I Love My Brother's Best Friend

Maybe I Was Wrong

Dedicated to @Jazmine1971. She always votes and comments!!! She's awesome.

It's been 4 days. The longest I've ever gone without hitting my "best friend" up. I just wish she could see how she always messes up. She'll just apologize and of course I forgive. I already apologized for leaving her at the hotel stranded. I was wrong, but so is she. You don't just cut someone's hair. She knows how I like to switch it up and style it differently even when she does it. So why go and cut a strand of it.

Maybe I just seriously am over reacting though. I should at least take it in to consideration. My hair will grow back. I just don't want to be judged. I've been bobby pinning it and trying to smooth it out. It just won't budge and that's my problem. She doesn't even take what I might do to her in consideration. She was being childish which isn't new. I've put up with it for years. Like in freshman year, so I was sleeping in Mrs. Jefferson's class, which she did all the time. Of course I'd cover for her, but the one day I do, she plays a joke on me and I get after school detention for 2 weeks.

She felt awful because later on I told her that I didn't sleep well that night because of my parents arguing. She will never understand though. All her childish actions have never been jokes in my eyes.

" Hey baby girl" I said as I hugged Liz. I felt awful about what happened so I invited her to get lunch with me.

" Hey sweet girl" she said back as we took our seats. I jumped right in. " I'm so sorry about Florida, I was pissed off and I just wanted to get away, but I left you alone and you did nothing wrong" I said quickly as she smiled.

" It's fine, I'd honestly be mad too. I told her not to do it. I was like draw on her face, but don't mess with her hair" I laughed at her statement.

" At the same time I feel like I'm over reacting. I mean eventually it will grow" I said as I sipped my drink.

" You want my honest opinion. I don't think you give a damn about the strand of hair. It's the fact that your so fed up with the way she acts toward you. Of course you guys have your days when your like best friend goals, but for those to last you need to stick it out and wait for her to come to you and just talk about everything you don't like then say what you do. Kiss and make up" she said as I smiled.

" Your a genius and you totally get me girl friend" I said as the breeze picked up. " I have my days" she said as she subconsciously checked her watch.

" I have to go, call me if you ever need to talk" she said as she literally ran to her car. Weird. That's a understatement. She's still sick. I slowly caught up to her just as she was driving away.

" Liz is everything okay" I asked as I saw a tear fall from her eye swiftly. I jumped on the passenger side and hugged her as they just flowed.

" No Riley they aren't, I feel like your brothers tired of me. I'm not his wife anymore. I'm a fragile object" she said as I wiped her eyes.

" He's not tired of you. while you were in a coma you should have actually heard and saw what he did. He's just scared. I know my brother and he's never loved anyone as much as he loves you. That's a promise" I said as she brightened up a bit.

" Your a life saver and a great friend. Lucy really is dumb" she said as I laughed and groaned. " You heard that" I said as she nodded.

" I have to go, but thanks again" she said as I hopped out and she drove off. I just really needed a hug from one person who always keeps me smiling.

I pulled up outside my house and I sighed as I saw her car in the driveway. I thought I was ready to handle this, but I'm regretting it. As I opened the front door I heard arguing between Lucy and Ashton.

They immediately got quiet when I got in the room.

" Oh no, carry on I just wanted to hear" I said as Ashton kissed my forehead. "You two should talk" he said and I knew instantly something was wrong with him, but I let it slide.

"So what do you have to say, you can go first" I said as she sighed. "I'm sorry for cutting your hair. It was wrong" she said as I raised my eyebrow. "That's all, well I've already apologized and I'm also sorry for over reacting my hair will grow back enventually. Please don't get a offended.....but your childish Lucy....you need to grow up a little bit I feel like that's your problem" I said as her face turned red a little.

"Are you a certified therapist" I couldn't even answer, she cut me off. "No I didn't think so, so check yourself before you start to call out other peoples faults, Little Miss Perfect. Perfect house. Perfect reputation, Perfect Boyfriend, Perfect Life. If you knew me you'd know I'm just jealous" she said as I laughed a little.

" I'm not perfect your a hyprocrite, I just respect others and try to grow through all aspects of life. My life isn't perfect, my parents weren't here for the majority of it" I said as she groaned.

"Riley your showing a whole need side of colors. Where's my bubbly, carefree, nice best friend" she said as I inhaled.

"She's still here, she's just growing up and tired of putting up with certain things" I said as she copped an attitude.

"So now I'm a thing your tired of" she said as I clapped my hands. "Bravo Lucy, you got one thing right. It's like we are changing and clashing at the same time. You know I love you, but I'm tired of the bull. I'm freeing myself so either do something about it or leave" I said as I grabbed my green tea and walked out.

I hope Ashton's okay. I don't know what could possibly be wrong. He's never really liked Lucy, but I'm pretty sure there's another reason for his awkward behavior.

I slowly marched upstairs to find Ashton punching a hole in the wall. I ran over and hugged him from behind.

"Baby what's going on" I said as he sighed and pulled away. " God damn it Riley, I should leave. I love you and I can't hurt you. I'm so sorry, but I need to get out of here" he said as multiple tears streamed down my face. He kissed me gently and left the room

I have lost two of the most important people in my life in one day what are the odds.
