Friends?//Hayes Grier

chapter thirteen

I'm 13 years old(:

*************************

HAYES POV

"She doesn't want to be my friend?" I choke out. I can't loose Chris. No no. She's my best friend.

"Nope, and you know why?" She asks coming closer to me. I give her my full attention again, and she takes a deep breath.

"Because she hates us together, so she hates you for making such a bad decision. And because she has secret feelings for you, and she knows it can't happen. So she knows the best thing to do is ignore you" she says quietly grabbing my hands.

Chris has feelings for me?

"O-Oh" is all I can stutter.

"The best thing to do, is to prove to her you've moved on right? You have me" Christina says smirking. I nod, unsure. But I decide to go along with it. That's why she was crying ! Because it was hard for her to let me go when she had feelings for me! It all make sense now.

We head into our next class, and saw Chris sitting in her normal seat. I hesitantly sit next to her, and she ignores me. As much as I hate to say it, Christina was right. The rest of the day blows on by, and Chris doesn't bother to text or call. I can't believe Christina was right.

The next day at lunch, Christina was acting a little too flirtatious. Chris was staring at me and her, and I could tell she was really jealous. I ignored her.

"So Chris we're going out tonight, right?" I say glancing from Christina to the real Chris.

"Sure babe" she says smirking. Chris looks at us and rolls her eyes.

"If your trying to make me jealous, it's not working. But keep trying, your doing great!" Chris says sarcastically and gets up and heads towards the vending machine. She comes back with her favorite soda, Orange Fanta.

Christina looks at me and rolls her eyes before saying, "Hey Hayes guess what? I'm going to Malibu this summer, and we have the biggest house and it's going to be so fun! Maybe you should come" she finished it off with a smirk.

"Hey Christina" Chris says and all eyes land on her.

"What?" She asks putting her chin on her hand probably wanting some compliment.

"Do you ever think to yourself and say 'hey what would a slut say right now?'" Chris says smirking. That was a good one. What am i saying? She's making fun of my girlfriend.

"Stop it Christiana" I say giving her a hard, dirty glare.

"Only if you stop first, Benjamin" she hisses, giving me the same glare I gave her.

She knows not to call me my real name. But I also know not to call her by her full name. I guess i kinda asked for that one. I roll my eyes and continue to eat. It is pretty silent, except for the few, faint, side conversations going on between the rest of everyone sitting at our table. Christina, Chris, and I were all dead silent.

When we get up to dump out our trays, Chris bumps Christina's shoulder causing the remains of her lunch it spill all over her.

"Watch where you're going, fat ass" Chris says looking at her food spill everywhere, and then turns around and walks away. I have to say, Chris does have good comebacks, and I'd be the last person to mess with her. If I was a girl of course. I know Chris can take Christina down in a second, and it looks like that is what's happening. But I feel torn. I want to go on Chris's side, but I also want to stay in Christina's side.

I help Christina get cleaned up, and we headed to our lockers, where she spotted Chris pulling books out of her locker, and putting them in her bag.

"Hey Christiana" Christina asks, smirking. She walks over, and Chris turns to look at her. Chris knows she's going to say something bad, so she's going to say something first.

"Need some guidance? Turn around and go out those double doors. Take a plane to New York City and go to the nearest strip club" Chris snaps, causing Christina's eyes to go completely wide. That was a good one, I will admit.

"Why don't you?" Christina asks, smirking with a hand on her hip.

"Because I'm not the one wearing a push up bra to push nothing up" she says scoffing. Okay that was really good. I need to stop liking Chris's comebacks.

"Well want to see something?" Christina asks smirking. She turns to me, and kisses me aggressively, and sloppily.

Now Chris is a tough girl. You have to really get to know her, to see right through her. And I saw Chris's heart shattering, looking like she was about to break down in tears. I desperately wanted to stop, and bring Chris into my arms. After what seemed like forever, we pulled away breathlessly.

"Your a really good kisser, Christina. Well you should be, you had a lot of eleven year old experience with that twenty year old, right?" Chris says smirking before walking away.

Christina's eyes go wide. I don't know what it is, but I like Chris's bad side. It makes me want to dump Christina completely and go right to Chris. Wait.. So does that mean.. I like Chris? But i thought i like Christina? I thought about it, and now I know the one and only person I like.

I like Chris.

A/N:
