Chapter 12
It’s that awkward moment, when you realize you may just be in love with your best friend. How could this happen? I mean, obviously I know I can’t have AJ and Brady both. All I wanted to do right now was just jump off a cliff. Make it easy for everyone.
I buried my face into my pillow, tears soaking into it. My make up from last night was not washed off and crying only made it smudge and stain my pillow more, but I didn’t care. I didn’t care about anything right now. My life was shattered into a million pieces and there was nothing anyone could do. It was messed up enough before, but now there’s nothing to live for.
Really, it doesn’t matter what feelings I have for Brady anymore. I’ve played him and messed with his emotions so much that he’ll probably never believe me. Then there’s AJ…I don’t even know what to think about him. Feelings may have changed…I just don’t know.
The thing is both of those guys affect me. If I lose either of them, I am incapable of doing anything. I can’t live without both of them. AJ…Brady…both so different, but both make me feel alive.
Who did I come back for? That’s easy, AJ. But who comforted me through the toughest part of my life? Brady. More tears streamed down my face. I felt a twinge in my stomach just thinking about this. I yelped and clutched my stomach, gasping for air. I was so upset that I was literally making myself sick.
I cried in pain, knowing no one can hear me. I was losing my breath quickly because I was screaming and crying at the same time. I tried to settle myself down and just breathe, but it wasn’t working. It was just getting me more hyped up about the whole situation. I got up off my bed and snatched my phone off my nightstand and dialed the first number that came to mind. Monica. I needed someone who would maybe have an understanding of what I was going through. I also just needed someone who would just listen and help me through this.
Hello? I heard Monica’s voice ring through the phone. I tried to settle down to just get out a few words. “I’m sorry Monica, but…” I let out a slight, painful sigh, and then continued talking. “Can you come over? I need you right now.” I couldn’t help myself, I broke into tears. Oh my god! Amber! I’ll be over there as quick as I can! You sound horrible! Lay in bed, I’ll be there! Then she hung up. I threw my phone onto my bed and hugged my pillow tightly to my stomach. The pain was unbearable. I couldn’t take it.
My head pounded with a horrible headache, my stomach felt like it was being stabbed with a knife over and over again, my heart throbbed, and the room was spinning. I closed my eyes shut tightly and continued weeping.
After about five minutes I heard the door open downstairs, then slam shut. Footsteps traveled up the stairs, and then my bedroom door opened. “Oh my god…” Monica shook her head, her facial expression sympathetic. She set a bag down by my bed and sat me up. I looked at her and she continued shaking her head. “Oh, Amber!” She gave me a huge hug. I embraced her and cried, probably staining her shirt like I did my pillow, but she didn’t seem to mind. “I’ll ask questions later. Right now, we need to fix you up.” She said. I nodded. “Sounds good to me.” I sniffed.
