i sat on the ground for a good five minutes before pulling out my phone and calling christina. the phone rings a couple of times but no answer. i stared at my phone, now that i think of it i don't have a lot of friends since i got with tyler. i have christina and that's it. the only other person i could think of was daniel, so i sent him a text. i waited a couple minutes, no response.

my last resort was zach but i definitely could not call him especially after what just happened. i decide to just walk home, it wasn't too dark and it was pretty okay temperature although the clouds were pretty dark and it was supposed to rain. it wasn't too far of a walk but still it was not going to be fun.

just as i started walking the rain started, great... it wasn't raining too bad but i knew it would pick up and i wouldn't be able to safely walk home. i would call my mom but she would ask too many questions and i just can't deal with that right now so i did the least logical thing and called zach.

he picked up quickly and we had a brief conversation before he said he would come pick me up. "hey! what happened?"
"can we not talk about it?"
"yeah sure." we sat in silence, you could cut the tension with a knife.

"thanks for the ride." he slightly smiles, "can i call you later? to like check in and stuff." i now find myself slightly smiling. "yeah of course." i get out of his car and walk inside my house, my mom was sitting at the kitchen table. she looks up as i walk inside. "you weren't supposed to be home yet."
"yeah change of plans. I'll be up in my room." she nods and I take that as a cue to leave.

later that night tyler called me to "work things out" although i don't think we will be able to work this out. in the middle of the call zach calls me but i ignore it, tyler was a lot more important right now. after an hour of talking we broke up. he cried, i cried then i ate some ice cream and took a nap.

i woke up the next morning feeling horrible, my eyes were puffy and red. my stomach hurt and i just all around felt sick. i traveled downstairs and told my mom i was sick and that i was going to stay home, she let me stay home when she saw how i looked. she left for work after giving me medicine and ginger ale.

i slept for the rest of the day, that is until someone knocked at my door. i figured it was just my mom but she wouldn't be home until four and it was 2:57. i went downstairs to see zach standing at my front door, he went to knock again so i open the door quickly. "zach? what are you doing here?"

"I- well you said i could call you last night and i did, you didn't answer and then you didn't show up to school so i wanted to make sure you were okay."
"thanks. i was on the phone with tyler. you can come in."

i see him slightly frown but he steps inside and closes the door. "so what happened?"
"um it's a long story." so we sit in the living room and i start talking, leaving out the comparing part of course.
