Behind Closed Doors

Chapter 4

The first week has been good. Tammy and I are definitely getting closer. Yesterday we went out for an ice cream at her favourite ice cream shop, Happy Scoops. I had a Tutti Frutti ice cream. It was seriously delicious!

I haven't seen Tyler and Dinah a lot lately. Tammy said something about them being on holiday with Dinah's parents. Apparently her dad is this rich guy who owns a very busy company. Her mum, well I don't know much about her but Tammy told me that she has been sick for about 6 months.

I also spent a lot of time with Ally, Naomi and the guys. We went bowling 3 days ago and I really like them especially Naomi and Jordon because they always include me in stuff. I like hanging out with them, we have a lot of things in common. Tammy is definitely my bff though. I know that I only met her a week ago but we spent every minute of every day together so far except in classes of course since we are in different years.

I've got an assignment to do for next week so I better get started. I like to listen to music while I'm working. Some people say they lose their focus but not me. I'm actually pretty good at multi tasking and it's more fun that way.

After what seemed like hours the door opened and Dinah enters. She looks so mad and pissed off about something.

" Is everything okay?" I ask her. I know we're not really friends but she looks like a mess.

" Ugh this whole holiday has been a joke. My dad's company isn't going so well, my mum isn't getting better and Tyler, don't even get me started, he's acting so weird" she says.

When I'm about to speak and comfort her, she stops me. " You know what, I don't even know why I'm telling you any of this" she says again.

That's what you get for trying to be nice Alex. I don't get people like Dinah but I do feel sorry for her. I'm sure she's just sad because of her parents. Tyler not being there for her doesn't really help.

" I'm going to have a quick shower" I tell her. She just nodded.

It was supposed to be quick but I just started to think about stuff and it took quite long. I was just thinking about what Dinah said about Tyler acting strange. I don't know what but something inside me wanted to know what's wrong. I know it's not my place but if there is something wrong, I want to be able to help.

I got out of the shower and wrapped a towel around me. Shit I forgot my clothes on the bed. 

" Dinah! Can you please get me my clothes from the bed?" I yelled. She doesn't even respond. Great! I open the door so I could get the clothes myself. I see Tyler on Dinah's bed playing with his phone.

As soon as he sees me he just stares and doesn't take his eyes off of me. I don't know if that is a good thing. His eyes go down my body. Omg I almost forgot the only thing covering my body right now is a towel. 

He doesn't say 1 word and I feel like I'm naked. After a minute of staring I can't manage to open my mouth to speak. You could feel the tension around us but finally he manages to say something.

" Um.. Dinah..she uh went to get some snacks..yeah" he says slowly. I just nodded, got my clothes from the bed and ran back to the bathroom.

The way he was looking at me was so mysterious. I didn't know what he was thinking. That's the  thing about Tyler, you never know what he's thinking. All I know is that I felt butterflies in my stomach.

I put on my clothes, brushed my teeth and just did my hair in a messy bun. I get out of the bathroom and Dinah is back with snacks.

" Alex we are going to watch a movie on my bed so please don't make too much noise" Dinah says politely.

Well that's weird. She's being so nice all of a sudden. "Sure" is the only thing I say. I still can't get over what happened a few minutes ago and now Tyler didn't even look at me once.

I just got in my bed and started to read one of Larry Stylinson's fan fictions while they were watching the movie. I'm guessing Tyler is probably sleeping over tonight then.
