SKYLAR

My Phone rang again as I unlocked the garage, I didn't know why it was locked because the light was on, which meant my boys were here. The shop was closed, again, why ? it's always open when someone's here ...

' Skylar, Gabe here, I'm just checking on you,, you never really answered my message. ' Shoot I forgot, I have so many things on m head that I even forgot to answer one of my best friends ....  

' God Gabe I'm so so sorry, I'm .. I sorry. I just have so many things on my mind that I totally forgot ..... ' Shit I'm neglecting my only friend ... wow, that sounds pretty pathetic. 

' Hey, hey no problem, calm down. What's bothering you? ' That's Gabe, it doesn't matter if I've been fùcking rude, he'll always take care of me, asking what's wrong and finding a solution to my problems.

' I'll come early tonight and I'll tell you there. ' I'm really not in the mood to tell everything over the phone.

' Okay ., see you tonight. Bye. ' The line went dead after that.

During the conversation with Gabe I went inside and opened the door to my little office and put my bag there. The "open" sign for the shop was still here so no one even bothered to prepare. I walked to the working part of the garage where the lights were on but no one was there.

They'll be at the chill room.

When I entered the chill room all the members of my gang were sitting on the couch, which was actually way too small for them. They must've cramped themselves on there to look badass but it just gave a really funny look.

' What are you all doing there ?' I laughed, because come on, who wouldn't laugh if they saw 3 ( I now in the beginning of the story I had 4 gang members, Justin, Ryan, Jake and Carter but I'm leaving Carter out. Sorry. )  muscled guys sitting on a way too small couch.

' We need to talk to you Skylar.' Said Justin. Oh god, him being serious is something extremely rare, I don't think I've experienced it more than 5 times in all off the years that I've known him ... so this is not good.

' Yeah, sit down pleas.' Ryan this time. There was a chair situated right in front of them and of course, I was supposed to sit there, who else.  It was Ryan who told me the story.

' So for several weeks now Justin and I have been noticing some tensions around here. Ever since the accident Sky had, the gang isn't the same as it used to be. I mean, you guys almost haven't talked in 2 months. What the hell happened ? ' He probably wasn't done talking but my temper kicked in and I cut him off.

' Ask Jake, he's the one being the àsshole over here. ' I felt the ager build up in me, you could almost cut through the awkwardness between me and Jake. There was something unreadable in his eyes, which is pretty new for me, I always know what's up with Jake. He's like my brother but the last months ... he's been a stranger living beside me. I mean I can't believe how distant he's been, and now there's nothing but anger and the unknown between us.

And I absolutely hate it.

' calm down Skylar, we don't want you exploding now, we just want to talk to you. ' Justin said before Ryan could continue.

' So, as you said Sky, we indeed asked him what's up. Because come on, you were best friends and suddenly ...  that's all gone, and for what ? Well that's what we were triggered to find out. So we stalked you both and found some pretty interesting things.' Shit, I hope they didn't find out my secret, they're not ready to know ....

' We found out that you both really need to talk in private, Jake will explain the last things you need to know. ' That was it, after saying that they both left. I didn't hear them taking their keys so they must've stayed to work on the cars.

' What do you have to say.' I asked rather rude...

' Will you please listen, just listen to me without interrupting me and making fun of me, or become mad or something like that. Because everyone know you have a terrible temper and I really don't want to be the victim of that. '

 'Euhm, okay , start talking ... I'll shut up. '

' I think it became clear to me when we hung out in the park a year ago. We spent the whole day together, and no bad news came and everything was just perfect. We were perfect. Ever since I've been paying a lot more attention to you, we became closer and closer and I was just crazy for you. I was so happy that everything was perfect and even though you were still a mystery to me, I was dying to figure out more and more about you.

I just couldn't grasp why you would be so secretive about everything.  But that just lured me in more, I want to spent day and night with you, I wanted to be your knight in shining car, and I thought that all could finally become reality when I stopped your first anger attack. After that you trusted me the most, you showed some kind of respect to me you didn't show to anyone else and I loved it.

It made me feel so special, it made me feel like the feelings I had for you were mutual. That you liked me just as much as I like you and I would do anything for you. I never looked at one girl, except from you, because to me, you already were my girl. The one I wanted to spent all of my time with .

And then it all happened, Connor came into your life. He crushed my dreams of ever having you as my girl. Because I can see the look in your eyes when you look at him, it's the same way I always look at you.

With love. And there's nothing you can do about it but accept it. but I'm asking you to ignore the growing feelings for him because he's bad for you. the only person that's worth being your boyfriend is me. It's me who's always taken care of you, it's me who's always been there for you, not him !!

So I'm asking you to choose me, start a life with me. Become my girlfriend, my wife, the women who will carry my kids...

I will give you absolutely everything you want because...

I love you Skylar Callaway. '

...
