Fool

The next morning I groaned of my position, I was crushed between Camille and Jaylin. Jaylin was laying half on top of me and Camille’s legs were tangled with mine. How do their boyfriends even get to sleep with them without being suffocated?

I pushed myself onto my knees and hands trying to climb over Cam as she was in my way. I lifted my leg over her and lowered it until my toes touched the carpet floor. I lifted the other part of my body over her until I was home free.

I went downstairs to make us some coffee and when I got back they were still in the same position in what I left them. “Yo, wake up bitches.” I said kicking the mattress but all I got was just a grumble in annoyance. I tried kicking the bed again but all I got was the same reaction. “Fine, you two want to be like that.” I said with a sigh placing the cups down on my nightstand and leaving the room going downstairs to the kitchen.

I rummaged through the fridge hoping we got some cream and or even cream cheese. I smiled in triumph when I did find some cream in the back of the fridge behind all the other stuff. “Ah-ha!” I said loudly like an evil genius who just had success with their invention. I shut the fridge turning around to leave when my eyes landed on my dad and Meredith looking at me suspiciously.

“Uh, hi.” I said with an awkward wave and then left the kitchen. I ran upstairs into my room and found Camille already awake drinking her coffee. “What is that for?” She asked noticing the cream in my hand. I just gave her an evil smile. “You surely are not going to do what I’m thinking.” She said with a smirk. I just shrugged and shook the bottle. “She is going to murder you.” She said placing her hand over her mouth masking her laugh.

I placed my knee onto the bed and sprayed Jaylin right in the face. The coldness probably woke her up as her eyes suddenly snapped open. “Hi!” I greeted.

“What are you up to?” She asked lifting her hand to her face, her eyes crinkled in confusion as her fingertips touched the cream in her face.

“Sasha!!” She yelled reaching out to me but missed as I pushed myself up from the bed. Camille was laughing her ass off. “I’m going to kill both of you!” She screamed pushing herself up from my bed. I dropped the cream and ran out my room down the stairs with Camille on my heels still laughing as Jaylin ran after us.

We slipped out of the front door. Jaylin tackled Camille to the ground and sprayed her in the face. Whoa, she even got time to grab the cream? She then stood up from Camille and ran after me. “Come on that was some serious humor.” I said by stepping her. But my foot slipped and I went down landing on my side with Jaylin deciding to tackle me.

She sprayed almost half of the bottle of cream out on me. “Whoa, that’s my boobs.” I said with a shriek and a laugh as she rubbed the cream all over me. We heard someone clearing their voice, Jaylin and I looked up and found my dad standing with his hands on his hips looking at us with raised eyebrows. “Shouldn’t you be getting ready for school?” My father asked me, the end of his lips twitching. “Yeah, probably.” I replied pushing myself to my feet. My father walked off with us following, singing Boulevard of Broken Dreams from Greenday. We got cleaned up and the girls decided to walk with me and Jonah to school. We dropped off Jonah and then walked over to the school I went to.

“Is this where you go to school now?” Cam asked quirking an eyebrow.

“Basically, yeah.” I answered staring at the school’s building.

“Nice, better than our old school. Definitely an upgrade.”

“You should see the cars people come to school with.” I scoffed. “See you guys after school?” I asked when I heard the school bell rang.

“Be good now.” Camille yelled after me as I started making my way towards the building. I can only imagine Jaylin rolling her eyes at her. I met Daphne at my locker and we walked side by side to class. “Morning ladies.” Jake greeted us as we entered the classroom. “Morning Jakey-boy.” I greeted walking passing his table and walking to ours. Daphne just gave him a shy wave and followed me.

“Is that how you are going to keep on greeting him?” Daphne just shrugged sitting down on her seat. I lifted my gaze to the door at the same time Brandon decided to enter the classroom. Our gazes locked for a moment while he was walking towards his seat. It feels stupid to admit this, but I miss his voice and our stupid conversations.

He was the first to break contact as he found his seat. I kept on stealing glances in his direction, wondering what the hell I’m doing. Why did I feel so attracted to him? There were so many other guys in this school that weren’t as bad as him but no I had to feel attracted to him, the one guy who used to date, my enemy.

After school, Daphne walked with me when my eyes landed on Jaylin and Camille waiting for me patiently. “Come on.” I told Daphne motioning for her to follow me. “Sup guys.” I greeted. “Who’s this?” Cam asked looking at Daphne.

“This is Daphne, she is my friend.” I told them. “And this is Jaylin and Camille, my other two friends that I kind of grew up with.” Daphne nodded looking at them. “We are going to skate park, you want to tag along?” Jaylin asked her. “Yeah, sure. I got nothing interesting to do at home. Anything to get away from my evil sister.” Cam quirked an eyebrow at her. “Long story.” I told Cam motioning for her to walk.

“We have a long way to walk, so I’ve got nothing but time.”

“Actually, it is not that far.” I told her pointing in the direction of the park.

Jaylin and Camille showed off with their impressive moves at the park while I tried to teach Daphne just to balance on the board. She then gave up and told me to go enjoy myself with my other two friends who already drawn a crowd. Jaylin looked at me suspiciously when I climbed onto the ramp, I placed my board on the edge and leaned forward. I did a few tricks that I have taught myself over the years. When I was done, I found Cam’s jaw on the ground while Jaylin just stared at me as if he was proud.

We hang out at the park for a little while longer, buying food and just trying tricks. I was doing a nose grid on the railing while Jaylin and Camille helped Daphne. I lost my balance when my eyes caught Brandon walking around with his friends. Because I was not focused, my board and I went forward making me land onto my chest with my board lying next to me.

“Well, that was impressive.” Camille scoffed making Jaylin chuckle.

“Yeah, I am fine. Don’t worry.” I wheezed rolling onto my back while holding onto my aching chest.

“I had enough of those to know what it feels like.” Cam said climbing over the railing, kneeling down next to me. “My ass has made more contact with the ground than my chest.” I told her wincing as she pulled me up. I wiped off the excessive dry grass, secretly looking over my shoulder making sure Brandon didn’t just saw my flaw. I gulp softly when I caught him looking in this direction, he saw that alright.

The guy I am trying to act tough for just saw me make a fool of myself.
