Chapter four~ Pool Party

I get my lazy ass off the couch to go get ready for Amy's pool party. "Sara will kill me if I miss this party so what should I wear". I'm standing in front of my closet looking for a pool outfit. I decide on a black single hand top and an orange floral skirt with thigh high slit and a brown sandals to go. I curl my light brown hair a bit at the edge. Once I'm done I look at the mirror impressed and leave.

At the party

I reach the party and hell it was crowded. Not too long I spotted Sara and she pulled me in a hug.

"You're killing it girl". She said totally checking me out.

"Hehe... thanks!"I blush

"So what now?"she asks

"What do you mean?" I say confused

"Blake is here and you need t.." she doesn't finish what she was saying

"SHUSH!!! Don't even wanna hear his name". I scold

"Then do something about it. Just go and... UH-OH!" She stops

"What?" I ask

"6 o'clock" she says and I see Blake reaching over to me. Although I didn't feel like talking to him AT ALL.. I don't have a choice.

"Hey Kara! You haven't been returning any of my calls. Listen babe?" I glare at him." I mean.. please let's just...let me explain.." he rambles

"I don't even wanna see your face right now and there is nothing to explain".I say calmly

"I didn't mean to...I swear..."

"Don't test me Blake!"I yell loosing my calm.

"I should just leave you to it"Sara says as she turns to me. "And btw Blake.."she slaps him leaving him all shocked and embarrassed. I couldn't help but smile a little at her sudden outburst.

Then she turns to me and says," I will see you when you're done"

"Ok".I reply as she walks away

"She shouldn't have done that?" He says infuriated

"You very well deserved it" I retorted

"I'm not here to fight! Listen to me.."he said obviously mad

"I'm out. I don't want to listen to you. You and I", I say gesturing to us "are OVER"

"You can't do that!"he says pulling on his hair

"Yes I can. You're the one who ruined everything"I snap

"Look please.. I know I messed up, and I am so sorry..it was just..just a mistake. It meant nothing. I didn't.."he pleads

"SHUT UP!" I yell, "I SAID WE ARE OVER. There's nothing you can say or do to change my mind, so don't bother. JUST. LEAVE".I sigh rubbing my forehead

"Kara babe.."

"I hate you Blake and I don't wanna see your face againnn!" I say and walk away from him

***************************************

I'm feeling at peace as soon as I walk away from Blake. Finally!!!. Sara was so right. I really do feel a lot better now. He got what he deserved. JERK!!!

I was in my train of thought when I suddenly bumped into a guy.

"Are you ok?" I ask. I accidentally spilled juice over his T-shirt. Whoa!!! Who are YOU? He's so handsome and hot!

"I.. I wasn't lo.. looking" I stutter

"Hey! Done stuttering?" He smirks

"Um..hi..I didn't mean to.." I trail. He seems familiar

"It's ok, don't worry about it" hottie said

I smile a bit awkwardly but before I could excuse myself he introduced himself.

"I'm Alex btw"hottie said

"Hi.." I tried my best to sound confident

"Let me get you another drink" he said

"What? But I...just ruined your shirt and your asking to buy me a drink?" I ask shocked

He laughs"ha ha.. yes! We're at a party and it's normal to spill some drinks here and there Kara.

"How do you know my n..."

"I'll be back"he says leaving me confused.

Before think of anything else, Sara jumps out at me scaring the crap outta me.

"Hey! I could have a heart attack" I say with my hands on my chest

"Chillax! You won't die so soon" she has the guts to laugh at me

"Hilarious"I say dryly

"Anyway.. are you okay?"she asks concerned

"I've been better.." I say truthfully

"You did the right thing"she smiles

"Yea, I did"I smile

"So I see you two have met" she says out of the blue

Confused I ask "Who"

"You don't remember, do you?"she grins. What the hell is she talking about

"Umm..I don't...who are you talking about?"I ask cos I'm confused already

"I told you it was a surprise" she laughs

"Stop messing with her!!" Alex says

Sara laughs" ok ok. I will stop now."

"You..."I look at Alex. Do I know him?. My eyes widen with the words Sara says next.

"Hello.. brother".she grins

Brother. "What??"I ask

"Thanks..for ruining it sis" Alex says rolling his eyes," I was in no mood to expose myself...YET!!" He smiles at me

"Alex??". My brain starts chanting childhood crush.

"You haven't forgotten..huh! At least not entirely"he laughs

"You.. you're back?" I sound like a broken record now with how I've been repeating words

"Yes I am. Miss stutters" he grins. Oh! that smile

"No kara, he's not a figment of your imagination" she laughs then turns to her brother, "she's just surprised"

"Yes"I say

"I can see that. Oh! Excuse me" Alex excused himself to go attend to a call

"You're so.."she breaks off laughing

"Do I have something on my face?" I ask as I rub my face trying to clean whatever was there

"Yeah"she says still amused

"What?"I ask

"A RED BLUSH..if you ask me"she grins

"No!"

"Don't even. You were totally checking him...I saw."

"Hey!" My blush deepens

"Childhood crush is resurfacing I see". Sara looks me over

"What!..no no".I say quickly

"Hmm??"she says not believing a word

"SHUTTT UP!!. I got a little confused...that's all"

Sara laughs" really!"

"It's not like that". Busted, I guess

"Like I would believe you!!. You were totally flabbergasted" she laughs, "Anyway!how do you like my surprise? She asks smiling
