12. Lonely

Dylan P.O.V

She was standing at my door step her hands intertwined but nothing to say. "Are you just gonna stand there?" I looked at her and she stepped one foot inside them the other.

"Can we talk in your room?" Her head faved the floor and nothing else.

"Sure." I walked ahead of her and she followed along.

We walked up the stairs in silence and I lead her to my room. I closed the door and sat at my desk and she sat at the end of my bed. I cleared my voiced, "So what did you want to talk about?"

There was silence awkward silence. Julie called me before she showed telling me about how we need to talk and I might hate her after words.

I don't get how I could hate her. She helped me with my cheesy prom-postal this morning and Skylar said yes. I owe the world to Julie because I probably be to wimp to ask her just by talking.

Julie cleared her voice and started to talk "So after you asked Skylar to prom I wasn't crying because of how cute it was I- I- was crying because I had no one to go with. Well there was someone specific I wanted to go with which was my best friend y-"

"You like Gene!?" I said surprised cause she obviously has better taste in men. Gene was a slob and he was rude to the girls he dated.

"No. I like y- you."

"I know that's wh- wait you mean like, like?" I tilted my head. I thought we were just friends nothing more. She starred at me and waited for a response. I didn't know what I wanted to say.

There was a knot in my stomach and my throat every time I wanted to say something I couldn't think of what to say or how to say it.

"I really need to think." The words came out. I didn't mean it how I said it but it was too much.

"I get that. I'll just go." She stood up and brushed herself off. She walked out and was gone.

I went to my bed and unplugged my phone next to my bed. I picked it up and texted Skylar to come over. She quickly replied.

'Be right there'

I lied on my bed replaying that moment in my head. How was I gonna tell Skylar? How would she react? Should I tell her?

Times like this I needed my brothers. They may be in my speed dial but they hardly answer any more. Jacob was always too busy trying to get a job without needing a college degree and Bryan was always studying.

In this moment I replayed to the moment I met Skylar and the first time our lips touched. If I've never met Skylar would I be dating Julie?

Skylar was sure taking her sweet time. Leaving me here to melt in my bed sheets of thought. I didn't understand anything I felt as if I was lost. I shut my eyes and imagined me and Julie without Skylar in my life.

Everything was totally different.

"I love you." She said the words came out of her mouth smooth as peanut butter. "I love you too." I've never felt more love. Our lips collided and it felt as if we were the only people on Earth. I took her hair and shifted it behind her ear. She looked at me and I looked at her. It was a story to tell everyone. I loved her and she loved me. Me and Julie in perfect harmony she was yin and I was yang. We sat on the hill and just stared at all the clouds there were hearts, Julie's face, and etc. Skylar who was Skylar?

Never have I dreamt something so vivid. My thoughts were clouded as soon as I woke up forgetting was the worst. I opened my eyes and heard slight knocks at my door. I sat up and walked over. Before I opened it I ran my fingers through my hair. I opened it to see Skylar crossing her arms and looking upset at me.

"Why didn't you answer the first ten minutes?"

I ignored her question. "Who let you in?"

"Your mom. She came back from the store. What did you need to tell me?"

I opened the door more and gave her a motion to come inside once she entered I closed the door. I sat next to her on my bed.

I grabbed her hands and started to speak, "Um I don't know how to tell you this but I think Julie likes me." It came out of me faster than intended.

Her face become angry to furious real quick. "Do you like her?" She asked scooting away from me.

There's that question. Usually in Tv when people get asked they do or they realize they do. But for me I didn't think about it. I don't like Julie she's just a friend and that's what I had to realize.

"Hey your spacing out answer my question!" She called her hands and making me blink multiple time.

"No she's just a friends." She crossed her arms not believing my answer.

"They why did you have to think about it?"

"I didn't. I swear I don't like her!"

"Then it would be a problem to stop hanging out with her?" Such confidence she has to ask me that.

"But she's my friend an-"

"Her or me?" She was being ridicules.

"You bu-"

"It's settled. I have to go to the gym with my dad and I promised I meet him there." She kissed my forehead head and walked out my room.

Time to think. It's a mystery and I can't be thinking about who I like when prom is only Saturday and it's Thursday. I still needed a tux and a corsage for Skylar. How am I going to think about Skylar when I'm busy thinking about Julie.

Shit deep inside me is there something inside me that likes Julie?

I was empty with my thoughts almost as if I was in a lonely world.
