Chapter 2
1026 Words
Today is already Friday and as always, Alex brought me home. When I'm about to go down, he grabs my arm and talks to me.
"Today there's a party, are you coming?" I look at him as if he were telling me a joke, and when I realized that it was not a joke, I answered him.
"As my best friend you should know that I am not a party girl".
"But I want you to come, invite Fer too" so that was it, she likes my new friend, how refreshing.
"Okay" I say not very convinced, I am not a lover of parties or birthdays.
"Seriously?"
"If she can't or don't want to, you know I'm not going, I'll let you know".
"Yes milady, bye".
"Goodbye, old man".
I go up to my room and send Fer a w******p, because if I don't Alex will somehow find out and get mad. I pray to Diosito if it exists, to say no.
Me: Feeeer
Fer: What's up ??
Me: Today there is a party
Me: Do you want to go?
Fer: Sure
Hell, then God betrayed me or it doesn't exist.
Me: Oki
Me: Are you coming home?
Fer: Come on, in 1 hour I'm there
Fer: Oh
Fer: What do I ask my parents for?
Me: Alright
I hope they say no, that they say no, that they say no.
Fer: Yes they told me yes
Fer: I'm in an hour
Dammit, again, dammit. I decide to send Alex a message now.
Me: Hello :(
Best friend: Why that little face? What happens?
Me: Let's go to the party
Best friend: Yeah
Best friend: I'll pick them up
Me: Well now Fer is coming home
Best friend: Have a nice time
Me: Idiot
Best friend: I'll let you know when I go
Best friend: I love you
Me: ❤
Best friend: A thanks you would be nice
Me: A thanks??
Me: You know I don't want to go
Best friend: You might have a good time
Yes of course, I will not answer him more until he come looking for us.
Fer just arrived home and we are seeing what to wear, I do not have party clothes but she brought some things from home.
"Alex is going to come looking for us, I forgot to tell you".
"Alright ... this?"
"I don't know".
"We better keep looking for clothes".
"Sure".
We ended up putting her on a black skirt, black shoes and a white top; And I'm a black shorts, a gray top and my gray booties too, I don't plan on wearing heels and being uncomfortable all night.
While we waited for Alex to come we ate pizza that was in the fridge, apparently we both love pizza. After finishing it we decided to go down so we were waiting for it downstairs.
When my best friend arrives, Facundo is already his best friend who likes me sometimes. I make Facundo get down to sit in the back with Fer so I sit forward and after settling in he starts.
"You two are beautiful" Alex speaks.
"Thank you" we answered at the same time.
"What?"
"What of what?" I ask him.
"Am I not cute?"
"No".
"Get off" he stop the car and look at me seriously, although a small smile escapes him.
"You're not cute" he looks at me with a raised eyebrow. "You are beautiful, beautiful, sexy ... Shall I continue?" I turn to whisper that last thing to Fer with a smile.
"Okay there, come on".
"I don't understand them" Fer speaks.
"Me neither and I have known them for a lot of years" Facundo agrees with Fernanda.
With Alex we look in the rearview mirror and start laughing, we see the other two waving at each other that we are crazy. Alex brakes the car and winks at me.
"Down" we say at the same time.
"But why? What did we do?" they speak at the same time.
"For calling us crazy".
"It was a joke" says Fer now. "We love you".
"Yes, yes, that. Obviously you are not crazy, and if we are. Shall we continue the journey?" they both make little dog eyes.
"Do we leave them or make them stay?" Alex asks reflecting on it.
"I still don't know" the three look at me expectantly. "They stay, anything later we do not bring them".
"Deal" we hold hands as if closing a deal with my best friend.
"Good" Fer and Facu laugh.
We got to the party and the house was huge, I think it's from one of Alex and Facu's school friends. We go down and the first thing I do is grab Fer by the arm to go for a drink.
"I thought you didn't like drinking" Fer speaks behind me.
"Just because I don't like going to parties doesn't mean I don't like drinking, it's more ... I love drinking".
"Weird".
"Forever".
We arrived and the boy at the bar is tall, dark and very cute, we must add.
"What will you drink?"
"Vodka".
"Little girl, that is very strong for you".
And ... almost ... a little more ... there it is, absolutely everything she had was gone.
"I didn't ask you if I was strong or not, you asked me what I was going to drink and I told you".
"Sorry. I can't give you that, we don't want people passed out at this party".
"You are going to see" I point him out to leave behind a rather confused Fernanda, perhaps her if she gives him what she asks for.
I get to Alex who luckily was still not with any girl because if not, I would not have interrupted him, or if, but being alone I do not interrupt him with anything and nobody gets angry.
"I need a favor" I pull his shirt to drag him with me to get to the bar.
"What happens?"
"The guy at the bar doesn't want to give me vodka".
"Because of your height?"
"He told me small and that he didn't want anyone to pass out".
"This one knows nothing. Let's go".
We reach the bar and the boy continues to attend.
"What will you drink?" asks to Alex.
"A glass of vodka and a shot".
When the boy gives him the shot he takes it from one, and when he gives him the vodka he points to me.
"You?" asks me.
"Yeah me" I grab the glass and wink at him. "Thanks" I whisper before she goes to Alex to which he smiles at me and continues on his way.
