Happiness Is Short Lived

Dedicated to Oceangale

"Wait!" i shout as i run up to Cayden who is already out of the class.
God is he fast!

"Why hello there Munchkin" he smiles as i walk beside him.

"Why hello there idiot" i chuckle.

"Did you just call me idiot? I saved you today!" he retorts.

Ohh yes bad manners amy. Bad manners.

"Sorry i hurt your feelings when i called you stupid. I really thought you already knew. And Thanks" i say.

"You can never be nice to me can you?" he asks putting his hand where his heart is, pretending to be hurt.

"Hey! I did say Thanks!" i say rolling my eyes.

"Its a good thing I have high self esteem. You could really hurt my feelings"

I again roll my eyes at that.

"How can you not like Cayden?" Kayla says while taking a big bite from her sandwich and immediately spits it out scrunching her face in disgust.
She knows how lamentable the food provided in the canteen are and yet she buys it.

What would she do with a brain if she had one?

" Because he is an asshole?" i shrug but she does not seem to hear me as she is busy staring at something behind me.

" Earth to Kayla"i say waving my hand in front of her face snapping her back from her reverie.

" He is so hot! "kayla moans while bitting her lips as she places her chin on her palm and begins daydreaming again .

Confused, i arch my neck to see about whom Kayla is buffing about.

I seriously feel sorry and sympathetic for her.

Out of everyone, she chose the gorgeous devil himself, Cayden.

"May god be with you" i offer a sympathetic look while patting her shoulder.

She simply rolls her eyes.

"So our movie night is on for tonight?" i ask her.

She seems to be profoundly thinking about something.
This is the symptom of bad news.

"Ohh sorry I can't make it tonight." she says offering me a sad look.

"Why not?" i ask her. I had planned this for months since we did not really meet each other during the holidays as she went to her grandparents.
I feel disappointed.

"I'mgoingtoaparty" she talks so fast that i don't register a word.

"What?" i ask, waiting her to repeat.
It better be a valid reason.

She takes a deep breath and mutters

"I'm.. Kinda.. Uhm.. Going to a party"

"What!!!" my jaws drop to the floor as i register whatever she just said.
She never ever goes to parties just like me. How the hell?

"Listen i don't know who you are but return me my best friend back!"

"You heard me right Amy" she rolls her eyes.

"Its our last year and I haven't been to any of those popular bar parties everyone flatters about. Its high time to live." she states.

She knows her parents will kill her as soon as they find out right?

"To live? You would probably end up getting raped at those parties!" i deadpan.

From every book i read, this is the case my friend unless your loverboy comes to your rescue.

"You can come too if you want" she says but i have a feeling that she doesn't really want me to come.
And I'd never go anyways.

"No. Its fine" i say while faking a smile. I don't want her to feel bad because of me. Its her life and she gets to live it in her way.

And going out is just
20% riding in ubers
20% waiting in the line to get in the bar.
20% waiting in line for drinks
20% waiting in line for bathroom
15%trying to find your friends
5% asking 'what do you do?'

I'll just assume it like that.

"So you're canceling our movie night because of a party?" i ask hurt.

"I'm sorry amy. I will catch up with you. I promise" she says solemnly.

"Pinky promise?" i ask holding out my pinky finger.

"Pinky promise" she smiles as she interlaces her pinky with mine.

"ohh and please do me favor. Don't tell my parents about it"

"Rest assured" i smile.

I plop down on the couch preparing for my lonely movie night.

Netflix: Are you still watching?

Me:No.

Netflix :Do you still want it in the background anyway to fill the deafening silence of your loneliness.

I am watching titanic for the one hundredth and fifty-eight time yet the ending still has me crying.

I swear i fall into depression by sad endings. It does not go off my mind for days and i keep on thinking how better it would be with a happy ending.... They would marry... Have kids... Oh my god why!

I need to eat now before i fall into depression.

I pull the popcorn packet from the cabinet and place them in the microwave.
I lean against the kitchen counter and listen to those popping sounds that are always satisfying.

I hear knocks on the door and sprint to open it hoping its dad.

"Dad!" i squeal as i yank open the door ready to throw myself on him but i froze when i see Cayden at my doorstep. His eyes travel from my head to toe and he holds back a laugh.
What's wrong with my SpongeBob shirt and banana printed pants?

"Its Daddy" he smirks.
Ew jerk.

I'm about to slam the door shut on his face but he easily catches it and holds it open.

"Why are you here?" i ask raising an eyebrow and placing my hands on my hips.

"I told you i would find you when i feel like working on the stupid project" he shrugs.

Oh snap! They project i totally forgot about it.

"Aren't you going to the party tonight?"
He must be one of the main person at this party and he looks like a party-animal.

"Are you?" he asks

"Nope" i reply popping the 'p'.

"why?" he asks raising an eyebrow.

Isn't that obvious that I'll make a complete fool of myself if I go.
I don't even own party outfits, all i own are hoodies and pajamas.

"Because I rather be watching Netflix than witnessing people sucking each others faces and getting raped." i state.

He chuckles at that.

"Why are you not going?" i ask.

"I mean there are going to be hot chicks there but I don't feel like going" he says scratching the back of his neck.

My jaws drops. The Badboy is not going to the famous party and will work on our project?
Thats Unbelievably shocking!

I don't know why boys go to bars to meet girls? Go yo target. The female ratio is 10 to 1 and they're already looking for things they don't need.
Oh i guess they don't find thirsty bimbos in slutty clothes there.

"So are you going to invite me in or something?" he smiles.

"Oh yes sorry, come in" i say stepping aside and letting him in.

He walks behind me as i guide him to my room.

"You can sit on the bed or on the floor, but the swing chair is mine." i state.

"I'll happily take the bed" he says and throws himself on it rumpling the bed sheet. I just made my bed this morning!

I am about to head to my desk when i smell... Burning toast.
Wait my toaster is broken.
My eyes widen in realization.

HOLY whipped cream!

The POPCORN!

I bolt down the stairs and sprint to the kitchen.

Uh oh.

The popcorn is on fire!!!
Ahhhhhhh

I briskly remove the popcorn currently in flames using a kitchen cloth and toss in on the kitchen counter.

I hear a chirping noise and then i am sprinkled with water... The fire sprinkler.

I hear hurried footsteps and spot Cayden rushing to me.

He first seems anxious but then his Shoulders shake in silent laughter as he sniggers befire bursting out laughing, tears streaming down his face and he clutches his stomach.

"You're wet!" he laughs.

Ha. Ha. Ha.

I grab a glass of water kept on the kitchen counter and splashed it on his face.

"Now you're wet too" i smirk.

He had stopped laughing and his eyes were wide in shock.

Mine widen too as i realise what i just did.

Water dripped from his hair to his now drenched shirt and he stood still in the puddle of water.

I don't know why I found myself laughing so hard, but all of the sudden, I couldn't stop. My breath came in quick gasps between my unstopable giggles. Tears gathered in the corners of my eyes, threatening to spill over.

I hear him mutter 'fuck' underneath his breath as he takes his shirt off.

I tried not to stare at his hot bare chest. Oh my god he looks like a model. Scratch that way more sexier.
Gosh his eight packs and V-line.
Swoon.

"You are so gone Amelia!" he warns and he dangerously steps closer to me.

I shriek as i dart in the opposite way, running outside the house as Cayden is chasing me.

I stop in my tracks as i no longer hear footsteps behind me and i look back to find no one there.

My lips curve into a victory smirk and i fist pump the air but happiness is short lived.
