Blackmailed Into The Band

All Kinds Of Awkward

Carter kept smirking long after Aidan left.

" Sweetheart if you preferred Aidan all you had to do was-"

" No!" I yelled, walking to the living room as he followed.

He picked up Hayley, kissing her as I picked up Gerard and sat on the couch with my phone in hand.

" Are you okay?" He asked after a while.

" Yeah."

" Of course you are. Aidan was here with you," He laughed, receiving a text message. He smiled before typing in a reply.

" Shut the fuck up... Who are you even texting?" I asked.

" No one important. Do you wanna hear what happened to your ex?"

I turned my phone off and nodded, ready to hear everything.

" As soon as you ran off, Aidan pushed him and ran after you. Everyone was a little dumbstruck since you know, Aidan and Josh are like bff's and that was unexpected. Especially since Aidan says he hates you but I don't think that's the case anymore," He laughed. " Anyways, the ginger chick was embarrassed and Josh was too distracted by his sister to do anything. By the way, the ginger's name is Cinnamon," He scoffed.

I bursted out laughing. " She might've ruined my first relationship and made me cry, but at least I don't have her name," I said.

" Wow you are such a bitch," Carter said before giggling and typing something on his phone.

" It's better than being called Cinnamon."

" 'Lexia you're named after a brain defect," He said.

" But I'm not a spice," I said before feeling tears rolling down my face again. I was angry and upset that this spice was the one who took Josh away.

" Don't cry," Carter said, leaning over to hug me. I caught a glimpse of his phone, seeing the name Teddy Bear pop up in his messages.

" Who's teddy bear?" I asked, wiping my eyes.

He pulled away and shrugged. " My friend. She put her own name in my contacts," He said.

" Oh."

Seriously? He expected me to believe that?

" Yeah. She's insane. I'll have to introduce you two one day. And maybe Emily won't be your only friend anymore."

" You're my friend," I pointed out.

" No," He smiled, picking up Hayley as another message made his phone vibrate. He blushed, covering his smile with his hand.

" Is your friend sending you nudes or something?" I asked, turning the TV on.

" Shut up, she is not," He laughed. " Anyways, I don't think TV is gonna take your mind off of that rat. Do we have any ice cream?" He asked.

" I don't know," I shrugged.

He got up, placing Hayley on my lap before he dashed towards the kitchen. After the freezer door opened and closed, he came back with a tub of pistachio and chocolate chip ice cream.

" Eat everything. And call him a bad word using every letter in the alphabet," He instructed.

I tore the lid off my ice cream.

" Asshole," I began, poking at the ice cream. " Bitch. Coward. Dick... Um... Egg-sucker. Fuckboy. Gorilla. Heifer..."

" Wow. You called him a baby cow. How rude."
