"Date already!" We shot up and Mariyah along with Tyler, walked in.
"Why did you let yourself in?" I ask.
"Because I'm rebel" she says.
"And she has no patience" Tyler adds.
"And we want to know how your date went!' She adds, as mariyah sits beside josh, Tyler beside me.

"you guys are annoying" josh says.
"I get that a lot" mariyah says.
"not surprised" he adds.
"tell us!" tyler shakes us.
"it was..." josh was lost for words.
"great" I say.
"did you guys talk?" he asks.
"yes" I replied.
"any lips?" mariyah asks.

"I'm going home" josh says, standing up. "you two are really annoying! Tyler I don't know why the hell your being like this! just stop!" he walked out the door and then exited my house.
"you guys are so annoying!" I say.
"josh told us that" mariyah says.
"now he's upset thank you!" I say.
"we didn't mean to make him upset! we just wanted you two back together!" Tyler says sadly.

"well it's not happening! no matter how much I tell josh I love him, he won't take me back!"

The next day I rang josh to ask if he was okay. he didn't pick up. they must have really upset him. I guess maybe it all brought memories back. I sighed and got my camera out.

there was a knock on my bedroom door
I knew who was there. I didn't reply.
so they opened it themselves.
"what mariyah?" I roll my eyes.
I was sitting at my desk writing down some band stuff.
"hi" she say quietly. that's odd. she's barley ever quiet. what happened?

"I just wanted to say I'm sorry. for being a bitch yesterday. I shouldn't have acted the way I did and it was wrong of me. Sorry" she says.
she was about to leave but I said "wait"
I got up and shut the door. I stood in front of her. she was really small and was up to my chest. she had her head down low and wouldn't look up.
"are you okay?" I ask her.
"Im fine" she mumbles.
"your not fine" I say.
"I am. I always am" she whispers.
"what's wrong?" we sat on the bed and she kept her head down.

"mariyah you can tell me. I won't tell"
still nothing. I didn't know what to do.
"it's good to let your tears out" I say referring to what she said to me once.
then she started crying. I did the best friend job of comforting her.
"me and tyler has a fight and he ran out and I'm scared and it's all my fault!"
"what was it about?" I asked.
"me and you. how I was annoying you to much yesterday. and then how I need to stop getting involved in your personal life" she cried.
"hey, we'll find him okay? he couldn't have gone far" I say.
"what if he has?"
