"Hey can I talk to you?" He says. "Uh... I'm kind of in the middle of a shift" I say. "Can you take a break?" He asks.
A few minutes later Adam and I are sitting outside. I can't believe he convinced me to take a break like an hour before my shift is over.
"So I don't really remember what happened a few nights ago at our date.. but did I imagine or was Shawn Mendes at your house at 3 in the morning pushing me out?" He asks.
Oh my god.... "No I don't think that happened." I say. I can't believe this is happening.
"What?" Brittney screams. Adam moves aside and I see Brittney standing behind him. She looks angrier than before.. and if before I thought she is capable of killing someone. Now she will.
"Sorry.." She says in a nicely voice. "Hey uh, B can I talk to you?" She says. "Yeah sure.... Adam I'll be back in one sec" I say. FUCK!
Brittney and I go sit aside where Adam cane heat us. "Did he just say what I think he said?" Brittney looks pissed. I'm so scared.
"No..." oh my god what did I get into?
"So what did he say? I heard him saying that you guys went on a date the other night and Shawn kicked him out in 3 in the morning.. is that not what he said?" She asks. She tries to act calmly but I can see that she's pissed.
"Ok.." that's it. I'm dead. "Yes he did say that." I say. Fuck. I'm doomed.
"Ok..." she says waiting for an explanation. I have no idea what to say. I'm completely clueless. "Is that what really happened?" Suddenly she looks so sad. I want to cry. "Yes" I say barley speaking..
"Ok, and what happened next?" She asks. I can see the tears filling her eyes. I feel so bad. I'm ashamed. "Nothing" I say. I can't tell her what happened that will kill her.
"Ok, so why did Shawn push Adam out?" She asks. I feel like In an investigation. "I don't know" I can't believe I'm lying to her.
"Hey Michelle your break is over" Jamie the manager said to me. I look over at Brittney and I feel so shitty. I go back inside and I see her from the clear glass she walks away.
I go back to my station, I'm the cashier. It's not as fun as it sounds. "Hey" Adam says walking back in. "Hi, look I'm sorry for all this. Seriously I don't know what is happening lately.. I'm so sorry" I say.
"No need to be sorry. It's just that I woke up the next day at my house and I remembered going over to your place. And I also remember that Shawn Mendes was there.... that was crazy." He says.
"Yeah..." I say awkwardly "ok so the real reason I cam was because I just wanted to ask you out again. I don't really know what happened last time.. it was crazy I swear I remember Shawn pinching my ear and pushing me outside.... but I think I'm over reacting. He would never do that. Right?" He asks.
"Right." I say fake smiling in shame.
"So do you want to go out tomorrow?" He asks. Wait seriously? "What?" I ask confused.
"Oh and not to a party again... let's go have dinner or go to a movie. Oh we can also go to the park" he says. He looks really excited. I don't know what to say.
"I— I don't really —" - "Look, I don't really know what I did wrong last time we went out but I really had fun. And I want to go out with you again"
"I— this is" I don't know how to react. I want Shawn. Not to be mean, I don't want Adam right now. I have Shawn. But after this whole Brittney thing... I don't know if Shawn and I could even happen. "Sure" I say.
I feel my head going in circles and I feel lost. I have no idea why I just accepted going on a date with him again. I also need a break from the whole Britney thing it's just eating me alive and I'm scared. Maybe going out with Adam will help me to feel better.
"Cool. So I'll pick you up tomorrow at 8?" He says. "Sounds great" I say. What? I answered him too quickly. Sometimes I just don't know what I'm doing....
