I was chilling in my room. I am 17 and a senior at high school. I am just a typical kid. I have friends, do ok at school and love bands. In particular, a band from school. Well, the boys in it are from my school. I have been best friends with the drummer for as long as I can remember. This meant that I became a friend of the band by association. I would sometimes go to the band practice, depending on what I had going on that day.
Thursday afternoon, and it was after school. As I got out of my car and headed to Spencers garage, an arm was slung around my neck. I felt his hot breath on my neck. I closed my eyes at the sensation, quickly, then looked at him and smiled.
"Hi." He said.
"Hi." I replied.
"You good?"
"Yea, are you?" He sighed.
"Well, not really. There's something that I want to discuss with y-."
"Brendon!" We heard and turned around to see Ryan and Brent coming up the driveway. Ryan hugged me, and we all went into the garage. Oh yea, there's something that I should have told you. Ryan is currently my boyfriend. I fell in love with him when I first met him. We have been together for about 3 months now. We have dates and stuff. We haven't gotten past the making out stage phase of our relationship. Ryan seems like he's not interested in taking our relationship to that step. I know he's no virgin because neither am I. I know for certain the other 2 boys aren't either.
We entered the garage, and Spencer was just coming through from the main house.
"Hey, guys." He said. We al0 greeted him back. I sat on the couch that was in there as the guys got set up for practice. I made a start on my homework as they counted into their first song, Build God, then we'll talk. My foot tapped along to the song as I did maths.
I could feel somebody staring at me. I looked up, and it was Brendon. He winked at me, and I smiled back. The interaction didn't go unnoticed by Ryan. I carried on with my homework. By the time they got to, I constantly thank God for Esteban. It was done. I put my books away and listened to them practice. Ryan kept throwing me weird looks and wouldn't keep eye contact with me. Wtf?
I went into Spencers kitchen and helped myself to a soda. The band stopped playing to have a break. Ryan came through. He still wouldn't look at me.
"Ryan? What's wrong?" I asked. Ryan also got a soda out.
"You and Brendon." He said.
"What about us?"
"Are you fucking him?" Ryan blurted out. My face was aghast with what he just said. At this point, Brendon, Spencer, and Brent came in. The silence was awkward and tense. Ryan stormed back out of the kitchen.
"I guess that answers my question!" He yelled back over his shoulder. I sat down at the kitchen table. Spencer put a hand on my shoulder.
"Ryan, h-he just accused me of fucking Brendon." I said to Spencer. I then realised that there was silence again in the kitchen. Brendon and Brent's conversation came to an abrupt halt when I said this. I was shaking with shock. Ryan walked back through.
"Oh, and in case you were wondering, yes, we are over!" I cried. "You cheating on me with someone who is meant to be a friend!" Brendon got off the kitchen counter and walked towards Ryan.
"Ryan, there's nothing going on between me and Lulu." Brendon put a hand on Ryan's shoulder. They walked out of the kitchen. I was still crying. Spencer put an arm around me and Brent sat at the table and held one of my hands.
I didn't know what else to do, so I went home. As I collected my things, Brendon and Ryan were talking on the couch. I was still crying.
"I need my bag." I said to Brendon. He lifted his ass and I pulled my bag out. I left the garage without another word and drove home.
