Three's A Crowd

Chapter 5

Saturday came way too fast for my liking. I was in the bathroom fixing my hair when Katelyn barged into my bathroom. She was panting like crazy and I couldn't help but laugh at her. I rarely see her this way and it's really funny.

"We're suppose to leave in 5 minutes," she panted.

"I'm almost ready," I giggled.

"Dallon and Spencer know what Brendon and Sarah do," she shrugged.

"What do you mean?" I asked her, unplugging my straighener.

"They know that they share girls," she gagged.

"Thanks, Kat. But they've known the whole time?" I questioned, grabbing my apartment keys from the end table in the living room.

"Yeah they've known, but only in our group are they open with it," she nodded.

"Fuck them," I sighed angrily.

"Remember, when we get there you have to talk to him," she playfully shoved me.

"How can I forget?" I groaned.

We climbed into my chevy cruze and I turned the radio up, driving off to the beach. Of course "Chainsaw" by Nick Jonas comes on. I shook my head, secretly thinking it was a sign about everything that's going to happen. I silently hoped things would turn out for my sake. I pulled into the parking lot at the beach and turned the car. I sat there staring towards the water, looking for Brendon. I finally spotted him talking to Sarah and some other girl.

"Are you ready?" Katelyn asked me, touching my arm.

"As ready as I'll ever be," I nodded.

We grabbed our bags out of the car and walked over to where everyone was standing. Katelyn greeted Dallon with a kiss and I sat my bag down on the sand, grabbing my sunglasses out and putting them on. I glanced at Brendon and Sarah, my stomach tightening into knots. I noticed the girl they were talking to. She was a spitting image of gorgeous. Her body was lean, making her look tall, and her skin was slightly tan with little freckles all over it, making her look sun kissed. Her long reddish hair was flowing down her back and when she smiled, she could make the entire beach stop and stare. Brendon grabbed the new girl by her waist and kissed the side of her head. I frowned in confusion and shrugged it off.

"Lia!" Sarah yelled, walking over to me.

"Hey, Sarah," I greeted, hugging her.

"What's up Lia?" Brendon finally joined us.

"Just getting some sun," I smiled.

"We would like you to meet our new girlfriend, Cassie Atwood," Brendon pointed to the beautiful red head.

"Nice to meet you," I forced a smile.

"We just decided we couldn't stop sharing," Sarah giggled uncomfortably.

I forced myself to laugh, before going off to find Katelyn. I had to tell her about the new problem we had. I didn't understand why they dropped me, but I guess I bored them to tears. Cassie looks like a fun person that knows how to get wild. I walked up to Katelyn and pointed to a private area under the lifeguard tower. I walked over there and waited on her.

"What's going on?" She asked me, walking under the tower.

"They have a new girlfriend," I told her, pointing to Cassie.

"Those bastards," she said angrily.

"I'm calling our deal off," I sighed.

"No you're not. You're marching your ass over there and getting Brendon alone. It's now or never," she lectured me.
