It was Saturday, I tried not to sleep in because its Jacobs BBQ and I have a tendency to sleep in until lunch time.
I jumped the warm shower and washed my hair
I sat in the shower for exactly 28 minutes until I finally gathered the energy to jump out.
I walked in my room with a towel wrapped around my body and one wrapped around my hair and threw on a fitted tartan dress with collars , the dress ended mid thigh which highlighted my tanned legs
I loosed the towel on my hair and let my loose, damp curls fall down. I put some hair creme in it and left if down.
I didn't wear make up because who am I trying to impress?
I put on low, white converses and grabbed a white satchel and made my way down stairs. I have a big collection of trainers because thats all I wear, whats the point of wearing shoes that squeeze the shiteness out of your feet?
I sat in my living room silently waiting for Jacob
"Hazel why aren't you in a T-shirt watching Netflix on your iPad?" My mother asked concerned "Are you ill?" She asked sarcastically
"Why are not at a strangers house having sex? Are you sick" I replied
"I was just finishing him off for you" she commented "Because you do a bad job" my mother sniggered
Yes, my mother says them kind of things.
"A jokes not funny when you have to explain it. One of these days mum" I warned
"Finish of your sentence?" She asked
"What?"
"One of these days what?" She curiously asked
"Its a saying you simpleton" I replied, annoyed
"Where are you going, honey?" She asked
"You never call me honey." I bluntly replied
"Where are you going Hazel?" She corrected
"Finland" I smiled
"Okay, make sure you call me if theres any 'finish' guys you need me to 'finish' off for you" she joked
I tried not to laugh but I'm a sucker for lame jokes
I heard the familiar beep of Jacobs car and walked out the house
When he saw me walking out he immediately jumped out the car and stood waiting for me to get to him
His eyes were shining through his wide frame glasses
"Hazelnut, you look so beautiful" he said spinning me around
He was wearing a colourful graphic collared shirt with shorts on and snazzy trainers
"J-doggy dog" I said before giving him a hug
I jumped in his car and he put on a hip hop radio station
The rap blasted out of his car speakers
His head bopped to the beat
"I never took you for the rap kind" I said looking impressed
"I just found this radio station and couldn't be bothered to change it" he said waving it off
He began rapping along to a snoop dog track that was currently playing
"Sipping on gin and juice" he jammed
"Snoop dog, j-dog hmm coincidental" I thought out loud, Im always looking for coincidences
"Im thinking of changing my name to J-Lion, though no one will call me it,"
"Will you? He asked hopingly
"No, i'll call you 'J-Cub', ha get it?" I smiled like a geek
"Ahhhhhh" we both sang, simultaneously pointing at each other
"I see what you did there 'Hazelbutt'" he attempted
I looked at him disappointed
We stared at each other in silence
"Why jacob?" I asked "we were having a moment"
"Sorry, its just that you made a joke, so I wanted to." he said looking down
We both stared at each other, seriously.
Jacobs straight face was invaded by a smile, we both burst out laughing
We arrived at his house which had a load of posh cars around it
Posh cars= Adults.
I dislike Adults.
Although dislike children too.
But I dislike teenagers most; shit I am a teenager.
Mind Blown.
We entered his bright house and rushed straight into the flowery garden where a bolding man was standing tending to the BBQ.
The garden was full of middle aged people mingling and eating
We approached the BBQ
"You must be one of JJ's mates" said the bolding man scruffing Jacobs hair
He had quite a round stomach and wore a plain white top along with some army shorts and tight flip flops showing his unflattering feet.
"Hazel this is my father, who still seems to call me JJ even though I continuously insist he keep that nickname private" Rambled Jacob
"Nice to meet you Mr. Richardson" I said
A blonde women wearing a floral dress and sunglasses walked towards Jacob and gave him a smothering kiss on his forehead
"And this is my mother" he said, with lipstick lingering on his forehead
"Hey Mrs. Richardson" I greeted
"Aw your so beautiful look at your hair, call me Sue darling" She Replied
She walked away to greet another guest who just arrived
Mr. Richardson gave me a warm smile
"What would you like Hazel"
I looked over at the Packed BBQ full of burgers, Hot Dogs, Steaks, Chicken, Kebabs and quorn sausages
Jacob jumped right in and grabbed a wild selection of meats
"Could I have a Burger please?" I asked shyly
They both screwed up their faces looking disgusted in me
"Is that all?" Replied Mr. Richardson
Mr. Richardson grabbed a plate and put on a huge pile of different meats
"Hazel, you need a bit of fattening up," he said smiling widely
"This is just a starter" said Jacob looking down at his humungous plate
How does Jacob eat that much but remain so thin?
We both sat on the bare grass and dug in
"Your dads cool" I said, biting into a burger
He raised his eyebrows judgingly
"Is that what you consider cool Hazel?" He said laughing
Jordan walked in the garden with his football kit on looking like he's drenched in sweat, his curly hair was dragged from his face with a head band.
He approached Jacobs mum and gave her a massive kiss on the cheek
Jacob was watching him too
"My parents love him, they think he's there son. If they knew what he was really like" Laughed Jacob
Jordan walked straight to the BBQ helping his self piling his plate with meat
We walk towards us looking satisfied
He grabbed a picnic chair and placed it next to where we were sitting
Does he think he's too good to sit on the grass?
"Sue gets hotter everyday" Said Jordan biting into a massive chicken leg
"Are you so desperate you have to hit on a 40 year old married women?" Asked Jacob
I began to giggle at Jacobs comment
"Girls our age are to easy" he said "I love a challenge"
He glanced around and finally acknowledged me
"Hey curls" he said smiling
"Its Hazel" I replied, cutting my eye
"You think I care what your name is?" He asked confused
I was about to verbally roast him until I glanced forward and saw Bella hopping towards us with a massive smile on her face.
Her long wavy, ginger hair was left down and she was wearing a flowery top and white shorts.
She was holding someones hand dragging them behind her
Trailing behind her was Matt Payne, wearing a collared blue Lacoste with denim shorts. His wavy brown hair floated gracefully on the top of his had looking in perfect shape. He walked towards us his bright grey eyes glazing on the ground, he looked up with the sun reflecting on his eyes, he slicked his neat hair back.
Why the fuck is he here?
"Hey," Sang Bella
"This is my boyfriend Mathew "
Ha, he probably hates the fact that she calls him Mathew.
"Hazel, don't you know him?" Asked Bella
"Hi Hazel." Said Matt smiling widely, clearly trying to wind me up
I looked up slowly not returning the smile
"Jacob, could I use your toilet please?" I asked
"Yeah, go upstairs and theres a door labelled 'Bathroom'" he said
"Cheers" I said, faintly smiling
I rushed to the toilet to gather my peace of mind, I'm going to gave to avoid him because he's going to keep winding me up.
I gave myself a mental pep talk
Come on Hazel your too cool to be annoyed!
Im shit at pep talk.
I walked out ready to get back to the garden until I was stopped in my tracks, Matt was stood there leaning against the wall with a massive smirk on his face.
"You hang around with them, yeah?" He said, raising his eyebrows
"Na, I'm just sitting with strangers." I replied, sarcastically
"Why'd you rush off, Hazey?"
"Because I don't like you, 'Mathew'" I laughed
"Don't take the piss Hazel" he said, his smile suddenly disappearing
"Go toilet then" I said, screwing up my face
"I didn't want to go toilet" He smiled "I want ditch them, with you"
"Fuck off" I straight faced him
"Christian was right" he said nodding his head
"What?"
"You are a bitch" he laughed
I stormed down stairs to the garden infuriated
I sat down and stared at my empty plate
"Oh, I did you a favour and ate your food. You need to loose some weight" said Jordan, looking satisfied
I wasn't bothered to give him a witty comeback, I just wanted to go home
"Jacob, I have to leave. I'll walk home" I said
I leaned over to give him a kiss in the cheek and walked off before he'd ask me whats wrong .
"Hazel?!?" Called Jacob while I was walking out the door
I paced off.
I was walking home feeling very angry, I just wanted a calm day but Matt 'Payne in the ass' had to show his poisonous face.
I Collapsed on my bed and rested for the rest of the day, maybe a happy life with friendships wasn't meant for me. Id rather stay at home and read books, whats to loose?
