Writing Her Ballad

Chapter 3.

It had been 3 days since I've seen Trey at the park. I was starting to miss him. My thoughts were interrupted by the FaceTime sign popping up on my computer. Sebastian. I smiled and clicked answer, waiting for it to connect.

"HAAAAAY GURL"

I laughed and replied "Haaaay boo thang"

We discussed how we've been and he asked me the strangest, and scariest question.

"Elizabeth... What would you do.." He left a long pause and I looked at him strangely "What would you do if I got a boyfriend...?" He asked cautiously.

You may be shocked, but Sebastian and I were both bisexual.

"I-I.. I don't know.. Did you?" I asked him, covering up the hurt I felt.

"Well... Yes. Yes, I do. I have a boyfriend. I... I'm sorry."

"O-oh.. Don't be sorry. I'm happy for you. Don't worry about me. I'm glad for you both. What's his name?" I fake smiled and he smiled back.

"His name is Tyler. He's perfect. He has the most beautiful green eyes and black wavy hair. He... I'm sorry. I'm rambling..."

"No, no, it's fine, Sebastian. It is okay!"

"Okay... Do you have any lucky boys or girls in your life?"

"Well..." I muttered, smiling. "This guy.. He's tall, funny and sweet. He has reddish brown eyes. He has light brown, wavy, messy hair and it's fun to play with.. I don't know if we are friends... Or more, though." I looked down at my hands in my lap.

"Oh, Liz. He sounds amazing. I'm sorry. Can I help?"

"Make these feelings go away" I muttered under my breath, and he barely heard me.

We just say there in silence.

I heard my mom walk in after coming home from her job at Walmart. I told sea bass I had to go and blew him a kiss. It made us both smile. I hung up.

I heard a knock on my door, "Liz, are you in there?"

"Yep" I said, recognizing my mom's voice.

She walked in and told me some good news: she's starting rehab and therapy as well. I smiled and said "yay! Good for you! I'm glad."

"Thank you." She simply stated and walked out, closing my door behind her.

The next morning I woke up with a message from Sebastian and two messages from Trey. I checked Sebastian's message first.

"Hey, lo. I love you. I'm sorry, but Tyler doesn't like us talking. So we shouldn't talk to eachother much. Ill miss you. Bye." I had to read it over and over. 'What...?' I thought again. Is he really replacing me with his new boyfriend...? I didn't understand this. It hurt. A lot. Why is he doing this to me?!

I replied a simple "Okay. Bye" I saw that he read it almost immediately and never answered.

I checked the messages from Trey. At 9:34 he sent "Good morning, beautiful. Would you like to hang out today?"

And just a few minutes ago, 10:56, he sent "I hope you're awake now. We can go out to eat, if you'd like. Anything you want(:" I smiled.

I typed out a small message "I'd love to hang out. When and where?"

I set down my phone and hopped in the shower, got ready and everything. I decided to curl my naturally straight hair. I checked my phone and Trey had said "Oh, I can pick you up now, if you'd like."

"Okay, I'm ready!" He only lived about 7 minutes away from my apartment.

"On my way now, Liz."

"Where are we going?"

"Well... It's a surprise now. ❤ You'll see(;" I smiled and put my phone in the pocket of my black torn, ripped skinny jeans. I was wearing my all black converse and my Skate And Surf Festival tank top. I realized I was wearing Sebastian's dog tag. I ripped it off over my head and threw it in the trash can with anger.

I heard a knock on my front door and I opened it, knowing it was Trey.

"Hey!" I said, motioning him to come in, but staring because he was wearing a Motley Crüe shirt without sleeves and cutoff jean shorts, holding baby pink roses in his hand.

"I-I..." I stopped, blushing.

He handed them to me "Here. These are for you" and he flashed me a cute smile.

"Thank you.." I smiled widely and blushes harder, taking the roses. "You know, I've never actually had a boyfriend, or even a guy sort of like me, or treat me like how you do. Not even a first kiss."

"How??" Is all he said.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean how could you not have ever had a boyfriend, or a crush, or been someone's crush?"

"I-I don't know." I stuttered.

"Well... I'm hoping to be your first, as hopefully last" he said, looking down at me. Both of our cheeks were turning a special shade of pink.

"I'm hoping for the same."

We headed out and listened to Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix on pandora. "Nice music" I commented. He smiled and sang along.

He pulled into a parking space in downtown, near the park we were at last time. He got out, opened my door and held my hand, running with our hands intertwined. We ended up at a frozen yogurt place. We ate and then went to the park. After talking and walking for about an hour, we say down. He took both of my hands and said "okay. I just want to make it official. So... Elizabeth Lorraine Morre, will you be my girlfriend?"

My heart jumped with joy and I replied "oh, of course!" I smiled hard and rested my head on his shoulder.

AUTHORS NOTE: ONCE AGAIN, IM SORRY IT'S SHORT. OK. ILYGUYS.
