Capítulo 31: 18 reasons (2)
I had just finished Mr Luca's class and he delayed us for extra 40 minutes after school ended. His reason? He wanted to tell us the importance of not getting married!
I walk towards Trish car to see her sitting on the hood of her car looking down at her phone.
"Hey Trish." I call to her and she looks up.
"Hey. What kept you so long. I thought you had left with Christian but then I knew you would have sent me a text." She says getting down and she walks to her side of the car while I walked to my side.
"Well, Mr Luca decided to use 40 minutes after lesson to tell us why we-" I stopped mid sentence because sitting on the car seat, is another card and rose.
Trish noticed I stopped talking because she spoke up.
"Oh. I saw that on my wind shield when I got to the car." She said pointing at card and I look at her.
"Really?"
"Yeah. So what does it say?" Trish asks and I start to read aloud.
"There's so much about
You that I like a lot
To describe how I feel,
Words, there are not
It's too much for me
To convey in a few lines
Why I like
To call you mine."
Damn that stupid blush and butterflies.
"Yup. Disgusted it is." Trish grunts out as she enters the car and starts it. "Are you coming or what?" She asks as I still stood by the door and smile happily.
"Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm in already." I put on my seat belt and the smile doesn't leave my face.
I haven't heard or spoken with Christian since we spoke this morning, and I was starting to wonder what he has up his sleeve.
Trish drops me off at home and I'm about to leave when Trish speaks up.
"Oh. Dress up tonight."
"Why?"
"Well because duh! We have to celebrate your 18th birthday!"
"We?"
"Yeah. You and me at our favorite bar."
"Wait. You mean?" I ask excitedly.
"Yes Ashley. Blub." She says and I scream. Blub is owned by a mexican guy and it is the best bar and club in Oaksville. They serve both mexican and american drinks. The bar has a club in it so he had it named Blub.
"Really Trish? Really?" I ask jumping in my seat.
"Yeah. Ash really." She says and I hug her.
"Wait. What time are you picking me up?"
"Um. 8ish?" She says and my eyes widen. One thing about blub is that they are always open.
Always.
"What am I still waiting for then? I have to bathe, do my makeup, look for a dress. Oh my god!" I say frantically as I pull my bag and get out of Trish's car, running to the front door.
"Relax girl, it's still 4!" She laughs.
"Yeah. Not enough time!" I stop running when I get to the front door to see something taped on it.
"Yeah right!" Trish laughs and drives off. I pull the familiar card and rose from my door and read.
"I'm addicted to you
Like I would to a game,
I feel all crazy inside
When I say your name
I can't leave without you
Just like I can't live without my phone
You being by my side
Makes me know I'm not alone
I like you.
This is like the hundredth time I'm smiling today and I love it. I open the door, dump my bag on the floor and race upstairs but not before I notice the card and rose sitting on the centre table in the living room.
I walk into the living room and pick up both the card and rose.
"The heart has no reason
To like someone
The mind has no logic
To be fond of a person
The soul has no rationale
To pick one out of a crowd
So I really don't know why
About you I'm so crazy
All I know is that,
Your boyfriend, I'm proud to be."
I smile to myself as I walk upstairs to get ready for my dinner date with Trish.
I enter my room to find as y'all guessed, another card and rose on my bed. I smile before I even reach my bed.
"You are so unique, in your own way
You are so beautiful, in words I can't say
You are so attractive, I just can't describe
What I feel about you, is a very special vibe.
I just can't find the right words to describe you
All I know is that, baby
The feelings I have for you, is so true.
I jumped up excitedly in my room and set the cards on the bed.
I walk into the bathroom and fill my tub with water and my honey scent soap. I leave it to fill up and I turn to look at the mirror to see another card. It's like every where I turn to, there's a card there. I take the card and of course rose and read it.
"Ever since I saw you
For the very first time
My world has become sweet
Just like this cute rhyme
I wish that you too
Will like me like I do"
He has no idea how much I do.
I put the card back on the sink, discard my clothes and enter my tub. The water was hot, so it relaxed my muscles. I spent an hour in the tub and showered for like ten minutes before putting on my white fluffy bath robe and walked into my closet.
I went to the side of my closet where my rarely worn party clothes were. When I saw a white cloth cover at the far end of the rack, I moved closer to it. I saw a white card taped to it and smiled.
"So Trish got me new clothes." I smile to myself.
I took the clothes and picked up the card to read.
"From the time we first met
My heart has been singing rhymes
And I just haven't slept
All I keep thinking about
Is how I'm still with you
Maybe this poem is the only way that I
Can know this is really true."
I unzipped the cloth cover took out a wine off shoulder A-line dress. It also looked pretty short.
I quickly got dressed to go put on my makeup.
For my makeup, I mixed a little foundation and a little highlighter together for extra glow, I used contour for the socket of my eyes and my cheekbones. I used my eye liner to make my eye a little cat like, my mascara and brow gel, then I was done. I also used velvet for my lipstick.
My hair has started to grow a little past my shoulders, so I had it trimmed earlier this week. I parted my hair in the center and straightened it to a blunt bob. I put on my gold hoop earrings, and I walked back to the closet for some shoes and bag.
I put on my black open toe heels and picked a small black purse. And I was set.
I walked to my full length mirror to have a final look at myself. I looked beautiful and happy. I picked up my phone from the bed to check the time, when I saw a missed call from Emily. So I dialed her back.
"Hey sweetie, happy birthday!"
"Thanks Emily. Sorry I missed your call, I didn't know when I rang."
"No worries dear. So Trisha tells me you have plans tonight?"
"Yeah we are going to blub."
"Really? That's nice."
"I know right?"
"I don't want to keep you from getting ready so bye! And Mark says happy birthday!" She quickly says and hangs up.
I really checked the time this time, to see it was almost eight so I left my room.
I entered the kitchen to get a quick drink when I heard a ping from my phone and saw it was a message from an unknown number.
"Happy birthday Lee
Sorry it's coming late."
There's only one person who calls me Lee. Just one.
I dial the number, but it kept on ringing and ringing until it stopped so I dialed again. And this time it was picked on the third ring.
"Hey Lee."
"T-tyler?"
