I smiled down at my phone, recognizing that Brynn had just agreed to meet me for lunch. She was really giving me a second chance, and a good one at that. It was cold outside, so I threw on my sweatpants and headed out the door. My hotel was only a few miles from Brynn's house, so I went and grabbed a Gatorade, gulping it down as I pulled into her driveway.

There was another car in the driveway, but I thought it could be her aunt. I thought she worked morning, though. I shrugged and turned off the car, knocking on the door. There wasn't a response, so I opened the unlocked door. Brynn must have unlocked it before I came, I knew she always kept the door locked. The sight I saw disgusted me.

"What is this?" I asked, more like yelled at the two on the couch. Brynn squealed and turned towards me. The guy's eyes got wider, more panic filling his face with every second.

"Aaron, its not-" I just put my head down, making her stop. I didn't think she was that kind of girl, which was the exact reason I was attracted to her.

'This was a mistake," I said bluntly, not letting a tear even try to come close to my eye. Yes, I was hurt. But not enough to cry. I am not going to cry over a girl whom I barely know. Even with her eyes piercing into me, I didn't crack. I'm not that kind of guy.

"Dude, it's all my fault. Brynn didn't kiss me back. I kinda... forced her to kiss me." She shot this guy a glance.

"Forced?" I asked, quirking an eyebrow. How do you force someone to kiss you? They can say no or pull back.

"I had my hand behind her head." I stared at Brynn, making her look down. Something told me I couldn't trust this.

"I'm not stupid," I stated, turning around.

"Aaron!" Brynn called after me. I turned around, seeing this guy giving me an apologizing stare. I stared right on back, but not in an apologetic way.

"Don't lie to protect her. I'm not going to hurt or anything." I walked out, hearing Brynn hop away from the guy and run before I shut the door. Before I could get to the first step, the door was open. I whipped towards her, staring at her disbelievingly. "How did you-"

"Track," she answered, not even close to being winded. She had been on the other side of the huge room. I sighed and looked at the ground. At least the ground didn't lie to me and is always there for me to hold me up. I should really date the ground.

"I didn't lie," she said, reading my mind. I looked up at her.

"So why were you kissing that guy?"

"Kellan came over without me knowing. I left the door unlocked for you then went to brush my teeth. When I came down he was sitting on the couch, staring at me. He motioned for me to go sit down next to me and I did. He asked me how we were, and I said good. He kept looking into my eyes then just, kissed me. I tried to pull back, but he put his hand on the back of my head and his grip tightened with every second. I wasn't kissing back and he was stupid for thinking I would. I like you, Aaron. You're my first boyfriend, and that means a lot to me. I think I may   love you."

I guess the security guards by my eyes quit, cause they sure didn't stop the criminals known as tears. They welled up in my eyes, taking my pride with them. I guess I am that kind of guy.
