Chapter 23. Truce?

《AJ's insta up top I made》

÷Masie÷

Finally. It's Monday again. When will the school year end!? I step out into the living room and see Kara on the couch on her phone. "Morning, you're up early." She looks over at me and then looks back to her phone. "Hey, something wrong?" I ask.

She turns her phone screen to me and I see a picture of AJ and Diana kissing. "Oh please, it's not the end of the world," I say to her, taking her phone. I go to AJ's Instagram and block the account. I had her phone back and she takes it, shutting it off.

"I'm sorry Masie, I'm just so pissed off that he would do this to me ya know?" She says, standing off her spot on the couch. She walks back and forth, biting her nails irritatingly. "Kara, AJ is an arrogant asshole and you need to learn he's not good enough for you," I say, slouching.

She nods quietly to herself, "you're right, he's not worth it." I nod in agreement. She sits back down and stops biting her nails. "What do I do if I see him today?" She asks nervously. "Just play it cool, act like you don't care so he won't come running back to you," I tell her.

I hear a voice groan from down the hall. Shit. I turn and see Trystan in his clothes from last night walk out of the guest room. Kara's eyes go wide and I jump off the couch, running away from her as she screams. "What the hell is he doing here!?" She yells at me. I hide behind Trystan and he squirms.

"He helped me get you out of the party last night!" I yell back. "So you let him stay!?" She screams, stomping forward to look Trystan in the face. "Get. The. Hell. Out." She states at him, getting all up in his business. "Kara you could at least say thank you," I say to her.

She narrows her eyes at me and sighs, "fine thank you." I walk out from behind Trystan and raise an eyebrow at Kara. "Are you sure you're okay now?" I ask her, trying to get reassurance. She nods and sticks out a hand to Trystan. "Truce?" She says. Trystan shakes her hand, "truce."

I'm glad they are starting to get along even though Kara probably wants to kill him. Kara takes a few steps away from him and she stands next to me. "Okay, I don't want any fighting today," I say to the two of them. They both nod.

It's been thirty minutes and I'm still not out of biology yet. This is bullshit how long this takes for her to write out stuff on the board. It's like she's a zombie. I hear the bell ring and I jump out of my seat, dashing to the door. I leave the class and walk to the parking lot where Kara is standing with Trystan.

Ah. Breath of fresh air to see them get along. I walk over and get in the driver's seat. "Where to for lunch?" Kara asks. "We're going home to eat, I need a nap," I say, pulling out of the parking lot. I start driving home and we eventually arrive. Parking the car I feel my phone go off and see a text from Mikey.

I chuck my phone out the window and Kara flips shit. "What did you do that for!?" She yells at me. I look at her, "I don't feel like having to talk to him, he's annoying." I say, getting out of the car. Kara and Trystan get out and Kara picks up my phone. Surprisingly enough, it's not cracked. Great. She hands it to me and I put it in my pocket.

"Let's eat, I'm starving," I say, walking inside. We get inside and I walk to the pantry, grabbing some chips. I set the chips down, sitting at the counter while eating them. Kara sits beside me and Trystan stands across from us. Kara sighs before standing, "I'm gonna take a nap. Haven't slept well recently." She says.

I watch as she walks to her room and closes the door. I turn back to Trystan and he's stuffing a hand full of chips into his mouth. "So you two are on good terms?" I ask him, eating another chip. "Yeah. I suppose, she is still a bit upset that I'm around again." He says, finishing his mouth full of chips.

"Trystan can I ask you something?" I say, setting my arms on the counter. He nods, "why did you cheat on Kara anyways?" His face goes to a serious expression and he shrugs. "I'm not quite sure actually. I just got all hung up on relationships and Kara just wasn't fulfilling my needs I guess?" He says.

I blink a few times, "Trystan. You're a good guy but, Kara is a little innocent puppy. A sweet, sweet puppy and you are the evil owner who never listened to her, and you left her for another puppy. A slutty puppy in fact." I say, using metaphors to help him understand. "Jeez Masie, a little harsh much?" He says, standing straight.

I shrug before going back to eat my chips. "You deserved it." I say with my mouth full.
