Falling

Chapter 7 - Girl Without Gossip

Day on day I keep on getting these stupid texts from Bryson.

'Hey, wanna meet?'

'How's your day been?'

'Saw you today b :*'

'You busy after school Thursday?'

I was starting to get annoyed, I don't mean to be avoiding him but i don't want to get too involved in his life because I'm still worried about Amy. He doesn't know what happened with me and her so I don't think he understands what harm she can be capable of doing to me. 

'Hi, yeah I guess, maybe meet at park around 4?' I finally reply after his fourth message, I feel so rude! 

My science homework is almost finished but its been taking me so long to do because I've been listening to music at the same time and i continuously stop and start singing. Currently 'What If I Go?' is playing so I get to focus more on my homework when it comes to  the instrumental bits. Mum is at work so I've got the house to myself until 7, and currently its 5, what should I do when I'm done? Maybe Tiffany wants me to come round, I'll text her.

"You busy tiff?"

"Nah, can I come over?"

"I was hoping to come yours.." She reads my message but doesn't reply?

I continue with my homework until there's a knock on the door, thumping down the stairs I reach to the door and open with a slightly worried face.

It's Tiffany.

"Too late." she smiles, damn she came mine. We began gossiping about school and talking about boys and she keeps bragging on about some fit guy called Tony, I honestly couldn't care less but I pretend to look interested like every girly girl would usually.

"He's soooo buff though, look at his Insta!" she brags and faces her Iphone 6 screen at my face, he's buff okay, but looks extra fuckboy.

"Erm, he's gonna fuck you about if you want anything with him," I warn her "but you know, your choice, but don't run back to me when he does."

"You just think every guy is a player don't you! Well I don't know how you can say that when you never have anyone." Tiffany smirks causing me to become pissed off. 

"What the fuck Tiffany?!"

"Okay I went to far, sorry." 

What a fucking bitch, she needs to learn to control her mouth sometimes, but I guess I'm used to it since I've been friends with her for so long that things don't come as a surprise anymore. 

There's a silence for almost 5 minutes whilst we scroll on our phones and look on different social media's, but then she cracks a conversation up again.

"Any buff people you find in Ridgeway?"

"Nah"

"You sure? Cobe is buff ennit?"

"He's alright, his friend is though."

"Ooo, but wait, which one?"

I've only seen one of his friends so I'm not sure how to explain him, "Erm he's got brown hair and brown eyes, really cute."

"Fin?"

"I'm not sure." That might be him but honestly I don't even think I've heard his name before. In all honesty I haven't found anyone too attractive in Ridgeway yet, which is quite a downer, but I'll survive. I should just focus on education right now since I haven't properly been learning in quite a while now, so it's just important to finally catch up instead of focusing on finding 'The One'.

*Phone vibrates* A message from Bryson pops up on my phone which is laying on the bed, Tiffany goes to pick it up and reads it out for me "Sure b, see ya."

"Damnn, still talking to Bryson? Aren't you scared? Have you guys gotten close? Don't tell me you're linking?" A load of questions exit Tiffany's gobby mouth.

"No, calm it, we're just meeting to catch up, we barely talk. And I don't even like him that much." I lie, he seems like a really chilled out guy actually, I'm just scared to admit it.
