It was 11:30 PM when I got home. Everyone was sleeping and I decided to just go to sleep and put my thoughts to the side. What happened at Austin's house earlier needed to be talked out but I planned on avoiding him for a while. He needed to know that our friendship of almost 8 years meant more than just pity. And he would only realize if he had some unwanted space from me. Or maybe he would get what he want, freedom from me.

I groaned, tossing and turning again. I don't think sleep was going to get to me very soon.

Just as I was trying to sing myself a lullaby in my head, my phone rung.

I blindly picked it up and answered. The light was too bright for me to read the name.

"Hello?"

"Hey.." Ally said cheerfully.

Well I'm glad someone is having a good time.

"Hey! Enjoying party?" I asked.

"Yeah, Stacy is getting drunk so I locked myself in a room to call you" she said.

Now my friends need to hide to talk to me.

"Um, so why'd you call?"

"To explain what happened. See, I was at the mall last week and I saw Stacy arguing with a security officer about stealing or something. I asked what happened and they told me that she wouldn't pay for a dress that she just bought. It kind of made me laugh but I saw how desperately she wanted the dress so I paid for it. So for appreciation, she invited me to this party."

"Oh wow..." I was surprised.

"She is really nice, Lee. People just see the bad side of her and not the good side"

"People see what you show, I don't mean to offend your new friend but she has never shown a good side to anyone."

"Are you really the one to say that?" Ally snapped at me out of nowhere.

"At least I don't bully others for my entertainment" I defended myself.

I didn't know what had gotten into my friends but right now, I felt like I needed space more than anything. I was losing all my friends because of my attitude or maybe something else.

"You do way worse, Lee" Ally said before hanging up. Was she really just defending someone who made our life miserable for the whole 4 years of high school? Un-fucking-Believable.

I was finding it hard to believe that my only girl friend thought I was worse than the biggest bully in school. I cannot recall anything I've said or done to her that would make her think that way about me.

I locked my phone and placed it on the bedside table. I was too tired to think, or maybe I was tired of thinking.

I woke up and followed my normal routine to school, only this time I had a terrible headache. Devil came to my room early in the morning to play video games before he had to get ready for school. That kept me awake the whole morning.

I drove my mini van to school and I was beyond tired. I was then stuffing my books in my locker when I felt a presence of a tall figure leaning against the locker beside him.

"So I thought about it..." Zach trailed off.

"Hello to you too and about?" I asked confused.

"About what you said yesterday... The whole Hunter being a lying asshole thing."

"And?"

"And... I think I believe you more. Even though I should be believing him since he is my best friend and the whole bros before hoes thing... I still want to believe you more" he smiled at me.
