The night of the my last high school dance, the air was thick with Alyssa-Kirsten catfight rumors and speculation.
> Did you hear Kirsten wants to fight Alyssa tonight?
> I heard Kirsten's car got keyed last night and Alyssa probably did it.
> Kirsten and Alyssa have been DM fighting on Instagram all week, I saw the thread and it's 29 pages long hard copy. They were cussing on it. [Pretty scandalous for 2015 Christian Iowa.]
> Alyssa better put that long hair up in a bun or braid it or it's gonna get pulled from behind.....Yeah, but isn't showing up in braids pretty much asking for a fight?.....Oh, you're right.
Earlier in the week, the high school junior boys had been 'anointed' the new school leaders, and a frmew of the football team captains had taken it upon themselves to be high school dance 'escorts'. They would jump in if anyone obviously needed a ridd home or were otherwise behaving rowdy. Like, say ..... if two girls were about to catfight.
So pretty much all night, Kirsten and I hsd a wall of junior boys between as, and couldn't so much as make eye contact. We both danced with the boy we were competing over .... and both kissed him .... which, yes, meant we were in effect swapping spit with each other. I could literally taste Kirsten on the boy's mouth when I kissed him all night long .... which grossed me out .... excited me .... got my blood boiling .... got my blood running... and explosion and potpourri of female hormones all at once.
All very confusing.
I went home to bed, at midnight, collapsing in physical and emotiona exhaustion. I woke up at 3am, somehow wide awake on just 3 hours' sleep.
I masturbated. Hard. Why hadn't Kirsten and I fought tonight? Aren't high school boys into watching catfights? Why were the boys keeping us from fighting?
Should I call Kirsten tomorrow and ask her to fight? Or DM her? I pull up her Instagram.
Shit. I'm blocked.
SHE blocked ME?
Seriously, WTF??? A JUNIOR blocking a SENIOR?
Is she afraid to fight me?
Did her parents find out we might fight, and tell her to avoid me.
For the next week, I drive past Kirsten's house, trying to see what's up.
Her dad busts me one day driving by. Or was it her brother?? I think she has an older brother--is that him?? Shit, he's cute. I drive past slowly. He's checking me out. Maybe he'll come up to the car.
SHIT. It's not her brother, .... It's Kirsten's dad. Damn, how does he look so young?? He looks fucking 38 tops. Is he checking me out?? Does he know it's the girl his daughter wants to fight??
I check out Kirsten's dad's LinkedIn profile. Fuck. Stanford AND Duke?? Fuck, he's fucking connected.
WAS he checking me out??
I obsess about driving by Kirsten's house. I do a couple times. Nobody's out.
I set up a LinkedIn profile on myself. I look at Kirsten's dad's profile. Someone is looking at my profile, but I can't tell who. Is it Kirsten? Is it Kirsten's dad? Both?
Do they talk about me at home? Does Kirsten's mom know? I look at her profile. She's beautiful. Blonde, like me. Is Kirsten's dad into blondes?
By now, I'm masturbating every morning from 3am to 6am.
I wish she and I could just fight.
To be continued.....
