It's been six days since I last saw Rio. I haven't heard from him, or even attempted to text him.

He obviously doesn't want to hang out anymore and you know what, that's fine. I've never been one to force anything. I can only be myself and I'll never change who I am to suit a person.

If you don't want to be friends with me then that's just unfortunate for you.. because I'm funny as fuck.

Seriously though, I'm not dwelling on it too much. He obviously has his reasons for not wanting to be friends with me and that's good enough for me. That's his business and I don't want to interfere in it.

I've kept myself busy with working my mom at the salon and watching chick flicks with Talon and Myla. Sienna also called to check up on me which I thought was really nice of her. Considering she's Rio's friend, she still made sure that I was doing okay too.

To be fair, Brody and Kayin have checked up on me too. Not as much as Sienna of course, but they've made the effort.

My phone vibrates and I reach over to my nightstand, stretching across Myla to get it because she's too lazy to just give it to me. Jacey's name appears on the screen and I swipe the FaceTime through, answering his call.

"Hey T, how are you feeling?" He asks as his face appears on the screen.

Yes, he's decided to nickname me T. I have no idea why but we're just going with it.

Myla instantly looks up at me, hearing a male voice through the phone and sits up in the bed, trying to see who I'm talking to.

"I'm okay, how are you?" I ask him, trying to move the phone away from Myla who's now grabbing my arm and pulling me towards her.

He chuckles deeply. "You don't look as though you're okay. Are you being attacked by something?"

Rolling my eyes, I shove Myla away from me, almost elbowing her in the face in the process. "Not something, someone." I grumble and she flips me off, pursing her lips.

"Anyone interesting?" He asks and I shrug.

"Depends on your definition of interesting," I reply when suddenly my phone is snatched out of my hand.

Myla jumps off the bed and runs toward the other side of the room, looking down at the screen. "Hi!" She squeals as I run after her, causing her to jump back onto the bed as she tries to get away from me.

"Well you're definitely not Thea," I hear Jacey say and I can't help but laugh at him. He's such a dork.

Since Rio decided he didn't want to be around me anymore, Jacey has called me every single day, checking that I'm okay. He's acting like I'm going through a monumental breakup and need TLC every five seconds.
