Tahlia's p.o.v

It's been a week since I've gotten back. Things are weird...different, not how they used to be.

Summer has a new best friend, her name is Rosie, Dylan pretends not to know me anymore, Riley and Summer have completely torn apart... It happened all so fast.

Today at lunch I sat with a few different friends... Liana, Nancy, Zaiden and Jack. Yeah.. Zaiden and Jack the 2 'dicks' from 2 years ago are now so fricking nice to me, like who thought?

I sat with them because I didn't feel wanted in that group. I don't blame them at all, not one bit, in fact I want Summer to be happy..

It's the end of the day now and I'm dreading what Summer is going to say to me.. I sit on my bed, grabbing out my phone and opening her message. She was mad.... I felt it was best this way.. maybe not for me but for her. She'll never understand why... but I do.

Our fight went on for long, long minutes. One thing she said really hurt. It didn't just heard it stung, like someone stabbed something into my heart.

She had told me the 'truth' that Joey never liked me and she was just trying to stop me from getting hurt by giving me false hope. I don't hate her for it, She's mad and probably trying to get it out. It's okay. I get it, I manage to hurt everyone that I care about most. Soon the fight ended. We are no longer friends. I felt empty...lost and needing urgent help. I'd have to deal with it.

How did I manage to lose all my friends? Dylan, Summer, Tayla even Riley.

Coming back here.. It didn't help anything.. nothing at all.

I decide to text Dylan.

T- Dyl?

D-...You didn't do anything.

T- Then why are you treating me like this!?

D- look..I don't know okay!

T- Let me help you Dylan

D- I don't need help, you do!

T- yeah...Dylan. I do.

D- I'm coming over.

I throw my phone down on the bed as I sit there staring at the wall. I'm not mad... just in pain..terrible pain. I told Summer I'd never leave but I did. I left. She probably partially knows why I had to leave but maybe not..

" Tahls..." Dylan sighs as he walks to my bed and sits down next to me.

" Summer and I just had a fight" I sniffle.

" You're friends still...right"? He gently smiles. I slowly shake my head as another tear falls down my cheek.

" Woah-I uh-I thought you guys would last forever" Dylan sighs.

" Me too..." I shrug.

" It'll be okay" He nods.

" Will it"? I look up at him.

" I mean look at me, I'm in a new friend group, I hate my ex and I just lost the closest friend I've ever had"! I huff.

" Tahlia. I'll be here for you... I always will" He sighs as I wipe my tears away.

" Thanks Dyl" I gently smile before he walks out the door and back to his place.

Through all of this not once did I think of Joey.. I think I am finally and thankfully over him.
