"I WANT TO ROCK!" I scream as I swish my head back and forth.
"I WANNA ROCK!" Grace screams along with me.
"ROCK!" Ab screams.
"I WANT TO ROCK!" Carla shouts.
"I WANNA ROCK!" We shout all together.
We are all watching Rock of Ages. We are getting a bit over excited. We can be as loud as we want though. Mum is away on another business trip. John has gone out with friends. Adam is at Tom's.
I invited the girls over because I don't want to be lonely. I eat some popcorn and then sip my glass of wine. We put Rock of Ages on cause we love it. We'd been singing along to every song.
"DON'T STOP BELIEVING!" We shout.
We keep singing until the music stops and the last few credits roll.
"So now what?"
"More popcorn!" Grace screams as she springs up and runs into the kitchen.
I grab the remote and flick through the channels.
"Ooo The Blaire Witch Project!" Carla smiles.
"It's on in ten minutes." Says Ab.
I leave it on that channel and we sit through a few adverts. Grace walks back in holding a big bowl of warm popcorn.
"What we watching?" She asks as she sits down.
"Blaire Witch." Carla answers.
"Ooo nice! Lets turn the lights off so it's more creepy." She gets up and flicks the lamps that are on off. She walks back and sits down. "There." She smiles. "Time to scare ourselves shitless."
The film starts and we all squish together onto one couch. We don't want to get too scared.
We all lean in intently. Suspense in the air. I was creeped out, Grave was gripping my hand. Carla was buried into me and Ab gripping Grace's hand.
"BOO!"
We all screamed at the top of our voices and turned around. Adam and Tom were booming with laughter.
"When the hell did you get back?!" Carla says panting.
"Two minutes ago. We thought nobody was in because all the lights were off." Tom says between laughs.
"We saw you all scared and well... It was too good an opportunity to miss." Adam grins.
"Dickheads." Grace mutters.
"Scared the hell out of me!" Ab says.
"Sorry baby." Tom says smiling and leaning in for a kiss.
Ab turns her head so his lips hit her cheek.
Tom pouts at her.
"I'm gonna go get a beer." Adam says as he walks over to the kitchen.
"Me too." Tom says following him.
"Get us some more wine!" I call. "It's in the fridge! Top shelf!"
"I don't get why you don't kiss him more often you know Ab." Grace says.
"What do you mean?" Ab asks.
"Well... If I had a boyfriend as hot and sweet as Tom, I'd kiss him every time I had the chance."
"You think I'm hot and sweet?" Tom asks with his eyebrow crooked up.
"Jesus! Stop creeping up on people!" Grace hisses.
"You'd totally date me." Tom smirks.
"Shut up." Grace says.
"She totally would." Ab says.
"Ab! That's your boyfriend."
"No it's not." She smiles.
"What?!"
"I've been pretending to go out with him, to prove you like him."
"Did you know about this?" Grace asks me.
"It was my idea." I grin.
"GUYS!" She shouts angrily. "I love you." She smiles at us sweetly.
Tom fakes a little cough. Grace turns to him.
"So you like me?" She asks.
"A lot." He replies. "You like me?"
"When you aren't being an asshole yes."
She skips over to him. He puts his hand on her hips and she wraps his arms around her neck. Cute. They kiss.
I high five the girls and we all clap. Adam wolf whistles and I turn to look at him. He's in the doorway holding two bottles of beer and our wine bottle.
I wonder if Adam and I will be able to do that. To kiss in front of our friends. To not hide. Would they all accept it? Grace has. What would John and mum say? What would Meg think?
"Okay enough romance!" Ab calls.
Grace and Tom pull apart, both of them grinning widely.
"Film time!" Carla grins.
"What we watching?" Adam asks as he sits down on the beanbag.
"You pick." I throw the remote at him.
He skips through and then settles on a channel.
"The Lost Boys. I hear it's good." He smiles.
His eyes reach mine. I grin widely. He knows it's my favourite film.
"Love this film!" Smiles Ab.
"Same." I smile.
"Never seen it." Tom says as he sits on one of the empty couches.
Grace sits next to him and they cuddle up. I'm glad those two finally got together. Grace has finally admitted to liking Tom. It's about time!
