just friends

a good pit

Real Life

"I don't even know what I'm feeling Kelsey. I care about Neels so much, but it just seems like something isn't clicking. And with Diego, I don't even know." I run my hands through my hair, stressing about all the emotions running through me.

"Look I get that you and Neels had a good thing, and it hurts to let that go, but you shouldn't hold onto things just because you don't want things to change. And if I'm honest with you, I think Diego is so good for you. You seem so much more comfortable around him, with Neels it seemed like you were always on edge, trying to impress him." Kelsey says, sitting at my makeup vanity, doing the final touches on her look.

"I totally get what you're saying, but I still love Neels and Diego makes my heart warm. But I don't want to lose Neels and the idea of being with Diego scares me at the same time excites me. I care about him, but I know his reputation, and how he can be. I mean earlier today he was getting texts from Tana." I sigh, frustrated with the situation I'm in.

"Please drop Neels, and as for Diego you got to go with your heart. I think he would drop those girls for you, especially loose pussy Tana." She rolls her eyes. "What time is Diego picking us up?" I look down at my phone.

"He said 15 minutes, 10 minutes ago. We should probably head down now, he drives like a maniac." I chuckle, slipping my heels on.

Just as I grab my house keys and bag, my phone rings. "Speak of hoe boy, and he appears." I smile.

"Hey Diego, we're about to head down right now."

"Hey baby, all right, I'm waiting for you. I miss you ma."

"I miss you too. See you in a second." I hang up the phone, feeling my cheeks burn with blush. "Alright let's go Kels."

"Alright, all right. Let's go see your mans."

We head down the stairs, and I see Diego standing outside of his car. He walks over to us, pulling me into a hug, then giving Kelsey one as well. He opens the backdoor for Kelsey then opening mine.

"Are you excited for your show Diego?" I ask as he settles into the car.

"Yes, even more so now that you're going to be there." He says, smiling at me putting his hand on my leg, quickly turning to look at Kelsey. "I'm happy you'll be there too Kels!" I smile at him, unlike Neels he puts an effort with my friends. I catch myself staring at him, feeling butterflies in my stomach. Crap, nope. Not good. I have a boyfriend. Who is not Diego, nope definitely not the cute boy sitting next to me, rubbing his hand on my thigh.

"Who else is going? I know Ethan is showing up later, and Jess said she might show up." I say mumbling, not sure how Diego would feel about Jess being there since their recent break up.

"Yeah, I know, she said she would. We've talked about things the other day, and I think we both concluded that we've been more like best friends for awhile now. So, it doesn't really hurt anymore, ya know?"

"I'm happy for Diego, and I didn't mean to bring up a heavy conversation before the show."

"It's okay baby, plus Jess is excited to see you, she keeps complaining that I'm hogging you." He rolls his eyes. "Anyway, where do you want to be during the show? Do you want to be backstage, or in the crowd? If you're backstage you could be on stage behind me and the other boys, and if you're in the crowd I would have security by you just incase it gets a little rough."

"Well we'll see when we get there, get a feel for the vibe. I love a good pit." I smile, holding his hand.
