We can't be friends

Chapter 1

Emery' p.o.v
"Emery! Lexie just pulled into the driveway!" My mother yelled from down stairs. I didn't even bother pushing my legs into my jeans as I rushed myself. I threw my jeans and my shoes over my shoulder, grabbed my bag and ran down the stairs. I walked into the kitchen to see Lexie talking to my mom. Lexie was sat on the kitchen bench eating toast.

"Hey Lex" I piped up. Lexie looked over and smiled before dropping her eyes to my bare legs.

"you do know we have enough time for you to put on your pants right?" She smiled amused at me. I just chuckled and walked over to her. I kissed her cheek and took the toast from her hand.

"Maybe I just wanted to see you droll over my ass" I whispered, making sure my mom didn't hear me. Lexie's eyes widened, her mouth was ajar as I giggled to myself.

Ever since Lexie told me she was a lesbian I've been making little friendly jokes here and there. She doesn't mind them.

I struggled into my jeans and ate my toast before slipping my shoes on and grabbing my bag. "Bye mommy" I kissed her cheek and grabbed Lexie's hand.

"Goodbye mrs white!" Lexie yelled loudly as we walked out the front door. We walked over to Lexie's jeep and hopped in. Without a word the car was on and we were on our way to school.

I started to think. Lexie and I have been friends since I can remember and we've never fought. Lexie is the only person that I tell my secrets to and I'm the only person she tells hers to. If I didn't have Lexie I'm not sure my life would even be this great.

"Did you do the English assignment?" Lexie asked, interrupting my thoughts. I just nodded and smiled. She smiled back and turned back to the road. Out of habit I took one of her hands from the steering wheel and intwined in with mine. I saw I hitch in Lexie's breathing but ignored it and continued to play with her hand.

We arrived at school and both got out. As usual, before entering the school Lexie had a cigarette. I didn't like the idea of her smoking but if it was getting her through things then I guess it was ok.

Once she finished we walked into school together. Right on time the bell rang and we both went to maths. Lexie was never the brightest so she was in a lower class then me, which sucked.

Lexie's p.o.v.
Maths was the most bullshit subject ever. Was I ever going to use Pythagoras? Probably not, but we're gonna learn it anyway!

I just wish Emery was in this god damn class so I had something to entertain me. I bet being in her class is so much fun. Getting to stare at her for an extra hour a day.

"Lexie what did you get for number 12?" I turned around to see my brother Jacob with a smile on his face.

"84" I smiled back. Jacob was probably my most annoying sibling but I had to love him either way. I was one of 7, the oldest was jade, then mick, then dustin, and then there was Romeo, Jacob and I (we're triplets, surprise!) and last but not least Daisy.  My family was the best, they loved me and that's all I could ever ask for.

"Thanks sis" jake went back to his work, I looked back down at my book and did one last question before the bell went. I walked out of my class to see Emery standing there waiting for me. She had a large grin on her face, she walked over to me and grabbed my hand.

"Where are you taking me?" I chuckled as she swerved and dodged people. She didn't answer me she just kept walking, we eneded up at the back of the school where I usually come to smoke. She let go of my hand and just smiled at me. I felt a little creeped out but kept laughing at her.

"What is it you crazy weirdo?" I asked poking her arm. She just squealed and pulled me into a hug.

"James Davidson asked me out"

I felt my heart drop to my stomach. This can't be happening. I pushed her out of the hug and looked into her big blue eyes "James Davidson?" I questioned. She just nodded excitedly "the same James Davidson that beat up Jacob for dating his sister?"

"Lex he said he was sorry, he even gave jake a pizza, what more could he ask for!" Emery bit her lip nervously, waiting for my approval.

"That's great Em" I tried my best to sound happy for her. "I gotta go see miss Jackson, I'll see you later" before she could stop me I ran, I ran until I couldn't breath.

Why do I feel like this? Why do I feel like she just stabbed me right in the heart? Why does it feel like I just lost her? I guess she was never mine to lose.

The rest of the day went by slowly and although I felt terrible for it I didn't wait for Emery to get out of her last class, I just left. She's a big girl she can catch the bus.
