"I already told you that I don't want or need a boyfriend Bethany!" I tell my best friend, Bethany, for the 3rd time.

"Oh come on Hall! He likes you a lot! He's nerdy, smart, and cute!" Bethany tells me as she licks her cotton candy flavored ice cream

(Bethany and I went to the ice cream shop and bought ice cream because it is a really hot day. The paparazzi was crazy! But now we are both are walking to my house. We took the trail through the forest because no one really goes there. Except older people that don't even know who I am haha)

"That's fine. That doesn't mean I have to like him and plus I'm an actor, my life is just busy" I say, frustration flowing through me. I'm pretty sure Bethany could tell that I was getting fed up so she finally gave up

"ugh fine... I don't understand you Holland. Don't you want to be happy, have a boyfriend, go out and do more...things" she says, hesitantly as if she wanted to make sure she didn't sound rude.

"What is that suppose to mean? Go out and do more things?" I ask.

"Well...I don't know. It's just all you do is leave and act in movies or TV shows!" She blurts out and before I can say anything she continues. "All you do is move to a different state or city for a while to film.Then you come back here and do nothing with me!"

By now we both stopped walking. I can see the sad look in her eyes.

"Bethany acting is my job! And I love it! What do you expect me to do?? And I don't hang out with you all the time because you go to parties and you go with people I don't even know! You know I don't go to parties and you should know the reason" I say trying to stay calm.

"You don't know the people I go with because you don't get to know them! And I have no idea why you don't come to parties with me? We're best friends! Best friends do things with each other!" She yells.

I'm so glad that no one is at the trail today or else this would probably be all over the news...especially if someone noticed me. I kind of hate the consequences of being an actor.

"Yes we are best friends. But the reason why I don't go to parties is because I could get a call anytime for a job and I can't take the job if I'm hungover bethany" I say feeling so annoyed.

I do love bethany but sometimes she doesnt understand. She does work at burger king so how would she understand. I've always tried to encourage her to get a better job but she never listens.

"I just feel like ever since you became an actor, we haven't been spending much time" she says. As I was about to say something she cuts me off. "You know what I'm gonna go home now. You can walk yourself home. I thought we were best friends" She says all sassy and walks away. I don't say anything because I don't really know what to say...

Then I just make my way home.

A/N: This was a really short chapter but I swear after the second chapter all my chapters will be way longer!!
