"Wow, you look so dead" Kyle teases.
"I feel so dead" I run a hand through my hair "I didn't get any sleep last night" I drop my things by the couch, sitting down. Kyle sits down beside me, throwing my legs over his lap.
"So, I talked to Austin..." He trails off.
"Yeah, me too" I scoff lightly, and Kyle looks at me in confusion.
"Well, anyways, he told me all about your little sexcapade" He chuckles.
"And?" I urge him to continue. Not that it will anything, I just want to know what he thought.
"He said you're the best he's had and he'd have no problem doing it again" He winks, and I laugh quietly.
"That's funny" I snort "That's why he had sex with Lynn, to prove that I'm the best he's ever had" I scoff, standing up from the couch.
"He told me that, well I didn't know it was like full on sex, but I did hear about that" Kyle sighs.
"Yeah, I did too" I tut "Kind of a self-esteem killer" I frown "Then, he tried to defend himself by saying I need to understand that they were together for two years, yet a week after I started working here he told me he lost feelings for her the second he saw me, but it's whatever" I shrug "He can go fuck himself for all I care" I storm out of the employee building, slamming the door behind me. I clean up around the pool, making sure everything looks better before we open.
"Hey, you want first shift?" Kyle yells from behind me.
"Sure, I don't care" I shrug, walking past him to get my whistle. I put it on and walk out, climbing onto my post. I play with my fingers as some people begin walking into the pool.
"Hey Lennon" Ella chirps "How are you?"
"I'm good, how are you?" I ask.
"I'm great!" She grins, walking over to her post.
"Hey Gorgeous" Dan says from the bottom of my post, and I smile.
"Hey Cupcake" I wink and he rolls his eyes playfully, walking off to his post. An hour seems to fly by as Brit comes up to take my spot on the post and I walk back into the building, pulling off my whistle.
Austin is sitting on the couch, scrolling through the tv channels, and I bite my lip. I know that he knows I'm here but that doesn't mean I want him here.
God, Lennon, you're acting so immature. I mentally roll my eyes, taking a seat on the chair adjacent to the couch. I look down at my phone, but I can feel his eyes burning into my skin. I look up from my phone and look at the tv seeing he settled on some show on MTV. I leave my phone on the arm rest of the chair and walk to the fridge, grabbing a bottle of water.
"Do you want a bottle of water?" I ask, out of common courtesy of course.
"No thanks, Bab- Lennon" He catches himself, and I nod awkwardly, walking back to the chair. I sit down, and cross my legs, picking my phone back up.
"Ugh, you guys still aren't talking?" Kyle groans as he walks into the room. Austin and I both look at him, and look away, Kyle sighing. He takes the remote from Austin, who yells in protest and I laugh until Kyle rips my phone out of my hand.
"Hey!"
"Talk! Now!" He demands and I sigh crossing my arms over my chest. He leaves the room, and Austin and I sit in silence until he decides to break it.
"I'm still sorry" He sighs.
"Good" I shrug "You should be"
"I didn't mean to do it Lennon"
"That's what they all say. But guess who's always left in the dust, me" I scoff "And I'll be damned if I let that happen to me again"
"But you're not going to be left in the dust"
"Bullshit, you're already halfway there" I shrug.
"I want to be with you Lennon, I don't know how many times I have to say that before you believe me" He sighs.
"Remember when we first met, and I told you on the beach I wanted to get to know you?" I ask, and he nods "And when you said you didn't want to know me?" I add on and he nods again.
"I remember"
"How about we go back to that? Because I don't want to know you anymore, I want nothing to do with you and I wish you would've kept your word when you said you didn't want to know me" I stand up from the chair.
"Lennon, you don't mean that" He shakes his head.
"Oh, but I do" I nod "I want you to leave me alone" I mumble, walking out to find Kyle "Can I have my phone back?"
"Did you two talk?" He asks with a raised eyebrow.
"Yes" I nod, holding out my hand for my phone.
"Alright here" He hands it to me and I walk over to Brit.
"Hey, what's up?" She asks.
"I'm not feeling too well, so I was wondering if I could go home early"
"Of course" She nods "And let me know tomorrow if you feel better, I can find someone to cover you for the day"
"Thank you" I smile the best I can, walking to collect my things and leave work.
I just need to be alone.

Fanfiction"I want to know you" I mumble, and he chuckles, taking a drag from the cigarettes between his fingers. "Princess, I don't want to know you" "Then what do you want?" I ask, but he doesn't respond. He just puts out his cigarette sending me a wink and...
