15-Reconcilation
Nick's pov
I'm still mad over earlier but I still go to the party. It's not like I have a choice. I always have to go. At least Ezra won't be here since he has a work shift on Fridays.
He hasn't apologized nor did I. I won't apologize for that. I was stating my honest feelings. I needed to get it out. It wasn't the brightest choice but I still had to.
It's not even like I will be able to talk to him at the party either or else the guys will ask questions. I guess I'll mainly hang out with Taylor because I'm still kind of mad at the guys.
This time around this party is at a random house so I don't know whose house it is. I get in and immediately notice the guys, Livia, Taylor and Maryka?
Huh, she's with us now? Awkward...Through. Judging at her proximity to Dominic I guess not.
Regardless, before they have a chance to mention what I said earlier, I take ahold of Taylor and don't even notice.
"Taylor!"
"Woah, what's going on? Why you're shouting my name?"
"Nothing happened with the gang, I just want to talk to you."
"Me? Why? What is it?"
"Let's go talk in private. It's serious what I have to say."
"Oh, ok"
We walk around the crowd. We decide to opt for the washroom after realizing there's nowhere else to go to. I don't want to talk about the two people screwing in the bedroom.
I close the door.
"What is it...?"
"Remember when I told you I like guys?"
"Yeah?"
"I'm dating Ezra."
"What?!"
"Shh"
"Sorry..." She smiles apologetically.
"It's for real but we had a nasty argument earlier."
"Woah...that's a lot of information to take in."
"Yeah, I know but I felt like I should tell you."
"Huh? Why is that?"
"Ezra thinks we are too close. Everyone thinks we are a thing."
"Oh...and that's bad?"
"Yes, I can't let him think that and by the way don't tell anyone that. Only my brother knows."
"I swear I won't."
"Good thanks."
"So he thinks we're too close..."
"I know...annoying."
"I'll take my distance from you."
"No!" I take her by the arms to make her understand.
"Huh?"
"Let's act like we always do but not too close either. Too close contact makes them think we are dating."
"Yeah.."
"Can you do that?"
"Yes.."
"Thanks, you're the best Taylor!"
I hug her and she reluctantly hugs me back. For once, she doesn't blush anymore. I think
she officially moved on from me.But now I don't know if things will be good with Ezra or not. I hope things will be fixed between us.
