"Austin which one should I wear, this or this?" I said over to my best friend. He was laying on my bed scrolling through his phone.
"Uhh the blue one, it makes your eyes stand out." I smiled.
"Alright, the blue one it is." I went into my bathroom and slipped on the baby blue slip dress. I was about to go on a date with my boyfriend of two months. It was August 28th, our anniversary. I looked over at my appearance in the mirror and was happy with what I and Austin put together. We are basically neighbors. We live across the street from each other and been best friends our Mom's said since we were two. We are 16 now, my birthday is May, Austin's is April. Yeah I know, its a long time. I walked out of the bathroom and put on my mid black heels. "Alright how do I look?"

Austin looked up from his phone, and gazed me up and down. "You look.... beautiful. Brad's a lucky guy." He rolled his eyes at the last part. Austin didn't really like Brad too much. He never told me why but he just didn't. "Hey my mom wants me back home," he said getting up from my bed and walking over to me. He embraced me in a tight hug, "Have fun on your date tonight."
"Thanks Austin" I said returning the embrace. He walked out of my room to leave me all alone. I looked at the time '6:30'. 'I told him I'd be at his house at 7 so I've got time to spare.' I went on my phone and scrolled through my Instagram feed, liked posts here and there and commented on a few. When I looked up from my phone it read 6:45. 'Welp time to go now.'
I walked down stairs grabbed my car keys and went outside it looked as if it was about to pour.....great. I got into my red and black Camaro. No guys I'm not rich. It was my Dad's old car. He died when I was 6, I'll go into it more later. But anywho, I hopped in and started driving off to Brad's house.
When I pulled up in the driveway I saw his car and another unfamiliar one. 'That's weird' I got out of my car and knocked on the door, "Just a minute." I soon came face to face with Brad, only he was wearing boxers and not dressed for our date.
"Ummm, you told me to be here at 7, was I-" I started but got interrupted.
"Braaaaddd, where are you babe? Why don't we finish that game we were playin- oh," And there it was. Behind Brad was one of the hottest girl's in the school me and Austin used to go to before we got homeschooled in only her underwear and what looks to be Brad's shirt.....Stacy Martin.
"Look Jen, I can explain." Brad cut in stepping in front of the veiw of Stacy.
"What? That you're cheating on me?"
"I was going to break us up tonight.."
I slowly nodded trying to process the whole situation, "I see... well um, there's no need. I'll do it for you." I stated trying not to let my voice crack. I turned around and ran to my car getting in and driving off. Tears streamed down my face as I made lefts and rights through the neighborhood going back to my house. By now it was pouring outside and crying was not helping my vision at all.
