Let it hurt Let it bleed

Chapter 13

The next day I woke up, did the usual stuff and traveled to school. I went to my locker to return some stuff. I saw Tam and Ramin both approaching me. "Hey Sierra!" They both said. "Hello Ramin , Tam!" I said then went to Hadley because after the chat with my sisters I started becoming awkward. "Hadley can I talk with you in private?" I asked him and since it was the start of the day we were both free so I sat on a park bench with him "So what is the old problemo Sierra?" he asked "If you tell anyone this I will kill you and disown you as one of my best friends okay." I said and he nodded his head "Ok right so I'm not one hundred percent sure but I think I like Ramin... and Tam." I said "Well duh there both your friends." he said "No I think I like like them." I said. "You like like two people is that even possible?" He asked. "I don't know either, I probably like one of them but I don't know which one." I said. "Hey what are you two talking about?" Mandy asked. "Sierra might like either Tam or Ramin." Hadley said "Hadleyyy!" I scolded. "It's Mandy, she's our friend and she's not either Ramin or Tam." He explained. "I get that but Mandy should be the first and last person you tell. Please." I said

"Omg you like both of them?" she asked "I don't know but I think so." I told her "Well how are you going to find out?" she asked "Umm I didn't really think of that and I can't flirt to save my life." I laughed "Ooooo what if you never mind that was a lame idea." Hadley said "I could just wait to see if one of them asks me out again?" I suggested

"You can just because you don't know which of them do you want. And I'm certain that they won't complain because all they know is that you're friends." Mandy said. "Yeah, I think I'm gonna do that." I said. "Hadley, I swear to God if you tell anyone and I'm mean anyone I'm gonna murder you. Okay! Thank you!" I said which made him nervously laugh. "Sierra, class." Ramin called. "Right, bye guys see you lunch and I'm watching you Hadley." I said then we went to our first class.

I wasn't really sure how to act with this new feeling towards my best friend I could just try act normal but it was musical theatre and we had to pick a song "Ok on three how about we say a song together and see if it's the same one." he suggested "Yeah ok ready one two three." "All I ask of you." we both said at the same time "That was easier than I thought it was gonna be." he said and we went to tell our teacher which song we'd chosen "Ah all I ask of you and I see you have chosen one with a kiss for extra credit well done." she said kiss omg there is a kiss in all I ask of you how could I forget as if dealing with my heart wasn't confusing enough now I had to kiss him for a project the class ended and I found tam who was in my next lesson "Hey!" Tam said walking towards our direction. "Hey Tam!" I said we talked for a while. Then I realized Ramin was just watching us not saying a word. "Are you okay?" I mouthed to him and he just gave me a thumbs up. I tried to join him in our conversation but it's either he won't join or Tam would change the topic. Then the teacher came to have a discussion. Once we were finished we were off to lunch. The morning was for sure very awkward I thought to myself as we were walking to the cafeteria.

I sat down with Tam on my left and Ramin on my right how much more awkward could this day get I have Hadley a help me look but he didn't know what to do. "I need to go to the restroom Mandy a word please." she got up and joined me we were the only two in their thank god. "This day has been so awkward like I was talking to Tam and tried to involve Ramin in the conversation but Tam would just change the subject and now I have to kiss Ramin because of the song we chose in theatre class and now I'm sitting  between them what do I do?" I asked her "Wow that's a lot Sierra umm just act like yourself and be true to who you are we better get going back to the guys I'm surprised they haven't ripped each others heads of by now." she said as we sat back down on the table

"Well, they both don't know I like them so..." I whispered. "What did we miss?" I asked. "Why do girls go to the restroom in pairs or groups?" Hadley asked. "Umm.. that's private information." Mandy said and I nodded my head. "Sierra, about the project you think we should practice on Friday the same as last time?" He asked. "I'll ask my parents when they'll allow me. Then I'll inform you about it." I replied. "Hadley you're in my next class right?" I asked and he nodded his head. "Oh okay!" I said. We had a conversation about our favorite subjects before the bell rang and we went our separate ways. The class I had with Hadley was fun we didn't do much I was too busy thinking of everything that had happened today so I wasn't paying attention for the whole lesson when it ended I didn't even know what it was about but that was it the day was over I went to my locker and they were both waiting their BOTH OF THEM god ok Sierra chill "Hey guys!" I said and both of them smiled I got the things from my locker and went to go "I guess it's bye then" Tam grabbed my hand and kissed it "Bye Sierra see you tomorrow." he said "Do you want me to walk with you to your house of course?" Ramin asked "Yeah come on let's go then." I said my heart tingling from the kiss on my hand.

"Ramin, you've been acting off lately? Are you okay?" I asked him while we went out of the campus. "I'm okay, don't worry about me." He said. "Oh I think it's also good that you came because I think we both need to explain the project to my parents..." I said. "Sounds good." He said. Yep something was definitely bothering him. I held both of his shoulders. "Ramin, you know you can tell me anything right?" I asked him looking deep into his eyes. "Yes, I know Sierra." He said then we continued walking until we reached the door of my house. "Mom Ramin's hear we need to tell you something." immediately my sisters bolted downstairs and my mom came out of the kitchen "Ok umm so for our theatre class we chose a song and for extra credit we need to uh kiss in it and the project is worth half our grade are you umm ok with that." I asked my mum unintentionally grabbing Ramin's hand "Yeah sweetie as long as you will be ok and thank you Ramin for coming with her to tell us as well." phew that was fine then I walked to the door with him "Thanks for being their see you tomorrow." I said and he pulled me in for a hug avoiding my waist because of what happened last time I hugged him back "See you tomorrow Sierra" he said then left and my sisters mouths were on the floor 

"we need to talk with you upstairs right now"
