Iv'e got some really bad news...
I have to go spend a weekend at Vincents house to get used to being there. Mum is really keen for me to go but i really don't want to.
Mums a nurse and she has to go to a work conference in a different city from Friday morning to Sunday night. So i'm meant to go to school then get picked up by Alessandro after school and go home to their house. I can't. I just can't.
I mean i am the most awkward person i know and i really just can't. I mean seriously what was my mum thinking. She at least could of been there but noooo she had to go on a conference. I begged and begged her to just let me go stay at Mia and Alivia's but she said no and got really angry and hurt.
This is going to be a nightmare i say to myself. I'm packing my things tonight so i'm ready to go tomorrow, have i mentioned i really don't want to go? Because i really don't want to.
I have loner by yungblud playing loudly in my headphones as i'm trying to pick out what to bring. I get my phone, phone charger, laptop, laptop charger, headphones, earphones and extra headphones, 3 reading books, all my school books and finally some clothes and my wash bag. I don't pack my phone and charger because i'm obviously going to need them tonight to read Wattpad stories.
But i pack everything else into my bag and put it at the front door, mums going to drop it off tomorrow morning before she gets on her flight.
Its 2am and i'm still not asleep, i just can't stop thinking about what this weekends going to be like and i am dreading it sooo much.
I started listening to some music to make me feel sleepy, i was listening to Saturn by sleeping at last (which is an amazing song by the way) and then all of a sudden i'm listening to come alive from The greatest showman which makes me super hyper and not ready to sleep.
"Ugh" i say getting out of bed and walking to the kitchen getting ready to make a midnight snack. It's a PB&J sandwich.
I bring my snack into my bedroom and begin eating it. When I really don't want to do something I think about the thing (that I don't want to do) over and over, trying to think of some way to get myself out of doing it. It's worked for some things, like for doing the dishes I convinced my Mum that I got rashes on my hands because of the soap and then when she got me gloves the gloves gave me rashes too. Or when I have to go to school on a class presentation day, I fake sick, it's a very typical thing to do but it usually does the job. So that gave me an idea, just fake deathly sick tomorrow so that no body will want to go near me! Then I can stay at home all day tomorrow and watch The It crowd! It would be perfect. But actual if i just don't go home with Alessandro and say I'm sick, surly he's not gonna care enough to come all the way to my house to pick me up.
And on that happy thought I fall into a deep sleep.
It's the next day and i am already for school.
I leave my bag down stairs with everything inside it because i know for a fact mum will check it before i go to make sure i have everything, and so i have to leave my laptop in the bag or else she will suspect something.
I walk to school and go about my day as i normally would.
When the bell rings Alessandro texts me saying to meet him where he usually parks after school, but i text back saying that i'm sick and can't go anymore and i'm just going to go home.
I start walking home but when i get there, there is Alessandro's car in the driveway. Oh shit i say to myself, this is not good.
This is when i wish i could transform into a bug and nobody would ever be able to find me. I walk up to the house door pretending not to see his car.
"Hey Leah, get in. Your Mum said you will probably say your sick but that i still have to pick you up" Alessandro yells from his car.
"Uh, well this time i actually am sick, so, bye" i say awkwardly while fumbling with my house key trying to unlock the house.
"Hurry up Leah i'm hungry" Zeke says
I turn around and notice someone else in the car. He's friends with Alessandro, i think his names Dante.
"Fuck" i say under my breath. I have no clue how to get out of this one.
Dante gets out of the front seat and gets in the back,
"Come on Leah!" Zeke yells from the back seat
"Fine" I yell back and get in the front seat.
The car ride was awkward.
Well for me, not the others, they just carried on talking like i wasn't there, it was just what they were talking about was awkward.
Zeke kept going on about how he was going to get with some girl called Tarrah tonight at some party they were all going to. Alessandro just kept talking about how he was going to get so drunk and hopefully not remember the night and Dante was talking about how he was going to fight someone called Zack and win.
I just sat there in the front looking outside.
"Hey Leah are you gonna come?" Dante asks
"Come to what?" I reply
"To the party duh" Zeke says
"Nah"
"Why not?" Dante asks
"I don't like them"
"How don't you like parties?" Alessandro says
"I just don't" I say and continue looking out the window
"Have you ever been to one?" Zeke says
"Well, no"
"Then you've got to come" Dante says
"Nope"
"Yep"
"Nope"
"Yep"
"Nope"
"Come on it'll be fun, you can bring your friends" Alessandro says breaking the repetition
"She doesn't have any Sandro" Zeke says laughing
"Yes i do"
"Then why do you always sit alone?"
"They just don't go to our school"
"You don't have any"
"Yes i do!"
"Then bring them!"
"No!"
"Oh for god's sake if she doesn't have any she can't bring them" Dante says butting in
"I do have friends!"
"I don't believe you" Zeke says rolling his eyes "bring them then i can believe you"
"I don't care if you believe me or not"
But just then my phone starts ringing.
"See look it's one of them now!" I say picking it up. Sadly for me everyone could hear what Mia was saying because i had my volume accidentally turned the full way up.
"Hey Mia"
"Hey ok so we're going to a party tonight, i'll text you the address"
"I can't go-"
"Look I know you've never been to one but this one is going to be awesome so you have to come and-"
"See i told you" Zeke says loudly
"Who's that?" Mia says
"Zeke"
"Oh i forgot, can you still go?"
"Yes she can" Dante said
"Ok cool, i'll text you the address"
She hangs up the phone.
"See i told you i had friends" I say in a matter of fact way.
"What's the address of the party?" Dante says
I look down at my phone and read out the address
"Hey that's the one were going to" Dante says
"Oh great" I say sarcastically and look out the window again.
