"Hey! I said I was sorry!" Carter said for the fourth time.

"Acting like a douche to me in front of three hundred people isn't cool!" I say with a little bit complaining in my voice.

"I didn't mean to do that! I thought you fought her first!" Carter said, while driving his fingers through his hair.

"Is it because you didn't want to be seen or think that other people would assume that we were friends? I thought we were! Friends stick up for each other Carter! You know how hurt I was today?" I explain with anger.

"I do!"

"I don't think you do! When we hid in Amber's home, I thought I was living a better life than I was at ho-" I explain as I hold myself back from saying what I was going to say.

"I liked it when we hid in her home!"

"I knew you would! But would you rather live at her house with me for a day or stick up for me?" I fight back. My breathing got heavier and I was getting pissed off fast.

"Oh my god! Wren, calm the hell down! It was one mistake!" Carter said as he shut down his computer.

"A mistake that can piss me off! That's a mistake that shouldn't have been made!"  I said while putting away my mop.

"I'm leaving. You're being overdramatic," Carter said shaking his head.

"You're being an idiot!" I yell at him.

"Goodbye!" Carter yelled while closing the café door.

I run to the employee section of the café and collapse onto the ground. I let the tears flow from my eyes and I'm devastated. He was right. I was being overdramatic and most likely ruined a friendship with him. I don't even think he is a crush anymore. He seemed like a douchebag.

I call Claire and she seemed concerned.

"Wren! I've called you fourteen times! What happened?" Claire asked.

"C-Come to the café. Please," I say while whimpering.

"On my way," Claire said while hanging up.

I cried on the ground for a solid five minutes before Claire entered. She rushed into the back where I was and saw me crying on the ground. She immediately ran up to me and hugged me.

"Tell me what happened," Claire said softly.

And so I did. I told her what happened and she was shocked on what I told her. Her eyes widened by every detail I told her and her mouth dropped towards the end.

"Carter did that? You don't deserve him!" Claire said calmly.

"This might sound stupid, but he's right," I said covering my eyes.

"Wren! He literally tore your heart out and stepped on it. Besides, you were right and he was right," Claire stated.

"I need to talk to him," I say, clenching my fists.
