something from him but every time he brought it up i made up some lame excuse. He never knew what was wrong and i never wanted him to know.
End of Flashback
Of course back then I was an insecure stupid little innocent tomboy with a crush gone wrong.
I'm not that girl anymore.
Now I'm prideful I'm secure, and successful. With my new confidence and attitude that i now have, Kacey and I are read to kick ass.
i know not much Zevie yet but I promise I'll add more Zevie.
Please R&R
