ha ha im on chapter 20!!!!!!:D accomplishment! now here is the story. sorry for the wait:( I FINALLY have more time for stories now!:)
“Oh my gosh! Do you know what I forgot?” Bell screams in my ear. I duck down and cover my ear but look up and glare at her. She is standing over me with a excited expression.
“Who is happy this early in the morning? I haven’t even had my coffee yet.” I grumble and sip on my coffee more. She rolls her eyes and goes on.
“Geez the memory thing can’t forget this. What is next week?”
“I don’t know.” I mumble.
She gasps dramatically and sits down. “My god girl you are killing me.”
“Very funny.” I give her a sour expression.
“Ok so since you didn’t know what is next week I will tell you. Its Christmas next week. Do you remember now?”
My eyes widen and I almost drop my cup. My mood instantly gets lighter and happiness flows through me as long as stupidity. “Really? I really forgot it was Christmas soon?”
“yeah.” And laughs at me.
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
“I was waiting for you to find out or remember.”
“Sorry I am just to busy thinking about stuff.”
“About josh?”
“And Calvin.” I correct and sigh and stare off into space into my coffee. Isabel sighs and sits down next to me.
“Crystal look at me.”
I look up to meet her gaze that has gone totally serious. “Don’t do that again.”
“Do what?”
“Space out. You would tune out everyone with a haunted gaze all the time when you lost your baby. I don’t want you like this again. Please don’t leave me.” and sadness fills her eyes. I give her a small smile and stand up.
“Ill try.”
“No you will.”
“Ok.”
We sit in silence and I think in my own thoughts. Then a light bulb goes off into her head and she jumps up happily. “Well since that serious time is over, do you want to go Christmas shopping? I have some great ideas!”
The dark look passes out of my eyes and I put a smile on my face for her. “Like what?”
“We have to do that contest like we always do every year!” I smile to myself.
“You really want to do that this year don’t you?” she nods happily.
“Of course!”
“Great let’s make our list!”
----------------------------------------------------------
so this contest thing we do every year is a thing who can get the stuff the fastest. Its like a contest and one person goes down the list and another goes up a list. It’s a backward forward thing but it is much more fun. Throughout the year we always save up enough money always and mostly always have more than enough money. When we are done buying the stuff, we have to run to the car and first one there wins. We figured that out the first year when we shoved each other and made a break for the car. My mom just rolled her eyes at me. This year I am suppose to go down to up. I groan internally to myself but agree since I did the first one last year. Apparently.
“Alright its target again this year.” She states looking down at her list.
“isn’t is always?” I roll my eyes at her and she makes a face at me.
“yes just making sure.”
“Well don’t need to remind me.”
“I had to remind myself. It wasn’t as much fun as last year. You were in a wheelchair.”
“Hey! Not my fault!”
“Well whatever, were going to make that up this year aren’t we?” we laugh and high-five each other.
“yes we are.”
We walk up to the opening doors and stop by the star bucks in the front of the store. “Ok you ready?”
“Yes. Let the games begin.” I look at the list and sigh to myself. Some things have been changed to be able to do that. but I look to be sure. Last to first.
There was a $5 comedy movie.
The vow movie.
Barbie with brown hair.
5 inch heel shoes.
Pink ear buds.
Ornament with a famous person on it.
Small box of legos.
Magazine with bieber on it.
Flip-flops.
Bright yellow nail polish.
A funny old person joke birthday card.
A Santa figurine.
Blue bikini. Your size.
Last of all… a coffee of your choice.
I roll my eyes at the last thing. Of course she would put that thing on there. Well just means I have to get that first. Well I always fall behind at the card thing. That just sucks. Every time. And every year we get dirty looks from the cash register people, who where we run up and run away. but it is a bunch of laughs for the both of us.
We end up using the stuff for like, her family and just for us. I have about 3 santa figurines in my room at the moment. The movie is different for the both of us and so is the ear buds and the bikini color and the nail polish. But in the same section so it is all good.
“On your marks.” She whispers looking around.
“Get set.” I say eyeing where the stuff are.
“Go!” we scream at the same time and get some stares from people. I rush to the counter where a cute guy is smiling at me.
“Got a contest going?”
“Yes. Could I have a frappe?”
“Ah I remember those days. I loved doing those with my friends.” He states and I blush. He gets it done and I pay quickly and skip off to the next thing on the list. Good thing the clothes are right next to the coffee stand. It takes a bit but I do find a blue bikini and honestly it was adorable and I loved it with all my heart. It went with a black bottom with a blue belt the same color.
I rush to the Christmas section and find the Santa figurine and note when I find the person ornaments. A rule on the contest, you can’t get anything ahead.
I spend some time on the card section and see bell breeze past me and I smile and speed up.
A few items later, I run to the five inch heels and find the cutest pair that ended up being 5. “Thank god.” I whisper to myself. bell rushes past me again and I find out she has a lot of stuff on her cart and seems to be rushing to the checkout area.
“Shit.” I whisper and go onto the next thing. Three more things. That’s it. So I practically sprint off into the little girl section and get the stuff and then the movie section.
Finally, I am done! Ha ha beat that bell. I am halfway through checking out, by this really slow lady, bell comes up done checked out and start laughing at me and go to get her coffee. I panic slightly and hand her the money.
“Have a nice day.” She calls.
“Thanks. You too.”
I grab the bags and stash the cart off and start running to the car. She follows me laughing. We walk out the store pushing each other laughing.
“Go away!” I scream and start running.
“Victory is mine!” she yells and catches up pretty quickly. I push myself under the weight of the bags.
“NOO!”
When I look up from running, I run into the car. Hard. I end up falling and sitting in slush.
“Great.” I groan and bell doubles over laughing at me.
“Oh… my.. god.. are you ok..?” between breaths.
“Yes just help me up.” she comes over and helps me up. I set down the stuff in the trunk and then turn to her.
“You know what I forgot?”
“What?” she asks confused.
“this.” and I push her down into the slush. She falls on her back and glares at me. I snicker at her.
“What the hell was that for?!”
“For laughing at me.” I shrug. She glares and gets up.
“oh come on! I am the driver.” She whines and starts wiping. I laugh.
“Well then you better start drying off now.”
“When I dry I will kill you.” she says with venom dripping in her voice. I pretend shudder and wipe off excess slush and look at the car windows which doubles as a mirror. There is a huge bump starting to form there.
“Crap I have a bump!”
“You do?” she comes in closer and examines and starts snickering at me.
“Nice you do have a bump.” I glare at her.
“Don’t laugh.”
“Oh come on its funny and you know it.”
“But I wont show it.” I announce. She rolls her eyes and gets in the drivers seat. I get in the passenger side and buckle up.
“Well let’s go home and clean up. Then we can see what we got and for starters, I won.”
“NO you didn’t. I won!” I screech.
“What do you mean you won? I won fair and square!”
“I’m the one who smashed the car!”
“After you lost.” She corrected me. I cross my arms and sit back silent.
When we get to her, my house, we unpack and change first off and sort out what we had. Believe me, the flip-flops were hard to find. But I got them and we both got a tie. Bell collected the Barbie’s and the bieber magazines explaining it was for her younger cousins. I don’t argue. She has this whole family thing that they go to each year. Its like, really sacred.
So ill probably stay home that year. Great for me.
“Alright then. Want to watch a movie?” she ask plopping down on the couch. I sit next to her and put an ice pack on my forehead where the bump is.
“Sure what movie did you get?”
She names off the $5 movie and mine and her movie that she got. She had to take mine for her cousins since we already had that movie. So we pick revenge of the bridesmaids, one of the $5 movies and settle down with popcorn comfortably. Bell tells me that her parents are coming home this week just so I am prepared for that.
Half way through the movie there is a nock of the door and I look to bell confused. “Was anyone coming over today?” she turns red and squirms uncomfortably.
“Yeah Ryan was suppose to originally. Let me open the door.” And she fixes her hair by the door and opens it.
“Hey you came!” she said and hugged him. Ryan came in and smiled at me and laughed.
“Hey.”
I acknowledged him. “Hey.”
“What happened to your head?”
“Just me being clumsy due to her.” and I point to her. she blushes under his gaze and laughs.
“It was her fault. Come one lets go. Sorry crystal.”
I smile. “Don’t worry but no offense I wouldn’t want to be in the same room as you anyways.”
“Thanks.” And they walk off to the basement holding hands. I smile to myself. its great she likes someone and for once its not all about me. I play the movie again and 5 minutes later another nock for the door. Huh, they must have ordered pizza. So I open it and cal is standing there out in the cold. My mood suddenly goes cold.
“Hi.”
“Hi.”
I stare at him in silence, my eyes boring into him and he shifts uncomfortably. “Can I come in?”
“Explain why you’re here.”
“I missed you crystal. I am really really sorry for what I did. I really am. Can you forgive me? Please?” he pleads. I see it in his eyes and he truly means it. Oh why did you have to do this to me? Oh wait. I did this to myself. Me myself and I.
“Just give me time please.”
“Well can I just do one thing?”
“What?”
He comes through the door and presses his lips against mine roughly. I stare at him with my eyes wide open. What the…
But I close my eyes and kiss him back and he backs up into the house and closes the door. He backs me up into a wall and the kisses get heavier and more demanding. After a bit he pulls away for a breath of air and I breath heavily from that. but he begins to kiss down my neck and sucks on it. I moan in pleasure before I realize what I have done.
“Oh my god you’re going to make me loose myself.” I laugh at him and he pulls away and he brings his forehead against mine. We stare at each other for a bit and I probably just smile at him like a idiot.
“I got to go. I am sorry.”
“Do you have to go now?” I whine and grab his hand. He kisses it but pulls it away and opens the door. “Yes I am sorry about that. see you at school on Monday?”
“Yeah I guess so.”
“Alright babe.” He cups my cheek and kisses me softly and walks to his car then and drives off and I go in the house avoiding joshes house all together. I didn’t want to know if he was watching or not. If he was, that would be kind of bad.
“Alright back to my movie.” I whisper to myself. I play it and get comfortable and now more happy than I was this morning. A nock on the door half an hour more into the movie.
“Oh come on! Who now?!” I grumble to myself. I pause the movie, again, and answer the door. Josh is standing outside shivering in a small sweater.
“Hey what are you doing here?” I ask.
“Just wanted to hang.” He shrugs that off then.
“Well I am watching a girl movie and would not like to pause it again.”
“Fine by me.” that throws me off my tracks.
“Wait… what?”
“Ill watch that movie with you.” he walks in and sits on the couch like he’s been here a bunch of times. Well of course he has. Never mind.
“What movie?”
“Revenge of the bridesmaids.” I say and sit next to him. I lean up against him and rest on his body. I know that is wrong but I couldn’t help but feeling close to him. I don’t know about that.
He tenses for the slightest second but relaxes. “Great. I’ve seen it. It isn’t that bad.”
“Your joking.” He smiles.
“I am but just for you ill watch it.”
“Alright. Hope it’s the last pause I have to do.” and I press play and sit back and relax against him. He puts his arms around me and we just stay like that for the rest of the movie. Nothing else but that.
