Chapter 10

Next morning when I went to school I avoided everyone I could. Anyone who spoke to me I just tell them off. I have a lot of apologising to do later. That's not the problem now though..Ashton, Avery and a little of Finn was. I don't give a damn about Finn but he was  acting like an egotistical jerk!..acting?...he is!

Avery texted me but I ignored all of them.
She started it..how could she choose my brother over me??
Meanwhile Ashton and I haven't spoken to each other.

Ping

The bell rung signalling it was the beginning of class. I went into Maths class and seated myself at the front...this was my favourite subject. I spotted Avery coming in when I remembered I have this class with her. Great way to start my day eh?

"Hey Lexi..you didn't respond to any of my texts."she said walking up to me.
I dug into my bag acting like I'm searching for something as a way to ignore her.

"Hey Lexi..what's up?"

"I do not know what's up Avery..the sky.. the ceiling... I dunno our friendship?"

"Hey why the cold shoulder here?.. Our friendship?.. Lexi what are you talking about" she asked acting surprised as if she has no idea what I'm deciphering here.

"Keep on acting like you don't know someone will soon carry you to the theatre."

"Lexi I don't know.."

"Save it" I stopped her from finishing. "I don't want to hear it. You don't know what I'm talking? You better find a way to figure it out"
She bowed her head in shame and seated herself at the back of the class just as the teacher came in.
Am I gonna lose such great friendship over a foolish thing?

^^^^^
I sat alone at the cafeteria barely eating my cheese patty and drinking my orange juice. I now have no friends so I've got to live the solo yolo life.

"Lexi" I heard the familiar voice say with pain in the voice "please tell me what I did wrong that made you so upset you've come to the point of breaking up our friendship.. I need to fix it but I've got to know the problem"

"Ohk Avery..its the fact that you chose my damn brother over me. You know how I despise him when he gets on my last nerves and that he did. And when I told you you just say I should apologise. You know how angry I was? You always stood up for me even when I was wrong..my brother suddenly changed that?"
She sat beside me with tears in her eyes and I felt I should just let it go until she said
"Lexi..your brother and I are dating"

"What??!!" I shouted standing up. Everyone's eyes drew near to catch a glimpse of the scene.

"I'm sorry.. I..I'm so sorry..its only been a few weeks" she informed
A few weeks!!!
I should be happy but not when its my brother!

"I can't stay here..I can't talk about this..not now" I said as I stomped away deciding to skip school for the day.

I was thinking about going home then I remembered that its dad's day off and he'd go all popsicle stand on me if he sees me at this time so I headed to the park.
I walked over to the bench with my head hanging low. When I was just a couple footsteps away I saw.......Winston?....with another girl eating her face off with those kisses.
I can't believe... Oh my gosh...I wanna puke.
Tears rolled down my eyes as I ran away from there.
He didn't even realized I was approaching him!
I can't believe he'd do this to me!
The oh so Mr Perfect as finally been bent. He is just a player. I should have seen this coming! And to think I've gone into a malice with my brother because of him!
I'm so going to get him back!
I need comfort..I can't go through this alone. Only two persons at this present moment I could tell this to..Ashton and Avery...but I can't because of my stupidity.

^^^^^
I spent the rest of the day at a small café a little away from school. I thought deeply about Ashton and Avery. They deserve a chance. I can't possibly be one to judge. I don't know what they feel for each other so I can't make the decisions for them.

I looked at my phone to check the time and I see that school was almost over. I waited outside the school gate for Avery. I needed to apologise.

I saw her coming out and as she did I dragged her in a corner and hugged her.
I started to cry. I hugged her with all my might and she returned it. I can't possibly think of losing her.
"Ave" I said as we released each other and I wiped my tears "I am sorry for not accepting your decision with Ashton and sorry for getting mad at you for a crazy thing "

"Its OK Lexi..I should have stood up for you no matter who it is"

"Yeah and I think you and Ash would make a supes cute couple" I said smiling

Suddenly there was this huge grin on her face she jumped and hugged me " thank you thank you thank you so much..I was thinking of breaking up with him so you'll at least forgive me a little"

"I was foolish and not a good friend.. You were gonna do that to make me happy.. That is a great friend..thank you for being my friend"

"You are not a bad friend you had some problems and acted the way any normal human would.. Thank you for being a great friend"

We hugged again and then realization struck me and I was sad  again when I remembered.
"Uh..Ave?.." I sniffled

"Yeah?"

"Winston is cheating on me"

*******

So Winston is a jerk after all.
I saw that coming (duh..I write the book)
