Vlog Squad {Dom DeAngelis}

Attention

~You just want attention, I knew from the start~

Dom texts me back, his reply as long as mine. 

'I just said I slept over at your place. It's not my fault they took it the wrong way. And wait, you have feelings for me? I thought you wanted to just be friends.' There is a shrugging boy emoji at the end.

I shake my head and call him. 

"I guess you got my text." Dom says quietly when he answers.

"You lied to my friends." I snap. "Any feelings I might have had for you have diminished."

"I didn't lie. I literally told them I slept over." Dom sighs. "Look, Ally, I get that you're mad. You have some right to be. But you can't just say shit and then tell me you have feelings for me."

"I'll make this easy on you, Dom. I don't have feelings for you. I'm going to Texas for my birthday, and I'll be gone for five days." I sigh. 

"Are you coming back?" He asks quietly.

"Of course. I have my dream job; I'm not leaving because of something you said." I roll my eyes.

"When do you leave?" 

"I leave two days before my birthday. I really need a break." I sigh. "I have to go. Goodbye, Dom." I hang up before he can answer.

"You're a heartbreaker, Ally Murphy." Scott laughs.

The next two weeks fly by. I don't talk to Dom at all, except for the times he sends me a cute animal video with the words 'don't you wish you had one of these' to which I only reply with laughing emojis. 

The day I leave to fly home, David drives me to the airport. I thank him and get out, shuffling into the airport.

The entire flight home, I think of Dom. I hate the way I left things with him, but I can't get attached. 

My dad picks me up from the airport, my stepmom and youngest stepbrother with him.

I throw my arms around them when I see them.

"I missed you guys!" I exclaim.

"We have a surprise." My dad steps to the side to reveal Gaven, in from New York.

I scream and throw my arms around him. "You're fucking here!" I exclaim.

He squeezes me tight before pulling away. "Bitch, you better give me all the juicy details."

That night, my stepbrother and I curl up on my bed at my dad's place.

"So you and Dom? How's that?" Gav asks.

"Fucking terrible." I sigh. "He lied to Scotty and Toddy about me. I really thought I liked him. He's such a jerk."

I hand my phone to Gav and show him pictures of me and Dom.

"Look. I found this one the other day." The picture is from the night Dom slept over. I'm asleep, but my head is still on Dom's shoulder. He's smiling and his head is resting on mine. We look really cute. 

Gav echoes my thoughts, saying, "You guys look really cute."

"I know." I pout. 

"Look, Al, he cares about you, right? You care about him, right?" I nod. "So just make up."

"I can't make up with him!" I exclaim. "My pride is at stake."

"Don't be stubborn." Gav laughs.
