Chapter 11

How could she. She's a witch, no even better a wench. She knew how I felt about him! I stood there in shock which turned to anger and embarrassment. I turned and slammed the door like it was my bedroom door and I was mad at my parents or something. I walked home thoughts all over my head, I guess I'll never really get over Jared. I shouldn't even feel this way, what about Dev?

It started to rain on the short walk home. Yeah, weather really does predict my mood.

School started soon which means; cute new boys, new teachers, new bestfriend, new life. I just have to get through a couple more days until paradise of not seeing a wench or Jared. Did they have a thing? Ef, this I'd like a thing with Jared. Maybe he's becoming a player..

I arrived home in a matter of minutes, which wasn't enough thinking time for me. I ignored my family and went and took a shower. Tomorrow was school shopping. Or a day I try on a bunch of clothes and feel insecure because I'm not as skinny as others, or that Regina George group at school.

These girls could be models, they have ugly faces but drown themselves in MAC makeup to make them look 'pretty'. Have pin straight hair, the main Regina has brown hair and a face like an oval. She's getting a nose job soon because her nose is HUGEEE! like you can land an airplane on that thing. She probably had fun digging for gold when she was younger. Did I mention they're all skinny? They're obsessed with skinny, like Regina will only eat 3 Oreos a week. Like I will eat the whole thing in a day. Erica might as well be one since she is as snobby as them.

I need a plan to take them down. I would love some help, but I don't have a bestfriend anymore. Guess I'm on my own until Dev gets here.

The next morning came and I was off to the mall. Not the ghetto ones that are like local, but the better ones that are like kinda far away. I had all day, so I hitched a ride down there on a bus. By myself. Alone. I could drive but I'm only 15 and I'm getting my license this year, well next month.

Even though I don't like shopping that much because my feet tend to hurt like hell, I was hoping that this would take my mind off everything.

I think I was more mad at Erica than I am at Jared. I'm not even supposed to like him.

*one new text message*

Speak of the devil.

-Not coming over today?-

No Jared, I don't want to go over to see you mAke out with another girl. I decided not to reply, he's just him..

After 30min of stupid shopping I got yet another text from him which read;

-just gunna read and not reply? I'll be at the beach.-

I replied with a simple text.

-k-

Since I can't find anything in the stores that everyone loves to shop in I guess I'll just go to TJ max across the street. Besides that's where I get most of my clothes anyways.

While I was rummaging through clothes to find something I like I bumped into a fella.

"Oops, sorry my bad."

"It's alrig-hey."

It was a man, in the women's section..

"Oh, hi" I said shyly.

"Don't you go to Westbrook?"

"Yeah!"

"Me too, aren't you one of Jared's friends?"

"Uh, kinda."

"I've seen you around with him. I'm Tyler."

"Lena, nice to meet you!"

I gave him a smile, he has a nice voice that makes you feel welcomed even though we were in a store. He kindly slipped me one too.

"Wanna catch something to eat with me?"

"Sounds great, let me just buy this and I'll met you outside?"

Weird knowing that I'm going out to eat with a guy that I just met.

I approached the tall guy with green orbs, and walked down to a Chinese buffet.

"2 please." Tyler said to the nice waitress.

We followed her and took off our light jackets and headed towards the buffet. When we came back, I asked him a question that I've been pondering about.

"Why did I find you in the women's section? Where you shopping for your girlfriend?"

"Ha, yeah I wish," he played around with his food. "I was shopping for my mom."

"That's cute." I quickly said before shoving a mouth full of food into my mouth.

He laughed and said, "No that's cute."

" I have that affect!"

He smiled and we finished our food.

"Thanks for lunch!"

"Anytime, are you walking?"

"Nope" I said popping the 'p', "bus today."

"I could take you home, I'm going to Jared's anyway."

"Really? Thank you!"

"Like I said, anytime." He looked back and gave me a grin.

"Who was that attractive man?" My mom said as I walked in. She was spying through the shades of the front door window.

"Tyler, one of Jared's friends I guess."

I was actually kinda excited for school now because I got some cute clothes, not name brand but they can even be cuter than that.

*two new text messages*

Both from Jared. Awesome.

-are you coming over.-

-Tyler is over. Heard you met him. Coming over?-

Ehh, well nah. I'll pass.

After trying on the LOADS of clothes I bought, I called Devein.

"Hello?"

"Hi."

"Hey lena, how are things?"

"Alright, when are you coming down? I need something fun to do."

"I don't know anymore, my dad got a job here now so I think we are staying. I'm sorry babe, I'll meet you somewhere this weekend! Me, you, Jared can go to an arcade or the beach after school on Friday?"

"Me and him aren't the closest anymore."

"Oh."

"Yeah, but we will see. I'll talk to you later!"

"Text me love,"

"Will do."

"Love you Lena!"

"I love ya too."

We texted for a bit while I sat in my room doing seriously nothing. I plugged into my iPhone and took my brush and danced in my mirror to one direction Take Me Home album.

Eh, bad chappie. But I updated. :) what do you guys think about this Tyler dude? Who misses Devein? Tell me what you think so far!

School starts in the next chapter. Guess who's in Lena classes!?
