I had dated Parker back when, and he had cheated on me with some girl that I never learned the name to. So seeing him, wasn't the best thing to see. We hadn't kissed when we were together because it was a kind of long distant relationship that killed both of us. The Parker I knew loved to play music, love songs. The Parker I knew, would never bring his fiance with him, and the Parker I knew wouldn't try to tell me that it was my fault that we broke up. I guess I don't know Parker. It's funny how those kinds of things play out, your ex boyfriend and your REAL first LONG DISTANCE love wants to prove something that didn't matter- In the back of my mind I couldn't wait for him to meet Alek. His Fiance was ugly, my boyfriend was hot. He was charming, and he had that awesome accent. Parker would be so upset, it would crush him. We sat in my living room looking at each as I explained I wasn't home at the moment I was staying with Jasmine so they were welcome to the guest bedroom. "We'll I would like to take your friends out to a place I know around here" Parker said
"That would be great" I said and showed them to the guest bedroom, it was the smallest room in the house, it was painted with neutral colors and had gray sheets. It was a nice looking room, but I liked my piece of home the way it was. When Parker was alone is nudged him "Where did you find her?" I laughed and he smiled back.
"She's um, from New York. She's snotty and a bitch" I knew it, Parker was using her to make me mad. "The engagement is off when we leave" I played innocent throughout the thing not pointing out that I knew what he was doing. I left him there, going to my room looking for some outfits to wear tonight. I found some hot outfits and I packed every single one of them. Jasmine could pick which one, I told Parker goodbye giving him a hug and the look that said if he ruined anything in my house I was going to kill him. I didn't have to walk back, I had texted Amy telling her that Parker was here. She loved Parker, like a brother. She was just getting out of her car when I walked out. I told her about Parker's girl. It only made Amy laugh at how stupid he was.
"Where do you want to go?" Amy asked pretending to own a Taxi-Cab, then Genie in A bottle came on her Ipod... That's how my day got way out of control. We knew what the song meant, and we were still singing along with it at the top of our lungs. I took a break in my singing.
"Repeat this song, and I'll text Jasmine. We should make this a girls day" I texted Jasmine, who gladly said she would come. I was excited that she was until we got to the apartment and Alek and his friends were outside being the group of retards that they were. We waited for Jasmine, I texted Parker telling him that we were all on for tonight. It was all I could do until Parker called me. "Hey" I said and he just sighed, "What's wrong?"
"I wish we could hang out today, it's the reason I'm here...What are you listening to?" The song finally changed to an even worse song, I laughed. I couldn't get a break. I told Amy to change it, that people were going to start thinking all we had on our minds was sex because of our music. It sorta bummed me out that Alek hadn't even seen me yet, how could you not see me? I was in a red bug!
"I know, but it's girls day...and Amy's playlist"
"OH, Amy's list. Gotcha?" I was starting to think Amy was putting these songs on on purpose. Buttons, C'mon. Then she turned it up as Jasmine walked out. Jasmine's eye brows furrowed at Amy, then she smiled at me having my face in my hands. Alek's friends and Alek were finally staring... I hung up on Parker.
"IT'S YOUR SONG CHLOE!" Amy screamed almost. I was going to play along though, I caught on to what she was doing. "Dance Jasmine" She said and Jasmine did a hilarious awkward looking dance and then got in the car "Chloe! Dance!"
"You dance" I told her and she got out of the car, what was Amy doing? Everyone already thought she was crazy! She opened my door and pulled me out. "No" I told her "I will never talk to you again!" She started making my arms move. "We aren't those type of girls!" I said and then realized that my phone was ringing again, Parker of course. "Hello, Parker I'm sorry. Yes, I know that it was mean." Amy fianlly got back in her car, like I did. I was apologizing and trying to not kill Amy. Now, I was scarred for life. When I hung up again on Parker, "Jasmine, we're going dancing again tonight"
"Okay, Just girls or are we bringing the other three"
"Other three? OH MY GOD!" Amy said "You have a date?"
"Don't act all surprised" I told Amy, that was just rude to do that "That's great so it will be you and whoever you're bringing, Alek, Paul, Amy, and Parker and me" I knew I should have said Alek and me. Now it seemed messed up somehow. Opps. "Oh and Parker's fiance"
"Cool" Jasmine said as Amy nodded turning her music all the way up, I was going to laugh when her speakers were blown. "and I guess Alek's going to want to invite Carmine"
"Who's Carmine?" Amy asked looking at me, I shrugged.
"A friend of his, she'll leave tomorrow but I'm just saying"
"That's fine" No it's not why didn't he tell me he had a friend coming in, and where was she earlier? Okay, whatever. I wasn't going to think any thing of it, I was going to shop and I was going to eat. Plus, get my nails done. Didn't know how well that would go. It was a great day looking at things that Amy and I couldn't afford. That's how it always went. When we were on our way back home, Parker called for the tenth time telling us a time and a place. I let Amy and Jasmine fight over what I was wearing until they decided to combine the short brown dress without straps with my white shoes and my hair in that little bun thing Amy loved to put my hair up in. Alek wasn't there so it gave us time to run back and forth between rooms half dressed looking for nice things to put on. When Alek did get home, he had Carmine with him. She was pretty, but she didn't seem to like me. She looked like she wanted to kill me. We fit in Amy's car, I took the front seat. I was not going to be in that back seat with her. Amy played the worst song to play, Unfaithful. I was not going to question Alek about her, it was just a friend. Plus, I was doing the same thing by having Parker here. I told him about Parker though. I just sung the song, I didn't care what people were reading into it. Even Amy looked at me from the corner of her eye. Until she changed the song, Love Done Gone was not the perfect song at the moment but it was much happier. I sang to that one too, it was going to be one of those nights were everything was going to be a race or some kind of war to get the attention we all needed, except with Paul who was also meeting us at the club. Amy and him were perfect. I couldn't help but be a little jealous, every time that girl laughed I wanted to choke her and claw up her face. The simple truth is it just ain't no more. The club was nice looking, lights flashing around it but there was no line. They let anyone and everyone into this club without even seeing an ID. I spotted Parker wearing an orange polo long sleeved shirt, without the fiance by his side. That was going to be my get away from the Carmine thing tonight, I couldn't help it. He looked happy, and I liked happy. I waved to him, and he got his own little grin on his face. I walked up to him, hugging him. "Hey" I said when he let go "This is Jasmine" He smile and nodded to him.
"Didn't bring the boyfriend?" So he wasn't the only one who saw that Alek was standing way too close to Carmine. Good. Other people noticed that.
"I actually did... This is Alek" Parker held out his hand and said sorry, then I introduced Carmine to him. He smiled at her as well, then we all went into the club.
"Sorry, I just thought that-" I cut Parker off.
"Don't worry about it, It looks wrong doesn't it" I couldn't hide how I was feeling to him, It was really pissing me off that she was here. What's next, he's going to invite Mimi? Wow.
"Yeah it really does, he's not even dancing with you" He said "I'll dance with you, I know the game playa" He winked taking me out on the floor after tipping the DJ to play that song I knew he liked. Honey Bee By Blake Shelton echoed throughout the club. A lot of people didn't like it, but I didn't care. I still let him spin me around like how we danced when we were younger. We were almost slow dancing, but how his parent's used to dance to a country tune. It was a nice love song, I saw Amy smirking at me getting what was going on too. She pulled Paul out to the floor dancing with him like we were dancing, Paul wasn't as good as Parker was. I was singing along, I was happy. I was more than happy I was peaceful dancing with him without worrying about people calling me a slut, it was a dance. The next song that came on was a song I knew Parker had paid for and it made me feel bad. Alek was looking pretty pissed off it the corner as Jasmine's date and her danced. "Are you gonna kiss me or not?" Parker sung, I knew I couldn't kiss him. One, I would kill him Two, because I loved Alek! I loved Alek! He spun me around and the guilt and the tears started to kick in. I held my tears but I knew Jasmine could tell what was going on, Carmine had pulled Alek to dance with her. It was sickening. I felt like Hell. The normal music started playing after that, I never told you was not the song I wanted to hear but it was better than the song before that. That song made me realize how blue Parker's eyes were, how I did miss him from the Summers that we had stayed together and played together like little kids. I had to walk off, I had to get some air before I freaked out. Jasmine was the one that followed me outside as I put my back to the brick wall and slid down. What was I doing with my life? Stringing guys around? I messed up everything, I loved Alek. I wanted to be with him and I knew it would go back to normal when Carmine left. Parker had feelings for me, Brian had had feelings for me... Gabe had feelings for me. I was not that great of a person to deserve these people's hearts.
"Chloe" Jasmine said kneeling down looking at me "do you want to leave?"
"No... I'm just thinking about some things and I'll be back in. Give me a minute" She did as I asked and went inside giving me one last look. I waited a few seconds and followed her, I was done thinking about other guys. I walked up to Alek and asked if I could dance with him. It felt so Cliche but she moved out of the way, I didn't like the slow songs that the club was playing. They made everything so intimate, I looked around for Parker but I couldn't find him anymore. "Damn" I said looking at Alek "I have to find him" I left Alek alone and started searching for him, the Dance Floor Athem came on and I found myself running into people. I found Parker by the bar drinking something that smelt bad.
"I don't get it" He said taking a sip "Why do you love him, but not me?"
"Because we were made for each other" It was true, he was the one I was supposed to be with for the rest of my lives.
"He treats you like shit! That girl, who is she to him? If he was everything he wouldn't be trippin'" Feel the beat now, if you got nothing left... "I won't let you get hurt!" Now he sounded like Parker. The one that cared about everyone and knew all the guys intentions but he was wrong about Alek, God I hoped he was wrong about Alek. "You. Are. Being. Played."
"Who so?" I said trying to get the facts out of him.
"You should never have to feel like you're fighting for attention, you're are too special. C'mon you're the Uniter" I stopped cold, how did Parker know that I was the Uniter... "Yeah, I'm mai blah blah I thought you knew. I thought your friends knew who I was"
"You're Parker, Of course they know who you are"
"I'm Parker, the SC leader's kid" My mouth dropped at his words, Parker was Mai... That just makes everything so much worse.
