Her Heart (1/3)

Chapter 7

"Whats that look?" i ask him.

"Nothing. Im just listening to you go on like a thirteen year old." he replies sounding bored.

"Well i know you better, so spill. What's up?"

He looks at me but doesn't say anything. He reaches for another beer, opens it and lays back on the couch drinking it.

"I hooked up with Kim last night." he says after a while, his tone unchanged.

I chuckle. "Finally. But this isn't how i thought you'd sound when you told me. I thought you'd act like a sixteen year old who just lost her virginity."

"Oh? You imagined how I'd tell you the news?" he asked looking straight ahead, avoiding me.

"Of course i did. Kim is the only person you ever talked about for the past five months. Heck, you even rejected Caroline using Kim. You guys were suddenly dating."

He doesn't say anything. He puts his beer on the small table and looks at me in the eyes. "Did you want me to hook up with her?"

I look at him confused. "Why wouldn't i want you to?"

He folds his arms across his chest. "Because you obviously want her all to yourself."

"What are you talking about?"

He lets out a dry chuckle and looks down before looking at me and speaking. "You know she called me Ryan last night? Multiple times."

I bite down on my tongue and try to keep a straight face so i dont laugh, since he was clearly mad about the whole thing. But because im Ryan and im a fucken idiot, i laugh.

"She what?" i ask my laugh slowly dying out.

"This shit isn't funny Stone! How could you do that to me? Your own best friend?!" he askes shooting out of his seat.

Did he just call me Stone? That was our unspoken serious mode sign, when we called each other by our last names.

"Dude, come on. You're making this a big deal." I say taking a swing at my own beer.

He fumes and i watch him switch into his vampire.

"It is a fucken big deal! Why do you think you're God and you're untouchable? Why do you keep coming for what's mine? You do this shit all the fucken time Ryan and im sick of it!!"

Woah, what just happened? I put my jokes aside and im just as serious as he is now. I stand as well and look at him straight in the eyes.

"Why are you acting like i fucked your wife? She wasn't even your girlfriend because you made that shit up to hurt Caroline. Besides she and I happened months ago, so i dont get the big deal."

"You don't get the big deal? You knew i had dibs on her."

I chuckle. "Dibs? How old are you? Five?"

"You know what your problem is? You think you're better than me. You think im below you and you own that school with everyone in it."

I look down and chuckle. I than take a step closer and look him dead in the eyes so he can see that im not kidding.

"I do own that school. Maybe if you could actually fuck, she wouldn't try cumming imagining that it was me who was fucking her. You're clearly below me because you're the one that keeps trying to be me. You can never be me because no one will play my role like i do. You keep comparing yourself to me and it's a waste of time because at the end of the day, you're the one with self-esteem issues. Not me."
