I Hate Loving You.

Chapter 15: Loves Me. Loves Me Not

Tyler's POV

Okay well I have a date for tonight. And Kaitlyn will be there with Austin. Why would Austin want me to come? I mean I was nothing but a jerk to him with Kaitlyn. Maybe we actually can become friends. The only thing holding me back from becoming friends with him is Kaitlyn because they are dating. Gosh I can't stress enough how much I hate that guy right now. Once they break up we can be friends.

I turn to my phone and still have no texts. I decide to take a shower. More time to think anyways. Oh yeah! What was that all about?! With Haley. I do take the time to see who cares about me. Like Mallory. Wait... Scratch that. What about Aiden?! Me and him are best friends. But I guess I didn't know he thought I was a player. But he cares. Mallory did too. Maybe it was just me who didn't take the time to care. I was always being selfish. Not them. They tried helping me out a bunch.

Crap. I have been in the shower for over 20 minutes and my phone is ringing off the hooks. Well technically it can't because its a IPhone but you get the point. I run over to it and answe quickly. "Hello?" I grab a piece of paper and a pen as Kaitlyn tells me everything for tonight. She even tells me how to dress. "Okay so we are going to California Pizza Kitchen in Chesterfield mall so you guys can shop afterwards at 5:30 and I should wear jeans and a nice shirt?" She confirms my question and I start to look for my clothes. My jeans were easily found and now a shirt. Okay well in my drawer I find a red plaid button up. Good enough. I put that on and drive straight over to Haley's house.

"So we need to leave at 5:15 in order to get to Chesterfield mall for our California Pizza Kitchen reservations at 5:30. Afterwards you girls are going to shop around and that's pretty much it. Kaitlyn told me to wear this so you can pick what you wear." Wow. What a way to say hi. She lets me in and goes to her room to get ready. It's already 4:45 so we leave in 30 minutes. She comes out wearing skinny jeans with a tank and a crop tshirt. Okay cool. "Let's get going because of the traffic." We are then out the door.

Kaitlyns POV

Why did I agree to this double date? I know I have feelings for Tyler. I always have. And I still do. Like I said: I don't care what crap he puts me through. None of that matters. For some unknown reason something always brings me back to him. I don't know what it is. I was freakin kidding when I said he lost me or I didn't miss him. It hurts. Too much. I'm so tired of feeling confused. There is a reason he still has a part of my heart. And he won't give it back. No matter how much I hate him. I don't hate him. Wait. Yes I do. No. Yes. I don't even know anymore. It's all to confusing.

I get ready for the date by taking a shower and curling my hair. Black leggings and a hot pink, ruffled, tank top. Perfect. And to top it off, black flats. My doorbell rings and I take a deep breath as I answer it. I grab my purse and walk out to the car with Austin. So far so good. I have one song that sums up my love life with Tyler right now. It doesn't all make perfect sense but the chorus does. It's called 'I Almost Do' by Taylor Swift. I realized how precise this was as I listened to it on the way to CPK. I had to change the station. "Don't like country?" Austin asks me. "I love country!" "Then why'd you change it?" "It was depressing. I can put it back on if you want...?" He laughs a little then brushes it off.

We arrive at the mall the same time Tyler and his girlfriend do. I hate her already and I haven't even met her. Wow. She is actually pretty. She has black hair that fall right below her shoulder and pretty hazel eyes. She wears jeans and a cute crop top. It looks good on her. Tyler looks adorable too. That reminds me. I haven't even noticed what Austin is wearing. I look him over and see him wearing jeans with a black button up. Ehhh kinda cute. Tyler looks better. Wow I can't believe I just compared my boyfriend to Tyler. I don't even know what to call him. We are back in speaking terms again but we haven't been hanging out. As for Toby, he still lives in the apartment. Not sure when or if he is coming back.
