Confused Love

“Bye!” I could feel the excitement in her voice. Just her talking to me got me really excited about my date and just Valentine’s Day all together. Nessa just had that personality, she would always make someone feel happy, or excited. She just makes an impression on people. So however she felt, you probably felt that way too.

I hung up my phone and went to my dresses. I had so many dresses that I needed to build a separate part for all of them. Most of the dresses I have, I’ve never worn before. Nessa and I go on a shopping trip, like once a week. She always finds these amazing dresses that she makes me try on and then buy. I love her but sometimes I just have no idea what to do with her.

 I pulled out my red dress and put it on. I grabbed my black high top converses and went to my bathroom. I plugged in my hair straighter and waited for it to heat up while I put on my converses. I looked at myself in the mirror. My hair was horribly messy. I had naturally curly hair, so it looked like I had a fake fro on the top of my head, but I straighten it every day. My hair went down to my cheeks once straightened. Most of my best friends didn’t even know I had curly hair because I just hate it so much. But then again it comes in really handy when I need my hair to be curly, like at weddings, prom, and dances. Luckily my hair was pretty easy to mold into what I wanted it to look like. So I guess I couldn’t complain about my hair too much.

Once I was done straightening my hair, I walked downstairs and grabbed my backpack. I looked out my window to see Nessa in the driveway, doing her make up in her car. I walked to the door, and opened it, walking out side. I got into the car and closed the door.

“Oh My Goodness, Izzie! You are sooo pretty!” she smiled looking at me. Nessa was wearing a tee shirt with hearts all over it and a pink ruffled skirt. She was also wearing her pink pumps. If you haven’t noticed, she only wore the proper holiday colors on the holiday. “You totally need to dress up more often!” She encouraged me.

“I love your Valentine’s Day outfit too, Nessa.” I smiled.

“Oh! I can’t wait until you see Eli! He looks so handsome today! At times like today I’m envious of your relationship.” She laughed, “Zane isn’t what I would say the most romantic person in the world unlike Eli. He can take the most hideous and grossest thing and turn it into the most romantic thing ever!”  Zane was her boyfriends. He was not the most romantic fellow in the world. For her birthday he took her to see the movie called guts and glory. I didn’t approve of him; she deserved better. But Nessa thinks she needs a boyfriend to be complete in life.

I laughed “So what are you and Zane doing this Valentine’s Day?”

She made a face “He is busy. Can you believe that?!?! The most important day of the year and he is busy!” she shook her head, “He is unfixable, Izza, simply unfixable.”

 I shook my head “You know I think that you should break up with him. You and he just don’t work together.”

She gave me the look, “Izzie we have been over this a thousand times! You know I can’t live without a boyfriend!”

I shook my head at her. For the rest of the ride I looked out the window as she gossiped to me about god knows what.

I couldn’t concentrate in any of my classes today. When we took notes, I doodled little hearts and flowers all over my notebooks. I kept day dreaming about my date for tonight. I wasn’t every good at waiting for surprises. Once the final bell rang, I picked up all of my stuff and walked to my locker. I grabbed my bag and walked outside, where Eli told me to meet him. I looked around hoping to find him but instead I saw someone who I never thought I would see before. I walked over to him, where he was looking the opposite way. “Hunter?” I asked shocked. What was he doing here? Hunter was my boyfriend two years ago. We were in love with each other; there wasn’t anything anyone could do that would break us up. We were perfect together. But then he was forced to move to New York because his dad got a new job. We never truly broke up but we lost contact. After weeks I knew I couldn’t keep torturing myself thinking he was going to comeback, so I started dating Eli. And now I loved him. Why does Hunter have to come back? It will ruin everything because I still love him too.
