Just Friends

Meghan's POV:
When I walked through the front doors of the school, I marched quickly to the lunch table Bridget and I normally sat at before homeroom.

"You has no right to do that." I yelled as I set my stuff down on the table.

"What're you talking about?" She asked, mouth full of cereal she bought from the cafeteria.

"You know what I'm talking about. Ashton called me last night after your little blow out with Luke. Why did you do that? He and I are on good terms right now."

"Because it's not gonna last. At one point or another he's going to tell you he loves you again and again and it won't matter if you're friends or not because you'll end up falling for him again. Then you'll be back where we started with you crying and refusing to go out all the time." Bridget replied." I don't want that, you don't want that, and nobody needs that. I was looking out for you and letting him know what he's doing isn't right."

"By telling him that his feelings for me don't matter. I feel insanely guilty for hurting him because luke is one of the sweetest people I know regardless of what happened. He and I have made up and moved on, now so do you. I expect you to apologize to him and to me." I said.

"Fine, meghan I'm sorry... that you have become completely blinded by your feelings for Luke to see that you're wrong." When she said that I grabbed my stuff and started to walk away.

"I'll save you a seat in math!" She hollered.

"Don't bother." I snapped as I left the table.

There was a lot of tension during the classes we had together and at lunch I sat in the library with Connor leaving her, I assume, by herself.

"You two will make up and everything will be back to normal." Connor said.

"I don't know, I'm pretty mad at her. This is our first fight." I replied." She didn't have the right to do that."

"I know babe but she had good intentions." Connor sighed." We can't eat in the library forever and without Bridget, you have no one else to hangout with besides me and I work from five to nine and I'm sure your brother is sick of you hanging around their new house all the time."

"Are you trying to say that my friend circle is so small that if one leaves I become clingy?"

"You said it and I'm not agreeing but I'm also not denying." Connor chuckled as I playfully shoved him.

"Just don't worry about it. If she apologizes then we'll let it go."

During seventh period as we were packing up to go, Connor ushered at me to talk to her.

"Do you want to meet izzy for coffee?" Bridget asked me.

"Uh, I have a lot of work to do and some tests to study for so many another time." I replied." Besides I don't want to put izzy in the middle of anything."

"Meghan, I'm sorry Okay! You ditched me at lunch and I can see Connor watching us talk which means you are still mad. Come on I'm sorry, please forgive me." Bridget said.

"Fine but you have to apologize to Luke and pay for coffee." I chuckled as I grabbed my bag and we left class.

"Awe did my two favorite girls make up?" Connor asked as we walked down the hall and he wrapped his arms around our shoulders. We both gave him a look and he took his arm off Bridget." Sorry I only talk to you two girls."

"And your mother." Bridget added." Is he really a mommas boy?"

"I'll tell you later." I mumbled to her. Bridget and I parted ways down the hall leaving Connor and on the same path as always to his locker.
