Chapter 9. Grocery Shopping and Heartattacks.


Sunday's were always amazing to me. Although Monday is right around the corner, it's the perfect day to just relax and watch all your favorite shows and movies while snacking on ice cream and chips. Another great thing about Sunday's is that my parents are actually home for the week. It's the one day of the week I get to see them all day and actually talk to them.

All of that was put to a halt though when they weren't home today, but instead a little note was left in their place.

'Went away for a business trip for about 2-3 weeks. Here's some money to buy food, and other needed items.

Signed,

Mom and Dad.'

That's it? No, 'No boys, parties, or drugs!'?Just a little bit of money for food. Sighing softly, I crumble the note up and throw it in the trash and stick the money in my pocket. Might as well go to the store now and get some pizza's.

Grabbing my phone, I send a quick text to Gina asking if she wants to go and then head up to my room to get changed. Throwing on some black leggings, a sweater, and my favorite converse, I sit down on my bed to wait for her reply.

Yesterday with Zander was great. After the whole mini fight/laughing fit we had, we went to several other stores that we liked, bought a ton of stuff we probably didn't need, then headed back to his car. I really wanted to stay awake, I really did but as soon as my butt hit the soft passenger seat I was out like a light. I don't even remember how I got into my bedroom, it was that great.

My phone pings loudly letting me know Gina texted back.

"Sure! Be there in 5 :D"  -G

"See you then!" -S

Five minutes pass by, then ten. Of course she's late, wouldn't be Gina if she wasn't late. The honking of a horn blasts outside, scaring me half to death. My phone beeps as a text comes through from Gina.

"I'm here!" -G

Yeah you don't think I wouldn't have known from you blowing the horn?? Grumbling to myself I slide off my bed and head downstairs and out the door. Gina starts waving frantically when she sees me and I can see her slightly bouncing in her seat. As soon as I open the car door I'm bombarded with the never ending questions.

"How was it? What was it like? Did you have fun? What time did you come home? What did you buy? What was he like? Did he kiss you? Did he try to kiss you?! Oh my gosh, if he pulled a fast one on you I'll beat him up. No matter how much I ship you two already! Omigosh, I'm so excited!! Why aren't you talking? Are you sick? What took you so long? Why do we have to go to the store? Wha-"

"OH MY FUDGE WOMAN LET ME SPEAK!" I cut her off with a shout, her eyes go wide with shock and she whispers a small "Sorry." Before starting her car and heading towards the store.

Shaking my head I place a hand over my forehead, a headache forming slowly. "It was fine. We had a lot if fun and I honestly don't even remember what all I bought or what time we got home. No he didn't try to kiss me! He didn't try anything! It was just a friendly get together, not a date." The last words came out a little quieter than expected making me wonder, had I been wanting it to be a date?

Gina smiles at me sheepishly, "Sorry for all the questions, I just got a little excited." I simply shrugged and turned back towards the window, watching the buildings and trees pass by until finally we were at the supermarket. Hoping out of the car we start towards the store.

"I honestly don't even know what I need I just know I have 100 dollars to spend." I grab a cart and start pushing it towards the fruit section.

Gina starts coughing wildly, stopping me in my tracks to look back at her as confusion takes over me. "Gina what the heck? What're you doing?" Okay wow, don't even be concerned if she's choking. . .

"O.m.g. He looks so much better in person." She points toward the lettuce section where a tall boy had his back turned towards us.

I furrow my brows confused about to ask who he is but then the words died on my tongue when he turned around and gave me his signature mega watt smile. I smile softly back at Zander and before I know it, Gina is pushing the cart towards him with me in tow.

"Hi Zander!" Gina cheerfully greets him as she approaches, keeping her hand firming wrapped around my arm. He turns and nods in acknowledgment then he sees me standing beside her. His blank look turns into a smirk and he leans against the lettuce racks.

"Hi there, you must be . . . ?" He stops short realizing he doesn't know my best friends name making me smile in victory. Ha! Nice try being smooth there, buddy! Laughing internally I watch happily as his smirk falters and he stops leaning so smugly against the lettuce.

"Gina? Sarah's best friend? Dude we literally just met yesterday . . . ?" My mind is screaming two things as Gina gives Zander her famous "I honestly cannot believe you right now." Look. One being, Omg don't be mean he might start hating us!! The second being, well, just a very loud part of me rolling around laughing evilly as smoke and fire rise up behind me.

I'm not Satan, I swear! Calming down I gently grab Gina's arm and start tugging her away. Sending a quick wave over my shoulder to Zander. I should have talked to him, I know I know but I just, feel kinda awkward about it.

"Geez, S. What's the rush? I was just trying to talk to him." I roll my eyes and swing around to meet her innocent smile.

"No you were just trying to get me to talk to him." My cheeks heat up a tinge and I cover them with my hands groaning in annoyance. Stupid cheeks and stupid boys and stupid stupid stupid.

She sings out, "Oh stop it, you know you wanted to!" Then races the cart to the ice cream aisle. And when I say race I mean, literally run so fast she almost hit a small child.

I had to run to catch up to her. She's currently digging through the ice cream cones, looking for who knows what.

"Gina! C'mon they don't have it you're drawing attention to us!" I pull on her arm to try and get her out of the freezer, sending an apologetic look towards the elderly woman staring at us like we're two lunatics.

She holds onto the side of the freezer and continues digging with her other hand. "Nooo, Sarah there's got to be some in here I just know it!!" She moves her leg up to rest on the ledge, basically shoving herself into the freezer. My cheeks heat up in utter embarrassment as I look at my idiot best friend pretty much climb into the freezer then suddenly emerge with one box of chocolate eclair bars.

She turns around and gives me a smug look, "Got 'em." She skips over to the cart and places them delicately in it. I shake my head and push the cart towards the pizza section, way too eager to get out of here and just go home.

Sam and Dean are waiting for me to come back so we can go on more supernatural adventures!!

After another twenty minutes or so I have all the stuff I need and now Gina and I are headed back to her car. Gladly, I didn't see Zander again after the whole lettuce rack thing.

"Sarah, you coming or are you just going to stand there daydreaming?" Gina stands by her car door waiting for me to get in. We already unloaded all of the groceries and put the cart back, now it's time to head home.

"Yeah sorry." I mumbled a quick apology then got in. She started up the engine and then we were on our way.

She gets this evil smile on her face and I knew whatever she was about to say I wouldn't like, "What were you daydreaming about? Or should I ask, Who?" I cast a mocking glare at her before sighing in defeat.

"Okay maybe I was thinking about him but it's not like that." I shake my head and my cheeks start flushing pink. No no no, not okay!! You're supposed to be on my side, stupid cheeks!

"Oh my gosh, I knew it!! You totally like him don't you!?" She starts squealing and dancing around her seat making me concerned for our safety.

"No no no! I don't like him like that. I mean, sure he's cute and all but I don't have feelings for him. We're just friends, I think . . ." I trail off at the last part and my mind starts going wild. Are we really even friends? I mean like, neither one of us have said that we are. Nor have we really hung out enough yet to quite call each other that. So, are we friends or . . . ?

Gina must have noticed my change in mood because she immediately stopped dancing and looked towards me with a frown, "You think? Well why wouldn't you guys be? You've been pretty friendly in my opinion, I don't see why you wouldn't be considered friends." Her words put me at ease and I nod in agreement.

I give her a small smile and jump out of the car when we pull into the drive way. I feel my phone buzz in my pocket but don't bother with it until about ten minutes later when all the food was unpacked and put away and Gina had left.

The message I got had me wishing Gina hadn't just left, but instead stayed long enough to catch me when I sank down on the kitchen floor as I stared at my phone in horror.

It was a message from Zander. Simply stating that he wanted to talk to me at school Monday.

And with it was a picture of my kitten printed bra and underwear set.
