The New Kid

Chapter Eighteen: Restart

Addison stood there, with her hands cupped around her mouth. Sophia stood beside Addison, with her left arm around Addison's shoulder.

"Addison." I managed to say. "It's not what it looks like."

"Not what it looks like!" Sophia said, mocking me. "Don't you dare make that excuse to her! You purposely went and met up with Sydney, and you didn't think that he would try to make a move on you?"

"Sophia, I'm sorry-"

"No Parker. You fucked up real bad."

Addison stood beside Sophia and did not make a sound. She stared me down with anger and sadness. Sophia was right, I did fuck up. But Sophia was speaking for Addison. For all I know Addison could be thinking; "Parker it's okay! I love you!"But I could be wrong. Addison could actually be thinking; "What the fuck is wrong with you? I left for a hour and you're here making out with Sydney?" I may never know at this point.

I shifted my eyes over to the park bench where Sydney and I sat, and Sydney was gone. I looked back over at Sophia and Addison. Addison and Sophia were walking over to Sophia's car. I grabbed Addison's arm and turned her around and made her face me. Addison's blue eyes lost their sparkle, they looked dull and sad.

"Don't touch me Parker." Addison said, as she tried to get out of my grip.

"Please Addison!" I said practically screaming. "Don't do this please."

"Stop Parker."

"Parker!" Sophia snapped at me. "Let her go!"

I shifted my eyes to Sophia quickly. Addison jerked her arm away and ran to the passenger side of the car. I started heading back to my car, giving up. I heard a slam behind me and an engine roar, as Sophia's car raced passed me. I paid no attention to the car, my heart was broken. I sat down in the driver seat of my car. I felt my body sink into the leather seat, like my heart just did. I turned on the engine and drove down the street and turned right onto main street.

When I walked into the house I found Alex and Sophia carrying down bags from Addison's room. Alex looked over at me with disappointment and anger. Sophia was looking at me with pure hatred. Sophia took the rest of the bags from Alex and walked out to her car. Alex slammed the front door and crossed her arms.

"You are real fucking dumb, you know." Alex said in a seething voice. "You just did the most dumbest thing ever."

"Yes Alex. . . I know." I said with exhaustion. "I should of thought it through."

"Damn right, you should of thought it through!" Alex raised her tone, into more of a apoplectic voice. "You should of known Parker!"

"Yes Alex I-"

"I should of known that Sydney would try and pull a move?"

"No I-"

"No, I'm done Parker!" Alex ran up the stairs into her room, slamming the door behind her.

I walked up to my room as well and shut the door behind me slowly. I walked over slowly to my bed and laid down. I felt the tears roll down my face, as I laid there. I really fucked up. I just lost the most important person in my life. I know I may be sounding over dramatic, but Addison was actually the most important person in my life. Addison was the first person where I could just be myself. She gave me butterflies from the first look she gave me, when we first met. She was beautiful and had a good heart. But I, Parker Ferris just lost it all.

I laid in bed through most the night, restless. I couldn't fall asleep, so much was going on. I could barely take it. I wish I could've restarted the whole day again and rethink my stupid choices and I would of still been with Addison. With her in my arms right now.
