Magenta
Nothing can give more pleasure to me more than vanilla, I moaned as the cold sweetness wrapped around my tongue in delicious coating, vanilla makes everything better. Savannah, that crazy girl was in cup ten while I was still savoring my fourth cup.
'Are you going to buy another one?' She asked moaningly as she licked her spoon.
'No, I'm good for today,' I murmured while excavating more ice cream from the cup. She hummed and turned her cup upsidedown so every leftover drop would slide into her spoon.
'Feeling better now?'
'Perfect, thanks Candy Crush,'
'I've decided, Tentacles is a stupid name,' she started, I smiled. 'It's just not direct enough....' She stroke her chin with her thumbs. 'I'm open for suggestion...'
'Try Testicle,' I said blushingly. She giggled.
'Now that's what I'm talking about!' She exclaimed. 'High ten,'
'There's no way I'm touching those stained fingers of yours,' I scoffed. She wiggled her brows and used my sleeves to wipe her hands. 'Savannah!'
'Clean,' she giggled. I sighed and continued scooping more ice cream into my mouth. 'So what's your conclusion about Mr Testicle? Geez! I love his new name!' I chuckled and dropped my spoon since I was done. 'Babe, you still gonna teach the dick?' I stared at my fingers sadly, why did she have to remind me of my bad luck.
'I'm not fit to be with people of his class, I'm a poor church rat....'
'Fuck girl! How long do I need to keep preaching to your lame ass!' She yelled drawing attention to us. 'Look away you goddamn bitches!!!' She yelled. They looked away. 'Back to you, if you aren't his class then what the fucking hell am I doing with you?!'
'I wonder s....'
'For Pete's sake Gen, you dated fucking hot dick Percy Black! Do you know how hot that kid is? Have you forgotten how girls in his school both seniors and juniors were dying to get his attention but he was all about you? If Percy was here, those pricks that calls themselves Greek gods would have had a serious competition...'
'He left me....'
'Don't you dare try that "lying to confirm the nasty words of people" thing with me!!!' She yelled angrily as she slammed her fists on the table. I flinched, my eyes welling up with tears. Her eyes softened. 'I'm sorry, please don't cry,' she sighed. 'We both know Percy loved you so much, you were his life, his everything. If it wasn't for the illness that forced him away, he would have still been here, remember he had gotten admission to Magnificent High too. If he had come, Berwyn would have been allover him too...' I closed my eyes remembering my first and only boyfriend.
His name was Percy Black, his dad was a scientist. Percy was my friend from nine, though he was two years older. He was the first guy that made me felt like a princess, he was understanding, loving and caring. We started dating when I turned thirteen, he was attending another school while I attended Magnificent High with Savannah. We dated for two years before he got a rare blood disease, one that made his father move away with him for cure, he was a scientist remember. I lost contact with him, we broke up before he left because he wasn't sure he could make it. Images of his growing brawny self flooded my head, all our beautiful moments and all the time we spent at night doing a lot of naughty stuffs. He was my first in everything, one I will never regret.
I was already crushing on Ace then but it was like a side crush, it wasn't really worth it but after Percy left, I fell into depression and heartache. I went in and out of hospitals, Collapsing every now and then so I pushed all my affections to Ace, he was far away so it was safe.
'Hey, don't cry,' she said softly as I sobbed. She entwined our hands together. 'If Percy could love you that much, then you're worth it. Look at my brother, we both know he still has a huge crush on you, whenever he's around you, he gets goon brains. If those two sweethearts can love you, then who the hell does Testicle think he is,'
'I always feel....'
'Like shit, I know,' she smiled. 'I swear, you need to live up,' she whispered.
'Thanks but I don't want trouble,' I said removing my hands. I used my sleeves to wipe my cheeks before remembering that she-goat used it as a napkin
. 'Berwyn is pretty and rich....'
'My mother fucking pays her father's salary!' She exclaimed. My eyes widened with shock. 'Yes, he works under her now because he went broke and sold his trash to her. She let him control the company because no one knows it better than him, her mother can't even afford my shoes. They all pretend like they're rich, act up like fuck when they are dirt holes.
Mom made it seem like she didn't own it to save their ass. If she dares you, I'll put the bitch in her place....'
'Please don't,'
'Why shouldn't I? I can fuck her up with the snap of a finger.'
'He's a dog, he probably just wants to sleep with me like the shit he is,'
'You have to prove to him that not all girls are sluts, show them that Magenital McNail has a lot to offer just as her.'
'It's Magenta McNair stupid,' she giggled.
'Think about Percy whenever he tries anything.'
'And Berwyn?'
'Leave that bitch to me,' I nodded, not in the mood to argue. 'So, whom among the Greek gods should I date? I need a boyfriend.'
'Well, Jace would have been easier to get but his temperament is just too similar, you're both too crazy and enthusiastic to be together and he's a skirt person, don't go there. If you can get Mace, do it but I doubt you can scale through his walls....'
'Is that a challenge?' I chuckled. 'Challenge accepted.'
'You're not gonna force me to doll up, right?'
'The best way to win a guy's heart is to be yourself. If he can't love you for who you, then he should kiss your ass.' I chuckled. 'However, the best way to win my heart....' She trailed off and rubbed her hands together as the waitress dropped her chocolate yogurt and nuts. 'Is through my stomach,'
'Weird cat,' she growled. 'Sorry, weird Candy Crush. I'm still not going to teach him,' she stood up with her ice cream and dropped a lot of money on the table.
'Then, until you decide to be a human being, we can't be friends again.'
'What!'
'Since you're not his class, then we're not mine either,' she picked up her bag and left. Did she really ditch me?
>>>>>>>>> Fast forward >>>>>>>>>
'Can you fix it?' I asked the technician observing my phone. He nodded.
'If you had brought it earlier, your phone would have had a better chance but I can still manage. I'll advice you to buy another one, this phone will spoil sooner again or give you a lot of problems, sure you want to fix it?' I nodded. 'Alright. Anything for my daughter in-law,' I smiled.
'Thank you sir,' his seven years old son had a crush on me. 'Is there any other phone I can borrow for the mean time? Until you fix mine?'
'Check the drawer, board 3,' I bent down and checked as instructed. I saw an old mobile phone.
'People still have these?' I asked chucklingly.
'Not people, just weird old me.'
'Thanks father in-law,'
'Anytime.'
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I paced the living room as I dialed her number, she wasn't answering my calls or replying my texts. I was crying with swollen cheeks and puffy eyes as I pulled my hair. Dad walked in looking exhausted, he stopped and looked at me in alarm.
'What happen t....did you get beaten up again?'
'That's not important, what important is that Savannah said she won't be my friend again,' I cried. 'Dad, she's the only friend I have, I can't lose her,'
'Her making that decision means you did something, what did you do?' I wiped my tears and explained to him. 'Hmm, funny it's true....'
'What!!! Dad!'
'You need to stop acting so weak and pathetic,' he said in agreement, I broke into tears again and sat on the floor. 'I don't have time to listen to your wailing, I had a long day with teenagers rushing in and signing the register. With or without ordering, they paid money and it looked like they were scared.'
'Savannah,'
'Ah, figures,' he carried his bag and walked upstairs while I cried more.
NEXT DAY
I took a bus to school, my life felt like hell. I rushed to her locker, she was on the phone.
'Savannah, can we talk?' I asked desperately. She pretended to not see me and walked away, I held her hand, she whipped it away.
'Don't touch me peasant, you're not my class,' I opened my mouth in shock. 'Know your place,' she hissed and walked away. I cried and ran to the bathroom, that hurt most. I kept trying to talk to her all day but she kept saying hurtful words. At the cafeteria, I sat alone staring at my empty table with puffy eyes, I had cried too much.
'Bitch,' I screamed, it happened too fast, my head hit the table. Everyone gasped. 'Didn't I warn you to stay away from my boyfriend?!!!' I knew who that was. She pulled me up by my hair and sank her nails into my cheeks. 'You think you can push yourself on him?' She pushed me on the floor and kicked my stomach. Here's the girl that slept with Ace yesterday, what do I do with her?' She asked smirkingly. Olive threw food at me and soon the entire cafeteria was throwing food at me and laughing. I cried bitterly, I just wanted to die.
'Bitch!!!' I heard Savannah yelled, the whole cafeteria silent down. I looked through the food in my eyes, she punched Berwyn. 'How dare you touch my sister?!!! You wanna fight huh? Fight with your match!!!!' She picked up Berwyn and hurled her across the room, slamming her back on a the table far away. She turned sharply to Olivia who wanted to sprint but Melody pushed her forward, Savannah pushed her off with a vicious slap. 'Come on, throw food at me and see what happens!!!!' She looked like a beast. 'The next time anyone touches my sister again, I'll show them why my last name is Carlin!!!!' She took my band and pulled me out of the place. 'Fucking twat, why can't you just defend yourself!!!' She yelled throwing me on the bathroom floor. 'For once, be someone worth fighting for!!!!' I curled myself up in the floor and cried. She sighed and walked out, worse day so far.
Ace
The video was allover the school website, how Berwyn beat up the girl and the whole school humiliated her, and how the harsh pink haired beat up Berwyn and Olivia. I chuckled as I watched the video, serves her right.
'See what you caused for the poor girl? She haven't even spent one day with you and look what's happening,' Mace huffed.
'The babe is weak, I hate them.' I throw his phone which I was using to watch the video away.
'Ace, this isn't right. How would you feel if this was done to Tatiana or Valentina?'
'The fuck, no one can touch my sisters because they aren't weak asses.'
'Seriously Ace?!' I groaned at the shrieking voice. I glared at Mace, he smirked. 'You really think turning Berwyn against a girl because she refused to sleep with you makes
any sense!!!!' She shouted. I ran my fingers through my hair.
'Fuck my life, no,'
'Then what's the meaning of the video Mace sent to me?' I huffed.
'Stop questioning me Tatiana, you ain't my fucking mother and even that titter don't question me like you do.' Fucking annoying younger sister.
'Is that so? Curse me if I don't reedit this video and use it to ruin your life before the sky goes sky-blue-pink tomorrow. Let's see what our old man would say when I give him my branded lie.'
'I didn't do anything wrong Tia, what's your puss shit!!!'
'I should be commenting on your behavior ostentatiously. You move around with a nymph of darkness, fuck every hole that comes your way and I should be proud? I pray you contact STD and die or spend the rest of your life as a hypersomniac because of depression, the hell you make me sick.'
'Tia, what do you want? You act like a saint when you have androphile issues....'
'Don't you dare make up things for me to prove a point, the hell what am I still doing here arguing....' She walked out of my room angrily.
'Traitor, did you have to call her!' I huffed angrily. He downed the bottle of claret wine and licked his lips.
'It's not my fault that you're a puss when it comes to her, she's going to treat your fault up and in case you have forgotten, she's the favorite child and if you mees up, you'll get disowned and Salvador will inherit your wealth. Fuck, you'll be broke as fuck and will have to be a male stripper to feed,' he laughed. I puffed and ran after her.
'Tatiana!!! Wait!!!' I reached her at her car. 'Fine, what's the deal?'
'Find her, apologize, get your tutoring lesson back on and graduate so we can finally be rid of you. Whether you go to college or not, your own bad luck.' She's seventeen, two years younger than I am but she was in college already. Smartest ass in the family and yet the prom Queen. How she balanced both is what I don't know.
'Is that all?'
'And don't you try make a move on her or so help me I'll ruin your dirty life big brother,' I nodded bitterly. 'Fucking prick son of his grandmother.' Yeah, grandmother was a nymphomaniac before she died. She got into her car and sped off.
Curse that girl's Angel.
