5It's Freaking Las Vegas!
Welcome to my life. Don't worry you won't be bored by it. I can guarantee you'll be up late at night reading and reading about it.
SO let's start, shall we?
"Ladies, I have a feeling this is going to be an unforgettable trip," my best friend Kathy Torres said. We were boarding a plane that would take us to Sin City.
"How can it not be? We're young, we're hot, and it's fucking Las Vegas. It would be a shocker if at least one of us doesn't wake up on a park bench cuddling with a complete stranger," I said.
"Well you and I probably will, but of course Kayla here will be to busy thinking about her dear Andrew," Kathy mocked.
"Oh shut up, I can't help it, I'm getting married! Just you wait till you find your lover boy," Kayla responded back.
"Please Kayla; don't you know me at all? I can't last 2 weeks, let alone a whole lifetime, with a guy. Anyways why couldn't Andrew come anyway?" we started looking for our seats.
"He was going to take care of his mom, she's sick, and well he said he couldn't leave her alone like that."
"Wow, Andrew is just so, so, perfect," I said.
"I would say odd actually," Kathy said. We burst out laughing when we saw the look on Kayla's face. "We're just kidding Kay, Andrew is a great kid, perfect for you," I said once we calmed down.
We sat down in our seats and started to turn off our cell phones. "Yeah, it's just that I like my men a bit rough around the edges," Kathy said.
"A bit rough around the edges? You practically want them to be ex-convicts!" I told Kathy. "The last guy you dated had a parole officer!"
"But he was so sweet. He told me that while he was in jail he would write poems about love and life and a bunch of other things!" Kayla and I just laughed at her.
"Well, what about you Ms. Alex? I still haven't been able to figure out what type of guy you like, and I've known you since freshmen year," Kathy exclaimed. It's true I am hard to figure out. It's just that I didn't really know what type of guy I liked.
"You date every type of guys! Last month you went out with that lawyer guy and then last week, you went on that date with that crazy jackass wannabe!"
"He wasn't crazy! He was a dare devil," I defended. "Just because he sky dives and bungee jumps does not mean he's crazy."
"The point is you are unpredictable when it comes to guys," Kayla piped in. Just then the pilot came out to welcome us. "I'd like to thank all of you for preferring our airline and I hope you enjoy your flight, we will be taking off in a minute," he turned to look at me and gave me a wink I just smiled back at him.
As soon as he left Kathy turned to me, "See now you're going to hook up with an airplane pilot."
"Oh I am not going to hook up with the pilot," I said and then I mumbled, "Of course I wouldn't say no to a date."
Kathy heard me and said, "My point exactly, you'll date practically any type of guy!"
"Well, it's just that I don't really know what type of guy I like, so I thought I should just try them all and see which I prefer,"the airplane started to move and the stewardess started to do show us all the safety procedures.
"Well, we'll see what we can find in Vegas," Kathy said. "After all, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas," I say.
"So what are we going to do once we get settled in the hotel," Kayla asks. "Well, it'll be like about 7:00, so we can get some dinner and then start getting ready to go out," I tell her. We we're already flying and people were started to go to sleep, or read a book, or some were even watching the horrible movie that the airline shows during the flight.
"Well, till then I'm going to catch some Z's, so good night and God bless you," Kathy said and almost instantly fell asleep. Kayla got out a book and started to read, so I decided to take out my iPod and turned it on shuffle.
Well I guess now would be a good time to tell you some facts about me and my wild life. Well, at the moment my two best friends and I are heading of the Las Vegas to celebrate many things in our life. One thing we're celebrating is Kayla's engagement. Another thing is my new promotion, you see I'm a sport reporter for the Spanish channel Telecinco and since I've been doing well I'm one of the lucky ones who get to go to the World Cup in South Africa! And we're also celebrating Kathy for well being well…Kathy.
You see, Kathy and Kayla have been my best friends since we met in freshmen year at Saratoga High School in California. We've been inseparable ever since.
Kathy's parents we're Brazilian immigrants back in the day, but her father was very smart and hard- working, so he studied and became a doctor, her mother owns a high-class Brazilian restaurant. Kathy had decided to become a chef like her mom and now had her own restaurant in New York. She was to say the least eccentric, but that's why we loved her so much.
Kayla was in a word the perfect child. She always got fantastic grades, and would always help her mother around the house. Both her parents were American and both expected a lot from her, but mostly her mother. She was usually the shy one of the three, but was one of the sweetest persons I have ever met. She became an architect, and lives in Boston with her fiancé Dr. Andrew Smith (It's an understatement to say that her mother approves).
Now it's my turn. I'm Alexandra Villarreal Aveiro. I was born in Madrid, Spain, so naturally I'm a Real Madrid fan and a dedicated one too. My dad is Spanish but my mother is Mexican. So far I've lived in 3 different places, Spain, Mexico and USA. My dad is an architect and has his own company, he has one located in the US and the other in Spain and my mom is a book editor. One of my favorite hobbies is soccer. I love the sport, that's partly the reason why I chose a career in sports news casting. Now I'm going to the world cup in South Africa and I couldn't be happier.
But right now I was ready to spend some time with my girls and enjoy life!
When I woke up we had landed in Vegas.
Hello my readers! And welcome to my lovely mind!
First of all, I'd like to thank you all for reading this story, I know there aren't a lot of soccer-stories out there(what a shame), but hopefully you'll like this one.
Second of all, I'd like to thank my awesome tutor Becki2810! She has been wonderful, and has been such help! Thank you Becki!
Well, hopefully I will have another chapter up in a couple of days! And I promise that there will be more love-action! Haha!
Well,
Goodbye for now!
Alex
