*UNEDITED

"What time did you come home last night?" my mom asked while she poured the milk to the bowl full with cereal.

"11pm, you were sleeping" I rubbed my face because I was still tired. She nodded and gave me the bowl of cereal for my breakfast. I took a spoon and played with the cereal because I don't have any appetite. 

"Are you okay, sweetie? You look sad" my mom decided to sit besides my stool and showed her mother's side.

"Yeah, I'm fine" I lied.

"Just to remember, you can come to me if you have any problem, okay. I'll be here" she put her hand on my shoulder. I nodded and didn't say anything. She left me alone in the kitchen.

I took my hone out of my pocket, and I saw a message from Matt.

Hey Beth, I was worried because you ran to the house after that kiss. Are you okay?

~ Matt Lanter

I took a big sigh, then I decided to reply his message.

Hey, I'm fine. You don't need to be worry.

~ Bethany Moore

After I send that message, I thought is the best way if I talked to him about last night, because last night was epic until he kissed me. I told him I don't want to have a boyfriend or anymore drama but he just made a new drama in my horrible life. I unlocked my phone, opened the message, and texted him again.

Can we talk? Meet me at the park at 3.

~ Bethany Moore

I took a big sigh and pressed send. I don't even know why I took a big sigh before I pressed send, maybe it's just hard for me to excepted the truth about what happen last night. I stood up, walked away from the kitchen, leaving the bowl full of cereal on the counter. I decided to go to my room and got ready for my hard day.

Megan's POV:

" I just can't believe it! She chose Matt over me, is she out of her mind?!' I took a big gulp of the beer that I ordered at The Nite.

"Maybe she has a lot problem right now, babe"  Zach said behind his phone.

"Well, if she has a problem or problems, she should come to me, but no! She went to Matt first! And she said that I always turned every conversation to me. Can you believe it she said that?" I still on my angry voice.

"Well... you kind of are" 

"Excuse me?" I raised my eyebrow.

"Sorry" he took down his phone and he leaned forward, "but you kind of are. I mean come on we were talking about my basketball team problem and then you change it to about your fight with Bethany"

"But your basketball problem is not that big like my problem with Bethany"

"See, that's why Bethany doesn't want to come to you, because she knew that you will do this, like what you do to me right now"

"Yeah, but you're not like Bethany. You didn't avoid me and yell at me"

"Because I'm your boyfriend, I know you, I understand you, and I accept you the way you are because I love you, so I just listen to your problem because I know you need me right now, but she's not me. She's a girl and she's  your best friend that sometimes still can hurt you. You have to change and start to listen to her, don't change the topic to your topic. Maybe if you change and you show it to her, she would want to come to you for friend's advice" he leaned back to the chair.
