He Only  Kinda Likes Me

by beeyotch

"Know what? Your relationship with Adam is so freaking weird," Moira commented and I just rolled my eyes at her. "What? It's true!" she said.

"It's not," I answered. "Your relationship with Brody is more disturbing if you'd ask me." She immediately blushed after I mentioned his name. I really can't understand how the whole fubu thing works! I mean, how in the love of all that's holy can you have sex with someone and not develop any feelings? Is that even possible because in the world I live in, it doesn't exist! When you're with someone and the physical connection is as intimate as that, one way or another, feelings will bloom.

"Well, whatever. At least it's not as confusing as you and Adam," she retorted after she turned into an overripe tomato. I threw my hands up in the air. "We're best friend! What's so confusing about that?" I asked, slightly irritated. I was growing tired of all these question about Adam and I. I mean, can't they just let that issue rest? Adam and I were good. We hang out; we're having fun. Why do all people feel the need to complicate things between us?

Moira shrugged. "Fine," she said. "Whatever you wanna believe in."

I didn't talk to her the whole lunch. On a normal day, I would be okay with people questioning what's the real deal between Adam and I but today, I didn't feel like it. I was just so cranky all day and I believe that the reason was someone named Piper Fisher.

"Now I get it."

"What?"

Moira pointed at Adam whose arm was draped over Piper when they entered the cafeteria. "Why you're so irritated all day. Figured."

I rolled my eyes. "Please. It's not my business whom Adam dates. He's a big boy and besides, he's just my best friend."

"Sure, sweetie. Keep telling that to yourself," she said before she helped herself over her soda. 

I tried to focus on what I was eating but my traitor eyes wouldn't let me eat in peace! I fought the urge to pull them out of their sockets when they made me look at Piper who's acting all sweet and cuddly to Adam!

"God, Spencer, stop with the murderous eyes," Moira said while simultaneously rolling her eyes at me. "You're the one who told me that you're just friends with Adam, right?" she said and I nodded—my eyes still focused on Piper who's now feeding Adam. "So suck it up. She's the girlfriend; you're the best friend. There's the difference, babe. Learn to suck it."

Moira was right. I was the best friend. Heck, for almost ten years I had been Adam's best friend! I've seen him without any teeth, I've seen him running around with his underwear on his head, I've seen him crying, I've seen him when he first won his soccer game... God, I've been with him all his life.

But I was just that. I was just the best friend.

When the bell rang, I stood up and had to drag my feet. I was feeling down the entire lunch. I get it. I mean, why wouldn't I? Every time Adam's got himself a girlfriend, it's like I don't exist. I mean, yes, he still calls me every now and then but he's not there as much as he normally does. I understand it... I want to understand it but a part of me hates it.

Adam's a really sweet guy. I was only his best friend but I receive flowers on a random day. He gives me chocolates when he feels like it. He gives me a ride to school everyday (except when he's got a jealous and insecure girlfriend because he'd tell Carter to pick me up instead). He's just too sweet for his own good... and I can only imagine how he treats his girlfriend. That must feel like heaven.
