Chapter 11 – "Mistake"
Sora and Tai sat on the beach watching the wave's crash along the shore. It was a peaceful moment until they heard a commotion occurring back towards Mika's house. They turned around to see teens running around like chickens with their heads cut off. They then noticed the sound of sirens.
"It looks like Mika's party is over, huh?" Tai said watching the drunken teens fall over each other to get away.
"I guess so. Too bad," Sora replied. The two had nothing to worry about because they weren't drinking as much as the others and were still in tact with the world around them.
"Are you hungry?"
"Yes, actually!"
"Pizza sound good?"
"Sounds great."
"Good. Let's go."
The two stood up and began walking in a different direction to the street. They didn't want to get caught by the cops and end up spending the night in jail so they avoided the scene.
A cop approached Mika, who had frantically been trying to hide the liquor bottles and beer cans. Lucky for her the cop happened to be her older cousin who usually let her get away with these kinds of things.
"Excuse me, ma'am," her cousin, John, announced trying to sound professional.
Mika tried not to laugh, "What's the problem officer?"
"We got a complaint about some rather obvious noise. Any idea what it could be?"
"Sorry, sir. I had a few friends over. I guess things got a little out of hand. No worries. I'll tell them to keep it down."
"Sounds good," he bent down and whispered in her ear, "Please stop getting these little old women to call me and complain. I don't know how much more of their bitching I can take."
She whispered back, "Sorry, John. Most of them left anyways so it shouldn't be too bad now."
"Good deal. Well, I hope not to see you again tonight. Just keep everyone calm and I won't have to take you in."
Mika snickered, "Yes sir."
They shook hands and the cops were off. Mika sighed. She was relieved that most of the party had left because it was starting to get out of hand and she knew how nosy her neighbors were when her dad wasn't home. She walked back into her house and turned off the porch light.
"Party's on guys! They're gone!" Mika shouted making everyone in hiding cheer. The party continued to rage.
Matt began to run down to the beach. He didn't realize how much he had drank until he began having trouble standing up straight. His blurred vision showed signs of no one on the beach. He figured he didn't have to strength to go down and look for Sora so he went back to Mika's when the music began playing again.
"Good to see you again, Matt!" Mika said as she saw him enter the house.
"Have you seen Sora?" He asked groggily.
"Not since about an hour ago. We're all about to play beer pong. Come on, you can be on my team!"
Mika took his hand and led him to the back deck where a long, competitive game of beer pong began. By the fourth or fifth round no one really cared who was winning or losing any more. They were all too drunk to care. The game finally ended when one of Tyler, Mika's friend, passed out on the floor after taking his last chug. Everyone laughed but moved him to the couch.
"You know what, Matt," Mika began, "You are one of the coolest people I have ever met!"
"I feel the same way! Who'd of thought I'd meet a cool American girl along the way of this whole crazy situation?"
"Hey, I'm kind of tired. What about you?"
"Very tired."
"Come with me!"
It would soon be found out that Mika was not one to be trusted. If she wanted something, she went for it not caring who she hurt in the process.
"Oh, Tai! Wait a second," Sora stopped him while they were walking.
"What's up, Sora?" Tai responded.
"I left my necklace at Mika's."
"So? Get it tomorrow."
"Can we please go back for it? It's my Mema's it's kind of important and I don't want someone to steal it or for it to get misplaced."
"Okay, okay. But can we hurry please! I'm starving!"
"Sure."
The two headed back to Mika's where almost everyone was passed out either on the floor or the counter or a couch. The two were practically crawling over people to find their way to the stairs.
"Where'd you leave it?" Tai asked trying not to step on any one.
"In Mika's room. Upstairs."
The two went up the stairs to Mika's room. The door was shut but Sora didn't think twice about knocking. She and Tai let themselves in the room not noticing if any one was there or not.
"Here it is!" Sora said grabbing her necklace off the night stand and putting it back on.
"Good now lets-" Tai stopped as two people came barging out of the bathroom buck naked holding each other and making out exclusively.
Sora covered her eyes, "I'm sorry I…"
Sora stared at the scene in front of her. You could almost hear her heart break when she finally realized who it was.
"You have got to be kidding me," Tai said, also realizing it.
Right there, in the flesh, stood Mika and Matt, practically going at it with no care in the world. A tear ran down Sora's cheek before Matt comprehended the situation. He let go of Mika and began walking towards Sora, covering himself best he could.
"Don't touch me," Sora said firmly, "I hate you! Why don't you get back to your slut? That's what your good at."
Sora ran out of the room infuriated. Tai just shook his head.
"Tai, come on you know I wouldn't-"
"Save it. Fuck you, Matt. Fuck you. You two are perfect for each other," he glared at Mika, "You slut."
Tai left the room and slammed the door behind him. He was furious with Matt. He didn't even care that Mika was the girl he was hooking up with. He figured she was a slut anyways. He was pissed off at the fact that Matt would betray him in such a horrible way. But the thing that he was pissed off about the most was how badly he saw the pain in Sora's eyes. It damn near broke his heart to see that kind of emotion out of her.
"What have I done…" Matt said falling to the floor as tears escaped his eyes.
Mika began to gather her clothes as she said an unsympathetic sorry and left the room. Matt cried until he finally fell asleep.
Sora ended up back to Tai's room that night where the two sat mostly in silence as he comforted her through this situation.
"Why would he do that? Especially with a girl that you had just hooked up with?" Sora cried in Tai's arms.
"I don't know, Sora. I have never known what goes through that guys head but I guess now I know. He doesn't care. He doesn't care about you and he doesn't care about me. I guess we were just pawns in his little game."
"I just thought there was something more… I guess I was wrong."
"We all were."
"I'm going home. I'm getting the earliest flight out tomorrow that I can. Come with me?"
"Of course. Now that you've discovered we're here and now that I've found out that Mika is a slut, I have nothing else to stay here for. But for right now let's get some sleep. It's late."
Tai wiped away her tears and she sniffed. She cuddled up in the bed next to Tai and the two were soon off to sleep. She desperately wanted to forget about what had just happened but it haunted her, even in her dreams.
Matt awoke the next morning faintly remembering the events from the night before. His head hurt so badly he had forgotten where he was. He rolled over and felt another body lying next to him. All he saw was blonde hair and the back of a girl who was apparently naked. His eyes widened as he lifted the blankets off of him to notice that he was naked as well.
"Oh my God…" he said sitting up and freaking out.
The girl lying next to him moaned and rolled over, fluttering her bright green eyes. She smiled.
"Mmm… good morning, you," she said closing her eyes smiling.
"Mika!?" Matt almost screamed.
"Were you expecting someone else?"
"How did you, what did you, did we-"
"Of course, silly. Don't you remember?"
"Remember what? Can you explain to me why I'm laying in a bed naked next to you?"
She smirked, "Let me refresh your memory…"
She leaned forward and kissed him almost too passionately before he pulled away from her. He stood up from the bed and grabbed onto the sheets to cover himself. Mika pulled back on them playfully causing him to fall to the floor. His heart raced.
"Please tell me we did not have sex," Matt anticipated.
"Are you serious? You don't remember?"
"How am I supposed to remember? I don't even know where I am right now let alone what happened last night."
"Well, you're in my room, we drank a lot last night, and yes, we did have sex."
"Oh my God… Does Sora know?"
"Well, she did walk in on us. But its okay, you're better off with someone else. Someone like… well, me. Someone who knows how to keep up with someone like you. You're better than some prissy little Japanese girl who won't even put out."
"Shut up! Just shut the fuck up, Mika! Don't you dare talk about Sora like that! What happened last night was a mistake! It never should have happened! You took advantage of me knowing that I'm in love with Sora! How could you do that?"
"You just seemed so desperate for female attention it was easy."
Matt shook his head, "I can't believe you would do this."
Mika propped herself up on one arm, "It takes two to tango, hunny. I didn't have sex with myself you know."
"This is unbelievable. You took advantage of my vulnerable situation! I have never met someone so evil, so conniving, so-"
Mika stood up from the bed and wrapped herself in the sheets, "Believe me, you liked it. Once you realize that she's not going to be with you, you'll come crawling back to me…"
With that she walked into the bathroom shutting the door behind her. Matt quickly grabbed his clothes and put them on rushing out of the house. He figured Tai knew about what happened and was too scared to face them so soon. He found himself at a coffee shop which seemed to be the high school hang out. Girls smiled at him and snickered. A couple of them winked trying to get his attention but he just blew it off. He knew it was going to be a long rest of the week…
