That One Friend Group: Summer Feud

22. He's Gone Forever Now

Ryder's POV:

We went home after spending what felt like the whole day at the park and I was so excited to go home to message on the boy gang group chat because Parker was going to tell us his crush!

(R= Ryder, P= Parker, J= Josh, T= Tayler)

J: Tayler get on your phone! We have tea.
R: Yeah.
P: No..
R: You do Parker, shut up.
T: What, i'm doing stuff.
P: Cheating on Destiny?
T: What? No. Unpacking you idiot.
P: Oh.
J: Parker has a crush on someone and he's gonna tell us.
T: Oooh, tell us!
P: Fine it's...

Parker went offline.

R: Parker get back on!
J: Yeah!
R: Let's spam him.

We started spamming him then he finally came back.

P: Fine! I'll tell you guys.
R: Who?
J: I'm ready.
T: I have tea right beside me.
R: Lol
P: It's L---a
T: I love L---a.
J: Same!
R: Wait! Is it Layla?
P: Maybe...
R: AWW
J: EWW

T: I SHIP, KINDA
P: Haha, thanks guys.
P: I'm thinking about asking her out...
R: DUDE THAT'S MY EX LMAOOO
P: OH I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE
T: HA
J: LMAO
P: Can I ask her out?
R: Of course, you don't need my permission, take her.
P: Okay I will.

We kept texting and talking about that and also asked Tayler on how he's doing and he told us he was good which was great. The only down part is that he said he can't come visit us anytime soon because school's starting next week and he won't have time.

After we said bye I went to text Stella because I would've felt bad if I didn't because I want to do everything she wants. Even if that's telling her one of my best friend. I went on our messages and said hi and she immediately came on. I told her that he liked Layla and that he was gonna ask her out and he reaction was just 'wow'. None of us could believe that it was her but we can't change Parker's mind. Me and Stella spoke about it for a bit but she said she had to go. Something was a little sus to me about out conversation, the way she was typing didn't seem like her but I just guessed that she'd been hanging out with Jordan too much.

The next day I woke up and I saw that the group chat had been messaging all morning and from what I could tell, we were going to the park which I knew would be full of drama. I got ready, had breakfast and left to go to the park.

Jordan's POV

I'm mad at Parker. Frustrated. Annoyed. Ready to poke his eyes out. Last night, the boy gang left the park when me, Destiny, Stella and Chris went to the other park beside my house. Stella got a text from Ryder so I stole her phone and I saw that Parker's crush is Layla! I was hoping that he meant a different Layla but no, he meant the annoying Layla to ever exist. Me and Chris were going to the park were I was going to throw some hands. Chris kept telling me not to but I didn't listen, all I could see was the texts. Why her out of everyone! I'm not jealous but i'm just concerned for his eyesight because I don't think he's seeing the same Layla as I do.

We arrived and all the remaining boy gang were there with Destiny and Stella. Destiny looked worried but I just guessed it was about Tayler so I didn't bother to ask her what was wrong. We approached them and I pushed Parker off the round-a-bout because I was so mad. "Why do you like Layla? Layla! Out of everyone!" I yelled at him and everyone just looked at me, I love causing scenes. "What? How do you know?" He asked me and I pointed at Stella then Ryder. "Him!" I said and Parker looked at Ryder and he shrugged. "Sorry! Stella why'd you tell her?" Ryder exclaimed and Stella looked at me. "I didn't! Jordan took my phone, it was her texting you not me!" She snapped at him and I kicked Parker. "Why?" I grabbed his shirt and pulled him close to my face before slapping him harshly, the impact caused a hand print to be on his face. "Jordan! I'm sorry, stop hitting me." He said trying to protect himself. "Not good enough!" I said and then let go of him.

"Quick group meeting, NOT Parker." I said and pulled the rest of the group into a huddle. "What are we doing about him?" Chris asked and we all looked about at each other. "Kick him out the group." I suggested and somehow, even Ryder and Josh went with it.

"Parker." I started, of course I was gonna say it because no one else had to the guts to. He looked up at me with puppy eyes. "Ye-ah?" He seemed worried and I loved it. "Your out of the group, go be with Layla." I told him and I could tell that he got angry. "Fine!" He got up and hit me and I tried to hit back but Destiny and Stella held me back.

He walked away. "Woah." Ryder said and I turned to everyone. "That's him gone." Chris said and clapped his hands. "He's gone forever now." I corrected and everyone agreed.

We spent the rest of the day walking about, somehow the boy gang were disappointed in him as well. He was officially out of our friend group, forever.
