Snuggly Wuggly

-Randomly Chrissa-tastic Title-

"I'M GOING OUT!" Becca yelled up to Marisol.
"OKAY HAVE A GOOD TIME!" Marisol called back, from her room.

I was hiding in the closet by the door.

She was wearing a short glittery silver dress with no sleeves. She put on her black North Face jacket and her silver high heels and walked out, shutting the door behind her.

I knew where she was going.
She was going on her date with Matt.

All week, ever since the big fight, Matt has been CONSTANTLY ignoring me and CONSTANTLY with Becca.

I opened the door of the closet and fell out, covered in coats and scarves.

I got up, took all the coats and hats off and checked my outfit in the mirror.

I was wearing black Ugg boots, white skinny jeans, a white shirt, a black leather jacket and a wig cap.

Yup, I am going to crash their date.

"Where are you?" I asked, searching for the Curly red wig I bought at Wig World the day before.

"AHA!" I found it and put it on.

"I'd be a cute redhead." I smiled to myself in the mirror and put in the green contacts I bought the day before too.

I prepped my hair, grabbed my purse, and left.

I shut the door and saw Matt and Becca walking down the street to go to Icie.

I grabbed all of my pride and ran to Icie.

[-:-]


"Oh Mattie, you're SO funny" Becca smiled, ruffling Matt's hair.

They were sitting at a table, and where was I?

Hiding behind the counter.

"Um, excuse me miss?" A girl asked. I looked up and was staring into Sonali's eyes.

OHMYGOSH, SHE'S ON HER SHIFT.

"Yes?" I used my Brooklyn, New York accent.
"You can't stay here." Sonali stated.
"Well, too bad. I have to stay here, alright, Hon. Comprendo?" I rolled my eyes.
Sonali looked at me a little closer.

"Chrissa?" She whispered.

Well, there goes my cover.

"Is it that obvious?" I whispered back.
"No, I just know your Brooklyn accent when I hear it." Sonali smiled.
"Oh." I smiled back.
"Are you here for Matt and Becca." Sonali nodded to them.
I nodded.
"Wow, I know you too well, girl." Sonali chuckled.

"You don't GET IT!" I started.

"Actually I do." She interjected.


I just looked at her, shocked. She went on.

"You think you're 'In Love' with Matt. Honey, honestly...." Sonali trailed off.

I knew what she was going to say;

'it's just a crush. Remember Ryan Cambers in 5th grade?' then we'd laugh, but I'd be heartbroken.

I blinked my 'green' eyes and prepared for the worst.

"I think you actually have real feelings for him. I mean, you never did this to any of your other crushes." Sonali finished, giving me a small smile.

I could have squealed with delight.

"You mean it?" I asked, smiling.
"Yes, and even if he didn't say what you wanted him to on New Year's, doesn't mean that it's not possible." Sonali hugged me.
"Thanks, Nali." I smiled.
"Anytime, Chris." She patted my back.

"WHO ARE YOU?" Mr. Valahi, Icie's owner, came out of his office and pointed his finger at me.

"Oh, Mr. V, this is my new friend, Michelle Owens." Sonali winked at me.

"Sonali, you know this is no place for your friends and you to hang out." Mr. Valahi's thick Italian accent laced every word.

"I know." Sonali sighed, looking at the floor.
"I was just leaving, actually. Bye Sonali and thank-you" I waved to Sonali, then walked from behind the counter and sat down at a table right by Becca and Matt's.

Sonali walked from the counter and wasn't in her uniform anymore, but she had a Strawberry Smoothie and a Chocolate Shake in her hands.

"One Chocolate-y Goodness for my best friend." Sonali handed the shake my way.
"And one Strawberry Fields Forever Smoothie for mine." I beamed, motioning towards her drink.

"WHAT?" Becca yelled at Matt.

Sonali and I exchanged a glance and hushed down to hear their conversation.

"Why are you yelling?" Matt asked.
"Because, you said that you DON'T LIKE SPARKLY THINGS!" Becca's face was red.
"Because, if you haven't noticed, dearie, I'M A BOY!" Matt yelled.
"YEAH BUT I THOUGHT YOU WERE GAY!" Becca yelled back.

I almost choked on my shake. That's why she asked him out?

"THEN WHY DID YOU ASK ME OUT?" Matt asked.
"BECAUSE I THOUGHT YOU WOULD BECOME MY BEST FRIEND!" Becca yelled, then got up and left.
"AND I'M NOT GAY!" Matt called out to her direction, then slid down in his seat.

"Go." Sonali smiled.
"No." I refused.
"GO!" Sonali pushed me towards Matt's table.

"Hi." I whispered in my Brooklyn accent.
"Hi?" Matt asked.
"Have we ever met?" He asked.
"No, but I go to your school, AGPPA. I was just wondering, since I know you're friends with that Christina Maxwell girl." I said, purposely messing up my name.
"Her name's Chirssa." Matt corrected.
"Oh! Yeah, well, are you two friends again? 'Cause all of my friends and I have decided that you two MUST go out." I beamed.
He looked at me.
"Heh, you know what....... Ms. 'whatever-your-name-is,' I think you and your friends won't have to wait any longer." Matt smirked, then got up and left.


My eyes grew about 40 sizes bigger than normal.

Sonali ran up behind me, spun me around, and hugged me.

"AHHHHHHHHHHH OHMYGOSH OHMYGOSH" We both screamed.

"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY GOSHHHHHHHHHHH!" We jumped up and down, then grabbed our shakes and hurried home.

It's Getting Better All The Time
