Loves Me, Loves Me Not

Chapter 2

So would you say talking to him for half an hour is to long? Normally I would, but Addy and Cassie have really found a guy I can trust. Now I don't believe in love or anything like that, I'm against love, love is the reason I lost her, my twin sister, Essa, (short for Vanessa.)

Even since Essa left, I gave up on love, I loved her, she loved 'him' and he said he loved her. I refused to betray myself to feelings, I'm in no way a slut, but I am never going have a relationship. And as hard as Addison and Cassie may try to get me to fall for someone, someone as amazing as Tyler, I knew I just couldn't. He's already like the brother I've never had. In so little time, I've learnt so much about him. He's full name is Tyler Mason Greene, he's 16, turning 17 in November, where as I turned 16 in May. He's a high school drop out so he's probably isn't going anywhere, considering he dropped out year 10, not even a VCE education. He's a builder though, earns serious money and said one day, he'll build me a mansion.

He's cute, sympathetic, kind, caring, sincerer. Everything a girl looks for in a friend. Not to mention good fashion sense. He parties a lot, gets drunk a lot, used to smoke but he quit. He has a little brother and sister, they're twins.

I told him a lot about me, I'm roughly 160cm tall, he's almost 175cm. I'm called short stack for the obvious reasons. I have naturally blonde hair, sea blues eyes, and a thin but strong frame. I sing a lot, play drums, piano and guitar. My father died of cancer when I was 8, and my mum re-married when I was 13 and a half. My favorite colour is grey and my lucky number in 15.

At the moment, I was eating peppermint ice-cream from the tub, and humming Unfaithful by Rihanna to myself. I called my mum about 5 minutes ago, informing that I was spending the night at Addy's, I just got off the phone with Cassie's father telling him that Cas and I were staying at Addy's. I still hadn't told the girls about this. But to bad if they didn't like it.

I'm guessing by Addison's laughter, they were still on Skype with Tyler, I smiled to myself, 'he's really a great guy,' I thought.

Then I heard all three of them laughing.

"Told you do, Tor-Tor!" Addy called out to me, I realized I must've said that aloud, I tried to calm the blush that crept to my cheeks.

I hurried into the bathroom, and splashed water on my face, I had my hands either side of the sink, I was leaning down and I groaned, of course they had to hear me!

"Tori, are you okay?" Cassie asked, as she lightly knocked on the door twice.

"Yep," I replied quickly, popping the 'P'. "Tell Addy that we are both staying the night, I already rang our parents."

After that, I tuned out of everything, put on my relaxing playlist on my phone, and started doing stretchers on the cold tiles. This is something my counsellor has told me to do whenever life becomes to much out there, or in my head.

"Truth or dare?!" Addison repeated to me.

"Ah truth?" I answered, although it sounded like a question, it was 10:30 Monday night, are we're eating pizza and still on Skype with Tyler.

Addy rested her chin on her palm, deep in thought. "Oh I know!! What was your first thought when you saw Tyler on Skype tonight?"

Of course it was about Tyler!

"Well, I looked at his eyes first, they caught my attention. I kept thinking about how gorgeous he's eyes were." I smiled.

"Aww!" Cassie and Addison said in union.

"Truth or dare?" I asked, no one in particular.

"Dare," Tyler's voice said out of nowhere, he told us he didn't want to play, only listen.

"But I thought-"

He cut me off, and repeated, "Dare."

"Umm," I looked at the girls for support. They just nodded encouragingly, I shook my head indicating I had no idea what to say.

"I dare you to go to Victoria's Secret and asked to be measured." Addison winked at me. I rolled my eyes mouthing 'thanks.'

"But you have to film it! So we can see!" Cassie added.

"Okay, I'll go tomorrow, since I have no work." Tyler laughed. "What if they won't measure me though?"

"Beg." The word rolled off my tongue.

"Girls, off the computer, get ready for bed, you have school tomorrow." Addison's mother said, popping her head in.

"Okay," we all said.

"I'm in the shower first!" I declared before saying goodnight to Tyler.

I poked my head under Addy's king sized bed and pulled a plastic tub which I always kept here. All three of us had a tub like this at each others houses for sleepovers like these. The tub contained a toothbrush and toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, body wash and clothes of any sort. I grabbed what needed and headed into the bathroom which was down the hall.

I undressed and walked under the hot water, it burnt my skin slightly, but I didn't mind much. I let the water relax my muscles and flush my skin, I soaked my hair then washed it. I lathered my self in body wash and felt the slight raise in my skin of scars. I shuddered at the memory of how they gotten there.

I rinsed all the soap from myself, turned off the water, then folded myself into a towel. I went to the sink, brushed my hair and teeth then washed my face with 'Young,' which is a soap, freshen and moisturiser I use.

I changed into pajamas, and went back into Addy's room. I used her hair dryer, then straightened my curls with my GHD. I put a night cream under my eyes, then I pulled out some English homework from my bag and got to work.

Cassie and Addison were both showered and doing their homework also within half an hour.

"Tori, have you been using bio oil?" Cassie asked me.

I looked at my arm, "I tried it, but it didn't work."

"It be one year soon," Addy brought up casually.

"Just let it go," I snapped at her, "Don't mention it again!"

Addy and Cas sighed as I threw my books on the floor and stormed out of the room.
