         “Claire, he’s a player. How can you fall for someone like him? He has a girlfriend, did you know that? He will pressure you into having sex with him.” Scott said and I crossed my arms.

        “It’s not like it won’t be pleasant. I’m not a virgin anymore, Scott. I lost it to Miguel a little over a year ago. There I said it. Josh and Barry knew ‘bout it because they guessed flat out that day when you and Matt were gone at the gas station.” I said and Scott looked at me with anger as Matt glanced over at Josh, who shrugged.

        “So, you would’ve sex with David, even though he’d just walk away from you right afterwards? You’re pathetic, Claire. No, you’re desperate ever since Miguel left you!” Scott yelled at me. He knew the words that would hurt me and I rushed into the house with Josh following behind me.

        “Claire, you know that he didn’t mean it.” Josh said and I walked into the bathroom then locked it behind me. I looked at myself in the mirror. Was I really throwing myself in front of every guy I came across that I thought was handsome?

        ‘Of course I’m not. Definitely not at Matt or Josh. They are the sexiest people I have ever met but they were also my best friends. I don’t want to ruin our friendships. That’s why I set up that boundary between the five of us.’ I thought to myself. I glanced at my bag that I had left there the last time I was over.

        “If he thinks that I’m a slut. Then, I can dress like one as well.” I muttered then changed into a short mini skirt, the lowest cut shirt with a rose, and my stripper boots; not caring ‘bout my scars. They knew ‘bout them anyways. I walked back out of the bathroom. Josh stood there in front of me with a shocked look on his face. I slightly chuckled at Barry’s face. It was priceless, his mouth dropped to the floor. I soon saw Matt and he took a deep breath, then he looked at Scott, who was mad.

        “Look what you made her do, Scott!” Matt yelled and Josh walked away from it all. I walked into the living room with Josh and crossed my arms in front of Scott.

        “I didn’t know that you’d do this.” Scott said referring to my outfit and I shrugged my shoulders.

        “You’re the one who called me a whore and a slut, Scott. You had it coming to you. I’m not desperate or I’d be dating one of my best friends by now. No, you’re the one who’s desperate, Scott. You want me to be yours and only yours. You’re just jealous ‘cause David might be able to take your spot. I know he’s a player but I’m used to the pain and all of you, mainly you, know that is the truth.” I said with no tears, surprisingly. I hated hurting those close to me but he left me with no other choice. Scott just looked right at me with anger filling his eyes. Josh tried to touch Scott’s arm but Scott punched Josh in the stomach, causing Josh to fall on the floor, next to the coffee table.

        “Do not touch me!” Scott shouted then stormed out of the house. I sat down, taking my boots off.

        “I had no other choice.” I managed to say and Matt rubbed my back as Barry helped Josh to the couch. I closed my eyes, knowing that he won’t be coming back anytime soon.

        “His temper always gets the best of him. Can you please go change?” Josh asked and I nodded as I walked back into the bathroom then changed. I had tears down my face as I came back out & Matt looked at me, like he was reading my mind.
