Friday night was pretty uneventful. I cleaned my room and hung out with Nicole for a bit. Then Saturday I slept until dinner and it was glorious. Saturday night, I saw Kurt again. Seeing him again was kind of a bittersweet experience. We laughed and talked and he was charming and I was loud. But the fact that he has a girlfriend was like a bad aftertaste in my mind the whole night.
We met at the coffee house at around seven. At first it was just me, Kurt, Laura, and two of our other friends (one who is kind of bitchy but lovable at the same time, and her boyfriend). We started out just talking and stuff when Victoria showed up with this one girl who I find to be annoying but loves me and always wants to hang out. The girl that annoys me just saw us and put her stuff down in the spot next to Laura, like we invited her or something. From there another of Annoying Girl’s friends came and sat with us, also uninvited, and Melanie texted me saying she was bored, so she showed up too.
We played HedBanz – the game where you have a noun plastered to your forehead and you have to ask yes or no questions until you figure it out -, played card games for a while, and Kurt changed the background on my phone to a slideshow of pictures of us together. Then Annoying Girl and her friend went home, and so did Laura. By this time it was almost midnight, the time that the coffee house closes. Victoria begged us to go out and get burgers.
The problem with that was, before everyone showed up, Laura invited me, Kurt, Bitchy Girl and Bitchy Girl’s Boyfriend to go to her house after the coffee shop closed. I’d already told Melanie about this, and she was cool cause she had other plans with Alex. The problem was Victoria. Laura doesn’t like Victoria so we couldn’t invite her to come with us. But we didn’t want to be mean and ditch her either. We decided to go get food and then we’d all act tired and “go home” separately, then meet at Laura’s.
By the time we left the restaurant Kurt had given me his sweatshirt because I was freezing. I tried not to show it, but I was practically giddy just wearing the thing. He was my chauffeur all night because there’s some sort of problem with out of my tires and my dad told me not to drive. The ride to Laura’s house wasn’t too exciting though because we were just listening to the radio and singing our lungs out. I liked it though, because I like being alone with him. He’s so likable that when he’s with a group of people, he’s talking to everyone at the same time and pays less attention to me. I don’t even care if that sounds selfish.
Not much happened at Laura’s. Bitchy Girl fell asleep fairly quickly, her boyfriend was laughing his ass off on Tumblr, and Kurt, Laura and I watched Dragon Ball Z. I’ve never seen that show before in my life so I had no idea what was going on. Laura got tired of me complaining, so she took Bitchy Girl’s Boyfriend upstairs with her and they went to find her mom’s Friends DVDs.
Kurt took this time alone (Bitchy Girl was asleep so she didn’t count) to ask me about my new therapist and lose to me at Uno. The fact that he remembered I was seeing a new therapist and that he actually cared to ask me about it made my heart melt. We talked about the ADD questioneers and my new method for getting along with my parents (the acting one). Bitchy Girl’s Boyfriend and Laura came back down and we watched Friends until Kurt and I were both falling asleep. Bitchy Girl offered to drive me home since she lives down the street from me. I gave Kurt a probably inappropriately long hug and tried not to cry.
I didn’t get home until about 4am. I was brushing my teeth, about to crash into my pillow when my phone rang. It was Kurt. He wanted to make sure I got home okay. My heart melted again. He told me to text him in the morning, and I went to sleep with a smile on my face.
Today Melanie woke me up at noon and told me to take a shower because she’d be over in 20 minutes. We went shopping for prom dresses. I texted Kurt like I said I would, and Mel even convinced me to ask him to prom, strictly as friends, of course. He said he couldn’t because Bitchy Girl already asked him (her boyfriend is 22 and according to our school’s policy, that’s too old for a guest), but he turned her down because he doesn’t have money for a tux. He assured me that in different circumstances he’d have said yes “in an action movie heartbeat”.
After shopping we went to dinner and when I got home I surfed Reddit for a bit and did my homework. I didn’t find a dress, so we’re going to go again this Friday. I’m very picky about finding the perfect dress. I’m also very indecisive, and I’m on a budget. Not a good combination.
xoxo,
Melanie
P.S. I got an interview at the movie theater. And I asked one of the guys I know that works there and he said that basically getting an interview there means that you’ve got the job. Yay! :D I just hope I’m not the exception to that rule, because that wouldn’t help my self-esteem one bit.
