The Friend Zone

Chapter Four

I woke up the next morning to 3 missed calls and 43 unread messages. You would have thought something serious had to have happened right? Wrong. All three missed calls go to each of my best friends along with 10 where the hell are you texts from each one. 5 texts from my dad telling me he left early for work, and that the stepmonster also left early this morning leaving me and my stepbrother alone. 3 random texts from my mom none about anything important to discuss. 4 from my brother explaining he was taking his girlfriend out today and to cover for him if he was late. The last and most exciting text was from Drew asking if I was busy today.

I responded to my best friends first telling them I slept in and that I wouldn't make it to the mall to hang out today. Next was my brother telling him he owed me and to use protection. I thought a good 15 minutes before replying to Drew before finally sending...

A date with my bed and computer, but if your offering something more entertaining im open for suggestions.

Drew: I don't know if grabbing some coffee is more exciting than a date with your bed and computer but...

Me: LOL, actually coffee sounds great right now! Starbucks in 10?

Drew: Sounds great see you there :)

I hopped out of bed, took a quick shower threw on some black leggings, a pink victoria secret sweatshirt a pair of boots and left. 10 minutes later I arrived at Starbucks, ordered the usual and grabbed a seat by the window. After another 5 minutes of sitting alone the door opened and in walked Drew in a pair of washed out jeans a plain white shirt that hugged his body perfectly and his hair looked untouched as if he just got out of bed only a few minutes ago. To sum it up in one word, Drew looked hot!

"You done checking me out?" Drew asked sliding in the seat in front of me.

"What, I was totally looking at the guy behind you!" I said feeling my cheeks begin to burn.

Drew turned his head in my direction only to be met with a guy who was the definition of old and creepy. Drew smirked as he turned to face me again.

"Sure you were Sage." he sayed winking at me.

"Anyways, I know you didn't ask me out for coffee just to accuse me of checking you out, so whats the real reason im here?"

"Can't I just have coffee with my best friend?" he asked with a smile playing at his lips.

"Spill!" I said with a flat look.

"Okay, okay you caught me. I need advice on something."

"Does it include a certain blonde? " I asked already knowing the answer.

"Yeah, and I need help on how to ask her out."

"You mean getting in her pants?"

"Same thing." He said with a shrug.

"Not the same thing! I will not help you get another girls hopes up that you might actually care for her just so you can get inside their pants then jump in someone else's the next week!" I said while slapping his arm.

"Who cares, it's not like you like Claire anyways!"

"Whatever." I said grabbing my stuff to leave.

"Wait where are you going?" he asked grabbing my arm.

"Home." I sighed.

"No your not, your going to sit back down, finish your coffee, talk to me and like it." he sayed pushing me back to my seat.

"Fine, but no more Claire for the rest of the day. Got it?"

"Got it!"

15 minutes went by of me and Drew talking and laughing untill the coffe shop doors opened again only to reveal the devil herself. Claire.

"OMG, Drew what are you doing here!" she asked her heels clacking against the hard wood floor as she walked over to our table.

"Well I came to get some coffee and noticed Sage sitting all by herself near the window and decided to keep her company."

Ouch, that hurt.

"Well if your done here maybe you and I could go do something a little more entertaining together?" she asked stroking his arm.

"Yeah that sounds great!" he said grabbing his stuff to leave and began walking towards the exit, Claire hanging off his side.

"Ohhh Sage, do you think you could pay for my coffe?" he asked looking over his shoulder at me.

Before I could answer him he had already walked out the door.

I stared blankly out the window in front of me untill finally the tears stopped falling, my hands stoped shaking and my heart finally caught up with my head. Drew denied having plans with me, ditched me and didn't even say he was sorry for leaving. If my heart wasn't broken before it sure as hell was now.
