One step ahead

Paisley Flint

Dylan's POV
"Was there a point you suspected Paisley?", "yes there was, at the homecoming dance last year". "Tell us the story".
   Homecoming was quite the time for me besides the fact the Paisley actually agreed to go with Micheal the stupidest guy alive, Alex and Kelly we're going together and I was worried about Kelly but also Kory was going even though she said she was sick, it was a crazy event.
My mom was going crazy making Alex wear a tuxedo and stuff and he was enjoying all the attention as usual. I didn't care for that stuff but I was excited to see Kelly, Kory and Paisley weirdly I've been realizing how much I like Paisley I was even planning to as her to the dance but which would've sucked had she said yes because Kora said she would go am Im so stupid who do I even like , it's just like when Alex cheated on Kory.
I got a call from Kelly

Kelly: Hey where are we meeting?
Me: in the entrance in front the gates
Kelly: cool :) is Alex ready?
Me: psh no.
Kelly: what a sweetheart, Paisley isn't ready either
Me: what's she wearing
Kelly: someone jealous ;)
Me: psh no bye.
Kelly: wah didn't even ask what I'm wearing lol bye.

At about 7:00 pm we all met in front of the gates and everyone looked great Kory wore a black long dress and her choker and I wore a black loose shirt and dress pants, Kelly wore a purple short dress, Paisley wore a green dress with that had a sort of turtle neck like how I wear and Micheal had a dark green velvet tux I suck at describing just saying.
   "Looking hot" Micheal said to Paisley who looked uncomfortable "thanks" she smiled genuinely. "You both look pretty" Alex said to Paisley and Kelly. "You look so handsome Alex" Kelly said turning red. "Who came here for the food?" I laughed kinda tired of the couple mush. "Me!" Kory said rushing inside pulling me, I smiled, she's so wacky.
"Pay-Pay come dance with me" Kelly said pulling her away from Micheal. "What's the deal?" I asked Micheal "I know you like her dude but you have a girlfriend okay so chill yourself" he said pushing me. "She's a friend moron" he laughed "Kay but if that's true you wouldn't mind if I date her", "I know the stories you piece of shit" at that he winked and went to dance with her.
As they danced I saw her look more and more comfortable and I was confused I sat there sipping my punch, she looked at me before she kissed him on the cheek, spat out my punch okay I see how it's gonna be I got up and danced with Kory until she looked a bit uncomfortable, "I'm sorry can I go outside?" I went with her.
   "Dylan there's something I need to tell you" she says, I frowned, " I'm sorry I didn't mean too just" she looked confused "it's not about you liking Paisley" she laughed "I don't!" I yelled "yeah whatever, it's about me... I like Micheal" "what??" So I didn't see that coming "Yeah and um.. Paisley likes Alex" please just bury me alive . "Why did she kiss Micheal?" "Because I told her I was going to tell you" she frowned "when did this happen?" I asked "right after she said yes to Micheal, I got jealous and I asked her why, but she only said yes to see if Alex would get jealous" she sighed "we have to stop this" I said immediately "yeah but first I need to..." "to?" "Sorry Dylan I'm breaking up with you" she frowned "what..." I had no words "you don't like me and I don't like you anymore it's useless, plus we've only got drama going on, it's not gonna be the five of us as a normal group anymore" I stared at her not saying anything and she left.
    I went back inside being all depressed until I saw Alex, he smiled "Kelly can you go get some punch I wanna talk to my little bro" he grinned. Kelly smiles and goes to the punch bowl.
"Don't look so nervous, I'm not gonna bite" he smirks devilishly, "you have before" I retort. "Listen you piece of shit if you or Kory blow my cover I'll kill you both so don't mess with me, got it" Alex spat, "yeah, your still hurting people though Alex..." I realized that I was shaking with fear and I pulled upright and cleared my throat "look Kory broke up with me and..." he cut me off "haha wondered how long you two would last" he joked, "anyway your plan is working and it's messing up everything" I reply "Paisley's into me" he laughed "damn who isn't at this point, isn't it great to be me" he boasted. "Stop It you're not gonna cheat on Kelly" I got upset "she's messed up you know, whatever you do will hurt her mentally"
"And do you think I care Dylan? I'm tired of your outlook on life, you don't just get happiness, you make it one your own" he turned my head towards Paisley "you see that girl, she already told me she likes me" he smirked and I blinked what??? "Are you lying?" "No and you know what Dylan you think you know people but you don't have a clue" with that he danced with Paisley he's right everyone is just putting on an act.
