Chapter 14

(Erica's POV)

So by the time I went outside, I was already an emotional wreck, stupid Daniel, but I'll suck it up for today. I needed some time alone with Britt, maybe get her to bond with me a little. As I'm waiting I start to notice the little things in Daniel's house that I didn't notcie before. Like the moss the grew on the side of doorbell, wall, chairs, and the flowers that grew all all over his yard, or the little smell of something that has been cooked inside. It's truly beautiful.

I was busy admiring the greatness of it all when Britt had finished in the bathroom and walked outside.

"You ready?"

"Yeah, sure, let's go."

An hour later we we're at the mall. It was a quiet drive, not awkard but a comfortable one. She tried to make a onversation, but I wouldn't answer much.

Britt asked me to come with her to her favorite stores with her, give her opinions on what she should buy, by the end of it all she had 11 bags and I only had 2. We we're on our way to lunch, where she bouth us both some Panda Express. At this point, I decided to ask some questions.

"Hey Britt?"

"Yeah?"

"Why did you bully me so much?"

"Wow straight forward... Well, I don't know. At the time I guess I was mad because I saw that Daniel liked you and not me. And because you didn't say anything."

"Wanna know why?"

"Sure, what's up?"

"My dad died." I mumbled barely audible.

"What?"

"My dad died," I spoke a little louder. "Then my mom hated me, she started to beat me, burn me, taunt me, stab me, everything and anything dangerous she hit me with. Then when school started, I didn't have the courage to talk to anyone, I was afraid of rejection."

"Wow. I'm really sorry. If I would have known I wouldn't have done it."

"Its ok. You know, it's funny actually, I didn't expect us to be civil toward each other, I didn't expect to be telling this to you. I never told anyone else except Daniel and Dylan."

"I know right, and speaking of them, let's talk about Dylan."

"Ok. Then let's talk about Daniel."

"Fine. So where did you meet him, and how did this relationship start?"

"When I ran away, I went to this motel,and he was there, working the lobby. I offered to take him back home, and then we moved in together. The next day we went to buy stuff for my house and Dylan was there, he said he missed me and I said I was with Dylan. What about you?"

"We met at a party, he was there looking as wonderful as ever. I wanted to get his attention. So I pinched his butt which made him turn around, then I kissed him which turned into a make out sessions. then we dated. I was pretty intresting, he didn't even have to ask me out!"

"Oh cool. How do you know Dylan?"

"I met him at the party too. After me and Daniel broke up he was there to comfort me. Then we dated too. I honestly had alot more fun with Dylan. He took me everywhere."

OH so the both dated her. Hmm... interesting.

I WAS GOING TO END IT RIGHT HERE BUT THATS MEAN AND TO SHORT! So keep reading nuggets!

Soon after we got home, we started watching Pitch Perfect again, then we watched Grown Ups 2. (A/N: Sorry for the interruption. I want to watch PP2 SOOOO BAD! But it comes out in 2015. Poop.) Daniel and Dylan we fighting. Lilah was sleeping. I'll have to get Lilah later so we can go to our house. Apparently Dylan brought her over here for Daniel. Dylan. We have to talk later.

Soon enough the movie ended. It was time to wake up Lilah and go home. Tommorow was her birthday. She's turning 8 years old.

"Dylan lets go!"

No answer.

"Lilah?"

"They went home." Said a voice startling me.

I turned around to see it was just Dylan.

"My god, Dylan. Don't ever scare me like that again."

"Look Erica. Can we talk?"

"Fine. Hurry though."

"Ok I'll make this quick. I'm sorry. I really didn't mean to make you mad and run away. I only wanted to burn off some steam. I needed something."

"First, I don't care. Second, I WASN'T MAD! I WAS SAD! I WAS A WRECK! I was broken, and you crush my glass shards! You made them into dust! I hated you! Third, why didn't you get drunk or smoke, or GET ARRESTED! Why would you cheat on me?! Fourth, I needed something too! I NEEDED FORGIVENESS AND YOU HURT ME INSTEAD!"

"I DIDN'T MEAN TO!"

"Whatever! I'm done, bye."

***

Me and Dylan are here curled up on our bed. We're not watching tv, we're talking and staring at space. I figured this was as good a time as any to ask the question that was on my mind.

"Dylan? Can I ask you a question?" I asked in a hush tone.

"Sure," he replied in the same tone.

"We're you ever dating Britt?"

"Yeah a long time ago. It wasn't much. But good times. I know I'll have that with you. You know that I'll always be in love with you!"

"Are you quoting Alicia Keys?"

"Sorry, I hoped you wouldn't notice."

I could pratically see the smirk.

"Ok. Goodnight Dylan."

"Goodnight, babe."

And we slept.
