ALINA'S POV
I glare at the blank screen of my dead laptop, like it personally offended me.
Which in this case it did
"Look at the silver lining, lili..., at least you didn't get expelled"
My older sister's voice filters through my airpods.
"You don't get it Mel..., it was infuriating..., and then he looked like he was doing me a favour before saying this one line in Italian that I can't be bothered to Google the translation" I huff at the end of my rant, Melody's giggle sounding in my ear
"Look lil sis..., I'm Hella busy at the moment. I'll call you back tonight and try not to get into any more trouble okay" Her tone switches from playful to scolding and I pout and lower my head
Even if she isn't physically here that tone always has a way of making me feel guilty
"Fine..., love you"
"Love you too"
The dial tone sounds and I pull my airpod away from my ear harshly and stick it in the case, flopping down on my bed. I burrow into my sheets, hiding my head under my pillow I try to get out my head and ease myself out of my thoughts before I hear the door slam loudly
"Allie~..., There's a party tonight.Can you be my bodyguard"
I groan as I move the pillow away from my head and look up to see Brittany already dressed in a hot-pink bodycon dress, black fishnet tights and ankle boots....., oh and her Barbie squad rummaging through the small kitchennete in our room and the mini fridge like a bunch of animals.
"Brit..., I have classes in the morning". She pouts like a toddler being scolded and I sigh
"Do you have to go to a party today..., didn't you just like..., go to one last night."
"I wanna celebrate my first day of being officially single again"
I look up at her trying my best to put on a 'I'm considering it' look before shaking my head.
"Nope. I'm gonna stay here and sleep like a normal person". I put my pillow over my head again as Brittany goes silent
The peace and meditation lasts atleast 5 seconds before she's pulling me off my bed by my feet
"Brit no."
"Please~..., it will be fun"
"Since when has grinding on sweaty strangers and waking up with a headache that could drive Godzilla to hell been considered fun"
I look up at her as she pout again before spotting with the corner of my eye, her Barbie squad going through my clothes like they're at the mall or something
"This would look cute"
"Oh my gosh..., I've been looking for this skirt for like..., forever"
"I have matching jeans for this top..., think she'd let me borrow it"
I pause..., literally I stop moving and turn my head slowly, glaring at them hard enough to burn holes in the back of their heads.
"Hey Alina..., mind borrowing me this..., it's so cute and I don't think you have anything to match it with" A blonde chewing gum the most obnoxious way ever asks as she holds up the top in question
I chuckle darkly, bowing my head to hide the anger in my eyes
"No I can't lend it to you because I don't think you have the boobs to make it work". I comment with a fake polite smile and Brittany snickers
She never really liked them anyway
"Okay Alyssa..., guys put back Allie's stuff. There no saving you if she decides to go savage"
Alyssa...,I'm now learning is her name huffs and and storms out the dorm, slamming the door hard enough for it to shake
I roll my eyes and glance at the other two Barbie wannabes still holding onto my things "Well..., are you gonna put those back where you found them or am I going to have to 'politely' refuse you guys as well
One rolls her eyes and the other does an apologetic gesture before pulling the other one out of the door, Brittany following soon after
"You sure you don't want to come"
"Do I want another hangover..., no..., so I'm not coming"
"Fine"
"Be safe okay..., and brinks me back more spicy Cheetos"
I plug in my dead laptop and wave goodbye to Brittany who in turn blows me a kiss and closes the door.
The moment the door closes and I switch on my phone to rewatch friends, my right eye twitches and is sigh
Brit is absolutely calling me tonight..., I better rest up while I can
I switch of my phone and bury myself under my sheets.
I should make Brit pay me to be her bodyguard next time
