"How could you say that?" I gasp jokingly.

Sudder rolls his eyes playfully. "I'm just saying that Dave Grohl was better in the Foo Fighters. I don't think he really got much attention in Nirvana."

I nod a slightly. "He was perfect in both bands. The fact that he was in two legendary bands is amazing."

Sudder smiles. "You're really different from the girls at our school, you know that?"

I nod, with a smile. "I was raised as a tomboy, so I don't really act like a girl sometimes." Sudder laughs.

Sudder is trying to keep my mind off of Jai and Hunter, and so far, is succeeding.

I really should stop surrounding myself with guys if there is this much drama. But on the other hand, if I surrounded my self with girl friends, it would be even more drama.

Sigh.

I scroll through my phone on my couch, with my legs draped over Sudder's, and my dad's making dinner.

"What are we watching?" Sudder asks.

I scrunch my face up. "Are you kidding me?"

He chuckles. "It That 70's Show!" I say dramatically.

"If there's anything Floyd is serious about, it's That 70's Show." my dad, Andrew, calls out from the kitchen.

I smile, as does Sudder, which for some reason, takes me to memories with Jai.

His perfect smile, that lip piercing, the way his eyebrows raise playfully when I joke with him.

I miss him, and it's only been about three days since we last talked. But if I remember correctly, if you have feelings for someone you should talk/hangout with them at least once a day.

"Dinner's ready, it's on the table. I made spaghetti. Your father and I have a meeting to go to, so we'll be gone for a few hours." Matthew says as he walks up to us.

"I love you, sweetheart. You have school tomorrow, so I expect Sudder to leave within a few hours. Don't try anything funny." my dad says the last part to Sudder jokingly.

I chuckle slightly, but Sudder seems to not realize that Matthew was joking, and looks scared shitless, which makes me laugh even more.

"Sudder, he's joking." I say.

He immediately relaxes. "Ohh. Okay, Floyd and I are just friends." he says with a reassuring smile.

My dad laughs and nods. Andrew dad goodbye to me too and they leave.

"We should go to a party." Sudder bluntly says.

I roll my eyes playfully. "We have school tomorrow."

"Yeah, but it's Friday tomorrow. So it doesn't really matter." he shrugs with a smile.

"Parties aren't really my thing." I say.

He smirks. "Then what is your 'thing'?" he asks.

I shrug. "I don't really have a thing. I like to think there's more to a person than just one thing."

Sudder smiles, and leans closer. "Can I be your 'thing'?"

My eyes widen, and before I can react, Sudder collides his lips with mine, making me feel extremely uncomfortable.

Just as I'm about to pull away, trying not be rude, I hear a familiar voice.

"Floyd..?" Jai says faintly.

I pull away hastily, and look up at a well dressed Jai, holding a bouquet of yellow roses.

"S-Sudder?" his voice raises.

"Jai, what are y-you doing here?" I ask, still in shock.

"Forget about it," he says, fists clenched. He throws down the bouquet of roses on my lap. "These are for you." he mumbles, and storms out of my house.

I sigh, and rest my head on my hands. "I'm sorry." Sudder whispers.

I shake my head hastily. "It's not your fault. I mean, kind of, I don't like you like that.." I say faintly.

Sudder nods slowly. "Do you want me to go?" he asks.

I sigh, " I just need time to thing about things and calm down. So yeah, I think that would be best. But that doesn't mean we can't still be friends." I say, standing up from the couch.

Sudder nods, and plasters an obvious fake smile across his face. I smile back, meaning to be sincere. He gives me a hug, and walks towards my door.

I plop back down on the couch, exhausted for no reason except the fact that my life consists of boys and drama, which is unfortunate.

I pull out my phone from my back pocket and click on Jai's contact name. I press call, and it begins to ring.

As soon as I think he's going to pick up, it goes straight to voicemail.

"Hi. This is Jai, and I'm not here at the moment, so while you wait for me, you can go suck an ass. Thanks." Jai's amused voice plays through the speaker.

I roll my eyes, but smile a little, ignoring the fact that Jai probably hates me.

I begin to think, why did Jai arrive with flowers, and was nicely dressed?

How the hell did he get in my house?

Why should he be mad, when I couldn't even explain what happened, AND the fact that he's been ignoring me for three days.

If Jai isn't going to answer my calls, I'll just have to go and find him.

Swiftly ignoring the fact that I'm fighting for a complete jerk.

My jerk.

Not yet, at least.
