It was about 5:30 now, so I started getting ready to go get ice cream. My hair still looked fine, plus I didn't really care anyways. It was getting slightly chilly outside, so I threw on a white hoodie over my tank top. I walked downstairs to see Liz in the kitchen, she had just gotten home and also had a hoodie on.

"Hey, you ready?" She asked.

"Yeah, I guess." I sighed.

"Whats wrong?" She asked.

I told her about the Jared incident over at Jensen's, and she rolled her eyes.

"I hate guys who play games. If he wants to be with you, then he should tell you how he feels. Its wrong of him to date some ugly girl, then get jealous because you and Jensen watched a movie together!" Liz said, annoyed.

"Thank you, someone who understands!" I said, grabbing my keys. "I'm not even going to get worked up about it, he'll get over it soon enough."

"Exactly."

So, Liz and I got in my car and I drove us to Dairy Queen. I saw Jensen, Jared, and Erin already sitting at a table with ice cream. Liz and I walked up to the counter and ordered our ice cream. She got vanilla with sprinkles and I got a pumpkin pie blizzard. I sat down next to Jensen, then Liz sat down next to me. The moment I sat next to Jensen, I saw Jared roll his eyes. What was his problem?! He should know Liz likes Jensen, its obvious. We used to talk about it all the time.

"Hey you guys," Erin smiled.

"Hey," Liz and I said in unison, then looked at each other and laughed a bit.

"This ice cream right now is seriously the best thing ever. I would marry this ice cream," I said.

We all laughed, except for Jared. I saw him smile a little, but for the most part he avoided me. He was really starting to piss me off.

"You okay, babe?" Erin asked Jared as she put her arm through his.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Jared smiled at her and pecked her on the lips.

Ouch, I'll admit seeing that hurt a little.

"Oh, hey Nessa! I forgot to tell you, one of my good friends from work is getting transferred to another hospital and she's having a party tonight. She invited both of us, and we both have tomorrow off so I figured that we could go if you wanted to." Liz told me.

"Yay, that sounds fun! Which one is it?" I asked.

"Gina, the blonde one. She's pretty thin, blue eyes, the one that always smiles. You know which one I'm talking about?"

"Oh, yeah! She was my favorite, I like her!" I told Liz.

"Well, it starts at 8 so we can just go right after this. We should probably get her a gift though, huh?" Liz asked.

"Yeah, lets get her a really nice card and like a necklace, just something simple." I told her.

"Okay, that's fine. We'll just go to Wal-Mart after this then." Liz said, picking up the phone and walking away.

"Where's she going?" Jensen asked.

"I'm assuming to call Gina and tell her we're coming," I told Jensen.

Jared rolled his eyes again as he finished his ice cream.

"Are you okay, seriously?" I asked Jared in a stern voice.

"I'm fine!" He practically yelled, nearly creating a scene.

"If you were fine, you wouldn't have raised your voice. You're obviously mad at me for no reason!" I let out a laugh and rolled my eyes.

"Whatever Vanessa, I'm not starting this with you right now." Jared said.

Right before I got pissed off and said something really mean, Liz stopped me and told me we should leave to go to the store. I gave Jared one last glare as I stood up.

"Oh, and I don't suppose any of you wanna come? She said we could bring some guests," Liz told them.

Immediately, Jared declined.

"I'll come, I have no life." Jensen said with a laugh.

"Of course." Jared mumbled.

"What was that?" I asked him with an obvious amount of attitude.

He completely ignored me. He was being so immature!

"You know-"

"Come on Ness, I'll drive." Liz cut me off then dragged Jensen and I away before a major fight occured.

As soon as we got in the car, I slammed the door and put on my seatbelt. I was so mad, why did he have to ruin my mood?!

"God, what is his problem?! He is so immature! He has no reason to be mad at me, yet he's sitting there treating me like shit all because I watched a movie with Jensen! Oh, I watched a movie with one of my closest friends ever, shoot me! I'm the devil, you guys!" I ranted.

Jensen and Liz only shook their heads. We went to Wal-Mart and grabbed a nice card, and bought Gina a cute silver necklace with a heart on it. We put it in a blue little gift bag, then we were off to the party. It was already starting to get dark, and the party was at a bar so there were tons of people there. It was about Gina's whole family I'm assuming, and tons of friends. We walked inside and spotted Gina, then decided to greet her.

"Hey!" Liz said, hugging her.

"Hey, I'm glad you guys came!" She said, hugging me as well.

"This is Jensen," Liz introduced.

"Nice to meet you," Jensen said, shaking Gina's hand.

"So, where are you transferring to?" I asked her.

"Oh, Firelands. Its in Sandusky, Ohio and they're supposed to pay pretty good, better than my job here!" She informed, and we all laughed. "I leave Tuesday."

"Well, congrats!" I told her.

"Thank you! Well, if you're hungry, the food is over there." She pointed to a large table with a purple cover.

"Alright, oh and here's your gift!" Liz told her, handing her the little blue bag.

"Aw, you guys didn't have to!" Gina said with a smile.

"We wanted to!" Liz told her, returning the smile.

She gave us another hug, then we walked over to the food table. None of us were hungry, so we walked to the bar and ordered a couple drinks. I ordered vodka, my favorite.

"Damn, straight vodka? I can't do it, I'm a lightweight." Jensen said with a laugh.

"Me too!" Liz agreed, and we all laughed.

"I'm not, I never have been. I was always a party girl," I said sheepishly.

"Oh, I know!" Liz gave me a knowing smile and I blushed at our memories.

"Wow, I don't think I've ever seen Vanessa drunk." Jensen said.

"You don't wanna," I laughed.

"High school Vanessa at a party? Sounds entertaining," Jensen said and we laughed again.

The night went on, and the three of us spent most of our time at the bar, drinking and laughing. It was fun, occasionally we danced. We also watched Gina open gifts, and they got her a going away cake too. All of a sudden, I heard Liz laughing obnoxiously and looked over at her. She was most definitely drunk, I could tell. I had seen Liz drunk enough times to know. Oh great, I'm tipsy and we have no designated driver. I went to go stand up, but then the room started spinning and I grabbed the counter. Yeah, I need to sit back down. Jensen and Liz started laughing at me, then they went on the dance floor and danced. They were both drunk so it was hilarious.

Then, Erin and Jared walked in the bar. They spotted Liz and Jen and laughed, then they saw me and the smile wiped off their faces. I looked back and Liz and Jen, they were already making out. Well damn, I felt lonely.

"One more," I told the bartender with a sigh.

He slid me a shot of vodka, I took it quick and slammed the glass on the counter.

"Another," I told him.

"Rough night?" He asked, pouring more vodka and sliding it over to me.

"Its complicated," I told him and shook my head.

I played with the glass, not drinking it yet. Someone sat next to me, I looked over to see Jared. He gave me a sympathetic look.

"What?" I snapped.

The room started spinning again, so I blinked slowly and tried sitting upright.

"Ness, are you drunk?"

"What does it matter to you?!" I spat.

"Look, I'm sorry about earlier. I just had this weird feeling you and Jensen were lying to me, but when I saw him kissing Liz, I was obviously wrong." Jared apologized, looking down.

I rolled my eyes, and took my last shot.

"You probably shouldn't be drinking anymore," Jared said.

But he seemed far away, I looked over at Liz and Jen all happy. Then, they started talking and laughing with Erin. I looked back at Jared, he was staring at Erin. He had a smile on his face, he was happy. Then out of no where, tears started streaming down my face. I tried to stand up, but I was way too drunk.

"Wait, Vanessa! Whats wrong?" Jared asked, seeing my tears.

"Leave me alone!" I told him, I was now sobbing.

I tried walking towards the door, but Jared caught up with me. He grabbed my arm, but I got away and walked out the door. He followed me out there, then spun me around.

"Vanessa! What is wrong!?" He asked again.

"Don't act like you care!" I yelled at him.

"I do care, Vanessa! We've been friends for how long?!"

"Friends! Ha!" I laughed in his face.

He always says we've been friends for so long but seems to clearly forget when we were in love with eachother. I didn't know what was wrong, this came out of nowhere. I tried getting in my car and he stopped me, he took my keys and grabbed my shoulders, walking me to the passenger seat. I was going to object, but I felt like I was going to throw up. I sat in the car, then Jared got in the driver's seat.

"I'm taking you home," He told me.

"Why?! I have to tell Liz. Won't Erin be pissed anyways?! Your precious girlfriend doesn't like me," I replied.

He totally ignored me. I looked over at him with tear stained eyes, he kept glancing at me. Then he said something, but I couldn't quite make it out. I was going to ask him to repeat it, but then I totally blacked out.
