Out of my Mind

Chapter 12

Sorry there might me a little profanity in this chapter (darn my sailor's mouth) but its still an important one. I wouldnt say theres a lot of profanity but i used it so i wanna warn ya

 I turned off my phone when I was in the car with Melody. I didn't want anyone trying to reach me, especially Harry. I can't believe he would do this. One of my best friends comes into town for 48 hours and he is already all over her. I mean, yeah, it's none of my business to tell him who he can hang out with because we're not together. But it is my business to at least know before hand. He's one of my best friends for pete sake. A quick call, or even a text would've been great. I can almost guarantee that Bri mentioned me to him when they first started talking to each other. 

Is he embarrassed to be my friend? Well he did act like he didn't know me when he picked us up from the bowling alley. Maybe it was just a show for Briana. But why would he have to put up a show for her.

Ugh. I rub my temples as I feel a major headache coming in. I slowly make my way to the bathroom down the hall to get a couple Tylenols.

On my way back to my room I don't bother turning on the lights because it would only turn my headache into a migraine. I crawl into bed and wait for tomorrow to come. Yay, more school. I think as sarcastically as I can. 

*************

When I get to Language arts I am assigned to my partner for the project. It's this guy named Liam. He seems pretty nice when we all change seats to sit next to our partners. He doesn't say much but hello after we sit down. The teacher gives us a rubric and all the things we need to do to get a passing grade. 

I do most of the talking with snide comments, and jokes while we read over it. She gives us the rest of class to work on it. 

"I'll go get one of the poster boards." he says. I watch his as he gets up and walks to the front of the class. I avert my eyes and start to brainstorm how we're going to do the project. I come up with a really colorful way to design the board quicker than I thought I would. 

Liam comes back and takes a peak at my work so far, poster board in hand. "That's really good." he compliments, "And we could probably do a different animal for each section to present the information on the power point and the poster."

"Oh yeah, we do have to make a power point."

"I'll take care of most of the power point in the computer lab tomorrow if you take care of the poster's information." he suggests.

I accept his idea with a quick nod and a cheeky smile. We sit down and takes notes to get information from the textbooks. We're pretty much done with the research part by the end of class. 

I'm about to leave when Liam says, "Can I get your number." he hastily adds, "So I can call you if anything goes wrong or if I need to ask you something about the project."

"Sure thing." He hands me his phone and I put my name and number in the contacts. I hand him his phone back then start to head to fourth period. Surprisingly Korey isn't there so class goes by with me actually paying attention. 

A few classes later the end of school bell sounds and I head outside. I just don't like hanging around the building until my bus is called. As soon as I step out of the building I spot the curly haired boy. I almost walk up to him until another person comes into view. Bri. I stop dead in my tracks when I see her. So they are together! That stupid cunt. 

Why is she a "cunt" exactly? The voice in my head asks. Because, she's with him. That's why. Why the fuck would they be hanging out so much if they aren't going out. 

Enraged, I spin on my heels and start walking in the direction opposite of them.

"E!" I hear behind me. What does he want. I don't change my speed. I don't even look back. "E!" The same voice yells.

This time I stop. Harry appears before me breathing heavier than usual. "What do you want, Styles?" I say in a harsh tone. 

He doesn't seem affected by it. He just looks at me as if he has a loss for words. That annoys me even more. I roll my eyes, "That's what I thought. Nothing." I walk away and when he tries to reach for my arm I jerk it out from his grip. 

"See ya later." I hear from behind me. It's Bri's high pitched rat voice. I can practically hear the smirk on her words. Now I'm glad I kept my phone off all day. The only messages would probably be about Harry and Briana's new relationship. Like what the heck. They've only known each other for a couple of days and now they're probably sucking each other's throats out at this very moment. I can't even understand why he would go after my childhood friend. Yeah, he's charming with perfect features, and beautiful hair. And yeah, bri's practically a...I don't want to say ho but, she's a ho. Period point blank. 

The bus ride home is dreadful and I don't wait for Jeremy when it's my stop. I get inside and drop all my things at the front door and rush to my room. I never thought I'd say it but I just lost a best friend. Maybe it's just me, but it seems like she never really was my friend. Thinking back she would always try to make me the third wheel. She's purposely not invite me to her get togethers with Korey. But of course I didn't think anything of it. I feel my throat tighten and my eyes burn as tears start to stream down my face. She was never my friend. She just stuck around because of Korey, or maybe she didn't want to look like a whore who only hung around guys so she used us as a cover up. I'm going with the second option. 

I silently cry into my pillow, a mind full of thoughts, until I hear the door bell. It's probably Bri coming here to rub her new boyfriend in my face. 

Yup, you're jealous. Shut up Whisp. That's what I named the voice inside my head because she seems to be coming around a lot. Might as well welcome her in with a name if she's going to constantly give me feedback on my life. 

I slowly make my way to the door hoping whoever it is will think I'm gone. I open the door just a crack, then a sudden force pushes it back more to let themselves in. Harry closes the door, leaving us alone. Well we would've been alone if the door was open too, unless he brought along that friend faker huffy. Where am I even getting these names from. Half the things I called her weren't even in my vocabulary before today. 

He clears his throat which annoys the heck out of me so I stand in the sassiest way possible. "What are you doing here?" I intended for it to be said sassier but it came out like I had just been crying myself dry. Which I have. 

"Why are you trying to avoid me so much, and why are you mad at me? I didn't do anything." He has a pleading in his eyes that I don't believe for a minute.

"You didn't do anything? Oh, so dating my best-" I correct myself, "ex-best friend is nothing. You've only known her for what 48 hours and you two are already fucking in the back of the school yard." I didn't really mean to add the last part, it was supposed to be meant for me to hear only, but it came out anyway.

He looks at me with fire in his eyes. I shrink back. Maybe I should've just made up a reason instead. I like the nice Harry better. ''You think I would actually fuck around with someone I've only known for a day? Of all people you should at least know I would never do that. And we're not dating, we're just hanging out together. Where would you even get that idea from?"

"I just thought-" he cuts me off.

"Well you thought wrong. You don't have the right to falsely accuse me of going out with someone. And I don't see why you have to be so jealous of me with other people. It's not like I'm going out with you." I take a step back as if he pushed me. Blood rushes to me ears and I can feel the tears start coming again. I'm to embarrassed to say anything so I just walk away. I don't look back. I hear the front door close, and I know he's gone. What have I done.
