The Corner Cafe [Connor Ball]

Chapter Thirty-Eight

-Kylie's POV-

"Diana?"

The girl, Diana, looked at Connor for a moment, before her eyes and her smile widened.

"Connor? Connor Ball?" Connor nodded and she pulled him into a hug. "It's been a long time since I last saw you! A year ago?"

Connor nodded, "Mhmm, you've changed a lot." He then took my hand and pulled me to his side. "Diana, I would like to introduce you to my girlfriend Kylie. And Kylie, this is Diana, an old friend of mine."

We shook our hands and she giggled, "I'm really sorry about just now, dear."

I dismissed her with a wave, "I'm sorry too."

I used this time to observe her. She's really tall, about the same height as James. She has healthy tan skin and wavy black hair that ends just under her chest. She was wearing a black crop top, a maxi skirt and flats. She was wearing a smokey eye with nude lips. She looked gorgeous.

She looked behind us and waved, "Hey James."

James walked next to me, his arms wrapped around Nicole protectively. Somehow, his posture looked stiff and alarmed. He only nodded, but his jawline tightened as Diana's eyes flicked to Nicole and Nicole cleared her throat before holding her hand out, "I'm Nicole."

"I'm Diana, nice to meet you." they shook hands. "So, where are you guys going?"

"We're just about to take the girls home." James said with a fake smile planted on his face.

"Nice. I've just left a party and I'm about to go home too. Mind if I join the walk?" Diana asked, looking at Nicole and I. We both shook our heads and she pulled Connor's arm, and walked ahead of us. I wanted to ask Connor about her, but before I could pull him back, his hand slipped out of mine and he joined Diana's steps.

♡♡♡♡♡ ♡♡♡♡♡

Connor and Diana walked in front of us, laughing and catching up while James, Nicole and I walked behind them. James was still glaring at Diana's back so I decided to ask him.

"Who is she?"

James sighed before turning his attention to Nicole and I. "She's Connor's ex girlfriend."

This caused me to glare at both of their backs. She was touching his arm and patting his head, and I scoffed at her actions. Then I looked at Connor, who didn't seem to mind her hands touching him at all.

"You don't seem to like her very much." Nicole said, looking at James again.

"I hate her with all my heart. When we all first met her, she was so nice and friendly, and we thought she was the one for Connor; but few weeks after meeting us, she started to flirt with the other three of us behind Connor's back. Of course we told Connor about it, but he thinks we're just jealous because she's with him and not us. One day, the four of us caught her cheating with some guy in the bar and Connor broke up with her immediately. Then she just, disappeared."

I looked at him with shocked eyes. Connor never told me anything about this Diana girl or any of his past relationships.

"So she's like, a whore?" I asked. I don't want to judge someone by what I hear about them, because maybe she'd changed; but I can't help but feel like she's bringing trouble to Connor and I's relationship.

"What does she want now? Get Connor back?"Nicole asked no one in particular, angrily.

"I don't know but we'll see how things go." the three of us sighed and continued to follow them.

♡♡♡♡♡ ♡♡♡♡♡

"My house is that side." Diana told us, pointing at the opposite direction of where we're going when we were waiting to cross the road.

"Well, I guess this is goodbye." James said, faking a frown.

"Here's my number, we should meet up with the other boys soon." Diana said, slipping a piece of paper in Connor's hand.

"It was nice to meet you, Kylie and Nicole!" she said before waving goodbye and walked away from us.

Connor sighed and turned his attention to the three of us who was glaring at him. "What?"

"Don't 'what' us, man." James snapped, putting a protective hand around Nicole's waist and my shoulder.

"Hands off my girlfriend." Connor said, wanting to pull my body to his side but I stood my ground and stayed in James' arms instead. "Kylie, what's wrong?"

Nicole scoffed, "Oh, so now she's your girlfriend again? You know, I though Diana's your girlfriend, seeing how you didn't mind when she touched you and you snapped when Kylie touched you."

"You probably still have feelings for her, do you?" James added. Connor was obviously taken back by our actions.

"Of course not! Why would you say that?"

"The fact that you ignored Kylie the whole time we were walking because you were too busy talking to Diana just now?" Nicole stepped into the conversation once again.

"If you were in my shoe, and you haven't seen an old friend of yours for so long, you guys would've done the same thing!" Connor defended, obviously annoyed.

"Pfft, old friend my ass. She's your ex girlfriend who cheated on you." James snorted.

"Guys." I spoke for the first time. "Can we just go back? I'm tired."

The two of them scoffed and Connor was looking at me with pleading eyes. James pulled Nicole's arm and Nicole linked her hands with mine before the three of us walked home with Connor following behind us quietly.
