Autumn's pov
-
For the love of God, who in the world created best friends! Their entire existence is based on tormenting your life and annoying the living shit out of you
"I know your bitch ass had a role in a horror movie! ALL ACTORS STARTED IN A SHITTY HORROR MOVIE THAT THEY REGRET" Ethan screeched through the entire restaurant as he held a champagne glass to the air
"Oh for fuck sakes" I groaned, lifting the neck of my shirt to cover my face that was already burning from embarrassment
Not to sound braggy or anything but I was accustomed to having all eyes on me when I was in a room, but this was just different. And by different, I mean embarrassing
"I just KNOW she was the first one to be killed off" Jamie snickered
"No! She's the main character in her story" Ethan laughed
"Oh god" I groaned, sinking even deeper into my chair
The big twenty one years old. Here I was on my birth night in some random restaurant with two clowns I adore being flustered out of my life
Well I can't say this was the first-
I'm sure you've all been waiting on my pov since the first chapter of this book, well here it is
You want answers and insights? I got you
I've already wanted to rip some part of Kate apart, whether being her flesh or now her clothes
The girl's always been annoying and no one can say differently, she talks and pushes people to their boundaries , especially when they don't want to be pushed and I found it highly annoying
Little did I know that was exactly what I needed, a push to get me out of the sick mindset I've grown accustomed to
I think May's plan of putting us together might have been the best thing to happen, although I hated it in the beginning
I never expected to let someone in, especially that short, hot headed brunette who I just wanted to scramble every time I saw her
But just like life, it happened. I didn't expect it but good things comes when we least expect it, right?
There was just something about her that made me fall into a trance. Everything she smiled my heart would just do this stupid swelling thing and I hated it. I hated the fact that I couldn't control how I was around her. Her small giggle she does and looks away blushing melted me to my goddamned core, I remember replaying the image over and over in my head for days and always having that same damn feeling travel through my veins like electricity
It was scary. I've never wanted someone so badly, I've never felt something for someone so intensely, it was crushing my heart and my mind
Do you know what it's like to crave someone, to need them like you've never needed anyone before but you can't do a single thing about it because you don't know how they felt? And you're way too confused to confront it because what if things change for the worse? What if it doesn't go as we expect it to and everything just crumbles. Our smile, our happiness, everything just vanishes in a few seconds
The hardest part was having those confusing feelings inside you, was dealing it by yourself. Not having a single person to turn and talk to because you're too damn scared of letting someone see you more than you allow. But then the only person you can actually talk to is the same person you're even confused about
I think I started falling for Kate after that interview. No one's held me in such a way that made me forget who I was and just melted into then. Heck, no one's ever cared to
Yet she sat there, didn't even flinch during my aggressive breakdown. She just held me tight, making me know that nothing else mattered but us in that very moment
To find someone like that is to find everything you've been searching for. So hold onto them and make them know that you appreciate every second of every day you spend with them
"Can we just leave now, I have a headache" I groaned
The two teenagers glanced between each other before looking down at their phones, it's weird. They've been sketchy since the starting of the day, casually checking their phones at the same time but that could just be their thing
"Yeah we get you home" Jamie said
"I hope your old ass can make it down the stairs" Ethan smirked
"You bitc-"
"SHUT IT GRANDMA" He yelled
"Why you-" I dashed out my chair as quickly as I could to strangle the boy but he was faster
Ethan ducked under the table in a swift move, I'm sure his back bumped against the flat surface below causing the table to shake and twist, making the glass and forks slam against each other before hitting the floor, splitting into pieces and making the loudest damn noise in the restaurant
If all eyes weren't already on us, they sure were now. Well, might as well throw it all the window
The boy scrambled out from under the table and glanced over at me. My eyes squinted as I ran around the edge of the table, following him
Ethan laughed as he dashed out, splitting through the circular tables around and brushing past the guests
"ETHAN!"
"YES GRANNY?" The boy called out, only fueling my adrenaline even more
"God what is happening!" Jamie groaned, dashing a few bills onto the table before pushing back her own chair and running behind us
"COME ON GRANNY, I KNOW THEM TITANIUM HIPS COULD DO BETTER THAN THAT" Ethan screamed through the restaurant
"IM GONNA BURY YOU WITH YOUR EXS. OH WAIT, YOU DON'T HAVE ANY"
"THAT'S BECAUSE MY MAN IS LOYAL! YOU SHOULD ASK YOUR EXS IF THEY'RE LOYAL. OH WAIT, TMZ CAN GIVE YOU THE ANSWER. OOPS" Ethan screamed, dashing through the hall
"ETHAN I'M GONNA KILL YOU, YOU PIECE OF SHIT" I hissed
"YOU PROMISE DADDY?" Ethan yelled
But as the words left his mouth, his arm crashed into the edge of a flat metal surface, something anyone in his position would fear to run into. The waiter fell backwards and the tray that was carrying glasses of champagne was tossed over, splashing onto some couple that was making out in the corner of the room
"Shit! I'm so sorry!" Ethan hissed as he dropped low to hold the boy's hand, pulling him up to his feet
I swear, I've never laughed so hard in my life. My neck tilted back as I allowed the howls of laughter to leave my throat. The fact that Karma played her role so well was throwing me in a state. Ah, this is what victory looks like.
"I'm so so so sorry, oh my god" Ethan groaned, helping to pick up the pieces of glass on the floor
"Ugh God, what did you two do" Jamie rolled her eyes as she approached us
"Me? I didn't do anything" I chuckled
"Autumn" she glared
"What? I really didn't" I smiled
"Go help cleanup. God you two are children" Jamie glared, putting her arms on her waist
"But-"
"But nothing. Go. Clean. Up" She said sternly
There's not alot of things I fear in this world but when Jamie goes all mama crazy on you, you just have to obey. Maybe it was me getting turned on by women in power or my raging mommy issues
I rolled my eyes and made my way over towards where the metal tray had rolled away, landing in front of the two couple that had been completely soaked in liquid
I sighed and dipped low, picking up the tray and slowly making my way back up, knowing I'd have to apologize towards the customers and my ego was already bruised
"What the fuck is wrong with you people!" The man hissed
For some reason the voice sounded oddly familiar, but I shrugged it off since his tone was much more aggressive to the fact that he was soaked in ice
"Yeah I'm sorry about tha-" I started to say, lowering my eyes over the couple
But my words failed me as well as my body that stood there frozen, almost paralyzed at what I had to see. Or who I had to see sitting in front of my, soaked with champagne
"Brooke?... And... Hunter?"
