《||Wild At Heart|| Johnny Depp》"It's Overrated"

"Elektra!" she exclaimed happily. I jumped onto her just to give a bone-crushing hug.
Oh, she hated hugs. But this time she actually hugged me back.
"I haven't seen you in forever," she looked me up and down, then up again, stopping at my hair. "Your hair is fucking awesome!"
That's why we always got along. No matter what the situation is, we are thinking the same thing.
Maxine was my best friend before I moved to New York. I wasn't born here, in America. Anyway, we were inseparable. Then my parents decided we will move here, because my dad got some kind of big promotion. After, we still kept in touch, but as soon as our adult lives started, we didn't text that often. I'm very happy to have her back.
"Thanks. You don't look too bad yourself." I replied, and she punched me playfully in the arm.
We decided we should take a cab to my place and then talk all about what happened during the time we didn't see each other. Oh, it's so great to have her back!
"You little-" Maxine started as I stole a crisp from her plate. We were currently eating, talking 'bout some handsome men we met over the years. I knew that sooner or later, she's gonna ask about my non-existent anymore relationship. And there it goes.
"How are you and-" she spoke, but I interrupted her quickly.
"We broke up," I said, playing with my fingers. When I looked up I saw her look softening. "He was the one to do it."
This conversation made my thoughts go again to that man. I knew him, more, we were already together when I was still hanging out with Maxine. It was a really long time ago. And now even a mention of his name makes me wanna cry.

"I'm so sorry. He must've not been worthy." she replied. 'Could've realize it sooner' I mumbled, more to myself.
"I mean, I never liked the guy. Just one look at his sassy face, and the only thing you want to do is punch-" I chuckled a little at her facial expressions, but mostly at how she always wanted to make me feel better.
"Do you have anyone on your mind yet?" she asked, smirking. I smiled at her, but the response didn't match it.
"Nah, I don't feel like playing in love again. It's overrated."

A while after we finished our meals and Maxine started to gather all her stuff.
"All right, I gotta go. It's late already and I have to feed my goldfishes." she started, but laughed as soon as she saw my expression. "Just joking, but I seriously have to go. Call me whenever you want to hang out. We still have things to catch up on." Maxine added and I nodded.
We said our goodbyes and I went back to the living room. I played some music and laid on the couch. All because of Maxine, I started remembering the things we did together, then these I did as a teen, basically all what I did when I was younge-
My thoughts were interrupted by a sudden ringing of my phone. I found it laying under one of the pillows, and turned the music down. On the screen I saw the name of the caller.
.
"Hello?" I picked up. I quickly heard the known voice of the friend of mine.
"Hey, Elektra" he exclaimed happily. "I'm calling 'cause in about a week, well, next Friday, Joe's doing a birthday party, and I wanted to ask, do you wanna come? The party's private, so there won't be any paparazzi."

I grinned to myself. Joe's a really cool guy, so I don't see why I shouldn't go. But then suddenly, a question popped up in my mind. A very weird one, yet I couldn't resist asking.
"Sure, I'll be there." I replied. "Listen, do you know if.. Johnny's coming?" I heard him gasp, but in a surprised way.
"Believe it or not, but he asked me the same question 'bout you." I let my mouth hang open. What?
"Why?" I heard his voice get a little concern. "You don't want him to or-"
"No, no, just asking" I replied hurriedly. I cringed, for some reason, at how Alice perceived it.
"Yeah, he said he would rather be able to come. This guy really has a lot of things on his mind right now."
I agreed. I unbelievably hated her, for hurting such a man. What a person would do that?
Alice told me a few more things about the party, such as it's not gonna be that big, and that there isn't any dress code. Honestly, I loved partying with him and all the rest. They all had a specific sense of humor, and it really suited me.
When I finally knew everything, we hung up and I started to get ready for bed. I love being all comfortable, laying in your pajamas and watching a movie. I also got myself a cup of water, in case I was thirsty at 3 in the morning, because why not, who needs being thirsty at reasonable hours? Though I think I'm not the only one.
I reminded myself of the things that have happened today, and a few moments after my head touched the soft pillows, I fell into a deep sleep.
