Chapter 13

Hello:D I had such a great day with my friend, and she read my blog! She is the one who wrote the first paragraph in the first chapter, so I decided to put her name somewhere in this chapter, as one of the characters. She put me in such a writing mood!:) I hope everyone is liking the way the story is turning out :) x

   enjoy!

   I was just standing there, my full lips forming a big O. My brain was in total shock, trying to come up with something to say. I gained the courage to look up, seeing Yousef's dark eyes staring at me, waiting for me to say something. He lightly held my hand in his, waiting for me to respond. I could hear the faint noise of the music from the house, and the salty waves crashing on the shore. ''I love you, I really, really do, Sara. I have since I first laid eyes on you when we were just four years old. You're so special to me, and I love everything about you. And it's okay if you don't feel the same. Maybe you just look at me as a friend, a brother. It's okay. I'll always be there for you, because I could never, ever leave you.'' I looked at him, a smile forming on my lips.


             ''Sara? Say something!'' He said nervously. ''Yousef, I love you too.'' I said, seeing his brown eyes light up. ''Really?'' He said, grinning. I've never actually seen him so happy. ''Of course I do, you idiot!'' I said with a delighted look on my face. It felt as if all the puzzle pieces in my life have been put together, revealing a perfect picture. He laughed, and gave me a hug, resting his chin on my head. I had never been so joyful.


                We went back inside, his fingers entwined with mine. We walked into one of the living rooms, where Omar, Turki, Faris, Jassim, Lulu, Jana, Shoug, Amal, and Ghalia were sitting. They all looked so happy together, and I couldn't have asked for more. Their jaws dropped as they saw us holding hands, and Omar and Turki started whistling and clapping, which made me blush and automatically start telling them to shut up. Soon the whole group, including Lulu, was cheering. I always knew everyone was just waiting for me and Yousef to admit that we both liked each other.


                 Soon it was time to eat, and everyone quickly rushed to the large buffet, and went into the largest living room, starting to eat. I was walking back to the buffet, when I saw Fahad, with his friends Abdullah, Deema, Dana, and Faisal, running out the door. I caught Fahad's eye, and he quickly ran over to me. ''Were just going for pink berry, relax!'' He said. I laughed it off, and told him to go have fun.


      Who was I to accuse him of trying to spend time with the people he cherished? I know I would've done the same thing if I was in his position.

I ate another sandwich, seeing people were already starting to go back to the dance floor. I posed for countless of photos with people, and then went to go find Lulu. I saw her hanging out with Ali, Fahad's friend Faisal's younger brother. I quickly waved to her, and went on the dance floor with Ghalia and Jana. Lulu was never really the type to talk to guys. But lately she's become more comfortable with letting her self be more friendly with guys. And I'm not talking about her turning into a slut and dating every guy she sees. Just being able to have a normal conversation with them.

They were playing ''Human'' by The Killers, my favorite song in the entire world. I was dancing with the girls, quickly joined by Dalal, Farah, and Sabrina, all girls from the year above me. We all were having a blast, when I felt someone lightly grab my wrist, pulling me out of the crowed. By then, the song was finished and had changed to a slower Lana Del Ray song.




      I spun around, seeing Yousef behind me with a big, devilish grin on his face. By then, it was 11:30, and the party was starting to end. ''What?'' I giggled, trying to figure out what was going through his head. ''My dad called and said that he's out with your dad, at a company party, so he can't pick me up, and told me that your father said that I could have some friends over.'' He said, and seconds later I received a call from my dad, him telling me that I would have to go over Yousef's until he got home. 




      We ran over to our friends, inviting them. They all agreed and 20 minutes later, we all piled into the Tahoe. It was like our own little after party. Jassim and Ali came along too, since they were friends of Yousef. It was packed. We decided to put all of the seats down, making it look like a huge trunk, so everyone would just sit on the floor. Ghalia and Lulu were sitting next to each other, Amal and Shoug next to me. Faris and Omar were both having a ''Yo Mama'' battle with Yousef and Jassim, and Ali and Turki were trying to keep score. 




          We all decided to go to McDonald's. The car looked like a funny circus car, with all of the people climbing out of it and rushing inside, racing to the counter. We all got our food and left, making our way to Yousef's. 




      Once we got there, We all went into the vast living room, and decided to watch a movie. I picked The Hunger Games, and we were all sprawled across all of the couches, eating our McFlurries and fries. 




            Half way through the movie, I got a bbm from Yousef, which I thought was pretty strange, since he was sitting two seats away from me. 




YousefAlX: We need to talk.
