Everything Changes

Chapter Six

He still hadn't answered me. "Are you gonna talk or just stare?"

He looks at me with a look almost like guilt, but somewhat sorry. "......I'm sorry."

"For which part?" I ask kinda rudely.

"For asking you out, then getting mad. Then kissing my ex in front of you." He says, which kind of makes me feel bad for yelling at him earlier.

"I do like you....just we have only known each other for a week. I mean I want to wait until I know you better."

"I guess I can understand that. So can I tell you about me then, so that you can get to know me better?"

"Sure."

"Okay. I live with my dad, stepmom and little brother. My real mom died from cancer when I was 10. I-"

I cut him off as he starts his next sentence. "I'm so sorry. You didn't have to tell me that."

"Yes I did. I want you to know me. Even if we don't end up dating, I still want to be friends. My brother is 15. Tyler has brown hair with brown eyes."

"I'd like to meet them."

"Okay, what about tomorrow? Dinner at my house?"

"Yeah. That sounds good. What time should I be there?" I say a little shocked but also happily.

"I will pick you up around 6:30." He says standing from my bed. He walks over towards me and gives me a hug, I hug him back. He kisses my forehead then leaves. I feel kind of happy, but why?

Monday Morning

*Beep* *Beep* *Beep*
I wake up to the annoying sound of my alarm on my phone. I get out of my warm bed and my feet touch the cold brownish white hardwood floor. I walk to my closet and grab a pair of light blue jeans and a black tank top with silver letters saying "News Flash, I Don't Care." I grab my black an silver Vans and head to the bathroom. I put my clothes on the counter and take a shower. I finish and put my clothes on. I walk to my dresser and grab my no show socks. I put them on then my Vans. I brush my hair and dry it. While I'm waiting for my straightener to heat up I do my makeup, it's light but I do winged eyeliner. I grab my iPhone and text Katelin.

To: Kate🌺🌋🌊
Hey I'm ready. Beep the horn when you're here.

From: Kate🌺🌋🌊
Okay. Gotta tell you something!

I finish my hair then walk downstairs to the kitchen and grab a breakfast bar. I hear the car and walk outside. I jump in the car and we take off.

"So, you remember our old best friend Makynze Taylor?" Kate asks kind of excitedly.

"Yeah. Why?"

"She's back. Today's her first day. Do you think she's the same?" She says nervously.

Makynze was always the good girl with a bad attitude. She's mixed. She had medium black hair last time I saw her, which was in sixth grade. "I don't know... Hopefully she lost that 'too good for you' act."

"Same." She says as we pull into our regular parking spot. We get out and everyone is starring at us. We walk inside and see Makynze. She doesn't dress the same. Her clothes match now. "Why is everyone starring at us?"

"Maybe that's why." I say making a gesture to Makynze making her way towards us.

"Hey. Y'all wanna show your best friend around?" Makynze says. Like the fuck. Bestfriends? Does she not remember what she did to us?!

"Yeah. Why not?" Katelin says with a fake smile plastered across her face.

Makynze has her first three classes with me and Katelin. She seemed a lot nicer now. "So how have you been? You never called or texted us." I say in a fake friendly voice.

"Good. I just want y'all to know that what I did to you, I'm really sorry. I've changed a lot." Makynze says.

Before Makynze left we had gotten into a big fight because her boyfriend broke up with her for me. She poured milk and juice all over me an Katelin on her last day.

"And how have you changed?" Katelin says forcefully.

"I'm not as much of a "good girl" as I was. I'm a party girl now, and I've missed my old friends. I'm not saying you have to but I would really like to be friends again?" She says timidly.

"I don't know." Katelin and I say at the same time.

We walk to science. We have partner tables, my partner is Anthony. We have assigned seats, so where we sit is for the year.

"Are you still coming tonight?" He asks sheepishly.

I go to answer but I'm rudely cut off by Makynze who sits behind us. "Hey cutie. You wanna hangout sometime?" She says to him. I'm stunned. I feel jealous but I don't know why, I mean I said no to him.

"No. I'm hanging out with Sophie." He says

"But I didn't even say when." Her voice trails off.

"I'm always gonna be hanging out with her."

"Yes I'm still coming over tonight." I say picking up our conversation.

"Good. I'm glad. Wear something cute." He says giving me a wink.

Tonight At Anthony's

We go upstairs to his room until dinner is done.

"You know that girl from today, Makynze? She's my old best friend. She wants to be friends again. I kinda missed her while she was gone." I say to him as we sit on his bed.

"Oh. Well if you do become friends again I will be happy for you. Just she was interrupting us today."

"Thank you and I know she was but, she's just very outgoing. She's pretty and she knows it. She's new and looking for some friends."

"Well I'm willing to be her friend if you become friends with her and she doesn't hit on me." I laugh at that.

We finish dinner and he walks me home. I get inside and my phone starts ringing. It's Makynze.

"Hello" I answer

"Hey. About today I'm sorry, I didn't know y'all were together."

"It's fine. We aren't really together but, it's getting there. So I've thought about being friends again. And I want to. I've missed you. Honestly you were a badass friend and I shouldn't have done what I did when that boy broke up with you."

"Really?!? Yay! I'm glad we are friends again. We can hangout this weekend if you want? You, Katelin, that boy, and I if you want. Oh and I promise I won't flirt with him again hahaha."

"yeah sure, but let's not invite Anthony. Give us some time to catch up, ya know?"

"Yeah I get it."

"Okay I will see you Saturday then."

"Okay see you then."

"Bye."

"Bye."

I go upstairs and get into bed. I clap my hands and out goes the lights. I really can't wait to hang out with her. She was a pretty good friend. I've missed her. She still seems pretty badass considering what she did to the girl that pushed me in the hallway earlier. I start to drift off to sleep. I'm almost asleep when my phone starts buzzing. I reach over and see it's Katelin.

"Hello."
She doesn't say anything but I can hear her crying.
