Change Of Life by Me :) (book series to read TXT) 📕

to be in and he warned me about it just a few days before yet I didn't listen and here I am, on the floor, heart-broken.

He picks me up and brings me to a room, I think it was his room. I sit on his bed, head in my hands and tears in my eyes. I just saw my best friend making out with my ex-boyfriend whom she knows that I have never gotten over.

Chapter 3: I bullshitted with a nervous laugh at the end of my sentence

He closes the door behind him to block out the blasting music. He sits down next to me and wraps an arm around my shoulder as I lean into him and quietly let the tears run down my face.

“Are you gonna rape me now?” I ask him jokingly after a while.

“Really? I can do that?” he said like a little kid and I let out a small laugh. I looked up at him and he smiled. “Let me take you home.” he says.

“But this is your party, you can't just leave. These crazy drunk high-schoolers could burn your house down within 10 seconds.” I told him with my voice slightly unstable from my recent crying.

“Exactly, it's my party. I can do whatever the hell I want and I am taking you home. Now.” he says and gets off the bed. He holds out his hand for me to take and I look at it then up at his face then back down to his hand and I take it.

On the way to his car, we passed by one of his friends who seemed to be pretty sober so he told him to watch over his house while he took me home. It was nearly midnight once I actually got home. Cooper walked me to my doorstep for some reason and took me all the way upstairs to my bedroom. He didn't even ask if he could come into the house. I could barely walk though, I think I needed him there and he knew it.

Mom wasn't home, she has been very absent lately. She has also been very cheery, it's like she's on her period with all the mood swings she's been getting. And I also realised that she's been dressing up and buying new clothes and perfumes and shoes. She also leaves them room every time I walk in and find her on the phone. So, she probably just got a new boyfriend, I'm not surprised. It's been nearly a year since her last one.

Cooper guided me to my bed and let me lay down there. He left the room and came back with a big glass of water.

“Kayla, I need you to drink this whole cup, okay?” he says and I mutter in response. I roll over and stick my head into my big fluffy pillow. He takes off my heels and places them on the floor. “I need to go home before my house burns down.” he says, “I'm gonna go now.” he says again but he gets no response. “Okay.” he says and I hear the door shut and his car leave the driveway a few seconds afterwards. I take a sip of the water and let ;y body shut down.

I woke up to the sun burning my eyes. My curtains were open for some reason. I looked down at myself and realised I was wearing a dress. And then, I remembered. I remembered everything. From Cooper warning me, to Jessie dragging me to a party, to being heart-broken, and ending with Cooper taking me home. I groaned as I got out of bed and walked over to the bathroom.

My eyes were all puffy from crying as well as mascara and eyeliner all over my face. My hair was all over the place, full of knots and my dress was all wrinkled. I stripped out of the dress and jumped into the shower. I felt the warm water hit my bare skin and stream down my body. I scrubbed my face to remove the make up from last night. Then I saw it. I saw it all over again. Tears streamed down my face but it blended with the water of the shower. I stood there sobbing.

How could my best friend betray me like that? How could she do such a thing without telling me? How could she even look at me without the slightest bit of guilt in her eyes? How could she talk to me everyday without spitting it out? How could she break the number one girl code?

I turned off the water and got out of the shower. I wrapped a towel around myself and walked into my bedroom. I clothed myself with my hair let loose and dripping wet. I sat on the floor with my back against my bed frame and closed my eyes. I put my knees up to my chest and put my head in my hands. A few more tears slid down my cheeks and I wiped them away immediately. I searched around for my phone and once I found it, I realised that I had 15 new messages and 3 missed calls, all from Jessica. I decided to shut my phone off.

I wiped off my cheeks of the still present tears and walked down to the kitchen. My mom was already there sitting at the counter working on some paperwork.

“Hey there,” she says with a friendly voice. She looks up at me and I can see the worry in her eyes, “Hey, what's wrong? Have you been crying?”

“Why would you say that? I ask nervously not wanting to tell her about last night.

“Well, you're eyes are all puffy and red.” she states.

“Oh, that's just because I got some shampoo in my eyes and I started rubbing at them and they ended up like this.” I bullshitted with a nervous laugh at the end of my sentence.

“Okay, honey. If you say so. Just be careful next time.” she says suspiciously.

“Don't worry, I will.” I reply, “Do you want me to make you some eggs?” I ask trying to change the subject.

“No, I just got called in for new evidence on a big case that I'm working on. But we're still on for tonight, dinner?” she says cleaning up her papers.

“Yeah, of course.” I say and she smiles, gives me a peck on my forehead and runs upstairs to get changed for work. I decide to eat a big bowl of cereal and watch some Teen Wolf to get my mind off of everything. I mean, oh god, those guys could make you forget how to talk. Cody Christian, Dylan Sprayberry, Dylan O'Brien, ugh! Too much to handle!

Chapter 4: “Wait a second. We?” I asked slightly annoyed. “Well, about that...”

 

Before I knew it, it was nearly 6pm and Mom just got home.

“Kayla? I'm home!” she yelled from downstairs.

“I'm up here!” I yelled back and she was standing in front of my room in no time. “What time is our reservations for tonight at?” I asked.

“It's at 8:45, is that okay?” she says.

“Yeah, it's fine. I just need to start getting ready, like, now.” I say stressfully. I run into my closet and pick out an outfit for tonight’s event. Mom said it was a really fancy and expensive place so I had to dress appropriately. I blast some music and go back to my closet. I changed my panties according to the dress I was going to wear which guides me to my navy blue laced one. I slip it on and sit at my vanity as I moisturise my arms and legs. I go back to my dresser and grab my black strapless bra and snatch it on.

I went over to my closet and slipped into my dress. It was navy blue laced, reached just above my knees. It had one long sleeve, other side, completely sleeveless, completely strapless. The whole bottom half was loose like an average skirt, if someone were to lay under me, they would see my panties.

I sat back down at my vanity and started doing hair. I brushed through it and then sprayed some heat resistant product before I curled my naturally dirty blond hair. After I finished, I added some hairspray so it'd last longer. Then I started on my make up.

I started off with my eyeliner, a very thin line with a long wing at the end. Then mascara, had to be perfect so that my eyelashes where no longer blond but black. Then a light pink lipstick to finish it off, start off with the lipliner that is close to my actual lip color. The lipliner must be perfect aligned or it ruins everything. Then the lipstick, must be put on within the lipliner borders. And then my make up is set.

I grab a pair of silver hoop earrings and slip them in. I also put in a few silver bracelets and a silver necklace with a blue diamond in the center of it. I fluff my hair up a bit and go back into my closet. I grab a pair of heels that are also navy blue and have a little silver buckle on the top. I sit on my bed and slip them on. I go back into my closet and look for a matching purse and I find a navy blue purse with a big silver chain holding it together and for support on your shoulder. I grab my phone and take a mirror selfie of my navy blue and silver outfit. I put it on my snapchat story and have a little star kind of emoji on the top corner.

I then grabbed the stuff I need to transfer from one purse to the other and once I was done it was about 8:25pm. “Mom!” I yelled.

“Yes, darling?” she yelled back.

“What time do we have to leave at?” I yelled.

“In about 5 minutes. Are you ready?” she asks.

“Yeah!” I answered and opened up Instasize. I edited the mirror selfie I just took and uploaded it on Instagram with the caption “Going out w/ my madre #apparentlyshehassomebignews”. Once I finished, it was time to go. I double checked myself in the mirror and went downstairs. My mom was still in her room getting ready so I stood in front of the stairwell waiting for her. I heard her door open and could hear the click of her shoes as she walked down the stairs. She was beautiful. Even more flawless then
