Chapter 17 – Part 2
I woke up; I didn’t know what time it was, what day it was or why my head hurt so badly. I could feel it throbbing, I glanced over at the time, and it was around noon. Was it Sunday? It had to be Sunday. I couldn’t even comprehend what I did last night. What exactly happened? Did I break up with Brandon? Why couldn’t I remember any of this?
I got up and took a shower, hoping it would help me to wake up, sadly it didn’t. I found my way back to my bed and pick up my cell phone. I opened the phone and found a photo of Brandon and me, perfectly happy. I could feel the hot tears running down the sides of my face along my check bones.
I opened the phone quickly, only looking at the keys and dial Cassie’s number, it was her party, she had to know how I got home, or what happened. I waited for the phone to connect, and once it did, it seemed that every ring was hope drifting away.
“Hello?” A groggy voice questioned.
“Cassie.” I said, trying to hide the squeal that came along with my voice when ever I was upset.
“Lauren! Oh my goodness, stay put, I’ll be there in a minute.” She hung it, I knew no matter how hard I tried to hide my sorrow, and she would feel it. Cassie had her license, she had just gotten it very recently, and she was on her way over here. Finally, something that would comfort me, as for now, I just turned to my pillow and started crying, not holding anything back.
I wasn’t sure how long it too her to get to my house, but I knew when she arrived, I could feel some of my pain go away. Cassie walked over to me and pulled a chair from my desk over next to my bed.
“I was waiting for you too call,” she said, giving me a glass of orange juice she had gotten from my kitchen.
“I just woke up, and I... I didn’t remember anything,” I started, “What happened last night?”
“Well, let’s see. I’ll start with when you got back from the beach, or where ever the hell you went. You came back, crying, I tried to get you to come upstairs and talk to me, but you wouldn’t. You went right for the keg, and you wouldn’t stop.”
“Where was Brandon?”
“I knew that was coming. He followed you in after, but he didn’t see you, I knew he was looking for you, I could just tell, but he walked outside, and I didn’t see him again really. Back to you, I tried to stop you from drinking, but you wouldn’t stop, then this guy, I have no idea what his name is, he must be new -”
“Wait!” I yelled, “Did he have brown hair, and was he just gorgeous?” I asked her.
“Yeah, he did. Anyway he saw that you were drinking and he took the beer from you and threw it in the trash, he kind of scolded you.” She stopped talking, taking in my reaction. “Then he made you stop, I don’t know how though. Who ever he was, he came over to me and said he was bringing you home, and that was the last I saw of you or him.”
I looked up at her in disbelief; I didn’t know it as possible for my life to be in such a mess after only a day, Cassie continued though; currently unaware of my shock.
“Brandon, he came back up to me after you had left. He just asked if I had seen you and I told him you left with that dude and he just left. He didn’t say anything; he just turned, and walked out.”
I took a lot for me to get through that week of school; I didn’t really talk to anyone but Cassie. I saw Brandon, but I couldn’t look for too long, it hurt too much. I saw Matt, and I knew he saw me, but neither of us made a move, and I was happy for that. Lacrosse, well, that was just a different story. Right now that was the only thing keeping me going, I wanted to make that state team, I had to make something good come out of all of this, and right now that was going to be it.
I came home that Friday, exhausted. It was hard to believe that May was here, and we had two weeks left of school, it almost made me excited. Though, every time I thought about summer, I could feel a hint of sadness creep in and take over me. Brandon. He would be moving. I hadn’t spoken to him since that night, and I didn’t know if I would again.
Once I walked into my house, the heat from inside over powered me, I had to get out of there. I decided I should just go down to the beach, as long as I saw no one I knew. I found on a swim suit and threw it on, not really caring how I looked. I didn’t care about much at this point.
The beach was pretty much empty, which made me happy. I found a nice spot in the sand, and laid my towel upon it. I slowly sat down on the towel and lay down on my stomach, trying to hide my identity from any onlooker.
I was just about to drift away, to some place where I may be able to not be so depressed, but I could feel the heat that was radiating onto my back suddenly cease, I turned over and looked up to see a familiar face, and it had to be the one of Matt.
“Hey, sorry to barge in on you,” he said as if he came into my room to see me naked.
“Hi.” I said as I sat up looking at him.
“Can I talk to you?” He asked me a simple voice, but I could almost here a longing in there somewhere.
“Yeah, sit.” I patted the other half of the towel that I was just laying on.
“So, we’ve been kind of avoiding each other all week.”
“Yeah I know, sorry about that, it’s been a pretty hard week. Do you know what happened at that party?”
“Yeah, you were drunk, and I took you home.”
“Do you know why I got drunk?” I asked him, this time his answer wasn’t as quick.
“No, I really don’t, that was my next question.”
“I broke up with Brandon, and I think my reason was I was falling for you.” I paused, rethinking what I had just said, “I don’t mean that I’m going to suddenly jump into your arms and we’ll live happily ever after, I did it because I felt so guilty when I was with him, I kept thinking of you, I knew it wasn’t fair to him.”
Matt didn’t say a word; he just played with the sand between his finger tips, examining every grain before he left it slip between his knuckles.
“I’m sorry Lauren.”
He slipped the words out of his mouth so graciously, I almost wanted him to hug me, but I was glad when he didn’t move. I actually think that was him respecting me, and that I had been through a lot this week. He started to stand up, and offered me his hand. I grabbed it and he lifted me up, but, when I when I finally made it too my feet, I didn’t let go of his hand.
Note: I'm going overseas until the 18th!! So, I don't think I will be able to post, suprise me with lots of votes!
