This Ain't Love

part 10

when she walked through the door she saw her parents play fighting so she looked at them smiling then walked up the stairs going into her room closing the door and taking an after school nap she woke up at five forty five and quickly got out of bed grabbing some ripped jean shorts and a graphic tee that stopped at her waist putting it on then she put on her converse and grabbed her phone and hand held wallet by the time she finished she heard a horn outside honk so she walked downstairs and before she walked out the door her mom called her name

Y/m: where are you going
Y: mom i'm not a child i'll be back later i just have to talk to a friend
Y/d: you look a little dressed up to only be talking to a friend
Y: ok so this is the part where y'all don't come outside please
Y/m: fine we'll look out the window

y/n sighed and opened the door then she walked out closing it behind her and walking to the car mike opened the door from the inside and she got in closing it then he looked up when he was about to pull out the driveway

Mike: are those your parents
Y: yes please ignore them they do this every time

mike laughed and y/n rolled down the window signaling for them to close the blinds and once they did she sighed and covered her face in embarrassment then mike pulled off and they didn't really talk besides when he tried to make small awkward talk once they made it they walked inside and ended up ordering the same thing then once they got their ice cream they sat at a table in the back eating it

Y: so why am i here
Mike: you know how i was telling you about me and talyehs relationship and how it was a rotting flower dying day by day
Y: yea
Mike: well yesterday it died and i had to call things off
Y: why what happened yesterday
Mike: she was just yelling at me and nagging me and i realized i couldn't do this for another year or even another day so i ended things yes i still care for her but it's like nothing i do for her is enough or right and she pesters me everyday like i have to do whatever she says
Y: ok i just don't understand why i'm here instead of one of your friends
Mike: well you seem nice and it seems easier to talk to you plus all my friends are in good relationships they won't care and taking advice from kobe is like begging to be single
Y: so what advice am i supposed to give you
Mike: i don't know any
Y: ok do you love her
Mike: well yea i've been with her since sophomore year
Y: are you in love with her
Mike: i don't know
Y: do you think about her so much that it makes your head hurt when you see her do you want to kiss her and let know how much she means to you do you get a nauseous feeling in your stomach anytime she comes around do you get anxious when you touch her and when she says your name do you like it more than anything else
Mike: no...but i feel that with someone else but i've only talked to her like four times that's why i'm so confused
Y: well maybe you like the person you feel that for because trust me you're not gonna want to kiss a random person walking on the street
Mike: but if i didn't feel those emotions for talyeh yet i feel them for a near stranger then what's wrong with me
Y: nothings wrong with you you're human and have feelings maybe talyeh was never meant for you and this whole time you thought you were holding on to a rotten flower when this whole time it was dead but you were trying to water it so much that it started getting worse but in your eyes you saw it as fixing it
Mike: wow
Y: i'm not in your relationship and it's not my business but if it was me i say you should bury it and never walk back because to me it seems like you're doing most of the work now maybe her love language is yelling i don't know but i know it's not healthy for your way of loving
Mike: what do you think my love language is
Y: honestly it's hard to tell but i think yours is communication and touching you like to talk about things that are bothering you and you like touch because it gives you the feeling of safety and reassurance almost like an innocent baby
Mike: you're good at this
Y: well what can i say my mom and dad both use communication as a way to talk to me and they're good at it i guess i just picked up on it
Mike: what do they do for a living
Y: my dads a lawyer and my mom is a surgeon
Mike: explains why your house is so nice
Y: what does your parents do
Mike: my mom is a nurse and my dad well he isn't in the picture
Y: oh well i'm sure he's missing out on a great son so that's his lost not yours and you don't need anyone who's gonna walk out on you so think of it as a win win situation
Mike: um what time is it
Y: it's now seven thirty
Mike: shoot i gotta help my mom with something at eight um can we do this again next time if it's ok the movie
Y: yea sure just let me know the day
Mike: alright well are you ready to go
Y: yea i'm ready
Mike: ok i'll pay
Y: you sure
Mike: yea it's fine
Y: ok well thank you
Mike: of course
