The Life of a Lynch

Chapter 6

Rachels POV

After the movie Ty and I were walking out the theatre doors hand in hand. All of the couples were walking out together, which left Alison and Damion walking alone. 

"Hey guys! Why dont we all head over to Get Shaved for a little while?" Riker asked, looking at the whole group.

All at once everyone started talking. "Yeah", "sure", "ok", "sounds good to me".

I looked up at Ty. "You want to go?" I asked him. I didnt know if he was exactly feeling up to it or not, considering how he acted during the movie.

"Yeah. We can," he said looking down at me.

I smiled. Maybe his "jealous" attitude was over. "Ok. Let me go ask Damion if he wants to ride with us," I told him leaving and walking to where Damion was standing alone.

"Hey," I said and he looked over at me. "We were just wondering if you wanted to ride to Get Shaved with us?"

"No. Thats ok. Besides I already texted my mom to come pick me up," he said then looked down. 

"Oh...OK. See you tomorrow," I said then walked back over to Ty. We got into his car and started driving to Get Shaved. The ride was quiet until I finally spoke up. "Hey! Since you dont have class tomorrow, maybe you could stay the night with me?" I asked him, with a smile.

"You know, I think it'll be good for me if I stayed at home tonight. Just to, um, catch up on some stuff. Because you know the wedding kind of delayed me getting some stuff done." There was a long pause before he spoke again. Both of us were staring straight ahead. "Yeah so I'll drop you off with Ry and Kelsie and then I'll head back to my place to get started on that."

My eyes got wide as he said this. "What?! Ok. Whats going on, Ty? Ever since the movie started youve been acting a little strange," I said matter of factly, crossing my arms and looking at him.

"Its just...just..." He said looking over at me. "You know what nevermind," he shook his head and looked back to the road.

"No tell me. We need to talk this problem out," I told him, leaning against the car door.

"Well this 'problem'," he said using air quotes on the word problem. "Is this Damion guy."

Ok so maybe his whole jealousy thing hasnt gone away. "And whats 'problem' with Damion?" I asked him, mimicking his air quotes.

"I just dont want you hanging out with him all the time. Thats all," he said. 

I was a little surprised on how he had nothing to add to that. "Why. You think I'm going to leave you for him or something?" Ty said nothing, he just drove. "Thats it isnt it?" Again he said nothing. "Ty, I can assure you that nothing is ever ever going to happen between Damion and me. Hes just a friend who replaced you and Ry."

"Huh. So he replaced me? Yeah totally sounds like nothings going to happen. Or is happening already."

"Oh my gosh. Ty! Nothing is happening! How many times am I going to have to tell you that? I can be friends with a guy and not date him, and your oppinion doesnt matter. I can be friends with whoever I want to be friends with!"

"I just dont want to be one of those guys who gets cheated on. Thats all."

I let out a half laugh and leaned back agaisnt the seat with my arms crossed. "Heh. You still dont believe me... You know what heres an update for you. You cant controll my life."

"I never said I could controll your life. I just dont want you hanging out with Damion."

"Ok. You know what forget Get Shaved! Pull over, I'll walk home!"

"Good!" he yelled as he pulled off to the side of the road. I opened the door and got out, then slammed the door shut. Ty rolled down the window before he drove away. "You know maybe I never wanted you in my car anyways!" And with that he was gone.
