Were we ever just friends?

What is happening to me?

It has been a week since graduation, I haven't spoke to any of the boys I have called them but every time I get voice mail.
I texted Michael and he said that they were hanging out with Elissa and Jade, he said I was welcome to come as he missed me.
Honestly I missed him to, however I missed Luke more.
I haven't spoke to Luke, I have seen him as we live close together. when I see him it's just full of awkward silence and I normally just turn and walk the other way.
I really don't understand what has happened to us.

I'm regretting ever agreeing to mine and Michaels plan it seems to have made everything, how did Luke put it strange?

I sigh rolling off my couch. I trudge up to my room to get ready for work I really hate work, I'm working in the local diner just to get some extra cash for university.

I pull on a random top I have lying on the floor. my eyes almost well up when the familiar sent of Luke fill my nose. Gosh, this must be one of his shirts he must of left over here from before graduation.

I slip into some black shorts as well, it's surprisingly hot in England.
I shove my hair into a messy bun and apply a light coverage of foundation and some mascara.

Once I arrive, my cheeks are flushed red from the walk over here and I have to stop to catch my breath, Gee I'm really unfit.

I push open the door, the smell of coffee and food washes over me.

"Jess, hey!" Shaun greets me.
Shaun is probably my only other friend apart form the boys.
I met him in year 8 when we separated into groups and he was the brainiac in ours.
He would always help me when I was stuck and from then on he has always been my friend.
"Hey Shaun, sorry I'm late."
"Your not but I would get to work now table 7 are waiting."
"Okay" I smile.
I grab my apron and take a pen and pad and head over to table 7.

"Hello I'm Jess and I shall be your waitress today, are you ready to order." I say before looking up. my eyes go wide when I see the 4 faces of my best friends and 2 beautiful girls who I recognise as Elissa and Jade.Ouch. Luke normally always invites me, if they go out.
"Yes we are." Jade said in a high pitched voice.
"Emm, sure."
"I will have the pepperoni pizza." Luke mumbles not being able to look me in the eyes. I sigh and scribble that down.
"Michael, Ashton and I will have that too." Calum says with sorrow and sadness in his voice. wow maybe someone does miss me, aww I miss my little Cal-Pal too.

"Okay, and for you?" I turn to Jade and Elissa.
"We will have the salad." Elissa. Answers for them.
"You know cause some people actually care about what they look like." Jade adds looking me up and down. I nod my head and bite my lip.

"What's wrong Jess?" Shaun asks me as I quickly wipe my eyes and finish making the drinks I was suppose to be doing.
"Nothing." I said my voice breaking .
Shaun didn't push further he just wrapped his arms around me. I sighed into him and hugged him back, feeling better for some human contact.

"Here you go." I say placing there food down on the table.
"Thank you." Ashton mumbles between mouth fulls of food.
I go to walk off when someone grabs my arm.
"Jess why don't you join us?" Mikey asks.
'I don't know." I mumble
"Oh come on please, why would you want her to join us? Mikey baby don't you think we're a bit to good for her." Elissa adds batting her eye lashes at him.
I scoff and roll my eyes, Michael slumps his shoulders. Trust me at this moment any emotion I had towards him is long gone.

"Shouldn't you be working?" Luke snaps.
"Go away don't you think if we wanted you here, we would have invited you." Elissa fake smirks.

"Why are you wearing my shirt?" Luke mumbles all the venom gone from his voice as he sees my eyes full of sadness at how mean my friends are being.
"I don't know, sorry enjoy your meal." I mumble before running out the shop I don't care if I'm suppose to be working, Shaun will
Cover for me. I can't believe them I have know them for at least 6 years. do they not want to be friends with me any more? we were ever friends?
