I was really upset with what happened. Lauren's really close with me but now... She obviously hates me. And I can't just be with someone after my friend just had a breakup with them. I didn't check my phone for messages cause I didn't wanna deal with people.
**next couple of days***
Lauren still didn't say anything to me back. My mom was in the kitchen making breakfast.
"Hey... What's up?" My mom asked.
"Umm nothing just ... Hungry." I replied. As I was barley touching my food my mom started asking me stuff.
"Hey tylers mom and me and our other friends are going to a spa today." She said. I didn't really care.
"Yeah okay cool." I replied. She gave me a weird look.
"Hey umm .. Are you friends with tyler?" She asked. I didn't say anything for a couple of seconds.
"Umm I don't really know .. Why?" I asked.
"Just wondering. .." She said. I didn't say anything. She left. I watched tv.i haven't even spoken to Dylan for some time. I went to get the mail. A car rolled by. It was Lauren. I could see Tyler answering the door. I'm couldn't tell what they were saying. They walked over to me. I tried to leave but they came to fast. She was pointing at me.
"Why?! Why did you have to date me for all that time even though you liked her !" Lauren said to Tyler. He rubbed his face looking stressed out.
"Look Lauren I don't wanna deal with this-" he said.
"No !! I want answers!" Lauren said.
"Pretty sure we went over this .. But umm I don't know okay! I did like you. But i guess not as much as I like her." Tyler said talking about me.
"Look Lauren.. I didn't even know he liked me still.. I'm not even going to date him I .. I don't like him!" I said. Tyler looked at me.
"Look I don't wanna end things on a bad note with you Lauren. I'm sorry. I think you'll find someone who's better and not a jerk like me .." Tyler said. She started to tear up. I tried to comfort Lauren but I guess she still hates me.
"I guess i can't do anything about what you like or not. But I don't wanna end things off on a bad note with you too Tyler. I unm hope you have a great life. And umm I know you can't do anything about people who like you Alex." Lauren said. She left. I couldn't tell whether she was pissed or not before she left. She drove. Me and Tyler then made eye contact. I walked back to my house.
"Hey." He said. I turned around. I really didn't wanna hear anything.
"So I guess you don't like me ?" Tyler said.
"Ummm I don't like you ok." I replied. I was just honestly so pissed off at him I didn't like him.
"Ok ... I understand. But I at least wanna still talk to you and be friends.. So ..?" Tyler said. I hesitated and thought about it.
"Uh yeah sure .. Friends it still is ...." I said then went inside. It was more like friends but I won't really talk to you. This whole situation was pretty weird. A couple days later we had this new girl move in around our house. She looked about my age. She was moving stuff in with her mom. My mom brought them over to have lunch.
"I'm Alex , welcome to the neighbourhood!" I said to her.
"Thanks, oh I'm Olivia. I really like the vibes around this neighbourhood!" Olivia said. (Olivia will look like lily Collins). I showed her around the neighbourhood. Other neighbours went to meet her. I went back home and took a shower. As I was driving to Jess's house I could see Tyler talking to Olivia. After I came back from Jess's house I went to the gas station. I pumped up some gas. A car rolled by.
"Oh shit .. I'm not following you by any means.." Tyler said as he got out the car. I went to pay and walked out to my car. I drove back home. I went to the beach to just relax. I totally forgot how Dylan still works there. I didn't talk to him for like a week so it makes it seem like I'm avoiding him. I didn't see him but then I saw someone walking out of the changing rooms. I could see him walking to me. Great !...
"Hey.. I'm surprised to see you here." Dylan said.
"Yeah .. I just wanted to relax and clear my mind." I replied.
"Listen I hope your not mad that I didn't text you for a week." I said. He was probably gonna finally confront me.
"What do you mean? I've gone 3 weeks without texting this girl I dated. We all have lives so it's understandable." Dylan said. Luckily he wasn't mad. We started talking and clicked back from where we left off. I arrived back home.
** next day**
I was at the beach. I then found out Dylan wasn't Gonna be there in 2 hours. I didn't mind that much only cause I could just lay in the sun doing nothing. 20 mins goes by.
"Hey brooks .. Are you sleeping? Haha!!!!" Tyler said. I sat up.
"What ? No .. I'm just relaxing ... Why are you here?" I asked. He sat down.
"Uhh I'm waiting for jake and Jaden to come here. We're playing volley ball." Tyler said. We just started talking about random stuff and volley ball. It was nice to just have a regular conversation with him.
"You wanna play volleyball with us?" Tyler asked.
"Honestly .. Probably not cause I'll beat your ass." I said. He laughed.
"Don't even !! I'm way better than you!" Tyler said. I shook my head laughing.
"So .. Umm how's life." Tyler said.
"Life's good." I replied as I looked at him. He turned to look back at me.
"Haha okay .. That's cool..." Tyler replied.
"Oh the guys are here .. Well I guess I'll see you around brooks."Tyler said. I continued laying down. An hour passed by and Dylan was gonna arrive in an hour. Jaden came to sit with me.
"What's up ?" He asked.
"Umm just relaxing." I replied. I haven't spoken to Jaden in quite some time so it was nice talking to him.
"Ok you know what girl I've been talking to , Maycee?" Jaden asked. Oh great.... I already know what he's gonna ask. I honestly don't know why everyone wants me to help with their relationships.... Mine never went well.
"Uhh honestly ... I've lost track with who you're with." I replied. He laughed.
"At that party.. She has brown hair... Well anyways .. Her birthday is coming up and I wanna throw her a little date." Jaden said. And let me guess.. He wants me to help organize it.
"Yeah yeah I'll help." I said.
"Just don't tell anyone cause... My guys will make fun of me." Jaden said. I agreed.
