Taylor
~~~~~~~
I stand there as I watch Garrett walk out of the house. I look around and see everyone looking at me, Brennen stands at the top of the stairs staring at me.
"Taylor." Lily says.
I knew what that meant. She was wondering why the fuck I was being a bitch. I didn't even have an answer to that.
I sigh before I run out of the house.
"Garrett!" I yell as I watch him get into his car.
I open the passenger door and get in as he starts the car.
"Get out, Taylor." He snaps.
"I'm sorry." I say.
He looks at me.
"You know you're really hypocritical. You yelled at me for being a selfish asshole because I didn't care about other girl's feelings but look at you now. I like you and then you go get all up on one of my best friends!" He yells.
I sigh as I look at him.
"I'm sorry, it was a bitchy thing. I didn't mean to, but Brennen is so nice." I say.
"So what? I've been so good to you!" he snaps.
I look at him and feel guilt cripple through me.
"I'm sorry." I say again.
He shakes his head and it falls silent.
I stare at him. He looked down in his lap as he fidgeted with his fingers, I looked at his face. His brown hair fell a little over his eyes and his pink lips, his perfect nose.
"Garrett." I whisper.
He looks at me and I look at his hazel eyes.
"Do you actually like me?" I ask.
He shrugs.
"Yeah." He whispers.
I can't help but smile.
"Can we be friends for now? Please." I ask.
He looks at me.
"Only if you promise not to get with Brennen," he says.
I nod.
"Sure, I don't like him that much." I say.
He smiles and nods.
I smile before I buckle my seatbelt.
"Let's go to the movies." I say
"Whatever you want, Tay-Tay." He before he backs out of the driveway.

I sit at my desk and stare at the blank doc. Again.
This was my fucking midterm and I didn't know what the hell to write. I sigh.
Shoot me.
I hear the doorbell ring and I smile before shutting my laptop and running to the door to see my mom smiling at me.
"There's my favorite girl." She says before I throw my arms around.
"Hi Mom." I say as I hug her tight.
"Come in." I say as we pull apart.
I help her pull her small duffle bag in and place it in the living room.
