-Brennen's POV-

"Oh hey Colby!" Violet squeezed out her hair onto the towel wrapped around her body.

"Uh- listen I can explain." I stuttered looking for help that I knew I'd never be able to reach.

"Dude! You just straight up lied to my face? What is this?" Colby lashed out and threw his arms up.

"Hey, hey, hey- what's going on?" Violet tried to stop what was going on between Colby and I.

"I asked Sam and Corey where you were, they said they didn't know. So I came over here and Brennen said he didn't know. But here you are and he lied straight to my face." Colby blurted out not giving me the chance to speak.

"That's super weird. I told Sam I was going over to Brennen's for the night. I didn't know there were any plans. No one told me anything." Violet joined our conversation, "Hold on, I'll get back to you in a minute. Let me go put some clothes on."

I stood there, just Colby and I. "Hey listen man, I didn't know she even told anyone. Maybe she was trying to hide, I don't know."

He unclenched his fists, "Dude- just don't. I'm going back home to go ring out Sam and Corey." Colby turned to the door, not caring about Violet coming back to talk.

"Hey dude, wait. What about Violet?" I tried to grab his attention to stay, maybe he'd care too. It's weird to me. I've never seen him care about a girl so much, and they're clearly not even dating so I don't know what the deal is.

"What about her?" Colby's statement was rhetorical. He slammed the door behind him not giving a shit about what anyone had to say at this point.

"Hey Co- where'd Colby go?" Violet came back out fully dressed this time.

"Uh," I scratched the back of my head, "He left, but I couldn't get him to stay. Hey listen- I'm sorry. I-"

She cut me off. "Brennen, I think I should maybe just go. I seem to be the problem here."

"No, no, no. You're fine. It's just that- that there was a misunderstanding. That's all." I really tried to get her to stay.

"It's fine Brennen. We'll hang out again some time. For now, I'm gonna go. I'm sorry." She grabbed whatever she had brought to my house and left shortly after Colby had as well.

"Bye." I mumbled after the door had closed behind her.
