See You Tomorrow (Boy Best Friend)

Chapter 5

Cruz POV

Senior year hit us and nothing changed, my mental state had its ups and downs though. One week I was fine and positive the next minute I was ready to snap. Somedays I would even be distant from her. One week, my mom was gone. She and her boyfriend took a vacation so I was by myself after school since Winafried had gotten back into sports. I was sitting in my room looking out my window with my desks in front of me with all the pill bottles I could find. Sometimes I just stared at them wondering which would cause the most pain, which would cause the least, which would be the slowest and which would be the fastest. All of a sudden I heard a car go off signaling it was locked. I looked out my window and saw Winnie walking over to the house crossing the street. I began cursing to myself and grabbing all the bottles trying to hide them. All of a sudden the window slid open and I dumped all the bottles in a bin hidden under my desk.

"So I thought you would like it kind of tropically if you ask me oh I got crazy news too-" was all I heard her say climbing through the window before she looked up at me.

"God you're awfully sweaty, you good?" She asked, trying to hand me my drink.

"Will you stop doing that?" I yelled at her frustrated. I got worried because the thing with Winnie is when you yell at her there's only 2 reactions. She either feels bad and shuts down and becomes sad, quiet, distant or she fights back irritated and stubborn as all hell and trust me there's no in-between.

"God i'm sorry I just got off practice and picked you up a Starbucks drink" She told me back passively not seeing a problem. The truth was I didn't mind it but what if she caught me in the middle of taking them or something. I took the drink and set it on my table frustrated. "Ya well what if I had a girl over or something or wa-"

"Oh shit you got someone over you didnt tell me al-"

"No stop, I don't! But stop sneaking up on me its fucking annoying"

"I didn't sneak up? when the curtains are open that normally means everything is fine and whats your problem if anything you always said to use the window when I come over? I wasnt planning on staying long'' She said now irritated.

"Well maybe I don't always fucking want you around you know how annoying you get, and irritating like god just leave people alone for once! Its not everyone else's fault you got attachment issues!" I yelled immediately regretting it. Her eyes went soft and any happy energy she had in her, left...all because I got defensive over nothing. I could tell I hurt her bad.

"Fine you want me to stop coming through the window...fine" She said walking past me to the front door. "Shit Winnie come on I didn't mean it-"

"You didn't mean what! That you have a problem with me? That you think i'm annoying and irritating?" She said angry walking out the front door.

"Winnie stop" I walked out following her.

"Look im sorry alright I-" She then slammed the car door shut on me and left. I didn't feel bad but I knew I did something wrong. Like everything else I screw things up.

Winnies POV
I drove off in the car but I didn't go home. I drove to an empty parking lot and just that trying not to cry. I knew everything he said was true. It just hurt that the one person I trusted threw it back at my face. That the one person I trusted again thought of me in that way. All I wanted to do was go over and share some exciting news and bring him a starbucks drink. He always said if the curtains are open and the windows unlocked and hes home always use the window. Eventually I did drive back home and my mom Noticed how red my eyes were so she asked what happened but I just told her I didn't want to talk about it and went upstairs. I skipped dinner and just went to bed. The next morning was Saturday I got up and did some chores and went back upstairs to stay on my phone and watch TV.
