CYRUS'S POV

"Cyrus, Tj is downstairs" Eric said knocking on my door. I let out an annoyed groan and sat up.

"I'm not here" I replied.

"The least yo-"

"Please Eric, tell him I'm not here, that I'm sick, just tell him something that makes him go away" I said quietly looking up at the ceiling.

"Well, ok Cyrus" He replied softly walking away from my door. I didnt want to talk to Tj or Jonah, They argued over me like some fucking object, and yeah I could care less about what they think of me but there not gonna just use me to get a good grade. I looked at the canvas resting against the wall and smiled just because of the sight of it.

I got up and grabbed the canvas putting it on the wooden Easel in the corner of my room. I begun to paint letting my mind go blank.

~(Twenty Minutes Later)~

While I was painting I heard a buzz coming from my phone, I looked over at the nightstand and saw that Andi was calling me. I wiped the paint from off my hand and made my way to my phone answering it.

"Hello?"

"Hi Cyrus, can I come over to talk to you" Her voice sounded like she was either about to cry or just finished crying.

"Yeah sure, everything ok?"

"No" She said as she let out a sigh "I'm kinda already outside," she said. I looked out the window to see her standing at the door. I hung up the phone and made my way downstairs opening the door for Andi. Her cheeks were stained from tears and her eyes were a light red, she gave me a weak smile and without saying any words we went upstairs to my room. I closed and locked the door behind and she sat on the floor resting her back against my bed.

"What's wrong?" I asked cautiously sitting next to her.

"It's Jonah"

"Of course it is"

"What did he do this time?"

"Nothing, as usually"

"Then why are you crying over him Andi?"

"Because he's done nothing! He's just there taunting me Cyrus!, He knows how I feel about him and I know he dosent feel the same way anymore" She said with her voice breaking between nearly every word she said.

"I'm not good with this feelings thing Andi, but maybe you should move on" I said not knowing what other advice to give her.

"I've thought of that and it's just, who would I move on to you know,"

"No I really dont"

"I mean move on as in don't try looking for someone else, just take time to yourself" I said most likely repeating some sappy movie that would make me gag. She smiled resting her head on my shoulder making me a bit uncomfortable.

"Thanks" She said pulling her phone out of her pocket and putting it up to her ear.

(This is all Andi talking up until the ~)

"Hello?"

"Hey TJ, whats up?"

"Yeah Im at his house right now" My eyes widen and I began to shake my head gesturing her to tell him I'm not with her. She looked at me and nodded her head slightly mouthing the work ok.

"Yeah, he's feeling sick though" She said quickly. "I have to go, see you later" She told Tj quickly hanging up the phone.

~

"So what was that about?" She asked me turning her body in my direction.

"Dont worry about it" I said turning on the TV.

"You sure Cyrus?"

"Positive" I replied giving her a fake smile. She looked over at my painting then gave me a sorry expression.

"I didn't mean to interrupt you" She said admiring the painting.

"It's fine i was getting bored anyway" I lied.

"It looks amazing Cyrus, I could never paint something like this I just do crafts stuff"

"Thanks" I said quietly.

~(Later That Night)~

I reached under my pillow and grabbed my journal and pen and started to write.

Tj and Jonah acted like five year olds fighting over me today like I was a toy. It pisses me off how they did it not even asking how I felt or if I even wanted to be there partner they just want a A.

Andi was heart broken over Jonah and I think I helped, feelings were never really my thing to talk about. She even came over and started crying to me about him.

I yawned putting my journal back under the pillow and slowly drifted to sleep thanks to my medication.

~(The Next Day)~

I had been avoiding Tj all day along with Jonah, Avoiding Jonah was harder because he was in every one of my classes and he always tried to talk to me. I walked into math taking my usual seat. Tj had gotten there early and started to talk to me while I got ready for class.

"Hey, feeling better? I haven't seen you all day" I ignored him rolling my eyes. "Did I do something wrong?" Before he could ask me another question the teacher began to ramble on about the test.

"Is it because of yesterday?" He whispered to me. I rolled my eyes again not looking in his direction.

"I'm sorry about that Cyrus, we were being dumb" He said.

"Whatever" I responded. From the cornor of my eye I could see a stupid smile that crept on his face.

"Is that you accept my apology?"

"If you want it to be now shut up" I responded.

"I'm sorry too" I heard Jonah say from behind us. I hated that I could never stay mad at those two.

~(After Class)~

Jonah and I waiting outside of the classroom so Tj could get his test. He walked out of the classroom with his head down holding the test with one loose hand.

"I got a B!" He exclaimed quickly changing his expression. He looked like a dog when they hear their owners car outside. He picked me up into a hug squeezing me tight.

"Put me down" I managed to let out.

"Sorry" He said out of breath.

"Well congrats Tj, you did it" Jonah said punching his arm.

"Yeah you did it Tj, good job" I added

"We did it!" He said looking at his paper then ruffeling up my hair. The rest of the day he couldn't help but brag about his B to all of us, he even came over to Eric and Ryan's house showing it off to them.
