Bittersweet

Four

Through out the morning, all I could think about was, why was that 'I love you' from all his others. Now yes, maybe I'm just overthinking this. I do that a lot; overthink things. Maybe he said it so serious and so softly because it was one of those rare serious moments that I was having with him. Yah! that has to be it. But he always finds an excuse to get out of the serious moments. Maybe- NO! Lizzy, Stop. God, make these thoughts go away. Well, God must be one fast worker because five seconds later, all I could think about was being tickled. Due to the fact Danny was tickling the heck out of me. "Danny, stop!" I say, pushing his hands away from my waist. "Sorry, you weren't paying attention to what I was saying though." he says, semi annoyed. "Well you didn't have to tickle me. Now, are you hungry?" "starved" he grabs his keys to his car and we drive straight to McDonalds where I order a 6 piece chicken nugget and a small coke and he orders the same. We head over to a corner table by the window. Away from everyone else who crowded the middle. "You know, you could be a normal person for once and like not tickle me all the dang time" He plasters a small smirk on his face. "Oh, you know I'm anything but normal." This was very true. He isn't and never will be normal. "Good point, I don't know why I said anything." I laugh as I pop a nugget in my mouth. "You're adorable" he says playfully. I feel my cheeks burn and I just know that I'm red as a freaking tomato. Why is he, out of all people having this effect on me? what the heck. "Why're you so red? dang. I was just playing." It was at this moment, I let out a breath I didn't realize I was holding. I also turn 10x more red. If that's even possible. "Don't call me adorable, I'm not a puppy" I snap harshly. His big smile turns into an even bigger frown and he looks down at his feet and whispers "Sorry." I felt terrible, but I had to cover up my real thoughts. Thoughts I'm not even going to reveal. "No, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have snapped like that. Its just that time of the month so I'm a bit more sensitive than normal." He scrunches up his face and shakes his head roughly. Like how is he not breaking his neck right now. What the hell. "Ew, you didn't need to tell me that. I'm eating for god sakes" "Aw, did I gross my immature bestie out? Oh, how I hope you can accept my apology" I say jokingly. He nods his head, roughly. We finish eating our food around the same time and we leave to go to our mutual friend, Tyler's house and also my ex. We dated for a year, I loved him and he loved  me. When he dumped me... well lets just say, sad wasn't even a word you could use for it. I was angry, upset, heartbroken.. ect.. Danny was ready to kill him for breaking my heart. And for his reasoning behind it. He thought I hung out with Danny to much, he didn't like it. He even gave me a choice, lose him... or drop Danny. I didn't even hesitate when I chose Danny. Danny and I ignored Tyler for 2 years after that.  It was just 4 months ago that I forgave him. 2 months for Danny when we got to Tyler's house he was already outside working on his car. I walked over to him and kicked his foot.The only visible part of his body at the time. He rolled out from under his car, exposing his oil covered face. "You look gross as all heck!" he rolls his eyes and jumps up from the ground. "Screw you Berton" he never called me by my first name unless of course he was angry with me. I always thought it was adorable. "When, and where?" I say smirking. Suddenly I feel strong arms wrap around my waist from behind. Danny pulls my body against his, and I realize he's angry. What the hell. I think to myself and turn myself around in his arms, and mouth the words "what are you doing?" he put his lips close to my ear and says "Not letting him have you" I smile involuntarily at this. Why did he care though? why didn't he want Tyler to have me? why is he being so dang protective? Him and Tyler are friends. "Sorry to interrupt whatever the hell this is" he says as he points at the position Danny has me in and I turn bright red. "But are you two dating?" I open my mouth to say no, but my words are nothing when Danny interrupts and says "Yes, its new. But we are greatly in love" I gasp and push myself out of his grasp and quickly say "He's joking" Tyler nods and glares at Danny. "Wow, you're still angry I hurt her. You don't want me to be close to her, or even have the chance to be with her again. Wow, way to hold a grudge" he says angrily. "You idiot. You don't deserve her. If you really loved her, you wouldn't have ever made her choose between us." Danny sounds just as angry as Tyler, if not angrier. "Get Out!" Tyler's voice booms across the garage. "Gladly" With that, he  grabs my hand and pulls me to his car. As soon as we get in he speeds off. Causing me to jut forward roughly. "Why the hell would you do that?" I yell loudly. "You're angry with me? he made yo-" "3 years ago" "how could you just forgive him? "Because Danny, he was my first fucking love. My first kiss, my first everything." he's shocked at my choice in words. I never cuss like that unless I'm extremely pissed. "I'm sorry okay, but I love you. I don't want to see you hurt over him again." Again with the love shit. "As a friend or a girl-" he cuts me off quickly, too quickly "friend, duh" He says as if it's obvious. Which it should be. "I would never date Tyler again" I say giving him the reassurance he needed. He doesn't say anything but instead just nods. He smiles and I wasn't sure why he was so happy. He knew, somewhere in his heart that I wouldn't ever date Tyler again.  Even if I wanted to. After Tyler giving me a choice between my boyfriend and my best friend, I couldn't go there again. Tyler was my past, and he's gonna stay my past.________________________________
