I wandered downstairs, looking down at my phone screen as my friend rambled on about life back in Nevada. I rolled my eyes with a laugh, quickly sliding passed the group of teenagers in the hall.
"Sam didn't do that, that was Niall, I know that because Sam's brother told her that Niall tried to get with Jake's girlfriend, Maisie. Right?" I sighed, dropping my phone onto the. kitchen counter and I rummaged through the fridge in search of food.
"No, no, Niall told me Sam's brother tried to get with Jake's new girlfriend. Not last months, Hannah, I think. It was...oh what was her name...?" I closed the fridge and moved to look through the cabinets. "Avery! Niall said her name was Avery."
"Niall said Sam's brother did it with Avery? But Sam's brother said Niall did it with Hannah?" I hummed, closing the cabinets and heading back over to my phone. "Wait, but I thought Avery was dating Liam??"
"Liam who?"
"I think she said he lived away, like they're long distance."
"Which Liam, dumbs?" She blew a raspberry and shrugged.
"I dunno, his name was Dunbar or some shit, went to school with that kid Brett in California." I tilted my head before shaking it.
"That's the thing, I know Liam, he's dating this girl called Hayden. I thought they didn't like each other, but I guess I was wrong. So Avery must be lying, and is actually with Niall, but no one wants to admit it." I squeezed passed the group still gathered in the hallway before heading up the stairs.
"Wait, no, Maisie just messaged me."
"What'd she say?" I heard my friend gasp dramatically.
"She hooked up with Niall last night!!"
"You're fucking around, no she didn't, cause Niall's with Avery, and Sam's brother is with Maisie!"
"Unless, hear me out, Maisie found out Sam's brother cheated on her with Avery."
"How scandalous-" I gasped when someone took my phone from my hands. "Stiles! Give that back!"
"Who the fuck is Stiles? DO YOU HAVE A BOYFRIEND??"
"No! It's my cousin's annoying ass friend!!" I ripped my phone from his hand and poked my tongue out at him, only prompting him to whine at my slightly younger cousin.
"Scott! Come on! Tell her!"
"(Y/n), please try and get along."
"He's annoying-"
"He's hot!"
"Hazel!" I scolded the girl. "He couldn't be hot even if he tried." I smiled a sickly sweet to egg him on, earning a glare from him.
"Is that a bet?"
"Course not." I laughed. "You could never live up to my standards."
"Scott..." Stiles hissed as I giggled before heading up the stairs.
"God he annoys me."
"He is hot though..." I dropped onto my bed as Hazel said so, and I sighed, propping my phone up against something on my windowsill.
"Even if he is, his personality sucks. He's annoying, he's passive aggressive-"
"Sounds like you pay attention to him a lot."
"What do you mean?"
"Well, you just described two traits which are very different in each person, which means you've spoken to him enough to identify these...although..." I turned around at the sound of my door opening.
