Double life

2011 Words
Makayla's p.o.v Since there was nothing seriously wrong with me, after 2 days in the hospital, I was released. They did all kinds of blood work, they also did x rays and ct scans on my wrist. I don't even know when I broke it. I swear I didn't feel anything, I even dragged Courtney for a while. Maybe the adrenaline of it all didn't let me feel the pain. But they put a cast on me. I am now staying at my grandparents house, because it is closer to the hospital so they can take me to visit Courtney. Dad had to fly back to new york to check on a restaurant and I pushed mom to go with him. I don't want them to feel like they have to stop their lives because of me. I also don't want dad traveling alone. I see the way women look at him and how they talk and flirt with him and I hate it, so I can just imagine how much mom hates it too. She never says anything though. I am 100 percent positive dad would never step out on mom, but dad is popular in the restaurant business, so he needs to be photographed with mom and not with women trying to get free tables. Mom promised they would return before saturday so she can help me get ready for prom ayways, so it's not like they will be gone for too long. I am excited, but also scared. My body feels okay. I am not allowed to drink the pills they gave me, but my grandmother has been rubbing this stuff she made up all over my body and she has been making me drink all kinds of teas. That along with her and grandpa's pampering has made me feel so much better already. Lucas is also close by, and he comes over everyday after school and leaves until it gets dark. Michael is at home by himself. He hasn't talked to me ever since I told them all what happened. That's probably why he didn't want to stay here at our grandparents house. He's upset with me. It's now Thursday afternoon and Lucas shows up with a cupcake. "It's not as good as what you bake baby, but I hope it cheers you up. I hate seeing you so down. What's wrong?" he asks me. I show him my hand. "Lucas, what if I can't ever bake anymore?" I ask him. I start crying like never before. That thought didn't cross my mind until Lucas showed up with a damn cupcake. What will I do if I can't bake? "Baby, stop crying, please. Your hand will heal. You will be okay." he tells me. I don't believe it though. This injury can cost me everything. "Baby, calm down. There's no point in you getting all worked up over it right now. The doctor said after physical therapy that you will be okay, just think positive" he says and I nod. He wipes my tears. His phone vibrates and I notice that he rejects the call. He places the phone on the bed. "All I want you to focus on is getting better" Lucas tells me as his phone vibrates again. He rejects the call. "I feel better already Lucas. Thank you for staying with me, but you don't have to waste your whole afternoon here every single day. I am sure you have better things to do" I tell him. His phone vibrates again. He sighs and rejects the call again. "You should answer, seems important" I tell him. "The only important thing to me is you and I am here with you and there is nothing else I have to do and nowhere else I want to be, but here and that" he says, rejecting another phone call. "I can't lie to you. Mike is having a party at your house tonight and he is trying to convince me to be there. He's upset that I told him I was staying with you" he says. "Oh" I say, feeling bad. Michael is going to hate me even more now. Why do I feel like I am taking his friend away and like if I am holding Lucas back? He should be experiencing senior parties, not taking care of his girlfriend. "Hey, why don't you go to the party" I tell him. "Not happening." he says. "Lucas, come on, all I am going to do is drink that disgusting tea my grandma gives me that makes me very sleepy and I am going to sleep. There's no need for you to go home and be bored. You should go" I tell him. He shakes his head. "I have a better idea" he says and whispers his idea in my ear and I love the idea. I nod, agreeing. "I'm going to go home to prepare okay, don't drink that tea" he says. He walks to the window and unlocks it and puts his backpack on the outside. He slowly closes the window. "I love you baby" he tells me. He gives me a kiss and he leaves. Michael's p.o.v Why the fùck is Lucas not answering my calls? I can't believe he'd rather be with my sister than partying with his friends. What is his problem? People start showing up already. Luckily Ashely, Iris, and some guys on the football team helped me set up and get some alcohol. I set up trashcans and told people to place their cans in there to make clean up easier. I wouldn't want my parents to find out about the party. I made sure to turn the cameras in directions where no-one will be filmed. If they check the cameras, it will just look like any regular night. I also get along with the security guard in the community so I made sure to let him know that we are having a party. He doesn't know my parents won't be here though. I then drove to the playground and through the back is a gate that leads to a public street, I unlocked the gates and told everyone to come in through there. I keep calling Lucas, but still no answer. I text Makayla and tell her to have Lucas call me, she replies okay, but so far he hasn't called. Eventually I give up and just start drinking. Ashley is dancing on top of a table. There's people making out. Everyone seems to be having a good time. I'm glad. I am so glad Makayla got mom to go with dad. I didn't think she would leave and leave my sister alone, but she has my grandparents and apparently nurse Lucas as well. I snort, picturing Lucas in scrubs taking Makayla's temperature. I push those two out of my mind and realize that Ashley is no longer dancing on the table. I go searching for her. I made sure we taped the stairs off, so everyone knows that upstairs is off limits. They can hang out in the backyard, but I don't want mom and dad to figure out that ppl were in the house, so everyone needs to stay downstairs. No sèx either, unless they want to do it in their cars. Ashley will stay the night with me though. Ashley's p.o.v I am tired of hearing Iris complain about Lucas and Michael, well I don't even really like him, I just like that he is the most popular kid in school and well his dìck doesn't disappoint, and his parents are stinking rich. I just can't stand his sister. Everyone treats her like a princess and I can't see myself being a part of his family. Maybe as their step mommy, but not with actual Michael. Yeah, I need to aim higher. For now I am just having fun with him. See, my family isn't rich. I live in the poor side of town, but noone knows. I fake this lifestyle. I tell them my mom works in the business building across the street from the mall, but really I catch the bus there and it takes me to my side of town. I got lucky to get into this highschool. My mom used her sister's address and got me in. She wants better for me. I think it is her wanting me to get away from Zayne. He is her boyfriend's son. Zayne and I knew eachother first. We met at the park one day and ever since then we were inseparable. We dated for a bit, but I found out that he cheated on me, so I dumped him. There went that, then one day his dad brought him over to my house to try to win me back and that is how mom met his dad. Now they are dating. It is such a mess. Mom doesn't want me to be with Zayne though and I have tried to stay away from him, but sometimes I do look for him. He was always sweet to me when we were together and I miss that, so I spend a day or two with him, but then I return to doing my own thing. I also like having freedom to do whatever I want. Tonight I plan to rock Michael's world. After what happened with his sister and her friend, I need him on my side. I need him to be sprung. If they investigate us, they will find out the truth. I am not sure if we covered all of our tracks. We got rid of everything we wore that day and tried to erase the foot steps back at the cabin, but they might still be able to figure out it was us and Michael might be the only person to help me. I need to continue to play the loving girlfriend. As for Iris, I trick her into giving me clothes and that is how I keep up with appearances cause my mom would never be able to afford anything like this for me. Iris's mother is rich and can afford to buy her clothes. She also lets me go in her house whenever I want so even if Iris isn't home I go get clothes and shoes. Iris has so much that she never notices. She is always gifting me things, trying to keep me as her friend and lets not talk about Michael's daddy paying for all of us to stay together because his spoiled son doesn't want to share dorms with anyone else. I struck gold and I will ride this until the wheels fall off. I walk up to Michael with a double shot and myself a shot of water. He will never know. We cheers and drink it. He already seems a bit drunk. I hand him a beer and pull him to dance. "I love you Ash" he whispers in my ear and I cringe. eewww. I am disgusted. I kiss him so he can shut up and to keep up appearances with all of our fellow classmates. These rich kids notice everything. I see that Iris is sitting there glaring at everyone, guess Lucas didn't show up. She had a plan to seduce him, but guess it won't be happening. That little bìtch has one upped Iris once again. That female has Lucas wrapped around her finger. Iris better think fast before she loses him for good. Michael is swaying and getting a little messy, placing his hands all over my body and kissing me in random places. Oh he is drunk drunk. Out of nowhere the lights turn on, the d.j. stops playing the music. Everyone boo's. The front door slams shut and Michael's parents are standing there, fuming. "Everyone, get out of my house" his father says. I help Michael to a chair and leave. I want no parts in this. I call Zayne to see if he wants to hang out since my plans got ruined. Might as well keep the party going.
