Chapter two

“Happy Birthday to you, happy Birthday to you,” shouted everyone energetically “Happy Birthday Liana, happy Birthday to you!” and she blew out the candles on her pink frosted cake. “O M G! This is sooo cool, Liana!” said Hannah, one of Lianas friends.
“And I love the decorations!!!!” shouted Alisha aloud.
“So, here’s your present” I handed her a pink gift-wrapped silver bracelet, with a pink charm since she loves the colour pink.
“Oh, Nat. ILY!!!!!!!! I love this bracelet; it’s so cool!” she squealed, embracing me
“Like, totally” said Alisha
“Like, OMG, so cute!” said Hannah
“I’m gonna get some cake, see you guys in a sec.” I left before they started talking about Lianas new fluffy pink lounge chair for the billionth time.
“So you’re friends with Liana? I thought you weren’t the type of girl to suss over if their clothes aren’t pink enough.” And here comes Evan, with the judgement on my new friend group.
“Aren’t I allowed to extend my knowledge of the world by knowing if pink goes with pink?” I know it seems like I’m being mean, but these girls came up to me on my first day and thought we clicked, so I couldn’t leave, that would have been rude.
“Oh, so you’re an under-cover agent now?” he laughs “Nah, but seriously. Shouldn’t you be hanging out with people who love Chi-“
“Japan”
“Who love Japan?”
“Easier said than done.”
“Hey, why don’t your friend group and my friend group start hanging out?” he suggested, “So you can take a break of pink”
“Sure! I’ll see if the girls mind. See ya later!” Whoo-hoo!!! Hanging out with Evan! Hanging out with the Evan! Oh god. How will the girls react to it? They’ll be all like “OMG!!!!! Match making time. You go with him, and Hannah goes with him blah blah blah.” Oh well. I’ll try anyway.
“So, anyway, I was all like – Nat, who was that luscious guy who you were talking to?” Oh, Alisha. You like talking, but why speak so much?
“Oh…uah…him? He’s an old friend” I know I’m blushing. Urgh.
“An old boy-friend” giggled Liana. Now I wish I had a gun.
“OMG!!!!!!!!! So, you still like him? Totally LMAO!!!!!!” Hannah, please stop using msn talk
“No, no. He asked-“
“OMG he didn’t!? What did you say?”
“He didn’t ask me to go out. He asked if you want our friend groups to mesh, like, hang out together and stuff”
“That is SUCH a great idea, Nat! When term starts, we’ll be the coolest people in school!!!” then Liana gave me a hug and we all had a group hug.
“So, who are his friends?” asked Alisha
Right now I look like them. My cheeks are turning pink.
