Best Friends are Supposed to be Forever

Matt arrives to take us to get food.

"Where are we going?" I ask.

"You said to surprise you, so that's what I'm doing." Matt answers while keeping his eyes fixed on the road.

I just sigh and sit back again the seat in the car.

I can still feel Cameron's lips on mine. What happens if he tells Ariana? She would hate me forever. As if on cue, my phone starts vibrating. It's a call from Ariana. Shit.

Matt glances over and nods his head for me to answer it. If only I had told him right away then I wouldn't be in this awkward position to have to chose whether to answer the phone or explain the story now. Ugh.

*Phone Call*

Skylar- Hey Ari

Ariana- Yeah, hi. Do you have anything to tell me.

Skylar- Ummmm...about what?

Ariana- Everyone on Twitter is calling you a slut. They say you're cheating on Nash with Cameron.

Skylar- What?! No, I broke up with Nash, and even if I didn't, I would never take Cam away from you.

Ariana- Then why did you kiss him?

Skylar- He told you. Listen, I-

Ariana- Actually he didn't tell me, the paparazzi did. The guys are famous now, they have people watching them every second. A picture of you kissing my boyfriend is all over the news, social media, papers, everything.

Skylar- I am so sorry Ariana! I just got caught up in the moment. It just felt right at the time, but it was a big mistake. I'll never do it again, I promise. Cameron is yours.

Ariana- You think a little "I'm sorry" will just fix everything? Everyone knows about it. About 1 million people heard about it before I did. How do you think that makes me feel?

Skylar- I'm sorry. We're best friends, and we have been forever. Please, forgive me?

Ariana- You really this we're still best friends? You little bitch! Go steal someone else's boyfriend, because mine is off limits.

*End of Phone Call*

I didn't even realize Matt had pulled the car over.

"What was that all about?" Matt asks being very concerned.

I'm not going to cry. I've done enough crying in these past few years. I've gotten too much sympathy from too many people. I'm done with being the girl that everyone has to protect. "I just want to go home. Can we rain check on lunch?"

"Of course."

"And by home, I mean back to Canada."

"With your 'dad' that beats you up? I don't think so."

"Matt, please. I can't be around you guys anymore. I never should have let you guys talk me into staying with you the first time. It's just better this way."

"I'm not going to argue with you, but I want you to know that you're making a big mistake," Matt sounds serious, yet devastated. "What about Shawn? You won't see him as much."

"Either way I won't. He's on tour, remember? Anyways, he's probably too busy worrying about his fans to even think about me," I don't mean that as being offensive towards his fans, he just seems to care about them more than his own sister. "Just stop trying to talk me out of this and drive."

*******

It wasn't as long of a drive as I expected, but it was a long drive since we weren't even that close to Canada. I did sleep most of the way here too.
