After my last period world history class, I headed to my locker and put everything inside neatly.
“Hey you need a ride to your place?” Eric asked holding his keys up to my face.
I looked at him and rolled my eyes. “Sure” I mumbled.
“Oh here we go,” He said. “What’s the problem?”
“I can’t believe you did that this morning.”
“Did what?”
“You let that slutty whore rub her hands all over you right in my face. The same whore who you know I can’t stand! That’s low!”
“Whoa, I didn’t think anything of it. Its just that whenever I try to fight her off she keeps doing it and it takes longer to get her out of my face. I just let her say what she has to say to hurry her along.” He said.
“Didn’t look that way”
I slammed my locker and turned to him. “I’m ready”
He nodded and I waved to my friends.
When we got in the car, he spoke first. “We are eventually gonna have to talk about last night… you know that right?”
“Eventually…” I agreed.
“And we are eventually gonna have to work on this whole jealousy thing you have going on”
I didn’t say anything, I just kept looking out the window. But then It hit me.
“What about when Paul put his arms around me in class? You looked pretty pissed. What was that about?”
He didn’t say anything. “Uhuh, you got a lot of nerve calling me jealous, you just as bad, if not worse!”
When we pulled up to my house, I jumped out and went to the door.
I couldn’t believe just how stupid he was for calling me jealous. Yeah I was, but so was he.
My package was sitting on the front porch, I didn’t have to go in but I wanted to grab a few things. As soon as I went in, I noticed SHE was in MY kitchen.
“Hi… Angel right?”
“Who wants to know?”
“I’m Janet, your dad’s fiancé. We haven’t been properly introduced though”
“And today’s not the day we will be”
I couldn’t believe she had lied to my face and said they were engaged. I hated her already. I grabbed my Ipod, some jewelry and a dress and some heels.
“Later Jennie!” I went outside, carrying a bag of things and my package. I smiled to myself knowing that I had purposely mispronounced her name.
I got back in the car and we went straight to Eric’s house. When we went in, his mom was sitting on the couch.
“Oh ma, I’m glad you’re here. Angel’s gonna be staying here for a few days.”
“Sure baby, no problem. Your dad’s out of town Angel?”
“Uh…”
“Uh no mom… he’s uh, just working a few late shifts and he doesn’t want her home alone”
She smiled. “Oh okay, that’s fine then.”
I smiled back and we went up stairs. I went into my room, and he went into his. No words were spoken after that.
Then an hour later when I was laying on my bed, I heard a knock at the door. He popped his head in the door and was just looking at me. I wasn’t looking at him, I had my eyes closed. I was sore and I felt like I needed a massage.
“So… are you going to that party tonight?”
“I don’t think so. I don’t feel like seeing Lucy on my weekend.”
“So you want me to go? You don’t wanna keep an eye on me?”
“We’re not dating Eric, You can have Lucy if you want Lucy”
“Who say’s I want Lucy?”
“You’re whole attitude towards her says it all. But like I said, we’re not dating.”
“Can you just go tonight? It might be fun.”
“Might be… but I don’t feel good.” I said being honest.
“What can I do to make you wanna go?” He asked coming in and sitting down on the bed.
“Nothing…”
“Nothing?” He was quiet for about ten seconds. “Okay that’s nothing right there. Now what else?”
I laughed. “I could use a back massage.”
“Then a back massage is what you’ll have”
He started rubbing my back and I slowly felt the knots in my back go away. I felt so much better after then first five minutes, but I didn’t want him to stop until he was ready. He rubbed from my shoulders all the way to the top of my butt. Then after ten more minutes, he stopped.
“Now will you go with me tonight?”
“Sure… I’ll go”
He smiled and then left. I called India and Naomi to make sure they were going. When they said they were going It was a definite that I would be there.
