I got back home. Tyler came over.
"Ughh what do you want ?!?" I asked.
"Lauren's mad at me and started yelling so .. I'm not gonna listen to her yell." Tyler said as he ate a cookie .
"Umm do you always go through my fridge and pantry?" I asked. He didn't care. He sat at my dinner table.
"Haha so she's just in your house right now?" I asked.
"I mean yeah.." Tyler said laughing.
"Well she's most likely gonna come here cause she always does after she's done hanging with you." I said. He just started to make himself weird snacks. I really wanted him to leave.
"So Why is she mad? And you can't always avoid problems between you two." I said.
"She's mad... Cause she found a picture of me and Gianna and thought I was cheating on her but I told her it was old." Tyler said. I started laughing.
"Just show her the date of the picture and she'll know it's old .." I said. He agreed to my idea. Then left.
**next day***
Lauren came by to my house. She didn't look so happy. I really didn't wanna deal with hearing about her and tyler.
"You okay?.." I asked. In reality I just wanted to relax.
"Yeah ... Not really! I look in tylers phone and he still has a picture of him and-"
"His ex wife Gianna?" I asked.
"his ex wife! WIFE! I never knew he got married.. He's like 20."lauren said. I didn't know how to reply to her.
"Why are you so worried? He's not with her.. And he probably just forgot to delete all of the pictures." I said. She calmed down a bit. I wonder why she would get so mad even though tyler and Gianna aren't together.
"Yeah I'm .. Overreacting. I'm gonna talk to him." Lauren said then left. Dylan came over. We had lunch at my house. I was making some food. I had a table set up outside. Then tyler rang.
"Hey are you making food? Great I'll join." Tyler said then walked in. I was too busy cooking the food to stop him. I made pasta. I had no idea what was going on outside. Tyler ate with us.
"So Dylan .. I hear you surf." Tyler said. Dylan nodded.
"Must be hard having to teach all these girls in their swimsuits giving all their attention to you." Tyler said to Dylan.
"Well.. Most of my students are in a surfing suit.... And a lot of them are respectful to me." Dylan responded. I could tell Tyler was trying to get something out of him.
"Are you guys dating?" Tyler asked. I rolled my eyes.
"Haha um..." Dylan said.
"No it's a serious question. Cause I wanna get to know you well if you're gonna be dating my... My pal alex," Tyler said as he put his arm on me. I got up.
"I think it's time you leave...." I said to Tyler.
"You know what ., the food was great .. I'll see you around alex.." Dylan Said and left. He probably felt kinda weird from Tyler.
"What are you trying to do?" I asked.
"Nothin. You just had to mention that Gianna was my ex WIFE!?" Tyler said.
He shouldn't be angry.
"What did I do wrong exactly? I'm spitting out facts." I said. He laughed.
"I don't care. Don't spit out things that Should be told by me to her. "Tyler said.
"Well... Why didn't you tell her already. Don't be mad at me if it was gonna come out eventually." I said. He shook his head.
"She was pissed ! PISSED ! Now I have to talk to her about it all!" Tyler said. I didn't care. He's said a lot of random shit to random friends of mine. He left. I walked outside. I heard some arguing as I walked near tylers house. It got quieter though. They probably had things under control. I went to jess's house. Her and Bryce were busy trying to put together this table. I drove back home. Tyler was sitting on his steps. I walked over.
"Umm... What happened between you two?" I asked.
"She didn't speak to me.. That's it." Tyler said. I sat down next to him.
"Haha .. You fucked up big." I said laughing. He laughed.
"With the help of you though let's not forget." Tyler said.
"I feel kinda bad that .. She found out about your ex through me-" I said.
"Nah it's fine. I mean.. If I still told her, she would react the same and still be mad at me." Tyler said.
"Okay great. Well I'll try and talk to lauren to make her talk to you." I said.
I left. I was supposed to help Tyler out later today to see what he should do to make lauren talk to him again. I just got back from a dinner date with Dylan and he dropped me off. Tyler was already outside.
"Back from your date?" Tyler asked.
"Shut up, alright let's do whatever we have to do to make lauren talk to your dumbass." I said then went in his house. We sat at his dining table and started talking. It started going off topic.
"Hey can I ask a question?" I asked.
"Uhh no." Tyler said laughing.
"You jerk!" I said.
"Okay what?" Tyler said.
"Do you plan on marrying lauren?" I asked. He thought to himself. He didn't say anything for 10 seconds.
"I don't know .." Tyler said. That was interesting.
"Hey umm you know lauren really likes dancing.. Why don't you take her salsa or slow dancing." I said. He laughed.
"I can dance casually to like house party songs but I've never done ballroom salsa chips dancing." Tyler said. This man just said salsa chips dancing. I did not want to teach him.
"Here I'll come to your house tomorrow with an instructor." I said.
"Why don't you just teach me? Didn't you used to dance when you were 12?" Tyler said. I was hoping he would forget that. I tried to make up some lie.
"Yeah no I don't wanna teach you." I said.
"Alright .. Anyways , see you tomorrow I guess ?" Tyler said.
"Umm yeah.." I replied. I left. It was kind of weird.
