Boys Like You- Anna Clendening

     "You keep up the battle with me, I'll show you what a war is like." I growl into my voice changer before hanging up. I was being Rumble again. I'll never stop being Rumble. It was a call just to scare Max, but it would probably just make him angrier. Maybe that's what I wanted. There was a race tomorrow and maybe if he does something to Rumble again it will knock some sense into Wesley. It will make him think about how Max needs it. The race tomorrow. I shake my head. I don't even have a bike. My suit is gone too. Dave took everything.

     How am I going to race when I don't have anything to race with? "Come on." Wesley says but I just stare out the window pretending I didn't hear him. He still hasn't answered me. About getting revenge on Max. I mean, I understand why it's a hard decision for him to come to, but I don't know how much longer I can wait to decide. "Hey, come on." He says but I ignore him again. I wasn't trying to make him mad, or maybe it was, I didn't know at the moment. I've already decided to talk to Alex and now it's too late to back out.

     I already told Alex to meet me before the race tomorrow. I was right yesterday. He waited at the apartment building for me to come back so he could talk to me. I pretended to be doing something and told Wesley to go on inside and he did, leaving me alone to talk to Alex. Thankfully. I was trying so hard not to shake when I stood in front of him to tell him. I just hope Wesley doesn't find out. I mean, I don't think it's a bad thing but I wouldn't really know, I've never dated him before. "Selene." He says but I pretend to be lost in though still.

     "Hey." He flicks my arm making me jump and send him a glare. "I said come on."

     "Come on where?"

     "I don't know. I just thought we could go for a drive." He says nodding toward the door. "So come on."

     "I'm not in the mood for 'going on a drive'." I mumble looking back out the window. It probably wasn't even a drive. He was probably going to kidnap me and drag me out to the forest area before leaving me there. I mean if I knew me that's what I would do.

     "Selene. Come on." He says. "It's just a drive. It's not a big deal."

     "I just don't want to go anywhere right now Wesley. I'm tired."

     "That's why we'll be in a car. You can sleep if you want to." He says but I just shake my head. I didn't want to go. I didn't really want to be alone with him today. I feel like it will be awkward. Or maybe I'm making it awkward by being stubborn like this. "Callie's coming." He says and I push off the wall.

     "Why didn't you just lead with that?" I ask shaking my head. "Gosh, boys are so weird." I walk past him grabbing my hand bag and walking toward the door.

     "You don't want to be alone with me do you?" He asks and I freeze with my hand on the doorknob. He's figured it out. Uh oh. I look over my shoulder at him.

     "Why would you think that?" I ask with narrow eyes. I was pretending to be clueless. I knew it was bad, I just didn't know what else to do. I wasn't good with relationship stuff. Obviously I'm not a pro. I'm a girl with two identities and he knows both but I still haven't told him that I am both. I am both Sel and Selene. Blonde and black. I don't know when I'm going to tell him. I think- I think I'm too scared to tell him. I'm scared of what his reaction would be. Besides. He's thinking about Max and what to do. I don't want to distract him.

     He can't afford to be distracted right now. I can't afford to be. "It's about yesterday, isn't it?" He asks and I face him shaking my head. I was going to argue but I close my eyes taking a deep breath. I don't need to argue with him. Everything is going to be fine. I raise my hands opening my eyes again.
