"YOU GUYS KISSED?!"
Mindy yells out loud, I quickly shush her and she looks at me in disbelief.
"Yes- yes we did, but it was unintentional." I say to her, she looks at me weirdly.
"A kiss is not unintentional bae." She says as Wes comes downstairs.
"Hey guys, where's Tara?" He asks, I sigh.
"She left." Mindy says. "Ohh.." Wes says sadly as he sits down.
"What's up with you?" Mindy asks.
"He tried to kiss Tara." I say to her, Wes looks at me.
"How'd you know? Were you spying on us??" He asks.
"No, Tara told me." I say. He sighs in relief and I get a unknown call.
"Hold on guys." I say as I walk into the bathroom, locking it.
"Hello?" I say as I pick it up.
"Amber it's me, Tara."
"Oh, hey Tara." I say, trying to not show the fear in my voice.
"Uhm, can you come over to my place? I think we need to talk." She says, my heart drops. "Yeah, I think so too."
She sighs and hangs up, I put my phone in my pocket and walk out of the bathroom.
"You okay Amb?" Mindy asks.
"Yeah I'm fine, gotta go somewhere." I say to Mindy, she looks confused and I give her a look. Mindy starts to understand while Wes looks at us both, confused as fuck. I leave Mindys house and walk over to Tara's, I knock on her door gently and her mom answers.
"Uhm, hi is Tara home?" I ask,
"No, get lost." Before almost slamming the door in my face I can hear Tara.
"Wait Mom is that Amber?!" She yells, her mom looks at me.
"Are you Amber?" She asks. I nod and she lets me in, I look at Tara weirdly and she goes upstairs, soon after I follow behind her. We get to her room and she sits down on her bed, patting the side of it to signal for me to sit too.
"Uhm...hey." I say as I sit down.
"Hey." She says. We both sit in awkward silence until she speaks up.
"About yesterday.." I cut her off. "I'm sorry." She looks at me sympathetically.
"Amber, I want you to know that the kiss didn't mean anything. It was an accident." Those words absolutely shattered my soul, I felt my heart drop to my ass, literally.
"Yeah I know." I say with some sadness in my voice.
"And I'm dating Wes, I can't cheat." She crosses her arms. It's always about Wes, I swear. Wes this, Wes that. I roll my eyes and she clearly sees that I did, she looks at me disappointed, kinda like my Dad.
"I wasn't the one who kissed you, you kissed me." I say, Tara sighs.
"Yes, I know. It was a mistake, okay? We were both tired and I felt lonely." She says, I scoff.
"Is that the best excuse you can come up with? 'We were both tired and I felt lonely.' You knew what you were doing Tara." I say.
"It didn't mean anything Amber, please-"
I cut her off once again. "It meant something."
I say, getting up and gathering my stuff. Tara
looks at me confused, "wait-"
I walk out of her room, slamming the door behind me. I look over to her Mom who's passed out on the couch with wine bottles in her hands, I sigh and take the bottles out of her hands, then throwing them in the trash. I position her upright to make it look like she fell asleep. I don't want Tara to think her moms passed out drunk. I leave the house to go to my house, I storm up to my room and I try falling asleep before my dad could get home. It works and I end up taking a big nap before getting woken up by...My Dad.
"Where the hell were you last night?!" He yells at me, I look at him in fear.
"M-Mindys house." I say, he grunts angrily.
"Were there any boys there?!" He asks. "No!" I yell. "Don't lie to me Freeman.."
He gets closer to me.
"No- no im not lying!" I say, he breathes loudly and throws down my table before exiting my room. I fucking hate my dad, ever since Mom's left he's been an absolute asshole. I lie to my friends and say that I have a Mom so they don't feel bad, only one person knows about my dad and stuff and that's Mindy. I can trust Mindy, I've known her since I was 3. I start to cry softly into my pillow, curling up into a ball and thinking about the kiss me and Tara shared. It meant something, I know it did. It was full of passion, love, comfort, security. Everything a beautiful relationship holds. But of course, stupid ass Wes had to get in the god damn way.
Goddamn It.
