Chapter 2 - 2: California

" Well, well! Look how decided to show up!"

"You know me, I can't miss out on a party like this!"

I screamed at Eddie while pouring myself a drink.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was hard to hear him with all the loud music, and people screaming.

" Soooo, I heard you dad got married..."

 To be honest, I kinda forgot about it.

I was a little upset that Eddie brought it up. I don't like the idea of my dad remarrying. 

He didn't even bother to ask me if I was okay with it, he just went and did it.

He didn't even invite me to his wedding...

Th fu*king nerve.

" Yeah .. he did. He hardly knows the women."

" What do you mean?"

" His only known her for a week, and he says I make dumb decisions.."

"Wait, what?!"

Eddie asked shocked.

"Yup, that's what I said."

I started to walk around the house, while greeting some of my friends I go to college with. 

I was also greeted by some girls from college too. But that really didn't catch my attention at the moment.

All I could think about was the women that was gonna be living with us for now on. I wouldn't say " live with us forever" because my dad might do the same thing to her, that he did to my mother.

Throw money at her to make her leave, and tell her to never come back...

But I wouldn't mind if he did it to the women he just married. It would be great if he does.

And the though of having her daughter around makes me wanna throw up. She's probably bragging to all her little friends at school, telling them how rich her and her mom are now.

I don't even know the kid yet, and I'm already annoyed by her. My dad could have at least married a women with out kids.

I was so annoyed, I couldn't deal with it anymore. So, I did what I always do to stop my feeling.

I chugged my whole bottle of beer, and went to grab another.

I know it's a bad habit, but it really does help.

It makes my feelings stop. It turns them right off...

As I'm in the middle of chugging my third beer, Natalie comes up behind me.

"Woah buddy, slowdown! Your gonna get drunk, and you've only been here for an hour!"

"Yeah, I know! That's the point!"

I continued to chugge my beer, and when I reached into the ice chest to get another one, Natalies hand stopped me.

"What's wrong?.."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I don't know what it was about Natalies eyes, but damn... I couldn't hide anything from them. And when I stare at them for to long, my thoughts just start to spill out of my mouth.

"I'm upset, I'm annoyed, and my father got married."

"Ahh... I see... Do you wanna talk about it?... Maybe?"

"No, not right now. I kinda just wanna drink, and forget about it."

" Well, when your ready, I'm here! But now, I'm gonna go find Eddie."

"Alright then, I'll catch you later..."

And with that, I was back to drinking.

I understand that Natalie trys to help, but the idea of her actually getting to know me ... scars me.

She's basically the only women I actually respect, not just because she's dating my best friend, but because she's my friend. She's the only girl I wouldn't try anything with.

So the thought of her knowing the real me....

Yeah, I'd just scar her away...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"California!!"

"Shhhh! Why are you so loud?!"

" Did you expect me not to be loud?! We're moving to California!"

What was my mom thinking?! 

I know she's crazy. But I didn't think she'd be this crazy! 

" Sweetheart, why are you making this harder then it has to be? Why can't you just be happy for me?"

"Oh yeah mom, I'm sooo happy that you married a guy you barley know, and that we're moving to California! Soo happy!"

I said sarcastically, while putting my things in moving boxes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Look, it's not that bad okay. His a great guy! I bet if you were in my shoes, you'd do the same!"

"Yeah no, if I found a great guy, I would date him, not marry him in a week!"

"Just... Just wait until you meet him, okay? I promise, his a great guy! I bet your gonna love him, just as much as I do..."

I could see how much my mom was looking for my approval, but.... marring a guy, in one week? That's insane!

I should have gone with my mom to veges when she told me the school she works for give her the tickets as a bones. But I was busy with mid terms, and college application. I didn't have time to mess around.

So, of course, I'm stressed out!

I'm leaving all my friends behind and my crush, and Im moving in with some random rich dude I don't even know.

All my friends are telling me how lucky I am that my mom was able to get a billionaire husband, and how I should be happy that I'm gonna have everything I've ever wanted, but... I'm not. 

I feel sick to my stomach with the idea, the whole rich people stuff isn't me. I'm gonna feel out of place in that house. I shouldn't even say house, its a huge mansion.

On top of a hill...

A hill! You know how much money you have to have to own not even a house, but a mansion on a hill?!...

But, I want my mom to feel at ease, so I'll try my best, either way, it can't be that bad...

It's just gonna be my mother's husband, my mother and me...right?
