After changing out of her marinara sauce stained pajamas, the bubbly red-head now wore a comfortable pink and blue stripped sweater, dark blue skinny jeans, and white flats; a comfortable, yet cute look. Cat looked down at her pink pearphone, just now noticing the many texts Jade left for her prior to her arrival. "Oops." She said quietly as she scrolled through the many texts from her new guest demanding she reply.
Just looking at Jade's threatening texts made her feel uncomfortable and unsafe, how was she going to live with her? Cat looked over her shoulder paranoid and quickly put it phone in her jean pocket. As she made the way back to the kitchen and living area, hundreds of thoughts came rushing through Cat's head. Weird, Cat never thought about things she just went with it and experienced the end result. What if Jade wanted to get between her friendship with Sam? They were acting pretty chummy ten minutes ago or so. Jade wasn't that mean, was she?
The modest teenage girl shook her head, trying to clear her head of such thoughts and even thoughts themselves. But as she walked back to the two of her friends, it came off as if she were a dog shacking it's head trying to get dry.
"Uh, Red? You alright?" Jade asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine."
"Good, I didn't really care."
Sam laughed at Jade's reply and brought out two bottles of Blue Dog Soda, her and Cat's favorite sugar-packed soda. Cat ceased shaking her head and ran over to the counter, grabbing one of the bottles and opened it.
"Dude, what the heck?" Sam said and grabbed the bottle from her roommate's hand and passed it on to Jade. "I got that for Jade. While you were getting all fancied up, Jade told me she's never had one of these."
"Then who's the second one for?" She asked.
"Me. Now be a good little Cat and clean up the mess you made."
"The mess I made?! But you're the one who dropped the meatballs."
"Did I? …or did you?"
"I don't know." Cat replied and looked off confused, trying to piece to together the conversation they were having and obviously forgetting.
Jade took a seat in a nearby bright red barstool and observed the scene taking place before her, it was quite the spectacle. The goth chuckled and popped the cap of her bottle, taking a sip of the blue beverage. The blonde leaned against the counter after dismissing her roommate, just waiting to see what her new friend thought of the drink.
"Dude, this is some serious dog I'm drinking down!" Jade exclaimed and smiled widely, an expression not often seen on her face.
"I know right? Hey, you want to head down to the mall in a few? I heard they just opened up this new Build-a-Bra and guess what? They now have studded bras with glow-in-the-dark straps. My best friend Carls and I used to go to the location in Seattle all the time."
"Yeah, sure. Well we're at it, why don't we visit the record store as well. They just got a new shipment of antique records from the 60's and I want to be the first to get my hands on them."
"Let's go then!"
"Alright!"
The two girls quickly grabbed their jackets and headed for the door, not bothering to utter a goodbye or even offer an invitation to their mutual friend Cat.
"Hey Cat?" Sam asked as she poked her head from outside the doorframe, "You might want to get working on that door."
Cat sighed and grabbed a yellow sponge from the sink, carefully kneeling down on the tile floor to clean up the remains of the meaty aftermath. She was right; Jade did steal Sam from her. Maybe she should listen to her brain more often, and then she could think of a way to win her back. It's not that she still didn't like Jade still as a friend, she just didn't like the two of them leaving her in the dust. But reverting back to her old thoughtless self, the bubbly red-head started to sing her version of "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" and got lost in the song.
"Take me down to the basement,fill the buckets with cheese. Tickle your mother with pucker fish,
kiss a rhinoceros then make a wish,cause it's noodle soup for the sailors.If their boat sinks in the rain…
and we won't... won't... pay for this songcause it's public domain!"
