Fast In My Car
The Sorority
TONY'S POV
I stared at the date on the board - I had been at the school for a week. I had been in San Diego for two. I slouched in my seat as I thought about home and my friends back there. Ohio wasn't as nice in terms of the views, but the people all meant something to me. I held fond memories with nearly everyone in my year, but the best recollections I had were those of the summers me and my friends Jack and Sam shared when we went up the mountains to camp.
'Sam stay still, it won't attack if you stay still!' exclaimed Jack as we sat and watched a terrified Sam from the safety of a tree. The mountain lion stood still as if it was just waiting for the opportunity to pounce.
'Guys,' he whimpered, 'fucking help me you a-assholes.'
I turned to my left and snapped off a few small twigs, I nudged Jack and gestured for him to do the same. Once we had a small pile, I took them in one hand and flung them at it. Being touched all over, the cat panicked and began to hiss as it jumped around. Jack began to clap and shout, making as much noise as possible, and I joined in. The startled cat retreated to the bushes and we watched the leaves move as it ran away from us all.
'My god,' breathed out Sam.
'Pack up,' interrupted the teacher.
I took my books and shoved them carelessly into my bag. I took my phone out and read through my new messages - one was from my Mum about picking up milk and the other was Mike inviting me to a movie night at the Fuentes household. I accepted the invitation before sliding my phone back into my pocket as I was receiving a death stare from the teacher.
'What's your number?' said a high pitched voice from behind me. I turned to see the girl from the other day, the one with the tangerine skin. 'Let me see your phone and I'll give you mine,' she smiled.
The bell rang - thanfully - which saved me from the awkward situation I was in. Leaping off my seat, I hurried out of the classroom and down the hall.
JULIE'S POV
'Sarah, help me,' I moaned, running the brush through my hair repeatedly as I wasn't satisfied with how it looked.
'It doesn't matter, it's only a movie night Jewl,' she replied whilst applying a little eyeliner. She had on skinny blue jeans and a Northlane sweater whilst I was in black skinny jeans and a We Came As Romans tank top with a plain black hoodie over the top. She had her ginger hair tied up in a messy bun and I was allowing my curly brown mess to fall down on my shoulders - we both had a little make up on and were wearing vans.
'Let's go before you change your outift again,' she laughed as she watched me tug at the jeans I was wearing. I nodded in agreement and followed her out of the house. She locked the door behind us and we clambered into her car with a few bags of food in our hands.
We pulled up the the beautiful house that belonged to the Fuentes brothers. Stepping out of the car, we admired the perfect lawn and well-kept plants as we made our way to the door.
'Come in!' grinned Mike, opening the door seconds after we chapped it. He guided us through to the livingroom where everyone else (Jaime, Tony and Vic) were. 'Parents are away for the weekend, we're home alone!' continued Mike excitedly.
'What movie then?' I asked, setting out all the food on the table in the centre of the room.
'What about The Sorority? Can never go wrong with a scary movie.' We all agreed to his choice and he slipped it in the DVD player before taking a seat on the armchair, his legs dangling over the edge. I was sitting in the middle of the three seater, Jaime on one side and Tony on the other. Sarah was on the other couch with Vic and they seemed to be getting on well; very well.
The movie started and we all watched as people began to get their heads chopped off, dissapear and a variety of screams were filling the room every now and then (from the movie, not us). I moved my eyes away from the TV for a second, wondering what everyone else was like. Sarah was snuggled up to Vic, Mike was spread across the couch, his head resting on his folded arms which were on the armrest nearest the screen. Jaime was munching on some chips and Tony was sitting very formally. He looked uneasy and it made me a little sad, does he not like me now either?
I sighed a little too loud and Jaime caught on. He put his hand on my thigh and squeezed it, a kind of 'are you okay?' if you will. I turned to face him and he gave a confusing look, I nodded my head a little before stealing a chip from his bag. At that moment, Tony jumped up and hurried out of the room. His departure went unnoticed as the rest of the group were focused on the TV. It was nearly ten minutes before he returned, his eyes red and slightly puffy. Please don't tell me Mike has got him into weed.
My phone buzzed loudly in my pocket, gaining me a look of dissaproval from Vic. I pulled it out to see a text from my Mum.
From: Mum
Hello honey, I'm sorry but you need to come home now. I've arranged for your Dad to take you to the dancing workshop tomorrow, he wants to spend the whole day with you. Please come home asap, you'll need a good nights sleep. Much love, Mum. x
I groaned before delivering the news to everyone, 'Guys, I need to go home. Can one of you give me a lift? I came in Sarah's car...' I felt bad asking, but the walk to my place was at least half an hour.
'I'd drive you but I came in Tony's car,' said Jaime with a dissapointed tone.
'I'll drive you,' said Tony softly as he stood up.
'Thanks.'
He grabbed his hoodie and made his way to the car, I was hot on his trail the whole way. Unlocking it, we both plopped ourselves in and sat in the silence for a second. He smiled at me briefly before turning on the ignition and pulling out of the parking space.
'So you and Jaime, huh?'
'What?'
'Isn't there something going on between you two?'
'No, not at all. What's your problem with him?' I spoke with a little more anger than intended.
'I don't have a problem wi-'
'Oh come on, you act so cold when he's around. Just tell me why you don't like him.'
'I do Julie.'
'Bullshit.' I grumbled.
Before I knew it, Tony had reached my street. I stated my house number and he found it with a minute. He said nothing as I climbed out of the car and slammed the door shut. Storming up the path, I entered the house and ran past my mum, stumbling into my bedroom with tears streaming down my face. I didn't know why I was crying so much, but I was. I couldn't hold back the tears at all.
