Oops


"YES, sophomore year is FINALLY here!!!!!!" Cori practically shouts which causes people to turn in our direction and give us evil looks. Me, Cori, Janey, and Mariah are currently sitting at a table in the dining hall drinking fruit smoothies. We just finished unpacking out bags and making ourselves home in our new dorm rooms. I'm roommates with Cori again. I think the world might stop if we weren't.
"Girl, your acting as if you’re a senior. You've got two more years of school left, so chill" Mariah tells her with an amused grin. Cori sticks her tongue out at her.
"Whatever. I'm just glad it's a new year. And plus, you never know what might happen" Cori says with a mischievous look in her eyes. I grin. I know exactly what she's thinking about right now: new plans.
"And didn't you tell Eric that you weren't going to get into as much trouble this year. Kind of like a new year’s resolution?" I ask Cori still grinning. We all know that resolution is definitely going to fail. Big time.
"Yeah I did and guess what he said?" she asks us. I shrug, pretending that I don't know the answer.
"Try your best?" Janey says.
"I'm glad that your trying?" Mariah says next. I hide my smile behind my strawberry smoothies. They're not even close. Seriously, do you think Eric would say that?
"No. He said yeah right. Hell would freeze over if that actually happened" Cori tells us with a dramatic hurt expression on her face. I snort and roll my eyes. She is such a drama queen. Where is her crown? Mariah laughs out loud.
"He would say that" Mariah says while still laughing. I told Cori the same thing.
"Well I'm glad to know that my own boyfriend doesn't have faith in me. I'll file that away in my mind cabinet" Cori says pointing to her head. Mind cabinet? I wonder where she comes up with these things.
"Oh stop it. He's just stating the obvious" I tell her while pushing her shoulder a little.
"Well I'd like to remain oblivious" Cori says with a hmph. Don't we all sometimes? Speaking of boyfriend, Janey's is walking up to our table.
"Hey pumpkin sparkle, did you finish unpacking?" Jared asks her while giving her a kiss on the lips. Cori mouths 'pumpkin sparkle? Is he for real?’ I almost laugh out loud. We've never heard that one before.
"Yes cutie bear I did" she answers Jared while they rub noses together. Okay......well this is awkward. Cori pretends to gag. Mariah smiles happily for her friend. Once they've finished their nose business, Jared turns to the rest of us.
"Hello ladies" he says with a grin. Somehow Jared doesn't look as bad as he did last year. He actually looks decent. His face doesn't have as much acne and his hair isn't as oily.
"Hi Jared" Mariah says with a wave. She's actually good friends with him.
"Long time no see, huh cha-cha?" he asks Cori with a grin. Oh boy, here we go. Cori narrows her brown eyes at him.
"Yeah considering the last time I saw you was three weeks ago. I was planning on having a Jared free summer, but that didn’t happen" she says with an eye roll. I smirk. Geez, I wonder why?
"Well it’s not my fault, Eric and Janey's family invited me to come along in their family vacation" he says with a shrug. I snicker. Can you imagine how Cori reacted when she found out Jared would be their too? Cori glares at him some more.
"Oh come on Cori, he wasn't that bad" Janey says to her. Trust me; it was bad enough for Cori.
"What? At swimming? Because in that case, he was most definitely was" Cori says with a smirk.
"Yeah, I heard you almost drowned at the beach" I say to him. Cori begins to laugh. I still can't believe what happened.
"He was trying to show off his 'skills' but he ended up messing up and he went under the water for too long. Talk about a major fail" Cori tells us while still laughing. Me and Mariah are laughing too. You have to admit that is funny.
"Stop it you guys. He could have died. That was the scariest moment of my life" Janey says while placing her hand over her heart. They're a match made in heaven, huh?
"I told you! I didn't realize a big wave was approaching. Come on Janey, I don't want to be where I'm not wanted" Jared says in a huff and takes Janey's hand and leads her away from the table. Hmmm, I think he's a little embarrassed.
"It must still be a sore spot for him" Mariah says. You think?
"Who cares? He needs to man up and not show off while doing stupid stuff" Cori says while taking a sip of her smoothie. I shake my head at her. I think her heart is made out of stone at the moment.
"Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me? Don't cha wish your girlfriend was a freak like me? Don't cha, don't cha?"
I raise my eyebrows at Cori. What's up with that?
"Nice cell phone ring" I say sarcastically. She rolls her eyes.
"Yeah I know. I changed it to this because Eric said that I need to start being positive about myself and this is a perfect way to start. Don't you think?" she asks us as she stands up and grabs her purse. Me and Mariah stand up also as we get our stuff.
"If it makes you happy, then go for it" I say to her in dramatic fake understanding. Cori glares at me and give me a push. I laugh. I love messing with her sometimes. As we head toward the door, we say our goodbyes and head in different directions. I decide to take a leisurely walk back to my dorm since it is a nice afternoon and plus I don't want my summer tan to fade. Heehee. As I'm walking, I'm thinking about all the things I still need to do before classes start in a day. Get books? Check. Supplies? Check. Unpack my things? Check. Make sure Cori doesn't forget anything on her list? Doubled checked on that one. I'm sure you know why. Text Felipe? Oh yeah, I still need to text him. I sit down on a nearby bench and pull out my cell to send him a message.
Finished unpacking!!!! - Lily
Finally! Took you long enough - Felipe
What? I like things to be perfect - Lily
Mhmm. Or maybe you and Cori tried on clothes that you bought over the summer - Felipe. Hey, how did he know that? Can he read minds via text?
Okay you got me. We even did a fashion show with music and everything. It was pretty legit - Lily. Me and Cori are pros on the runway.
Lol you are one crazy señorita. I'm sure it was the best fashion show on campus - Felipe
Oh most definitely - Lily. Well, probably the ONLY fashion show on campus, but let's not mention that little detail.
Come to my dorm and take a nap with me. I'm sure your tired Lovie - Felipe. (Yawn) now that he mentions it, I am kinda tired.
Kay. I'll see you in a few - Lily. I stand up and start to walk to Felipe's dorm room. He's in a different dormitory this year, since he is a junior now. When I get to close to his building, I see Felipe at the entrance hugging a girl. Wait.....hugging a girl?!?! I quickly hide behind a tall oak tree and peek around it. Felipe finishes hugging that mystery girl and then kisses her on the cheek. Since I still have my phone in my hand, I quickly snap a picture of them. Sneaky, huh? They separate and then the girl walks away. As she walks away, I get a better view of her. Dang! She is really pretty. Like really, really pretty. I start to have a funny feeling in my stomach that I don't like at all. I peek again and see Felipe look around before heading inside. What was all that about? And why where they hugging so close? Funny feeling gets bigger. I hide behind the tree and sit down. This can't be good. Not at all. What am I going to do????
 Cori, I really got to tell you something - Lily
Tell me later. Snuggling time with Eric. Don't interrupt - Cori
But it's really important - Lily
Ugh!! What is sooooo important that it can't wait till later? - Cori
I broke up with Felipe - Lily
 WHAT!?!?! - Cori
its okay. Go back to snuggling time. I'll be fine - Lily.
After sending Cori that text message, I turn my cell off and throw it on the floor and lay back on my bed. I stare up at the ceiling and sigh. Well my life sure sucks right now. It was good one minute and then the next thing I know it's falling apart. Why did Felipe have to go and do that to me? My eyes start to water. No, Lily. Don't cry. He isn't worth it. As I continue to stare at the ceiling, the door suddenly slams open and Cori comes running in.
"what do you mean you broke up with Felipe?!? Are you serious??" she asks me. I look down at her bare feet.
"Where are your shoes?" I ask her. She jumps on my bed. Thanks for inviting yourself up here.
"There was no time to put shoes on. I had to come find you especially after hearing the big news" Cori tells me. It took her three minutes to run from Eric's dorm to ours which usually takes around eight minutes. That goes to show you that Cori can move fast when there is good gossip. You just witnessed it firsthand.
"What happened to snuggling time?" I ask her while folding my arms and raising my eyebrows. I thought she didn't want anybody to interrupt.
"This is more important at the moment. So quit stalling and tell me what happened. Now!!" Cori practically shouts at me. Sheesh, hold your horses.
"I told you. I broke up with Felipe" I tell her wincing as I think about it. I really don't want to think about it. Cori is soooo not helping me NOT think about it.
"WHEN?" she asks urgently.
"About twenty minutes ago" I say. I still can't believe I just broke up with Felipe twenty minutes ago.
"HOW?" Cori asks me next. I roll my eyes. She is acting as if she is a police detective trying to get the facts for a bloody murder.
"I called him" I tell her. And it was the hardest phone call of my life. Even harder than apologizing to my worst enemies. Which is shall remain nameless.
"WHY?!?!?" she shout at me. I glare at her. Enough of this already.
"Cori, you don't need to yell. I'm sitting right in front of you" I remind her while rolling my eyes. Is she blind?
"Sorry, I'm just so surprised. This was so unexpected. I never thought you'd ever break up with Felipe" Cori says to me a lot softer. Yeah, neither did I.
"so what happened?" Cori asks me. I take a deep breath.
"I was walking over to Felipe's dorm room. I was just texting him and I thought everything was fine. But when I walked to his dormitory I saw him standing outside with....." I drift off. I grab my cell and turn it on. I think I'll just so Cori the evidence.
"With who? Who, who, WHO????" Cori me impatiently. I lift my hand out to tell her to chill again. It's not my fault iPhones take forever to turn on. Once it's on, I go to my photos and press the scandalous photo.
"And I saw him with HER!" I say to Cori and show her the picture. Cori quickly grabs my phone and looks at the picture. Her face turns into disgust.
"Who is SHE?" she asks me. That's what I'd like to know too.
I shrug.
"I don't know, but just look at her" I say. She is soooo pretty.
"I know! Just what is she thinking by wearing that outfit? The colors totally clash" Cori says. Of course Cori would be looking at her outfit.
I roll my eyes.
"I wasn't talking about her outfit" I say dryly.
"Oh. Well I guess she's okay looking. You can't really see her face in these pictures" Cori says holding my phone to her face. Well maybe you can't see it on my phone, but I sure did in real life.
"She’s really pretty" I tell her. Cori rolls her eyes this time.
"She’s okay, but she doesn't deserve Felipe. You do" she says. I sigh sadly. I don't even know what to think anymore.
"Don’t worry Lily. I'll find out who she is" Cori says with an evil smirk. I don't like the looks of that.
"I don't really care what you do. Just....don't go crazy, okay?" I ask her.
"Lily, please. I know what I'm doing. Just let me handle this. I'll get to the bottom of it" Cori tells me. That's exactly what I'm worried about. I'm about to tell Cori about her failed attempts of 'handling' things when I hear a knock on the door.
 "Shhhhhh. Don't make a sound" I whisper to Cori. She nods her head in understanding. We both look to the door and listen.
"Lily, sweetie? It's me, Felipe. I don't know if you’re here or not but if you are, just hear me out okay? I don't know what went wrong between us. Everything was fine as far as I knew. I honestly don't know what I did to make you want to break up with me. I love you so much, mi Amor. Please don't let us end. Your mi Vida. Mi Alma. Tu eres mi todo. Please come talk to me, baby. So we can work it out. I love you" Felipe tells me through me and Cori's door. Wow! I don't know what to think about that? Does Felipe mean what he said? Does he actually love me? I have a lot to think about. After he leaves, Cori looks at me.
"What did he say in Spanish?" she asks me curiously. I smile slightly remembering what Felipe said. 'Your mi Vida. Mi Alma. Tu eres mi todo.' I'm his life, his soul, and I'm his everything. He always told me that, like after he just spanked me. It always made me feel special and happy that I was his. Now I'm not his anymore. I feel tears coming to my eyes.
"Look it up" I tell Cori and push her off my bed. She huffs.
"Geez, you don't have to be mean. What did you say to him when you broke up with him, anyway?" she asks me next while sitting on her own bed. I lie back down on my bed and look up at the ceiling again.
"I just said that I don't want to be in a relationship with him anymore and that I'm sorry, but we're done. I didn't give him time to talk since I hung up the phone" I say. Good thing we're not together anymore because if we were and I hung up the phone on him.....well let's just say he would not be pleased; at all.
 "You’re better off without him. If he wants to cheat on you, that's his problem; not yours" Cori tells me softly. It still hurts though. I feel tears running down my face.
"Thanks. Anyway, don't you have some stalking to do?" I ask her. Cori stands while grabbing her sunglasses and heads for the door.
"Indeed I do" she says with a smirk. She puts on her sunglasses. I roll my eyes.
"Um, Cori? It's getting dark outside, I don't think your gonna need your sunglasses" I tell her.
"Lily, all great spies/stalkers need to look the part. Plus, I look super cute in these too" she says with a grin. She sends me an air kiss and leaves our room. She is crazy sometimes, but that just makes her awesome.
 The Next Morning:
The coast is clear. You can come now - Cori
Are you positive? - Lily
No, he's standing right next to me. Of course I'm positive. He just left a minute ago - Cori
Okay, I'm coming- Lily
I leave my dorm room and walk toward the dining hall. Cori made sure that Felipe wasn't there. I really don't want to face him right now; I'm not ready. As I walk toward the dining hall, I see a lot of people out this morning. Usually on Sunday morning, it isn't this busy. But it's probably because of everyone getting in this morning since school starts tomorrow. I'm a few feet away from the dining hall doors when I see a couple walking ahead of me. My eyes widen and my stomach churns. I see Felipe walking with his new girlfriend. Ugh! They aren't holding hands but they are walking really close to each other; kind of like how me and Felipe used to walk together. I slow my steps and let them get way ahead of me. I don't think I'm hungry anymore. I walk to a nearby tree and pull my cell out of my purse.
I'm not hungry anymore. Can you guess why? - Lily
OMG!! Is it because Felipe and his new girlfriend just walked in? - Cori
Yeah, you guessed it. You win the million dollar prize - Lily
Ugh! The nerve of that guy. Oh and I'll take my money in cash - Cori
In your dreams. I'm gonna head back to our dorm. Cya later - Lily
I'll bring food to you later - Cori
I head back to our dorm room with tears streaming down my face. Why does all the bad stuff happen to me?
That afternoon:
"so the nerds are acting different this year. Like they are more brave or something?" Cori tells me as she is painting her toe nail in our dorm room. She's painting them 'shopaholic pink.' It fits her perfectly, huh?
"How so?" I ask her as I flip the page of the magazine I'm reading.
"Well when I walked into our dormitory today, a couple of guys were talking near the door. And these are the nerds that pushed me last year AND got me in trouble with Eric. Anyway, they stopped talking and looked at me and was like 'were not going to let you boss us around this year Cori'." Cori says mimicking them. I snort and flip another page.
"I take it you did not like that" I say to her. Cori shakes her head no.
"I sooooo did not and listen to this. I then said 'oh yeah, and what are you going to do about it?' and they said they were going to tell Eric on me" she tells me while slamming her nail polish down for emphasis. I start to laugh. I'm not surprised the nerds said that. They can always count on Eric and I guess you can say that they found Cori's weakness in a way. Just then, there is a knock on our door. I get up still laughing slightly.
"What grade are they in? Kindergarten? And did that not sound like a threat to you? Because it sure sounded like one to me" Cori tells me as I open the door. When I see who is on the other side, my smile fades; fast.
"Hi, Lily. Is Cori here too? I want you guys to meet someone new" Janey say while putting her arm around the person next to her. This 'person' is none other than Felipe's new girlfriend. I'd rather NOT meet her. Cori does a funny walk on her heels to the door so she won't mess up her wet toe nails. When Cori sees who's at the door, she isn't pleased to meet Janey's new friend either.
"Well who is this?" Cori asks slightly irritated. I glance at the new girl. Now that we're face to face, I can get a better description of her. She's about my height and curvy. She's got long wavy dirty blonde hair and slightly tanned skin. She's got really pretty hazel eyes and a sweet smile. She seems nervous. Geez, I wonder why?
"I want you to meet me and Mariah's new neighbor, Jasmine. But you can call her Jaz" Janey says happily. Ah, so her names Jaz. I don't know about Cori, but I'd rather not meet her. Cori looks her up and down with her eyes. She then narrows her eyes before saying
"I'm Cori and this is Lily" I nod my head at them. Jaz's eyes widen.
"Oh, your Lily. I'm really sorr-" the blonde starts to say before Cori cuts her off.
"Look, she doesn't want sympathy; especially from you" Cori says angrily before slamming the door in their faces. She huffs and turns around to face me. I start to grin. I don't know why but that was funny. You should have seen their shocked faces as Cori slammed the door on them. Priceless. I start to laugh.
"Cori, you’re going to pay for that later. You know that right?" I ask her. Janey will no doubt tell Eric what happened. Cori starts to laugh with me.
"Yeah. But on the bright side, I had fun while doing it" she says with an evil smirk. I roll my eyes.
"Plus that Jaz girl deserved it" She says while doing that funny walk on her heels back to her bed to finish painting her toes. Yeah, she did deserve it and a lot more.
"You know Lily; I'm not sure about that girl. We'll have to keep our eyes on her" Cori tells me. I walk back to my bed and put on my zebra striped snuggie. I remember when I bought it with Felipe.............
"So tell me again why you want to buy one of these things?" Felipe asks me while standing behind me as I look at all of the different snuggies. I've wanted one of these things for sooo long and I'm finally been able to get my hands on one. Well.....as soon as I decide which one I want that is. There are so many different designs. Cheetah, monkeys, clouds, tie dye, and a ton more. I don't know how I'll decide. I'm usually very quick on my shopping decisions, but I can't seem to make up my mind on this one. I pick up a box and look at the Snuggie on the box.
"Because Felipe, they're super comfy and warm. And they are ultra mega soft" I tell him as I walk down the aisle to see if there were any more choices. Felipe follows me with his hands on my hips.
"Chica, you can get bath robe for a cheaper price, put it on backwards and it'd be the same thing" Felipe tells me. I stand on my tippy toes to try to reach on the top of the high shelf. Felipe grabs the box for me and hands it to me. I roll my eyes.
"No it's not. It's totally different. These are sooo much cooler" I tell him while deciding that I don't like this snuggie and put back on the shelf. Felipe shrugs.
"Whatever floats your boat, I guess" he says as he watches me. I continue to look through all the snuggies. Okay I am having a really hard time deciding. I know it's supposed to be on how they feel but I also want it to look cute too. Ugh! I groan and start to walk away. I can't decide.
"Where are you going?" Felipe asks me confused as he sees me walk away.
"I can't decide which one I want to buy" I tell him gloomily.
"So you aren't going to buy one?" he asks me. I shake my head no. Felipe rolls his and shakes his head and then turns toward the shelves and looks at all the snuggies. He starts to rummage through them. Felipe grabs one and hands it to me. It's a zebra print one. I LOVE it!
"It’s the last one too, so consider yourself lucky" he tells me with his signature grin. I quickly wrap my arms around him and give him a tight hug.
"Thank you, Felipe" I tell him. Felipe kisses my head.
"Anytime, Muneca. Geez, why do girls make everything harder than it actually is?" Felipe says as he unwraps his arms around me and takes my hand and then leads me down the aisle.
"Girls don't always make everything harder; just sometimes" I say walking beside him.
"Sometimes, huh?" Felipe says while looking down at me.
"Mhmmm" I say back to him with a grin. Felipe chuckles and kisses my nose.
"I love you baby" he tells me.
"I love you too" I tell him back happily.
I sigh. Those were the good old days.
"Anyway, back to the nerds. I'm going to have to step it up and show them not to mess with me......" Cori starts to say before I zone her out. I'm not exactly interested in her nerd fiasco at the moment. I go back to reading my magazine. Well, I'm not really reading it; more like just staring at the pages as I let my mind wander into space. I snuggle into my snuggie and think about all the good times I had with Felipe.

Wednesday afternoon:
They only downside to startling school again is the homework. It's only been 3 days and yet I have piles and piles of homework. Ugh! I don't know how I'm going to ever finish it all. I used to have study time with Felipe. We would both go to the library and sit at a table while we do homework. Usually with me sitting on a sore ass. Whenever I hadn't done my homework or study for a big test, Felipe would spank me and then take me straight to the library to make sure I actually did my work. Even when he finished all of his homework, he would still stay and sit with me and tell me to take my time. The main reason I thought of that is because I am currently in the library right now. I have a big research paper I have to right and I need sources for my paper. Ugh! I hate trying to find books in this library because it's so huge and it takes FOREVER to find anything. I'm on the second floor trying to find books about film making. Sheesh, these shelves are soooo dusty. The librarian (that Cori says is evil) might want to clean up here once and awhile. As I'm looking at the books, I suddenly hear some weird noises. Ummmm, what is that? I walk toward the end of the book shelve and peer around the corner warily. Hey, you never know what may be on the other side. It could be an evil creeper or something. Cori always tells me to get my ninja defense move ready. Whatever that means. Anyways, I peer around the corner to where the noises are coming from. When I make eye contact with the noise my heart stops. It's a miracle I'm not dead. The noise is Felipe and his new girlfriend Sophie. Ugh!!! They are like making out and everything. Did they forget that they are in the library? Sheesh, there are people around. There should be no PDA signs up or something. I quickly turn back around the bookshelf with my heart beating fast. I take a deep breath. Phew! I'm soooo glad they didn't see me because if they did, it would totally be AKWARD!!!! I walk down another aisle to get as far as I can away from Felipe and Sophie. Gross! I continue to look for more books for my research paper. I try to get the image of them kissing out of my mind but it is really hard not to. It still hurts about the breakup with Felipe. Cori says things like this take time to forget. Well no duh, smart one. I was with Felipe for over three years; of course it's going to take time to forget. Cori thinks she is the 'expert' on break ups, considering she hasn't broken up with Eric once. Cori also said that in order to forget about HIM (what she calls Felipe now. She said that he wasn't worthy of us speaking his name) I need to do something to take my mind away from him. I asked her what I could do and she said that she would handle it and let me know. I don't have a very good feeling about that, but what can I do with Cori? NOTHING!!!! Speak of the devil, my cell just beeped and I see that it’s from Cori.
I turn it on vibrate so I can continue to text her in the library.
I know what you can do to get your mind away from HIM - Cori
What!! - Me
A girls night out this Saturday - Cori
and what exactly does that mean - Me
There is this night club called Ice Zero. It's supposed to be really cool. We should go. It'd be totally fun - Cori
Fun at a night club called Ice Zero? Um yeah, I don't think Felipe would like th-....... Wait a minute. I'm not with Felipe anymore so I can do whatever I want. Hmmmm, I actually think Cori is on to something.
That would be fun. Let's meet up at the dining hall in thirty minutes so you can give me the details - Me
Kay - Cori
I'm actually looking forward to hearing Cori's plan this time. Heehee. I think I have enough books for now, so I put them in my bag and head toward the check out area. The only problem with that is I was stopped by someone that I didn't want to see.
"Hey Lily"
Ugh! It's HER again. If you’re wondering who HER is, ill just give you a hint. I just saw her making out with my ex boyfriend a few minutes ago.
"Hi" I say to Sophie through tight lips. She has a lot of nerve doesn't she?
"I just wanted to see if you and Cori wanted to hang out with me, Janey, and Mariah this weekend" she asks me with a hopeful smile. I roll my eyes and take a deep breath. She is sooooo annoying. Ever since Janey introduced Sophie to us, she has really tried to be our friends. Like really tried. She has made us cookies, gave us food coupons, and even offered to do our homework. And let me tell you, that was a really tempting offer for Cori; but Cori remained strong and didn't let her. Also because Janey did tell Eric about her slamming the door on them and he wasn't happy at all. I'm not sure what happened, but I noticed Cori wasn't sitting too comfortably the next day. So Cori thinks its Sophie's fault. Sophie can soooo NOT take hint. It's really starting to tick me off. I don't like her and never will. She took Felipe from me. Hmph!!!
"No, we have plans already" I tell her and try to go around her. The girls’ night out is sounding better and better every minute. Except Sophie stops me by standing in front of me.
"Why don't you like me?" she asks me looking annoyed. I stand up straight and cross my arms together and glare at her.
"Geeze, I wonder why?" I say sarcastically. She doesn't know what she did? She freaking stole my boyfriend.
"What is the supposed to mean. Look I'm sorry that I-" she starts to say before I cut her off.
"I don't need YOU to tell ME anything. Just take a hint and leave me alone" I say to her and successfully walk around her this time. Ugh! Some people aggravate me. I check out my books and leave to go toward the dining hall.
30 Minutes Later:
I just sat down at a table with my sprite. I wonder if Cori will be on time today. She can be really late, especially if she is shopping. Then she may not even show up to meet you. I look toward the entrance to see if Cori is here yet, but then I see someone coming toward me. Wait.....it's Cori. What is she wearing?!?!
"Hey Lily, sorry that I'm fashionably late. I almost ran into Sophie and had to make a detour" Cori says while sitting down and taking off her sun glasses. Cori makes sure to avoid Sophie at all cost. One time she was walking toward Eric and then she saw Sophie and then Cori hid behind a tree. Eric was probably like WTH is up with my girlfriend. On second thought, I bet he doesn't ask himself that anymore. I'm sure he was like what's she gotten herself into this time.
"Ummm, Cori? Why are you wear all black and is that a mustache that your wearing??" I ask her while looking closer to her face. She puts her hand to her face.
"Oh snap, I forgot to take it off. No wonder the nerds were looking at me weirdly. What would I do without you Lily?" Cori says while taking off her fake mustache. She'd probably die if embarrassment. I shake my head and shrug.
"I have no idea. Now what about this club thingy this Saturday?" I ask her getting down to the point. I'm really curious now. Cori sips her coke and gives me small sneaky grin. For once, I'm not worried about that grin.
"Well, there is going to be a really cool club party at Ice Zero this Saturday night. The club is right outside of the university. It will be sooo much fun. And plus, you can do whatever you want and wear whatever you want. Soooooo sounds fun. Doesn't it?" she asks me excitedly. Hmmmm, she does have a point. No Felipe equals no rules.
"What about you? Won't Eric be mad that you’re going to a club?" I ask her skeptically. I may not have a boyfriend anymore, but she does.
"Girl, don't worry about me. This is your night, remember" Cori says. I roll my eyes. If she wants to chance getting into trouble.
"Well if you say so. It does sound like a lot of fun. Let's do it" I tell her. What could happen?
"Yay! Let’s go shopping on Saturday too and then we can come back and change and then go" Cori suggests. Shopping? It sounds even better.
"Yup. Sounds like a plan" I say and start to grab my things to leave. Cori does the same.
"OMG!! I'm sooooo excited! Maybe you'll find someone new there too" Cori says while wiggling her eyebrows. I roll my eyes. I don't think so. I'm not ready to move onto someone else. At all.
"No thanks. I'm just going for some fun" I tell Cori as we continue to walk out of the dining hall.
Unknown POV:
So they're going to Ice Zero, huh? I'll see them there.
Saturday Night:
"I LOVE this dress!!!!" I say happily as I twirl around looking at myself in me and Cori's full length mirror in our dorm. I found it earlier today when me and Cori went shopping. When I saw it, I instantly knew I had to have it. It’s a sparkly purple strapless mini dress. I also put on a black belt to emphasize my waist and black high heels. Okay, I'm not gonna lie. I actually look (in Cori's words) HOT.
"Yeah it's really cute. If you wouldn't have gotten it, I sooooo would have" Cori says coming up behind me and pushes me out of the way to the mirror so she can use it. Geeze, she doesn't have to be pushy.
"You can borrow it whenever" I tell her while grabbing my purse. You know, as I was looking at myself in the mirror I couldn't help myself from thinking about what Felipe would say to this dress. He'd probably HATE it. I remember the last time I wore something like this and he saw it.............
"Hey Cori, I'll meet you by my car in fifteen minutes. I got to go get borrow Felipe's car phone charger from him at his dorm" I tell Cori as I head toward the door.
"Okay" she says as she finishes putting on her makeup. I walk out of our freshman dormitory and head toward Felipe's. As I'm walking, I keep getting these looks from guys. It’s weird. Like they do a double take when they see me walking past. Anyway, I get to Felipe's dorm room. I knock on the door and Felipe opens it with a smile but quickly drops it when he sees me.
"Lily, what are you wearing?!?!" he asks me as he pulls me inside his room and shuts the door. Ummmm, the last time I checked it was clothes.
"A dress. Why?" I ask him. I thought he had perfect vision?
"That doesn't look like a dress to me. It could be s shirt for all I know" he tells me while shaking his head at my dress.
"Felipe, calm down. Don't you think I'm pretty?" I ask him with a pout. He makes it seem like I'm ugly or something. Felipe walks to me and snuggled me in his arms.
"Of course I think your pretty. Your gorgeous in this outfit, but that's the problem" he tells me while kissing my forehead. Wait, I don’t get it. Ugh! Guys are so confusing and they say
girls don’t make sense; YEAH RIGHT!!
“Why?” I ask looking up at Felipe. He looks down at me with me in his arms.
“because guys will do crazy stuff when they see a pretty girl that isn't there’s" Felipe says. Crazy stuff? Puh - Leeze!
"Whatever you say, Felipe" I tell him with a shrug. He can believe what he wants to.
"I'm not kidding, mi Amor. I'm a guy! I can read guys like a book" he tells me.
"Okay, I believe you. Now can you give me your car charger please" I say quickly and trying to change the subject. I really want to quit discussing my outfit choice; especially since I know Felipe doesn't want me wearing it. Felipe sighs and walks over to his desk to retrieve the charger. He walks back and hands it to me.
"So where are you going again?" he asks me. I put the charger in my purse.
"Clubbing with Cori. And it's a club that you guys approve of" I say with an eye roll when I noticed Felipe give me that look he uses just for me. Usually when I'm about to be in trouble.
"Oh really? What's it called?" Felipe asks me next. What was the name of the club again? Cori told me it when she first mentioned we should check it out. Ghost Bar? No. Love fest? Not that either. After Life? Yes, that's the one.
"After Life" I tell Felipe hoping that it really is a club that the guys would approve of. Cori said it was but I shouldn't always trust Cori; actually never.
"Yeah I guess its fine. Just don't go crazy and do something stupid" he tells me with a look of regret. What? Why are you regretting letting me go clubbing to a club you approve of?
“see I told you" I tell him with a hmph. I don't always go to bad places. Felipe rolls his eyes and wraps his arm around my waist while walking me to the door.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever. You’re finally getting smart. Good thing you didn't say Ice Zero or else I would've said not a chance" Felipe says. Ice Zero? Who comes up with these club names?
"Why?" I ask. Felipe kisses my forehead.
"Let’s just say it's a bad place and a lot of bad stuff goes down there. It's too unsafe" he tells me. I raise my eyebrows. Yup, definitely not going there.
"Hmmm, well I didn't so you don't have to worry" I say snuggling into his soft shirt. Felipe nuzzles my hair.
"Sweetie, I always worry about you. You know why" Felipe asks. Don't worry, I already know the answer.
"Yes I know why" I say quickly while blushing slightly. Felipe chuckles softly. He hugs me extra tight before letting me go.
"Be safe to night, Amor" he tells me while opening the door for me. I walk out and turn to look at him.
"I will" I say.
"And will you please put tights on or something?" Felipe asks me while looking at my bare legs. I look down at them too. I sigh.
"Well I guess so. But just for you" I tell him as if it's a huge burden. It's not; I even have a perfect new pair of sparkly black tights to wear.
"Thank you. Have fun and remember, be safe and careful. Love you" he says one last time. I roll my eyes. Sheesh, I don’t get into trouble every second of the day.
"I will. Love you too" I tell Felipe and kiss him on the cheeks before heading back to my dorm room to put on my tights.
See! He was soooooo protective. And now that I'm thinking about it, I wonder what Felipe would say if he heard that I'm going to Ice Zero. He'd probably be super ticked. Wait, why am I even worrying about it? We're not together anymore so I don't have to or worry about not following his order or him getting mad at me. If that's the case, why do I have a strange feeling in my stomach. No, Lily. It will be fine. You just worry too much. I go back to our mirror and push Cori away from it. She's been there long enough. I need to check myself again before we leave to PARTY!!! Fun night, here I come!
 Later that Night at Ice Zero:
OH MY GOSH, I am having a blast!!!!! Ever since me and Cori got here, there has been nonstop dancing action. Once Usher's latest song stopped playing, me and Cori made out way to the bar; don’t worry, no alcohol is served.
"Phew! All this dancing is making me exhausted" Cori says while collapsing in a chair as we wait for our drinks. I look at my cell. Wow!! We've been dancing for three hours straight.
"I know right" I say agreeing with her and sitting in a chair next to her. The music is still playing loudly all around us. Cori gets out her cell and starts texting away; probably to Eric. If I were still with Felipe, I'd probably be texting him now too. He always wanted me to check in with him. Stop thinking about him, Lily. Move on with your life. I look around the club to distract my brain. The dance floor is packed full with dancing bodies. Lady Gaga's new song is now blaring out of the speakers at full blast. As I'm looking around, I can't help but notice a lot of groups of Hispanic guys at this club. They aren't dancing. There just standing around looking cool. They look kinda bad ass and not in a good way either. Almost as if they belong in a gang. I continue to stare at the Hispanic guys. Suddenly a guy with spiked gelled hair and wearing a white bandana makes eye contact with me. My eyes widen when he gives me a slow creepy smile. I get the shivers and quickly turn around in my seat toward the bar. What a creeper!
"Here you go ladies, two club sodas" says the bartender as he places are drinks in front of us. Finally!!! Something to drink. I thought I was going to die of thirst. Cori must have thought the same thing because she is already gulping down her drink.
"I'll take what they're having" a new voice says next to my right. Me and Cori both look to our right and when we see the who the voice belongs to.....well let's just say that we're surprised. Really, really surprised. In fact, Cori's so surprised that she practically spits her drink out.
"Hey guys" Sophie says with a smile. Ugh! What is she doing here? Everywhere I turn, she is somehow always there. I'm sick of it.
"What are YOU doing here???" Cori asks her with disgust. Yeah, I'd like to know the same thing.
"Well I'm getting a drink, that's why I’m at the bar" Sophie tells Cori as if she's dumb. Cori rolls her eyes annoyed.
"I know that! But what are you doing here at the club?" Cori asks her next while looking pissed. Sophie shrugs her shoulders innocently.
"It’s a club. I'm just getting my dance on" Sophie says while doing a little shake with her body. Hmmmm, something’s not right here.
"So you just happened to go to the same club we're going to and you just happen to run into us" I say suspiciously.
"Yeah, really" Cori says agreeing with me and glaring at Sophie. Sophie folds her arms together and then glares back at us.
"Why can't I? It’s a free country. And anyway, why can't I hang out with you guys?" she asks us. Ugh! Why would I want to hang out with her, Miss Boyfriend stealer?
"Don’t you have a boyfriend?" Cori asks her. Yeah that happened to be my ex.
"yeah. So?" Sophie asks us as if she doesn't get the meaning. Cori rolls her eyes and huffs.
"Look, we don't like you" Cori tells her. That's right. You tell her Cori.
"Why?!?! What did I ever do to you??" Sophie asks Cori. I roll my eyes now. Isn't it obvious? I turn away from Sophie and focus on my drink. I hear Cori tell Sophie that she should open her eyes and use her brain to figure it out. I smirk. Geeze, I wonder where Cori heard that from? Sophie huffs and stumps her feet before she leaves us alone.
"What is with some people in this world?" Cori says to me. I have noooooooo idea. Just then, I feel a tap on my shoulder. I turn around and am face to face with that spiked hair guy with the creepy smile. Oh boy. That strange feeling in my stomach has returned. Only this time, I know for a fact that it's a bad feeling. And every time that happens, I always end up getting into trouble.
"Hey beautiful, what's your name?" the creeper guy asks me. His breathe smells awful. He has sooooo been drinking. I look up at him. His eyes are bloodshot and he has big diamond earrings in his ears. His arms are full of tattoos that I can't read. My heart starts beating fast. I have a really, really bad feeling about this guy; especially since he is wearing a bandana around his wrist. That could only mean one thing: he's in a gang. Okay Lily, don't tick him of. You never know what he might do.
"Umm h-hi?" I say unsure of myself. I glance at Cori to see what she thinks of this guy. Of course, she is too busy texting on her phone to notice that I'm in any trouble. Great help she is. NOT!!
"I'm sorry. Where are my manners? I should introduce myself first. I'm Luis and I couldn't help but notice that a pretty lady like you shouldn't be alone; especially in a place like this" Luis says while smiling his wolf like teeth at me. (Gulp) What does he mean by that?
"o-oh. Well that's nice of you to think that but I'm fine, really" I tell him while leaning far away from this smelly Luis guy. I jab my elbow in Cori's stomach. She ow's and gives me an evil glare. Then she notices my new 'friend'.
"Would you like to dance, Ms...... I never caught your name" Luis says while holding out his hand for me to grab. And you never will. Actually I think it's time for me to go now. I start to get off my chair and Cori does the same.
"Oh I'm sorry, I can't. Me and my friend have to leave. Nice meeting you" I tell him before I walk away from him but I don't make it very far before I feel a tight grasp on my arm. I look back to see an angry Luis. Oh snap!
"No one walks away from me. EVER! Come dance with me" he tells me angrily with force. OMG!!! Someone help me. Cori must somehow get my message in her head because she comes up beside me and says
"let her go, you jerk face. She doesn't want to dance with you. So hop off!!" Cori tells him. He just smirks at her and says
"oh yeah? What are you going to do about it?" That probably wasn't the smartest thing to ask Cori.
"This" she says and practically jumps down on his left foot with her high heel. Luis let's go of my arm and grabs a hold of his foot while muttering curse words in Spanish.
"You little bitches, I'm going to kill you" he says with tears rolling down his face. And it looks like he means it literally so that why I grab Cori's arm while she is doing her victory dance and yell
"RUN!!!" We both turn around and high tail it out of the club fast. We ran pretty fast considering that we're wearing high heels and there were a ton of people in our way. Once safely outside, I take a deep breath.
"That was a close one. Thanks for that power jump back there" I say to Cori as we walk to her car. She smiles proudly.
"No prob, he was a jerk anyway. And I did do good, didn't I? Eric would be proud" she says. I'm not so sure about that.
"Your actually going to tell him?" I ask her. Cori rolls her eyes.
"I said would not will be. I'm not mentioning a peep to him. He'll never know what happened......" she says
as we get to her car. I look over at her. Why did she stop like that?
"Oh no!!! My car has those wheel clamps on it" she says as she looks at her front wheel. I go around her car to where she is looking and sure enough, there is a wheel clamp on it. Great, how are we supposed to get back now?
"That sucks for you. Do you know how much it cost to have it removed?" I ask Cori. She groans while putting her face into her hands.
"Yeah, a sore ass, an angry boyfriend, and a lot of money" she says into her hands. Yup, she has it pretty much covered.
"Well on the plus side, you can tell Eric now about that awesome save at the club" I tell her. Cori thinks about what I said.
"Hmmm, give him good news before the bad news. Good idea" she tells me. I know all the tricks in the book.
"Why did you get it clamped anyway? Were you not supposed to park here?" I ask her looking around for signs. I spot one right away. VIP parking only.
"Cori!! This was a VIP parking spot" I say to her. I was wondering why we got a spot so close to the club. Cori shrugs.
"Well I'm a very important person, Lily. I thought I could park there" she tells me. I roll my eyes. Only Cori would think that.
"Forget that. We now have a very big problem. How are we going to get back to the university?" I ask Cori. I don't want to stay here any longer since the creeper is still inside.
"I can drive you" a voice says behind me. I turn around and see Sophie holding her car keys in her hands. Me and Cori both groan. I really think she is a maniac.
"Nope. We'll just walk" Cori says while grabbing my arm and pulling me away. Sophie follows us.
"Why? It's over five miles. It'll take you forever" she tells us. Me and Cori continue to walk on, ignoring her.
"Okay this needs to stop. I don't know why you hate me but this is really getting stupid. Just tell me now so we can clear the air" Sophie tells us. I stop walking and turn around to face her.
"There isn't anything to clear. What's done is done. Okay?" I say to her. She stole my boyfriend. End of story.
"What? No, I don't get it" Sophie says looking confused. Ugh! I don't have time for this.
"Just shut up and leave us alone" I tell her.
"No, I won't" she says back to me while walking up to my face.
"Yeah, you will" I say, inches from her face. My blood is rising.
"Or what?" she asks me while glaring at me. Okay, let me just say right now that I'm not a violent person. At all! But something just snapped inside me. I shove Sophie's shoulder hard enough to make her fall on her butt. She looks up at me shocked as if she couldn't believe I just did that. Neither can I, but too late now. The next thing I know is we are in a full out girl fight. We're on the ground pulling and wrestling each other. Can you believe little ol' ME fighting? Yeah, I'm still shocked too. I hear someone yell call the police and then me and Sophie are separated. I'm breathing hard and I must look a mess. A crowd has gathered around to see what all the commotion is about. Me and Sophie are kept separated until the police arrive. As is it turned out, it was the police guards from the university who knew me and Cori very well. We're taken away to school jail which is on campus. Yay me! NOT. This only happens to me. And I'd like to mention that my BFF is nowhere to be seen. Where the hell did she go???
"So who wants there one phone call first?" the big black guy called Moe sitting behind the desk asks us. Me and Sophie look at each other while we sit in our 'jail cell'. It actually doesn't look like a jail cell. It's a medium sized room with bars for a door. The walls are painted white and there are two beds on each ends of the rooms and a wooden table with chairs in the middle. The room is lit by bright white lights. I don't consider it a classic jail cell. Me and Sophie look at each other coolly before shrugging our shoulders.
"Make up your minds, Girlies" Moe says to us. Moe is really nice. Whenever me and Cori are caught doing one of our plans around campus, Moe always laughs and says we never learn. He also knows that our boyfriends don't like it when we're in trouble. I sigh and stand up from my bed.
"I guess I'll go" I say and wait for him to open the cell. I head for the corner where the phone is and pick it up but then I suddenly stop. Whoa, this is different. Normally I am panicking and nervous about my phone call because I usually call Felipe. But this time is different because I'm not with Felipe anymore. Wow! This is too weird. Who should I call? Oh I know. How about my M.I.A best friend? I call Cori and she picks up on the first ring.
"Thanks a lot Cori" I say sarcastically into the phone. I hear her heels while she is walking wherever she is.
"I'm sorry about that but I had a plan. Listen, if I was caught fighting too, we'd both be in there right now. But since I wasn't caught, I can come and bail you out which is what I'm going to do in about five minutes" Cori tells me. Hmmm, she has a good point.
"Ugh! Well where are you?" I ask her.
"I'm outside the security station" she tells me.
"What!! Your here? Well come inside and get me out of here" I tell her impatiently.
"Chill. I'll come inside in five minutes like I said earlier in case you weren't listening. I don't want to make it seem obvious" Cori says. I sigh.
"How’d you get over here anyway?" I ask her since her car is over by the club.
"I hitched a ride with one of the security guards" she says. I snort. She would.
"Fine, but you better come and get me out in five minutes Cori" I tell her.
"Don’t worry, girl. I got your back" Cori says. Well she better. I walk back into the 'cell' and sit down on one of the wooden chairs while Sophie stands up and leaves for her one phone call. I sigh. Why me?
 Felipe's POV:
I can't believe this. I really can't believe this. It's been a whole week since Lily broke up with me and I am a total mess. I have no idea what went wrong between us. We were perfectly fine and then all of the sudden she calls me and says she wants to break up. Ever since then, I can't eat, sleep, or thing of anything besides Lily. I've tried talking to her but she won't listen. I feel like a part is missing from me. I know I sound like a depressed Romeo but that's how I feel. It sucks. I'm currently sitting at my desk in my dorm with my head in my arms.
"Cheer up, dude. I'm sure it'll work out" Orlando says while lying on my bed and throwing a soccer ball in the air and catching it. I glare at him.
"Whatever. You wouldn't understand. You still have a girlfriend" I say to him. He catches the ball and sits up on my bed.
"No I completely understand. When my ex, ex, ex girlfriend Becky broke up with me, my heart just about broke in half. I didn't know how I was going to survive after that. The world wasn't complete after that" Orlando tells me. I roll my eyes.
"You are either a drama queen or you exaggerate" I tell him. He throws a pillow at me.
"I'm being serious here. Don't mess it up. I’m just saying that I really thought Becky was the one but it turns out she wasn't" he says. So what?
"And?" I ask him not getting his point.
"And maybe Lily isn't the one" Orlando says. Now I'm the one who throws the pillow at him.
"No, Lily was the one. I know for a fact" I tell him. I just wish she'd see that too.
"Alright, fine. Don't listen to your big brother" Orlando says raising his hands in the air and lying back down on my bed. I snort and roll my eyes.
"By three minutes" I remind him.
"I’m still older" he says with a grin. I go back to thinking about how my life sucks when Orlando's cell rings.
"Hello.......I'm just hanging out with Felipe. Why?........no I don't mind leaving, where are you?.........kinda at the Security center? How can you kinda be at the security center and what did you do this time?........(sigh) alright, I'm coming......yeah, yeah, yeah. Love you. Bye" he says and then he stands up and starts to make his way for the door. That conversation seems oddly familiar. I wonder why? Haha, I'm joking. I know exactly why.
"Who was that?" I ask him. Orlando groans.
"My girlfriend. Come with me to sort out whatever the hell happened" he says to me. I sigh and stand up. I have nothing better to do. So why not?
Lily's POV:
Sophie comes back in after her phone call and joins me at the table. She sighs.
"Why me?" she says under her breath. That's funny. I said the same exact thing. Ugh! Cori better be here. Just when I'm thinking that, I hear Cori's heels coming.
"Hey Moe" she says to him.
"What you up to, girl? You haven't been in here for awhile" Moe says to Cori.
"Well school just started. And anyway, I've decided to be good now" she tells him.
"Uh huh" Moe says clearly not believing her. He's not the only one.
"It’s true! I don't know why no one believes me" Cori says with a huff.
"then why are you here?" he asks her.
"To get Lily out. Duh!" she tells Moe. Yeah she is, so hurry up with that.
"That’s very nice of you, but I think I'll just wait for her boyfriend to come get her" Moe says to Cori. Obviously he didn’t get the memo that we're no longer together.
"Oh there not together anymore" Cori tells him.
"Mhmmm. You really expect me to believe that?" he asks her. Ugh! He probably thinks it's one of our plans. Actually it’s not a bad idea. Why haven't we used it before?
"What do you mean? Of course it's true" Cori tries to make him believe her. Oh wait, maybe because nobody would believe us. Cori continues to convince Moe that me and Felipe are no longer together. I sigh. This could take awhile.
"You probably won't answer me, but why did you break up with Felipe?" Sophie asks hesitantly. Fine, I'll humor her.
"Because he cheated on me" I tell her.
"Really? I've met Felipe and he doesn't seem the type to cheat on someone. And the word around the street is that he is crazy about you" Sophie says. My eyes widen. Something isn't right here.
"Wait a minute. Aren't you with Felipe now?" I ask her. Because I know for a fact that she has kissed him.
"What are you talking about? Why would I be with Felipe? I have my own boyfriend" she tells me. Huh? I have another bad feeling in my stomach.
"When did you meet Felipe?" I ask her next.
"A week ago" Sophie tells me. Bad feeling grows bigger.
"Then who are you dating?" I ask.
"Orlando, Felipe's twin brother" she tells me. WHAT!?!?! Did I hear her correctly?
"twi-" I start to say before I hear Cori say
"OH MY GOD!!!" I then hear Cori come running to the door.
"Lily come quick. Felipe has a-" she starts to say.
"A twin brother" I say finishing her sentence.
"Yeah and they're id-" she starts to say before I cut her off again.
"Identical" I put my face in my hands and groan. It's not fair. This stuff only happens to me. I look over at Sophie.
"You can go first" I say to her.
"Ummm no thanks. You can go" she tells me. Yeah right. I'm too embarrassed. I know exactly what happened.
"Why not? Your boyfriends here" I tell her. She shakes her head no.
"I don't exactly want to go see him at the moment" she says slouching in her chair. Okay, she's being weird. I stand up and walk to Cori who is still standing at the door.
"Cori, I've made a HUGE mistake. Sophie is dating Felipe's twin brother, Orlando. Make the connection?" I ask her. Cori's eyes widen.
"Geeze Lily, you didn't have to jump to conclusions" Cori tells me. Thanks for moral support.
"Whatever. You’re the one who was like 'he isn't worth it, Lily. Blah, blah, blah'" I say to Cori.
"Fine, so I was fooled too. But what are you going to do now?" she asks me. Ugh! Hopefully, die of embarrassment.
"I don't know yet, but go out there and try to save my butt a little" I say to Cori. She nods her head.
"Kay. Be right back" she says and walks back out to the office area.
Cori's POV:
I walk out into the office area where Moe and Felipe and his twin are. They really do look alike. Maybe that's because they are identical twins. Nice one, Cori.
"So you and Lily really did break up?" Moe asks Felipe as if he couldn't believe it. You’re not the only one. No one could.
"See! I told you they did" I say to Moe. I lean against his desk.
"Hey Cori" Felipe says to me. I smile at him. (Sigh) I know for a fact that Lily and Felipe will be back together by tomorrow.
"Hi Felipe" I say back to him. I was almost tempted to say 'I know something that you don't know'. But then I thought that I know a ton of stuff that he doesn't know and I don't think Lily wants me sharing just yet.
"So what happened?" Felipe's look alike named Orlando asks Moe. I have to save Lily's ass.
"Oh don't worry, Moe. I got this" I quickly tell him and clear my throat. Story time. I loved story time in preschool. This brings back good memories. Heehee.
"Well me and Lily decided to have some fun tonight, so we decided to go to a club" I start to before I was rudely interrupted.
"Tell them which club it was" Moe says to me. I was avoiding the name for reason.
"Ice Zero" I mumble while not looking at either Felipe or his brother in the eyes.
" Ice Zero?!?!" Isn’t that where that gang hangs out?" his brother Orlando asks Felipe not looking happy either.
"Yeah, it is" he answers. Hmph! Can we just get on with story time?
"Did Eric know that you went to that club? Probably not, huh?" Felipe asks me. Why does everybody just assume things about me? 'Cori, you didn't do your homework, did you?', 'Cori, let me guess. You didn't do the laundry yet', or 'I bet Eric doesn't know about this'. Sheesh, it's really getting annoying.
"Not really, but he'll find out sooner or later" I say to Felipe. Actually it's more like Eric will find out tomorrow when he has to drive me to get my car. I'm really, really not looking forward to that. Felipe rolls his eyes.
"Anyway, as I was saying before, me and Lily went to a club where we danced forever and had a lot of fun. Until......" I drift off my sentence. What? I like doing special effects.
"Until what?" Orlando asks impatiently.
"Until this really creepy guy started hitting on Lily. I think he was high and drunk and he looked horrible. And not to mention that ugly bandana he was wearing. Totally messed up his outfit" I say with disgust as I think about that Luis. Felipe looks even more mad now.
"Well Lily politely declined his invitation to dance and tried to get away but Mr. High guy wasn't happy about that so he grabbed Lily's arm and wouldn't let go. He was acting mean, so I had to think fast. I did this awesome ninja move where I jump in the air and do the splits and-" I say before I'm interrupted again.
"Okay Cori, can you please skip all the dramatics and get on with the story?" Felipe asks me. I sigh. People don't appreciate story time like they used too.
Okay okay. So I jump in the air and land down hard on this guy’s foot with my high heel. He instantly let's go of Lily and grabs his foot and then starts cursing us and saying he was going to kill us. That when we got out of there. Then me and Lily aren't able to find a way back home until-" I say before I'm interrupted AGAIN. Did their parents not teach them manners or something?
"Wait, why couldn't you find a way back here?" Orlando asks. Ugh! These two are full of questions, aren't they?
"Her car got the boot" Moe tells them. I roll my eyes.
"Ohhhhhh, I guess Eric will find out about it sooner than later" Felipe says.
"Unfortunately" I say while glaring at Moe. Keep your big mouth shut.
"Let me stop there before continuing and start another story. But this one is going to be about Felipe and Lily. You’re just going to laugh when you hear it. Okay so Lily thought that Orlando was Felipe and when she saw them kissing, she thought that Felipe was cheating on her. That's pretty funny, right?" I say laughing slightly. Why aren't they laughing?
"That’s not funny, girl" Moe tells me. I glare at him again. He is sooooo not helping. Felipe and Orlando look at each other before looking back at me.
"I guess that kind of makes sense" Felipe says. Yes!!! He gets it.
"So why are they in jail?" Orlando asks me.
"Yeah and why aren't you in there with them?" Felipe asks me next. Well I feel a little insulted. Is it that hard to believe that I'm not on jail for once?
"Because I'm working on being good and getting into trouble less" I tell Felipe proudly.
"That isn't going to last long" he says. Moe nods his head in agreement.
I glare at him this time.
"Hey now. Look who's in jail and who isn't?" I ask him.
"Touché" Felipe says. That's right, I'm not a bad as you may think.
"anyway, since me and Lily thought she was dating Felipe, we never have liked her so tonight Lily and her got into a fight which turned physical and someone called the police and that is why they are sitting in a jail cell" I say as I finally finish my story. There were too many interruptions.
"Wow! That was some story" Orlando says impressed. I nod my head.
"Oh I know" I tell them. Duh, it's because I told it. Moe then stands up and goes to get Sophie out of the cell. She follows him but looks kind of nervous when she walks to Orlando. I would be too. He does not look happy. She signs some paper work and then she is free to go. While this is happening, I go cheek on Lily.
"Nice story" she tells me as she walks up to the door. What? No thank you.
"Hey now. Felipe is in a better mood now so ha!" I say to her. Lily shrugs her shoulders.
"I'm not sure about that but thanks anyway" she says. I feel my phone vibrate in my purse.
Hey one of my friends could have sworn that he saw you at Ice Zero. Care to explain? - Eric
Not really - Cori I know Eric wasn’t really asking.
Just get to my room NOW - Eric
"ugh! I gotta go. Someone blabbed their mouth around Eric. Why can't people keep their mouths shut, I tell you?" I ask Lily. The world would be a much better place. She shrugs her shoulders.
"Because life isn't that easy" she tells me. Ain't that the truth.

 
Lily's POV:
After Cori leaves, I walk back to the wooden table and sit down. There are sooooo many things running through my head right now. Like Felipe wasn't cheating on me and how I was so stupid. But I really thought that Felipe's brother was him. Now what's gonna happen? I guess I should talk to Felipe, but I'm soooooo embarrassed. Moe opens up the cell door for me.
"You’re free to go, Miss Lily" Moe tells me. Ugh! I know this may sound surprising, but I really wish I could stay here. Shocker, right?
"Ummmmm. I think I'd rather stay for a little while longer. Just to, you know. Take in the environment since this will be the last time I will ever be here" I say, making up an excuse. Hopefully this will be the last time I'm here; but you know that may not be the case. Moe raises his eyebrows.
"She says she'd rather stay in there and take in the environment. I'd say she's crazy" Moe tells someone. Gee, thanks Moe. I have a feeling that someone is Felipe.
"Let me talk to her" I hear Felipe before seeing him stand at the cell door where Moe was a few seconds ago. I instantly look down. Did I mention that I'm really, really embarrassed? Felipe walks over towards the table and sits down across from me. I have found a sudden interest of the blue tiled floor. I wonder why they chose that color of all colors.
"So this is what a jail cell looks like. You know, I always imagined it differently" Felipe says lightly while looking around. I can't help from grinning to myself.
"Yeah, that's what I thought too" I say back to him. I finally look up at Felipe. I thought he'd look mad but he wasn't. Felipe was smiling at me, instead.
"Hey love" he tells me. I don't know if I can do this.
"Hi" I say quickly and look down again while blushing like crazy.
"Lily, please look at me. I really want to talk to you and I can't if you’re so fascinated in the floor, now can I?" he asks me gently. I shake my head no and slowly look up into his brown eyes.
"That’s better. So I bet you have a lot of questions, huh?" Felipe asks me next. Yeah, like how the hell do you have a twin brother and why didn't you tell me. I nod my head.
"How about I tell you my story and then you tell me yours" Felipe suggests.
"Okay" I say. Now let's get to the bottom of this twin business.
"Well let me just say that I just found out about my twin about a month ago. So it's not like I've always known and haven't told you. You know how my mom separated from my real dad when I was born right? Apparently, she had twins and my dad took my brother and my mom kept me. My dad didn't think it was fair that my mom would keep both sons, so that’s why he took my brother. They lived across the country. Well my mom thought that she'd never have to hear from them again but she was wrong. During the summer, the dad I've never met sent her a letter in the mail saying that he wants my twin brother and me to meet. How he got our address is beyond me. Anyway, she sat down with me and finally told me the truth. I was completely shocked. So I met Orlando about a month ago for the first time. We pretty much bonded right from the start. I guess it's a twin thing" Felipe tells me with a shrug. Wow!! That's all I can say. It’s like the parent trap movie. But I have some questions now.
"So why did your mom hide this from you?" I ask him curiously.
"Because she said that she hated my dad and didn't want anything to do with him" he tells me. Oh. Nasty ex problems.
"Sooooo what's Orlando doing here?" I ask Felipe next. What is he doing here?
"He transferred from a different college with his girlfriend Sophie" he says. Yeah, I already knew about his girlfriend.
"Well why didn't you tell me about him sooner?" I ask Felipe. It would have saved me from a lot of trouble.
"I wanted to surprise you in person" Felipe tells me. Aww that’s sweet, but the only problem with that is that I always get in trouble with surprises.
"I don't do very well with surprises" I say with a grimace. Felipe grins.
"Yeah, I kinda got that" he says with a chuckle. Only me.
"So tell me your story now" Felipe says.
"Well I was heading over to your dorm last Saturday when I saw Orlando kissing Sophie but thought it was you. I panicked and thought you were cheating on me. So that's why I broke up with you" I tell him quickly. Phew! Glad that's over. Felipe looks amused.
"Sweetie, do you always have go jump to conclusions?" He asks me. Well I don't mean to.
"You would have to if you saw me kissing a guy" I say in my defense.
“I wouldn't have without talking to you first" Felipe tells me. Ugh! Does he always have to sound reasonable?
"I'm really, really sorry Felipe. I shouldn't have jumped to conclusions and broken up with you" I tell him. I hope he forgives me. Felipe takes my hands in his and kisses them each.
"Of course I forgive you, Mi Amor. But as long as we get back together, though" he says.
"We can get back together" I say with a happy smile. Felipe smiles back at me. Yay!!! We're together again.
"So my story sounded a lot like the parent trap huh?" Felipe asks me. Hey, I was thinking the same thing. It must be that couple’s empathy thing that Cori always talks about.
"Definitely" I say in agreement.
"So are you finally ready to get out of here because I don't think you need to take in anymore of the environment" Felipe says. Oh yeah, I forgot that I was supposed to be doing that. Oh well.
"No, I'm ready. Let's go" I tell Felipe. Felipe stands up and helps me up also before bringing me into his safe, strong arms for a tight hug. I've really missed his hugs. I'm sooooooo glad we're back together again. After we've finished hugging, Felipe steps back and looks down at my dress. Uh oh, he doesn't look happy; at all. I think the happy moments gone and the your about to get your butt kicked moment is here.
"Baby, let's go back to my dorm and discuss some things, okay?" Felipe asks. He doesn't give me time to answer because he is already pulling me toward the door. Oh yeah, the about to get your butt kicked moment is definitely here but for once I'm actually really, really glad that it’s here........well okay. I'm not that glad but I think you know what I mean.

It feels just like old times; literally. And by that, I mean with Felipe standing in front of me looking mad while I'm sitting on his bed trying to look sorry.
It didn't take long to get back into our usual routine.
"So would you like to explain to me what happened tonight?" Felipe asks me. I thought Cori took care of that?
"Didn’t you get all that info from Cori?" I ask him. Yeah, of course he did. He was there.
"I want to hear your side of the story" Felipe says sitting down next to me on the bed. Well at least he isn't glaring and acting mad at me. Yet. I sigh.
"Me and Cori decided to go to a night club as a girl’s night out. We were there for a while me and Cori decided to go get something to drink at the bar. And no we didn't get any alcohol. Anyway, Sophie came and tried to talk to us. Me and Cori didn't like her because we thought she was going out with you. So me and Cori told her to go away and she eventually did. But then, a creepy guy tried to talk to me. I think he was high and drunk and he was wearing a bandana. I walked away from him but he followed me. He grabbed my arm but Cori stepped on his foot with her heel and he let go. But the creepy guy was really, really mad and said he was going to kill us. So me and Cori ran out to her car but when we got there, her car had a wheel clamped on it. Sophie then came up behind us and offered us ride a ride back here but we refused but again as wouldn't leave us alone so I confronted her and we ended up getting into a fight and taken down to the security station" I tell Felipe quickly while looking down. I could feel his dark brown eyes on me like lasers.
"That’s some story" He tells me. I nod my head. It definitely is. It could probably be a best seller.
"Are you sorry for fighting Sophie?" Felipe asks me. Umm, yeah. Now that I know she isn't dating him anymore.
"Really sorry" I say to Felipe while finally looking up at him. Phew! He doesn't look mad. Maybe he'll go easy on me since he knows the circumstances. Felipe puts his arm around me and kisses my cheek.
"So you know that I'm gonna spank you right?" he asks me gently. Oh yes. I didn't doubt that for a second. I nod my head.
"Yes sir" I say gloomy. He kisses me again before taking my hand and guiding me over his lap.
"Good. So let's get this over with and behind us" Felipe says as he lifts my dress up and pulls my panties down.
"By the way, what’s with the dress? You know how I feel about you wearing stuff like this" Felipe says disapprovingly while placing his hand on my butt. I know, he hates it. But it's such a cute dress. All purple and sparkly.
"Well I thought since we weren't together anymore that it wouldn't matter if I wore it" I tell him trying to save myself here.
"Well you thought wrong" he says and then raises his hand from my butt and brings it down hard on my lower right cheek.

(Smack)
Ow! That one hurt a ton and it was only the first smack. Who was I kidding? Felipe is soooo NOT going to go easy on me.
(Smack) (Smack) (Smack) (Smack)
He continues to alternate between different spots on my butt cheeks. I start to wiggle around slightly.
"so you (smack) got into (smack) a fight, (smack) went to (smack) a dangerous (smack) night club (smack) after I (smack) told you (smack) not to (smack) go there, (smack) and wore (smack) and extremely (smack) revealing dress. (Smack) Am I (smack) right so (smack) far (smack) (smack)?" Felipe asks me while making my butt redder by the minute. I'm really wiggling now and tears are starting to run down my face. Felipe holds onto my waist tighter, preventing me from moving.
"Owww yes ahh sir owwwie" I cry out to him. Is his hand made out of steel or something? It sure feels that way.
"And (smack) you (smack) also (smack) broke (smack) up (smack) with (smack) me (smack) without (smack) talking (smack) to (smack) me (smack) first (smack) (smack) (smack)" he adds while spanking me harder. I kick my legs slightly.
"I knowwww owwwie I'm ahh really, really ah sorrrry owwww" I sob out. Will I ever learn not to jump to conclusions? Probably not. That sucks for my butt. Felipe stops spanking me.
"I can see how you could think I was cheating on you because of my twin brother, but you should have come and talked to me instead of rushing to conclusions. Kay, mi Amor?" he asks while rubbing my butt even though it's not helping any. I nod my head as I continue to sob.
"So let's finish this up. Remember what I said I was going to do if you went to jail again?" Felipe asks me next. I rack my brain for the answer. Hmmmm, what did he say? Oh SNAP! I remember now loud and clear. How could I forget that? I nod my head again.
"What’d I say?" he asks me while leaning over and grabbing something. I have a feeling I know what it is; unfortunately.
"You said you would paddle me with my wooden hairbrush fifty times" I tell him shakily. Ugh! Can someone please kill me now!
"Mhmmmm" Felipe confirms while tapping the cool brush to my warm butt.
"Do you think you deserve it?" he asks me. Hey! That's such a trick question. No fair!
"Yeah, I guess so" I tell him even more gloomily. Why me!?!
"Well lucky for you I don't. Your getting half. And don't think I'm going soft because if you get yourself in jail again, I won't be so nice next time" Felipe warns me. I let out a small sigh of relief. Thank you sooooo much, Felipe. But now I got to remember not to ever get myself in jail again. That'd gonna take some work.
"Twenty five and then I'm done. I want you to count them" Felipe tells me. I sniff and nod my head while bracing myself.
(SMACK)
The first smack of the paddle land on my left sit spot. I hate sit spots.
"One" I cry.
(SMACK)
"two" I cry out again and continue to do so all the way to twenty five. The last five were really hard too. I hate the hairbrush too. As soon as it was over, Felipe puts down the brush and gently pulls my panties up over my inflamed butt. He helps me stand up and gently sits me down on his lap. Felipe puts his strong arms around me and rocks me as I continue to cry it out. He kisses my head and holds me tight. Once I've stopped crying, I look up at Felipe with sniffles and hiccups.
"(Sniff) I really am sorry (sniff)" I say to him. He smiles at me and kisses my nose.
"I know you are and I forgave you Amor" he tells me. I smile back at him happily. I'm soooooooo glad we got back together.
"I love you with my whole heart. Your
mi Vida. Mi Alma. Tu eras mi todo. And don't you ever forget that" Felipe tells me while kissing my nose again. My eyes light up. He told me that when I was hiding in my room last week. Felipe really means that. Duh! I should have never have doubted him. We continue to sit with me in his lap and Felipe's arms around me knowing that we'll never lose our love for each other.
