The Summer that Changed Everything

Chapter 5

"Seriously, he needs to hurry up." I looked down at the time on my phone. We were waiting on Aaron to finish hitting on a girl we met at the movie. He was trying to get her number, and it felt like he was taking forever. I honestl didn't even find her that pretty. Just a blonde bimbo. But whatever.

"It's barely been a minute, what's got you so ansty to get home?" Chrissy asked curiously. Had it really only been a minute. It seemed like they had been talking forever.

"I don't really know... I just want to get home, okay?" I really didn't know why I was in such a hurry or why I was so annoyed. I had just got done watching a movie with Channing Tatum stripping for me and flaunting his ass cheeks, and here I was, all angry and annoyed.

"Aaron has to wait on us for flirting with guys all the time. I really don't see what the big deal..." She stopped talking mid sentence and seemed to have a big thought forming in her head. A big grin took over her face and she looked at me like she had just heard a secret about me.

"What!?" I said, annoyed.

"Nothing, it just seems you skin is turning a little green." She said with a smirk on her face. I looked down at my skin. She made absolutely no sence to me sometimes.

"What the hell are you talking about?" I angrily asked. She was messing with my head and I didn't like it at all.

"It just seems that you've gotten a visit from a little green monster in the past few minutes." Ohh. I slowly realized what that dumb grin was about. She thought I was jealous. Of that girl Aaron was hitting on. No. She was crazy! I've seen him hit on girls all the time, it never has phased me!

"Me? Jealous of that? As if!" I said a little to defensively. "I've seen him flirt with girls all the time, it's no big deal!"

"Well, you are growing up you know. And he definitely has the past year too. Remember when he was just a scrawny little freshmen? I mean, we can both admit that he has a rocking' bod, even if we don't see him in that way. Or at least I don't." She said in a teasing tone.

"I am not jealous, nor do I have feelings like that of any sort for him. Now drop it, he's comming back. I mean it!" I did not see him like that. End of story. She was crazy.

"I got the digits! And I'm ready to go back to Mag's house and crash. I'm tired." I rolled my eyes, without realizing it. I really wasn't helping my case here.

"Yeah, let's go." I said, in more of an annoyed tone than I had wanted.

"What's wrong with you?" He asked concerned.

"Oh, she's just feeling a little green, sick you know?" Chrissy answered for me with a big grin. Aaron didn't try to think much of it, thankfully and we made our way back to his red and black mustang. The whole way home I was messing with the radio to distract my mind from going back to Chrissy's earlier subject. Aaron was like a brother. No way was I jealous. After contemplating for a while, I decided I was over-thinking things and let it slide from my mind. Before I knew it we were pulling into my driveway.

A new, familiar car was parked in the driveway but I couldn't remember how I knew it. I shook it off and walked up to the house. "Hey Jordan!" I called as we entered the living room. A few moments later, an all too familiar face walked in from the kitchen. It was the owner of the familiar car parked in the drive way. Ronnie. He was one of Jordan's best friends. Also my ex.

"What are you doing here?" Aaron spat out rudely. Ronnie and I didn't exactly have a smooth break up. I was a freshman and he was a senior. He was Jordan's best friend at the time and was at our house all the time. One day when he was spending the night, he made his way up to my room because Jordan was asleep. We talked all night, and he confessed that he had a crush on me and thought I was cute and we ended up dating two days later. With him being quite a bit older, he wanted to advance the relationship much faster than I did. When I refused to sleep with him, he apparently went behind my back and slept with another girl. I broke up with him as soon as I found out and was furious. So was Jordan, being the overprotective brother he is. Him and Ronnie got into a huge fight and they didn't talk to each other for the longest time. One day, I got a call from Ronnie telling me how sorry he was, and how it was the biggest regret ever. I said I forgave him and that we could be friends, but I still honestly didn't like him. He was my first real boyfriend and he broke my heart. I thought I was in love when we were dating. He apparently didn't feel the same. I gave Jordan permission to be friends with him again. They patched up their friendship, and started hanging out again, which wasn't hard since they went to the same college. Aaron and Chrissy still hated him because he had broken my heart, and they knew how much I thought I loved him, which Jordan didn't. If Jordan would've know my feelings, he probably would've killed Ronnie by now.
