I'm sitting on my bed with my drum pad and headphones in drumming out to music. I was just about to go into the best part of the song when my phone goes off. I look at the time and I've been doing this for about and hour and a half. I have three new next messages. Wow! I'm popular!
Hey be ready at like 7:45ish. K? K. - Shane
Hey... Um its Alex. - Alex
Mitchie, your father and I won't be coming home tonight. Be good. - Mom
Well thanks for dinner mom!
I send a quick reply to Alex and Shane. I'm giving my mom the silent treatment for at least a couple hours when she gets home! It looks like I have to make dinner tonight. Leftovers here I come! I walk to the kitchen turning the living room T.V. on the way. Nothing like a little gossip while heating up some lasagna. I put it in the oven and sit down on the couch. "I knew she was cheating on him!" I yell at the T.V. When the timer for the oven goes off.
'This right here's a panty droppa' my phone goes off. Ugh! I hate Shane for putting that on there! I put my lasagna on top of the oven and retrieve my phone.
"H-hello?" I ask.
"Oh god, please don't tell me you just got finished like masturbating or something!" Shane says.
I giggle and say,
"Oh whatever you're the one that gives themselves a 'helping hand' when there parents are in the same house and they walk in on you!" I grab my food And sit down on my couch.
"Hey! That was once! Okay! I don't do it when there here anymore." He says proudly, I could just imagine his big smile he has on right now.
"Oh! Now that's good! Do you want a cookie!" I say sarcastically. My phone beeps and I look at it; 1 New Text Message.
So have you made up you mind yet on the ride thing? :P- Alex
I don't know... ;) but if it gets me a chance to be in that awesome car again then Hell yes! :) - Mitchie
That's when I still remember that I'm still talking to Shane. I put my phone on speaker and place It on the couches arm rest and finally start eating.
"...Okay?" Shane finally says.
"To be honest I didn't listen to a word you said. Can you repeat it?" I said with a mouth full of lasagna.
"Ugh! Are you even getting ready?" he asks
"Oh about that. I got another ride." my phone buzzed and I look at it.
Great! Okay all pick you up in an half hour?.. Is that okay? - Alex
I look at the clock and it's 7:20!
"It's 7:20! Shane! I have to start getting ready!" I yell quickly throwing my plate in the sink and running up stares.
"Wait who's picking you up!" Shane yells.
"No one. But I'll see you there okay?" I say ripping my clothes off and running to the bathroom. I barley hear a soft 'K' before I hang up.
...
'There's a fire starting in my heart...' my phone rings out. I grab it trying not to get it wet since I'm still in the shower. I answer it without looking at the caller I.D. And sing,
"Hello?"
"Hey Mitchie. I'm here." Alex says. I look at the phone: 7:35.
"Oh okay then can you do me a favor and just come in? I'm not quiet ready yet. The door is open and just go upstairs and the second door on the right is mine, you can just chill for a couple... Please?" I ask.
"Oh okay." she says and I can hear her turning off her car. I smile and say bye while throwing the phone on the counter. I hear the door shut when I step out of the shower. Crap! I forgot a towel. I hear her coming up the stairs, and great she's in the room! What am I going to do?
"Hey Alex! Just make yourself at home." I yell from the bathroom.
"Okay!" she yells back.
"Um, Alex? This is really embarrassing but can you do me another favor?" I ask peeping my head out the door. She looks at me with a eyebrow risen.
"Well considering you hair is still wet and dripping. Did you like forget a towel or something?" she asks giggling. I nod and she starts laughing.
"Do you mind getting me one? It's on my bed right there." I say pointing to the Dora Explora towel on the bed. Oh great! She picks it up and starts laughing even louder. Great now I'm blushing! She hands me the towel and close the door to put it on and then I realize that my clothes are not in here either! Wow. I'm dumb. I gently walk out trying to be sneaky because my dresser is just right next to the door. I look at Alex and she's distracted by a picture on the wall. I quietly get my clothes and run back into the bathroom. Oh My God! I forgot my bra and underwear! I quietly open the door again and she sees me this time. Great! I point to my dresser and she just giggles. I grab my bra and underwear and leave without even looking at her. God this is embarrassing!
Once I'm safely in side my bathroom Alex says,
"So you like Dora Eh?" she asked giggling a little more.
"In my defense I haven't done laundry yet okay! This was the only one left!" I say walking out fully clothed and ringing out my hair.
"Uh huh." she says locking her eyes on my body. I cough and she brings her eyes back to mine, nodding I nod while walking back into the bathroom. I close the door and clutch the counter trying to not freak out. She just checked me out! Okay hurry up! You don't want to make her late to her own party! I quickly do my hair and walk out of the bathroom seeing Alex laying on my bed on her phone.
"Ready?" she asks not taking her eyes off her phone.
"Yeah let's go." I cough to get her attention and she finally looks up at me and smiles one of though's billion dollar smiles. I blush and walk towards the door.
...
The party is in full effect. I'm shocked to see allot of the band people here were not really the first people to be invited to party's like this. Us band people aren't really appreciated at the school. Once at a football game some students threw there food at us because the song 'sucked' and we need to play 'updated music'. But I thought that song was awesome! Okay well I'm being a little biased.. So what! We are awesome!... Who am I kidding? We are the lowest of the low on the coolness bar here around here and Alex yeah she is on the tippy top of that list. I can't believe she even knows I exist! I walk into the kitchen trying to get a couple drinks for us 'losers'. I'm still shocked they are drinking! I see Alex talking to her group of friends which are basically the jocks and populars. Duhh! I get some drinks out of the fridge and of course they don't even notice me. But how could they? It's basically packed in here. Harper spots me though and gives me a small smile. I smile back and continue to get the drinks. I over hear one of the girls talking to Alex and she says,
"You gave her a ride? What is she your charity case?" I frown a little hoping that Alex sticks up for me.
"Whatever..." Alex says. I walk out and Alex notices me but doesn't follow, She just stands there and I can feel her staring at me too. I give the 'losers' there drinks and walk towards the back door wanting to get some air. I down my drink. I see a girl walk by me with two drinks in her hand and I take one. Finally getting outside I down that one also. God! I'm so stupid! How can I think we can be friends when the whole school is against it! Ugh! This really sucks! I sit on the grass, my back leaning against a tree when Harper walks out and sit next to me.
"I'm sorry. I hate how this school is just so... so just s-stupid!" she says I can tell she's a little tipsy but it's kind of funny.
"I understand. She was just being nice to me. I would have done the same thing. Who am I thinking that she is actually going to risk her spot at the top just to be my..." girlfriend "...friend." I frown and Harper rest her her head on my shoulder.
She sighs and says,
"You know I know... That you like her." she hick ups and looks at me. I was about to ask her how but she gives a 'do you think I'm stupid' look.
"I have always seen you look at her at the basketball games. You were like 'Go Number 5!' Even if she didn't make it." she says laughing.
I smile and say,
"Which was like never! She always made it!" Harper frowns a little. I notice and give her a pat on the head knowing what she's thinking.
"The coach was stupid for not putting you in. You are really good." I say. She looks up at me smiling patting my nose she says,
"You know I like you! No wonder why Alex defended you after you walked off." she got up and started walking but she turned around at the door and smiles at my shocked face.
"Oh and you better call your folks because your staying the night, and Alex said to tell you to invite that guy. Um, Shane I think?..." I nod with a even more shocked look on my face.
"Yeah! Well see you inside." she walks inside and I just lay down for a minute looking at the stars trying to process everything.
...
I hear the back door open and close and I just close my eyes even tighter. Who ever it was I herd them coming closer to me so I check my watch. 1:56. Wow I've been out here for a while I probably missed the entire party.
"Hey are you ready to come back in now?" Alex says. She crouches down next to me and puts her hand on my thigh. Oh god! She will defiantly be the death of me. I get up and she follows leading the way to the door. Alex is about to open it but stops and turns around to look back at me. She gives me a reassuring smile and opens the door.
"So everyone left already. And it's just us three here now." Harper says grabbing my hand and tugging me to what I believe is Alex's room. I look around and see the wall covered with basketball pictures, awards, and there is even a basketball hoop laundry basket. Wow she must really love this sport. Harper jumps on Alex's bed and goes directly to sleep so I walk around and look at all the trophies.
"That was my first one. I was so happy I wouldn't stop cleaning it for at least two weeks." Alex says walking toward me with two waters in her hands. She gives me one and she goes to her dresser throwing me some clothes while she directs herself to the bathroom to change. I quickly change hoping she doesn't walk out and seeing me basically naked. She gave me some lady mustangs basketball shorts and an oversized t-shirt, but just as put my shirt on she walked out of the bathroom with a really tight tank top on and really short shorts, like I think they are so short that they are probably illegal. Wow. She coughs and my attention goes back to her eyes.
"Well since the guest room is being remodeled and someone probably threw up on the couch I suggest you sleep on the bed with Harper and I." she says moving her head in the direction on her bed. Harper was now user the covers on the far right side cuddling up to Alex's body pillow. I sigh and run my hand through my hair and just gently get in the middle not wanting to wake Harper up. Unlike me Alex just basically belly flopped on the bed and putting the spare blanket over herself offering it to me also but I politely declined. I did not want to risk anything tonight. Who knows what I might do. I was actually really cold and Harper was hogging all of the blankets and the bed. I sigh again I could here my teeth lightly chattering. Alex hears this and rolls over facing me now and putting her blanket over me and getting as close to me as possible trying to not make it awkward.
"Your really cold. You were outside for a while. I can't believe you missed the whole party." she says her hands now gripping my arms rubbing them up and down trying to get heat to them. I instantly stiffen and she notices. She snorts and says,
"You know I don't bite you don't have to be afraid of touching me." she says with her mouth near inches away from my ear. Goose bumps spread like wild fire across my body and I just nod.
"W-Why are you doing this?" I ask resting my head on her shoulder. She now has switched to rubbing various patterns on my arms gently squeezing now and then. I hope she doesn't know what she's doing to me. I feel like I'm going to lose all my control any second now.
"What are you talk-"
"You know what I'm talking about Alex." I said. I lift my head up trying to look into her eyes but failing miserably because it was pitch dark in here. We just lay there for a couple minutes and I thought she had fallen asleep so I try to turn over but she stops me.
"I know everyone sees you as a loser but... I don't know when we first met I just found you very... Interesting. I've seen you march around the school and at the games. You seem so... happy and everyone was always smiling and laughing when they were with you. You weren't fazed by people and the comments about you. I guess I was... just was wondering what it would feel like to have someone in my life who didn't care what other people thought of them." Alex says running her hands up and down my arm one more time before pulling away.
"Alex I-"
"We should really go to bed it like 3:00 right now." Alex says interrupting me she turn around now with her back facing me and I soon hear her breathing evening out. Wow. I just need to stop thinking. I really need to get some sleep. I lay down trying to let sleep take me but right when I was near seconds to going to sleep Harper starts snoring. Great! Alex sighs and gets her pillow throwing it over me to hit Harper in the head then puts it back under her head. Harper just stopped snoring and cuddled more into the body pillow. I giggle a little bit and hear a faint 'goodnight Mitchie' from Alex and I say good night. Sleep finally takes me and I went to sleep smiling the biggest smile ever that night.
A/N: Bonus points for the person that names the artist and song of the two ringtone's that Mitchie has. :] Review. :]
