Born This Way

Chapter 4

I must say I’ve been waiting for this day since I last spoke to Precious. As soon as I wake up, I checked my phone to see if I received any text messages from Precious but nothing. Nevertheless, I was extremely excited so I got up from my bed very early to prepare myself for a party that only starts at 7pm. I did mine and Ali's Laundry and then did some chores to pass time because I was really excited, my first real official party. Alison pays me to do her chore or her laundry, I don’t mind doing it for free because I love her so much but she insists on giving me money. I saw her slowly walk to the kitchen to fetch some milk, she turns around and sees me sweeping the living room “I’m on Season 4 already and boy am I hooked” she said and walk back to her room and closed her door. She has recently started watching Game of Thrones and she can’t stop, it’s all she watches and I am starting to feel neglected because I was all she used to watch. We played boardgames and play station but since she broke up with Danielle, her room has been her sanctuary and Game of Thrones is her best friend now. I personally am not a fan but I watch it for educational purposes, it’s quiet intriguing I must say but it really isn’t my cup of tea.

After my long shower Alison opened my door and came in wrapped in her fluffy white gown with a unicorn hoodie. “Lemme help you! Wear that white T-shirt and a jersey on top... untuck that Shirt. then wear your Cargo Camo pants with your all white Supras, throw on your beanie, and take your backpack, although its not really necessary since Club X is quite safe” she instructed. She watched me put on what she suggested I should have on and while I was struggling to wear the cargo pants, I looked up and caught her biting her lip, I ignored that and let out a chuckle. “Done" I said standing against the wall waiting for her response. “You look Hella fine princess” she said teasing me. “But you got to own it! own that look!!” she finished off sounding like a life coach before she walked out my room to go change. We walked out of our rooms simultaneously and I paused when I saw her. The beautiful white dress she had on hugged her beautiful body tightly. The black gladiators looked good on her smooth and thick legs, she finished the look off with a white fedora. “Dude! what the f**k!!!” she said as I snapped out of it. “Nothing” I said opening the door. “If I didn't know you any better, I'd say you were totally drooling over me” She said pushing me out the door “I'd rather drool for Princess Bubble-gum on Adventure Time than your dweeb” I lied through my teeth and I think she noticed that because shortly after she laughed hysterically. I felt my heart collapse when I looked at her once again before jumping in the car. I quickly ran and opened her door for her. If I would tell her how perfect she looked she would go on to tell me how homosexual I am and I don’t think I want to start that conversation just yet.

We struggled to find parking but we soon found perfect spot opposite the club. “my dad always told me to make sure my car is parked near a nicer looking car so mine looks lame and probably won’t get stolen”. “You have an SUV, half the people in the town have the same car, you won’t stand out anywhere you go trust me” she said doing the finishing touches on her make up. She was right for once, this place was filled with wealthy people who bought SUVs for their children at age sixteen, mine won’t get stolen I can bet my life on that.

I was very proud to walk hand-in-hand with a gorgeous woman. We took pictures at the red carpet Precious had set out for her guests, Alison was glowing in the lights and so were her legs. I held her waist stood next to her trying to get her attention and I finally did. She kissed on the cheek and held my hand gently pulling me away from the paparazzi. South Africa takes their ID cards really seriously, the security guard the bouncer asked to see our identity cards which I didn’t poses because I’m not from here so I gave him my name to check on the list and turns out Alison and myself had VIP passes on the guest list. The vibe inside the club was livid, people were going wild dancing on the dance floor while smoking weed and cigarettes into each other’s mouths. I saw a girl drink straight from the Hennessey bottle and another from the Cruz one. I thought we were late to the party but I figured these people were already drunk before they got here. I grabbed an horderves and made my way to the VIP section.

Fetty WAP, Trap Queen started playing and it turned into a twerk house, ladies were twerking everywhere. I looked around and found that I rarely saw any straight couple. Women were grinding on each other and men were doing the same of their counterparts. I smiled to myself. Ali saw her ex-girlfriend Danielle and started getting mad. She let go of my hand and headed for the bar. I probably won’t see her again for the rest of the night so I should look for Precious.

“Relax we are here to have fun" I said but before I finished, she was already at the bar. Finna get myself a fine ass stud! done with femmes" she yelled from where she was. I figured she knew something that I didn’t know, why would she assume there would be studs at Precious’s party? I caught sight of Precious and slowly walked to her to say Happy birthday to her. “Hey birthday girl, you look gorgeous" I said hugging her. “Gabby” I introduced myself trying to act confident. “Hey! thanks... You look different!" she said blushing “Thanks I guess" I said laughing “Where is Alison?" she asked looking around. “right there" I said pointing at Alison who was drinking heavily at this point.

“So where is the Prince of this Princess?" I asked curiously. I was trying to find out if my assumptions about her sexuality were true. “Uhm Don't have. Want to Dance?" She asked. “Sure!" I said as she pulled my hand to the dance floor and we started dancing. I have two left feet and dancing is foreign to me. I always envy my sister Fazel, who moves her body like a demon. Although I can't dance to save my life, I have to try so I can impress this lady in front of me. I step aside and do the electric slide with difficulty and she bursts out with laughter. She laughed at me so much. I looked over to see if Alison was good and she was grinding on a stud so I figured she was having fun.

After a few minutes we sat down a had our shots. She asked the waiter for a bottle of champagne and poured us each a glass to drink. We talked about everything including her distant family and she told me so many stories about her family and so did I. The MC said a few words of wisdom to Precious and asked that we sing the birthday song and we did. “I'm bored now" Precious said. “You cannot be kidding me. It’s your birthday Turn up!" I said feeling wasted. “Honestly I am, I barely know these people anyway" she said with a straight face “Want to go to my place?” I asked expecting her to reject my offer. “I guess” she agreed and I started getting excited. I took her hand and we sneaked out of the club and drove to my place. I took my keys and tried opening my door when we got to my apartment and when I looked back our eyes met It felt like love. I snapped out and attempted to open again, I opened the door.

She hugged me from behind I turned around, we started kissing. We kissed for a while before we went inside trying not to break the kiss, I lead her to the couch and threw her on it
