A'nori Stone
August 3rd
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We've been in Las Vegas for a day and everyone's already on their first hangover. Right now we are at the carnival and they are backing out saying they are going to puke. But they are the ones who wanted to get on the bumper cars.
And we might have gotten high before this...
Now were on the Ferris Wheel and I'm riding with Justice. Mainly because I thought he was the less nauseous one of us all.
"Oh shit, I'm gonna throw up." He groans
"Justice I swear to god, if you do this while we're 40 feet in the fucking air."
"I'm trying" he whines
Then his ears turn bright red "Oh shit, here, here, here. I'll just buy another one..." I hand him my slushee cup to puke in
We get down and I practically beg them to get on the carousel. It was a double decker... I didn't even know there was one of those.
"I want the brown one!" Noah yells
"I want the white!" Troy yells
"As long as we go to the top" Justice yells from behind us
We all have on mom jeans and baby tees. Troys always preferred coordinating over matching.
"Why do feel like this is going faster than usual." I yell as soon as we start spinning
"You just have to get used to the Tempo." A voice calls out
"Uh Thanks" I yell back
We were just spinning and laughing. I decide to pull out my phone. "Pose" I yell and everyone makes a funny face and then I get harassed by everyone to send it to their phone
I want this too last forever
We get off the ride and the same voice calls out "I love your smile."
I turn around and the boy is standing at a good 6 feet, his blond hair was all over his head. His outfit was bright... literally neon colors. Along with his grey eyes, he was different.
It was refreshing,not Jonah though
"Thanks" I smile again, starting to catch up with my friends
"You have a boyfriend?"
"Wow you're quick... and yeah I do actually" I smirk
"Really"
"Mhm" I hum rocking on my heels slightly
"Where is he?" He perks up like he 'caught' me
Please what the hell does a mans presence matter if I already said no.
"He's right there." I say waving Justice over
"How long have we been together?" I ask Justice
"3 years" Justice tells him
I've always loved odd numbers
"Hm, I guess I'll see you when this is over." He gestures between me and Justice
"I don't know I feel like this is kind of forever considering, I'm pregnant." I blurt
This is so fun, just lying to lie
"Wishing you guys the best." He nods walking away
"Assholes must be your thing" Justice jokes
"Not really but I want funnel cake too" I announce looking at Noah and Troy
"Are we gonna talk about our 3 year relationship or you shaking up my baby" he asks with amusement in his voice
"Absolutely not" I laugh
We walk over to Noah and Justice by the food truck.
"Is it soft?" I ask them looking at the funnel cake
"Yeah"
"Cake headass" Noah taunts and I ignore her
"Shut up" Troy defends me laughing
"Justice you want one?"
"No" I just walk away and lean up on the food truck
"Hey" The girl says, she couldn't be older than 15
"Hey, my friends are lame...can I get a funnel cake." I fake pout
"Yeah sure, $5.00"
"I love your hair" I tell her, handing her the total
Its shaved and with neon colored smiley faces. It goes perfectly with her small head.
"Thanks lovely, your smile is alluring"
"I'm gonna blush right now" I gush and we both just laugh
The laughter dies down and I ask her a question " left or right?"
"Right" I was hoping she didn't chose right...
"Thanks, do I have a number?"
"Yeah 50" and I just nod my head and I call his phone
"Hey I'm calling because um I... I like you too but you know I would never admit this sober and don't mention this ever in the daytime because I'll probably run away or something." I ramble
Jesus why did I smoke with Troy, it's making me run my mouth
"A'nori you know this isn't voicemail right?"
"You could've just let me keep talking." I face palm lightly
"Well what do you mean?" He'll always pry
"I don't know, I just keep finding myself getting lost with you"
"Good" I can see his smirk thousands of miles away
"I don't know if that's necessarily good but, bye Jonah."
"Bye love, have fun" Then he just hangs up
"50!!!"
I completely forgot about my funnel cake and this is what I mean by getting lost in him... it's pathetic
"Thanks girly, bye" I tell her grabbing my funnel cake and she waves
"Bye Nori" and I stop in my tracks, once again forgetting I'm public information
"Wave swingers after this?" Noah asks
"As long as you don't puke on me"
We run in the line after eating, like the kids we are and they count us off. We all pick a seat and I'm sitting next to Troy.
"Troy the ride hasn't even started and like your sweating." I announce
"I'm just here for the thrill." Noah says behind us
Justice starts "Adrenaline junkie would be the proper-" and the ride takes off "TERMMMM"
"AHHHHHHHH" Troy is just yelling mindlessly
"TROY WHY ARE YOU YELLING" I ask her
"BECAUSE IM SCARED, WHY ELSE WOULD I BE FUCKING YELLING" she yells back
"DRAMATIC WOULD BE THE CORRECT TERM" Justice chimes in
"AS IF." Noah yells
"I HATE YOU NOAHHHH" Troy continues to scream
This goes one for another minute probably and we get off. Noah's hair is all over her head and Justice stumbles out the gate. Troy is shaken up like she's been kidnapped.
"Are you okay?" I ask trying to hold in my laugh
"Your a bitch, so un-genuine" she laughs and at this point I can't hold mines in
"I love you too Troy" I tell her through laughs
~~~~~~~
Time passes and we are sitting at a wooden table in the park. You know the ones that look like school lunch tables, I just can't think of the name right now. Now we are all sitting around her while she blows out her candles. We got Troy a cookie cake because she doesn't like regular cake. She didn't let us drag on the happy birthday song either she said it makes her cringe.
"I'm really 23.....what the fuck."
"The fact the we're gonna get older is depressing." Noah shares while rolling her big brown eyes
"Don't start" He stops them
"Alright we're done"
"Okay, but did y'all ever think y'all would end up here."
"No"
"Nope"
"Hell no"
Guess who said what.... I'm sure it's self explanatory.
"Honestly never would've ever thought modeling... I thought I would've been a nurse or something"
"Yeah I know I seen it on your Instagram" I just look at Noah confused
"Girl you don't remember posting that vision board from the 10th grade."
"Neonatal nurse?"
"Oh shit, yeah I forgot I posted that" I pull out my phone and then see that I have a new follower and he commented on one of my old pictures from like July
@ A'NORI.ST
@ J.Taylor and 110,000 others liked this post....
A'NORI.ST: <333
@J.Taylor: I was here J.T.....
@A'NORI.ST: I was here too A.S.....
So I reply even though he just made my head spin. Ironic enough because that is his hand in the picture. I'm also satisfied to say I got the "All The Bright Places" reference.
"Oh shit"
I shoot my head back up "What?"
"He has you smiling at your phone now." Troy continues
"Yeah I guess." I half smile
"What the hell did I miss?" She stands up
"A lot." Justice is a snitch
"Tell me!" She exclaims
Noah and Justice take turns telling her what I told them a while ago and I finish up telling everybody what's been happening since then. They all look at me in shock but I just continue to eat my cookie and wait for someone's out burst.
"So what I'm hearing is that.... he's innnn love with you." Noah implies
"Girl what?" I turn my head towards her
"Troy isn't that what you heard?"
"Yep"
"That's what I heard partly because he's on his way.... and he's falling fast as hell" At least he tries to reason
"Impossible a man whore like that is not gonna settle down for little ole me. So y'all" I gesture between them getting up "Can go to hell"
"You can't hide from the truth Nori!"
"Just fall in love sweetheart and adopt a small puppy!"
I literally just asked him that... what if I'm falling too?
