The Neighbor

A Little Too Much

" What the f**k were you thinking" Alex yells. I pick up my pace as I walk.

" I was thinking maybe you would stop bugging me" I yell back.

" You are so stupid, how could you not know that he was in a gang" He laughs. He decided to walk me home from school because he ran to school this morning and I didn't have a ride.

" I don't need your escort" I say.

" Yeah you do, because you don't have the MENTAL CAPACITY TO MAKE A GOOD DECISION" He yells the last part. Okay rude. What kind of nerve does this guy have?

" I do have the mental capacity to make my own decisions. I already told you I thought that dating him would drive you away" I scream, walking across the grass.

" Really, did you think that through? You start dating another guy, I give up or you start dating another guy, I fight to win you over" He laughs.

" You really are a great actor, Alex Hayes" I laugh.

" What"

" You really had me believing you care about me for a second there" I laugh at my own idiot like thinking.

" I do care, because..." He stops himself. I scoff at this.

" Alex, you say you care and you tell me you care, but really you don't. I know you don't. You couldn't careless. You just want sex. If you did care... Well I don't know what you would do, but maybe you would show it" I yell. I open the door and run inside of my small house. I yell for my mother, who clearly isn't home from work yet. I decide to call Destinee. I need a friend to talk too. I really need a friend to talk to.

I plop myself onto the couch and pull out my phone. I scroll through my contacts. I see Destinee's name on the screen. How am I going to talk to her about this? She is just going to say I told you so. I decide call Braden. I click on her name and wait for her to answer. Nothing. I play my music. A little to much, by Shawn Mendes starts playing. My all time favorite song. I know I say that about like every song. But this one really is the best song ever. I walk upstairs and I close the blinds, which doesn't really make a difference. I go online and I buy something. Something amazing.

It's been two days and I have avoided Alex in the halls. I avoid Derek, Scott, Dyaln, and Tyler. All of Alex's friends. I hop up the steps to my front door. I see the box. The box I have been waiting for. My new gift to myself. I grab the box and run up the stairs. Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes.

!!Alex Hayes!!

I look into Brooke's room and I see that the curtains are down. Not even like on the curtain thing. They are down. I see her glance at me and then hold up a dark purple cloth. Within seconds, the windows are shaded by the dark purple felt. Something I can't see through. She didn't just block my view, she blocked my site.

I saw the hurt on Alex's face as I pulled my new curtains closed. He looked like someone had just killed his mother. I thought all he wanted was, well you know. I just hope that I didn't actually hurt him. He's a playboy. I don't know why he looks so upset. I hear something hit the window and I know it's Alex.

" What's up" I ask casually.

" Avoiding me, ey"

" Yeah maybe just a little"

" And why is that"

" Because I simply don't like you"

" Why is that"

" Honestly Alex. You played my best friend. Do you realize how much ice cream I had to buy"

" Nope"

" A lot. I don't get it"

" Get what"

" Why you play girls. Why you leave us heartbroken?"

" I just am trying to find the right one" He laughs. He has got to be kidding.

" I am not going to be a victim of your crimes" I slam the window closed and storm into the darkness of my room. This isn't some cheesy love story. I am not falling for the bad boy... I hope.
