I hate you- Chris sturniolo

Chpt 12

Chris pov:
Fuck fuck fuck. I go to the back of the carnival and sit down behind a few boxes filled with stuffed animal prizes. I can't believe that just happened.

I begin to panic as I frantically think of who to call. "Shit" I mumble. I can't call anyone. This wasn't supposed to happen. Matt would loose his shit on me and so would Nick. Ill just go back.. say I needed to use the bathroom.. no, I ran! She kissed me and I ran! What am I!? 12!? Then I remember... I'll call alahna!

"Hello?" Alahna says in a sleepy voice. "Alahna, i um, I need you to come get me!" I whisper. "Chris.. are you drunk!?" "NO! I just... something happened and I need you to come get me, okay?" I begin to text her the carnival location. "Yea um okay. Are you okay? Are you hurt?" She says while rustling through her draws I assume to find a hoodie to put on. "No I'm fine! I'm sending you the address right now." "Okay I'm on my way"

I hung up and buried my face into my hands trying to grasp what had just happened. This shit doesn't even feel real. Whyd she do that! Whyd she fuck up a good thing! About 15 minutes go bye but it felt much longer.

Alahna- I'm here.

I begin walking to the Parking lot and see mallory standing next to her car with her phone to her ear. "Fuck" this is so awkward I actually wanna curl in a ball and die.

Alahna- hurry up!

She gets into her car and pulls away. I hurry to Alahnas car and get in. I buckle my seat belt and give her a look. It's silent for a while while she drives. Alahna isn't one to meddle in business, so she didn't immediately ask questions, but after about 10 minutes she spoke up. "Chris. What happend" alahna says with a worried look on her face. "I um-" what even happened? "I don't really know yet." I say fidgeting with my fingers. Alahna  pulls into a gas station parking lot. "Be right back." She hops out of the car and walks into the gas station. I lock the car door and look down at my phone

Mallory- Chris, I'm sorry. Can we talk?

Mallory- that was so stupid of me! I read the situation wrong! Just call me please.

I turn my phone off and lean back the passenger seat while pulling my hat down to cover my eyes. I almost doze off when I hear alahna tapping on the window urging me to unlock the door. She sits down and hands me a grocery sack. I open the sack to find nerd gummy clusters, a Pepsi, a left twix, and a Red Bull. "Thank you" I say giving her a sweet smile.

She pulls the car into an empty parking lot and turns her body to face me. "Okay now really. What happened? If you want to just talk and have me listen then I won't say a word! If you wanna tell me and get my response then we can talk all night! If you just need a trusting friend who won't tell anyone if you don't want them too, I'm right here." She says putting her hand on my shoulder.

"The thing is, i don't know what happened. Everything was going so good!...Too good."
She shakes her head in understanding. "Alborate" "well I cant exactly tell you what happened. Long story short, I was with this girl..." I can see alahnas eyebrow raise "go onnnn" she says smiling. "And we'll we kissed. But everything happened so fast, just a few days ago we weren't even friends! I panicked! It felt wrong, I feel guilty. Especially when people started taking photos of us. I started thinking to myself, I'm not ready for this kind of shit. So I did what any man would do,.... Run."

Alahna punches my arm. "DUMB ASS! IS SHE STILL THERE ALONE?" She says throwing her hands up almost nocking the nerd clusters out of my hands. "NO NO! She has a car! She's fine!" "What's making you feel so bad about the situation." "The fact she's not mine, she's someone else's." Alana's jaw drops "Chris. No. She has a bf!?" "NO! NO! It's so hard to explain" I say burrowing my face into my hands. "Then cut the pussy shit and tell me the whole thing, like who she is everything just so I can have a better understanding." She says taking a sip of her monster. "Okay fine but you have to swear you won't tell Nick and Matt." Alana places a hand over her heart "I swear on my life"

I tell her the whole truth. "Wow, I had a feeling it was gonna be mallory If I'm being honest.. "Shut up" I laugh "i mean shit it was only a matter of time! I mean the tension oh my god.. it always killed me!" I shake my head and she laughs "no but seeing.. I think you need to sleep on it, everything moved fast so.. I understand your actions.. but like.. yikes!" That embarrassing pit in my stomach comes back "ugh I know I know!" "It's okay... your fine" she says with a reassuring smile.

We get home and I think alahna for the ride. I go up stairs and I hit the bed and the only thought that runs through my head is, school is going to be a nightmare tomorrow.
