Break The Best Friends

Chapter 56

My head was thumping as I kept on thinking about what happened at the party the day before yesterday. It was Sunday today, but still I couldn't get the thoughts of what had happened that day in the party out of my mind. It was like every single word that Luke had uttered was inscribed in my brain and they are echoing through my thoughts.

I didn't like it. I came up to my room for some alone time, maybe I thought I could take a nap or something, seeing as it had been about two days since I got a good, peaceful sleep at night. My sleeps have been disturbed and restless.

I thought that I could go watch TV downstairs, but Aaron and Harper were sitting on the couch there, watching a movie, cuddling each other, looking very adorably disgusting. Even just the sight of them being all loving and sweet with each other made me want to puke and I did not like it; I was used to them always bickering and pulling each other's' legs, and to suddenly see them act all couple-y was different. It was a change to their usual self and I hated changes.

I should just ask dad to buy me a TV for myself in my room, that way I don't have to go downstairs and endure my brother and his girlfriend being all sweet. I wanted to do something, but the thing was, I didn't know what I should be doing.

I picked up my phone and scrolled through it, searching for someone to call so that I can concentrate on it and get myself out of thinking about what Luke had told me that day. True to his words, he hasn't talked to me since the moment he walked out on me.

I thought of calling my other friends, maybe Ryder or Kyra or Kade, anyone, but decided against it knowing very well that if I called any of them now, they would think that I was fine again and was not anymore all moody and snappy. That would only lead to them asking me a lot of questions and digging up on what happened between me and Luke that day in the party.

Our friends know nothing about what happened – at least I think that they don't; but considering that Luke had been very vocal that day and that our friends had all been just outside the door of the room where we had talked. I don't really know for sure if they heard everything and were politely pretending they didn't, or if they didn't really hear a thing.

No one had yet asked me about what had happened though, so that was a good thing, I guess; maybe that has something to do with the fact that I had been snapping at everyone that night after Luke left.

That night after Luke had stormed out of the room, he had proceeded to storm out of the party too, not even looking back when our friends called him. I was too upset to talk when they had asked me what had happened. According to them, they think that we had a fight or something and that was it. River had drove me home immediately when he saw that I was about to break down and cry. Good thing was that I didn't. I wanted to cry very badly, but I restrained myself from doing that.

Since the moment that I had gotten home that night, way before midnight that had been my curfew, I had locked myself in my room and lived the vampire life. My mom even thought that I had a hangover and brought me some Advils which I declined saying that I didn't have a hangover. She then proceeded to assume that I am being moody because of something that happened with me and my friends, which is close to true, by the way.

I stopped scrolling through my contacts, when Reece's name came up and I bit my lip, thinking about what I would tell him if I called him now. Sighing, I decided to just call him and get out of my thoughts so that I can think about something else. I know that talking to Reece will distract me from my current thought.

I clicked on the call button and pressed the phone to my ear, listening to the rings as I anxiously waited for him to answer my call. It took him sometime, but when he did answer my call, it was not him who was talking on the other side of the phone.
