Megan

You know when you've known someone for so long, you kinda think that nothing is wrong with them when they change. I am not talking about a small change. I take all that back, this is not some small change I mean full-on crazy. This fits the description of Megan.

She was my best friend in kindergarten. That's pretty much it for us. Except for the fact that she has tried to ruin my life, not on just one occasion. Several. Several occasions.

Let's go back to kindergarten, shall we? The day I met James, to be exact.

The class was playing altogether. I was building a horse stable with blocks. Megan helped. James, known as Kyle at the time, threw a toy at someone and had to sit on the detention bench.

I had a bad temper when I was younger. This girl named Sadie kept asking me if I needed help. I was getting annoyed. So I screamed at her. Long story short, I was put on the detention bench alongside Kyle.

After time was up to get off the bench the first person I went to was Megan, who surprisingly was upset with me for God knows what. She didn't talk to me for the rest of the week.

I just thought that if she didn't want to be my friend anymore I would find somebody else. That somebody was named, Kyle James Xavier. Yes, James' first name is Kyle. He hates being called Kyle. His dad's name is Kyle, he dislikes how they have the same name. So it's always been James, well to his friends at least.

Megan thinks I stole James from her. This is where her rampage starts.

I never knew she even talked to James. She was being crazy because the moment I started hanging out with James she took every opportunity to try and get him away from me. If James and I wanted to ride bikes, she'd take him to ride scooters. If we had to partner up and I was with James she would have a tantrum demanding that he was her partner. She was doing it on purpose James caught on and started staying away from both of us.

Until around two weeks later. James came up to me one morning and told me to race him on the scooters when we go out to the courtyard. When he walked away I saw Megan glaring at me with full rage. I ignored her. I was reading a book before the class entered the courtyard. James seemed excited and dragged me out there to begin our race. Megan wanted to join, but when I took the last scooter James asked Megan for hers and she instantly gave it up. I figured, she could hate me all she wanted for making a friend. I wouldn't stop her.

Too bad it was a reoccurring trend.

Megan moved later that year, and I haven't seen her for years. We got back in touch through social media. She seemed pretty normal to me. I told her about my life and she told me about hers. She seemed very interested in my friends. I won't lie, I don't have many female friends, it was really just, James, Jayden or Caleb I talk about with her. As we talked more we began to meet up and hangout. She had met Caleb too. Shockingly, he is scared of her. She was trying way too hard to get his attention. I joke about it with Cay but it gives him chills. he's such a baby and tries to act so tough.

Sometimes Megan and I cannot hang out so we video chat. A couple of times Jayden is there with me. She constantly flirts with him, and it is strange. Especially when Jayden directly and clearly said and demonstrated that he has feelings for me. The thing that Megan did not know was that I also kinda had feelings for Jayden. Though, I wasn't even 50% sure...So I would say it was infatuation. Megan's flirting just made the atmosphere awkward.

Now is the part where the craziness clicks.

One day Megan wanted to hang out, I couldn't, Jayden and I were having a day to hang out on our own. Someone rang my doorbell. I expected it to be Jay, and I was dead wrong when I saw Megan at my front door.
