Small talks
"Wow that was a g-great s-story," Riley studdered making me want to laugh.
"Good thing you had rivers," I commented nudging her shoulder. She didn't attempt to hide the fact that she was blushing.
"Okay so maybe I have a crush on him," She said below a whisper. It was barely 8pm and everyone started dancing. Good thing we brought extra comfy yet nice outfits for the night.
"Well I don't want things to get awk-"
"Are you kidding me. They won't-I Mean look at how me and Brandon are," I stated hoping she'd take a chance with Rivers. She still shook her head and I groaned.
"Fine then and speaking of Rivers he's calling you to go dance," I cooed as she retreated back with him. I smiled and went to where the bin was at to grab a drink. I noticed Matt walking my way and smiled at him.
"So Zoella i wanted to ask you if you where going to game tomorrow?" he asked eyeing my body. I swear he's been checking me out this whole day. It bugs me but thank goodness I didn't wear anything revealing. I seriously wanted to punch him when I noticed him earlier.
"Yeah im going.. don't I always go," I said in a duh tone.
"Oh well yea but I wanted to know if maybe after the game you wanted to cruise around town and maybe go back to my place," I knew what he ment by that when he bit his lip. Seriously what the actual fuck?!? Does he think im easy like Myra. Well news flash bitch I'm nothing like her.
"Fuck off," I snapped pushing past him. Before I can walk away he held my arm. I looked back at him and gave him one of my death glares.
"Dude get off her. I warned you to stop checking her out," Brandon spat out. I tried again to get out of Matt's grip but he wouldn't let go and pulled my arm so I was by his side. I fucken hate how defenseless I look. So I did something that no one thought I was capable of doing. I punched Matt straight in the face. Might I add that I've been working out so yea I got muscles. Okay maybe not gorilla status but enough strength to knock out a half drunken Matty.
Matt just fell on the floor and at the moment I couldn't feel my knuckles. Everyone was starring at us now and it was pretty weird. I heard a bunch of Oh's and he got knocked the fuck out. I looked at brandon and he looked impressed. Psh and he thought I couldn't handle these situations. I shook my knuckles and walked away as if nothing happened sipping on my coke. Brandon walked near me and we walked by the waves and away from the party. He kept smiling and held my hand.
"Okay you can let it out," he announced. I didnt hesitate to show how much in pain I was. The feeling of my knuckles finally hit me and man did it hurt.
"Owowowowowowowow," I whined shaking my knuckle.
"I can't blame you since you knocked out Matt, " he chuckled. I basically single handedly took out a gorilla.
"See I told you I could handle my problems," I mumbled holding onto my knuckles that were burning.
"Here ice them for a bit," Brandon commented as he handed me a bag full of ice.
"What are you the school nurse. Psh I don't need ice," I stated trying to look tough.
"You punch a guy in the face and now you think your the hulk huh," he teased making me pout. Darn he knows me too well. Without hesitation I grabbed the ice pack and said a quick thank you.
"So what was Matt talking to you about," he said plainly but I noticed his fist clenching. He was nowhere near okay.
"He asked me if I wanted to cruise around and then go back to his place to.... you know," I bit out disgusted. Matthew is such a perve but I never paid him any attention since I would only root on Brandon.
"What a basturd. I swear he should know better than to try and get at you. Your not like Myra who would gladly open her legs to any male," He said making me laugh. He cracked a smile and it was nice knowing I can always make him smile. Even though I really didn't do anything to try. I didn't even notice Brandon leaning closer. Our noses were literally touching and I felt my heart doing back flips. Weird. I felt my palms becoming sweaty.
"Brad... I don't think I'm ready," I blurted out. Gosh im such a loser.
He smiled at me but I can tell he was a bit dissapointed.
"I won't rush anything. I promise and don't worry I wasn't going to kiss you," he replied with a smile.
"I just get so memorize by your eyes. They remind me of a really nice shade of blue that stands out more than others and have that something special in them that distinguishes them and even the words im saying don't do them justice," he sincerely admitted making me smile. Damn this boy for being so sweet.
One thing for sure is I barely noticed how crazy my heart beats when im near him. I'm scared to grow any feelings but he makes me feel okay as if I have nothing to fear.
Just then I heard a familiar song playing.
"Ohhh let's go dance Brandon," I squealed remembering the name of the song.
"What about your knuckles," he asked concerned. Oh yea. I completely forgot about them. Eh they feel alright.
"All better-Now can we go dance," I pleaded feeling happy.
He held my hand making my heart do back flips. Why haven't I noticed before my feelings for Brandon. Was I really that scared? Am I still a bit hesitated?
I completely forgot about my thoughts when Brandon started dancing in front of me. He was always good at dancing but not as good as me.
Let's make this fleeting moment last forever
So, tell me what you're waiting for?
I'm gonna keep it frozen here forever,
There's no regretting anymore.
It's worth the wait, even so far away.
I'm making the night mine until the day I die
Our hips swayed in the same direction but I was nowhere near grinding on brandon. He pulled out a silly face and it made me laugh. He's such a goofball.
No lights to brake when you're hanging by fate
You know what it feels like when you're dancing blind
All alone, just the beat inside my soul
Take me home, where my dreams are made of gold
In the zone where the beat is un-controlled.
I know what it feels like
Come on make me feel alive
Feel alive, feel alive
Feel alive, feel alive
Feel alive, feel alive alive alive alive
Alive!
I began mouthing the words and he pretended to mouth the same words but he was... actually mouth singing to me?
Meet me under shining lights,
I've been waiting right here all my life
Feelings you can't deny that you're living, open up your eyes
And I just wanna sink into your crazy laughter
Come on make me feel until the pain don't matter
Every second here makes my heart beat faster
Finally think I found what I'm chasing after.
All alone, just the beat inside my soul
Take me home, where my dreams are made of gold
In the zone where the beat is un-controlled.
I know what it feels like
Come on make me feel alive
Feel alive, feel alive
Feel alive, feel alive
Feel alive, feel alive alive alive alive
Alive!
I smiled at the gesture and continued to dance.
All alone, just the beat inside my soul
Take me home, where my dreams are made of gold
In the zone where the beat is un-controlled.
I know what it feels like
Come on make me feel alive
Feel alive, feel alive
Feel alive, feel alive
Feel alive, feel alive alive alive alive
Alive!
I know what it feels like
Come on make me feel alive
Feel alive, feel alive
Feel alive, feel alive
Feel alive, feel alive alive alive alive
Alive! Feel alive!
Even after the music ended I found myself starring into his eyes.
"Zoella!" Riley chirped up making me break eye contact with Brandon.
"Oh was I interrupting your little moment," she cooed making brandon groan.
"It's okay so what's up?" I asked feeling curious to why she looked so nervous.
"Well okay um... I-heard Myra and Kyle talking about you when I went to the bathroom. No shocker they were hooking up in one of the stalls anyways Myra is going to be extra sluttier-if thats even possible near Brandon. Also I f-found o-out that K-kyle is involved in a really dangerous gang that's planning a drug shipping t-tomorrow and what's awful is I sneezed and I ran out but I t-think he saw me. Now I'm scared that something will happen to me because I heard that," she nervously stated. Wow I honestly don't know what to say.
"Whatever happens please don't hesitate to call us," Brandon stated in a serious tone. I nodded my head and hugged her.
"I doubt he noticed you since you ran out fast right?" I asked hoping I was right.
"Yeah but what if-"
"Don't say that. you can't keep living eith what ifs and I doubt that scumbag saw you when Myra was probably straddling him. It's creepy how I know that but it's their everyday position," I said looking grossed out.
"Im pretty sure brandon wants you to straddle him," Riley joked making me cough.
"Seriously Riley. You never fail to surprise me," Brandon laughed as I tried to recover.
"Oh also River's invited me to go see him at tomorrow's game and dinner after," She announced proudly.
"Damn you barely started dancing with him and now your a whole new person. What a whore," I joked making Riley and Brandon crack up.
"You guys ready to go," Brandon pipped up. I wanted to say no but I couldn't hold back my yawns.
"Say no more were off," he chuckled grabbing my hand. Riley pretended to gag.
"Hey Brandon is it cool if I take riley home," River chimed in. I saw Riley blushing a bit but she tried to act as if she didn't care.
"Don't worry River's she's probably doing back flips inside," I joked getting a punch from riley. I winced trying to pretend it hurt.
"Man up Zoella you practically took out a gorilla so that act isn't working on me."
Darn it.
"You can't blame me for trying," I stated nonchalantly. She just rolled her eyes at me and cracked a smile.
"Zoella let's get going because I bet your mom misses you," he cooed. I wasn't mad at him for saying that despite how much I hate my mother. I couldn't help but feel my heart drop at the mention of mom. That women is not my mother, she is a demon that haunts my life. I'm not the one to be rude but it's true. Not once in my life have I felt at peace with my mother. I feel as if she hates me since the day I was born but it's not my fault my father doesn't love her. It's her own fault since she's a bitter, livid, and just plain out has a horrible personality. I'm glad I look nowhere near her because I wouldn't be able to stand my reflection. all this thinking has me wanting coffee.
"Zoella," Brandon said breaking me out of my train of thoughts. Crap, I must of been spacing out.
"Oh shut it would you coffee beans," I muttered wiping my eyes.
"Coffee beans?" Brandon questioned in amusement. Damn me and my craving for coffee.
"I can sense someone wants coffee, " Riley pipped up.
"We should head over to starbucks," Rivers suggested.
"Umm well I dont think I could umm..."
I want to go but what if Ms. Marks gets mad at me for-Oh speaking of her I think she texted me.
Marks :p
Honey I won't be home today and I don't want you staying by yourself so it's okay if you sleep over at a friends house
"Oh second thought I can go and guess what brandon sleep over at your house again," I bellowed as Brandon high fived me.
"So let's go," Rivers announced walking side by side with Riley.
We went in separate cars and throughout the whole ride me and brandon kept playing yellow car. It was hilarious because I wouldn't always be a hundred percent honest about seeing a yellow car. Brandon picked that up so he would lie about it too. In the end I turned up the radio and started jamming out to random songs.
We had arrived by the nearest starbucks that's close by to where brandon lives and I took the opportunity to use the gift card Riley had given me.
"Come prepared I see,"he commented.
"Hey you never know," I defended. He put his hands up in surrender.
After we waited in line for a bit we ordered our drinks and found a booth to sit down in. Brandon sat near me and Riley sat on the other side with Rivers poking each other.
"Brandon yellow car," I exclaimed punching him. He groaned in frustration since I kept finding more cars then him.
"Um.. Zoella isn't that Myra's car," Riley questioned. Right after she had said that Myra came out and so did Kyle. No shocker there. They both walked in and she was clinging onto him. He looked annoyed and bored until he spotted me. I looked away annoyed since he winked at me. Brandon groaned when Myra squealed. Hopefully she found some diamond earrings and that's why she's squealing.
"Brandon," she shrieked causing me and Riley to wince. We both knew she would be heading over here.
"Hey Brandon and Rivers," she greeted completely ignoring me and Riley.
Riley ♥
Can she sound anymore fake. Seriously her voice gives me the chills because it's basically screaming "Bitch Alert! Bitch Alert"
I couldn't help but laugh. Riley smiled and set her phone down. To my surprise she was talking to Rivers so I took the opportunity to show the text to Brandon. He bit his lip to try to keep his laughter inside. Just then I recieved a message from messenger. Apparently Riley made a group chat.
**Messenger***
R: Hey guys!!!
Z: Wazz up ♥
B: Sup!
R: Do you see how low her shirt is. Is this bitch tryna suck him into her breast -.-
Z: Woah. Brandon do you see a little green monster coming out of Riley >;D
B: I believe I do ;p
R: Oh Gosh! I have a booger! :O
Z: Lmfao xD
B: It was just a metaphor saying it's apparent your jealous.
R: Am not!
Z: Are too!
B: I want a cookie.
R: I'll give you a cookie if you side with me Brandon
Z: No don't do it!
B: Would you give me a cookie Zoe? :)
Z: Heck no!
B: Then I agree with Riley >:D
R: Oooo! I'm right! \(^-^)/
Z: Just because you bribed him :p
R: So!
I smiled and stuck my tounge out at her.
"Well do you want to go somewhere after you guys win your game," Myra commented looking at Brandon who was too busy checking him phone to even care at her attempts to get him jealous.
"No he doesn't because he's going out with me that night," Riley blurted out sending daggers to Myra. Brandon looked up and we both exchanges knowing glances.
"Oh but I bet he'd rather enjoy spending time with someone who can show him a good time," Myra snarled.
"I don't remember Prostitutes selling themselves inside starbucks I thought they would usually be around the corners," Riley remarked making Myra's face turn red with anger.
"Hey zoella," Klye said. I felt Brandon holding my hand making the damn butterflies appear. Damn this boy and the things he makes me feel.
"Kyle," I stated bluntly.
"Rivers," Rivers chimed in trying to ease the atmosphere. His attempted failed terribly since Riley and Myra were shooting daggers at eachother and Brandon and Kyle were in some stare off. Meanwhile I was trying to recover from this small gesture.
"Fuck off. Your so unbearable I wonder how guys can even stand you," Myra bellowed at Riley who was quick to reply.
"Ha! Same goes to you and the only reasons some guys are able to stand you are usually the ones who your spreading your legs for."
"At least she can please a man," Kyle bit back.
"Oh please your no prize and I shouldn't down grade myself for a worthless piece of shit like you," she snapped clenching her fist.
"You fucken bitch," He roared.
"Hey man fuck off and leave her alone," Rivers growled as he stood up.
"Why are defending that b-"
"How about you shut the fuck up," I snapped at Kyle coming back to my senses.
"Let's go Kyle," Myra muttered as her nostrils were flaring up.
"Listen to your slut and walk away," River commented. Kyle retreated since Myra was tugging on his arm as she grabbed her drink from him. They left making the atmosphere a better mood.
"Order number 69," The lady announced making the guys smile. Me and Riley just rolled our eyes at them.
"Boys," We sighed making them laugh.
"Girls," they mocked earning a good smack on the head from both me and Riley.
Rivers grabbed our drinks and Riley bought Brandon a cookie since it was at the price of two for a dollar. It was a fair deal so I got six and shared one with Rivers. I know, im so generous aren't I.
