chapter 17 (mention of sa)

we walked into my house. bith my parents were away, doing... i don't even know. ada plopped down on the couch. "do you have ice? in a bowl?" she asked, her cheeks stained with lines from her tears.

"yeah, uh, sure. did he punch you?" i asked, getting here a small bowl with 5 ice cubes in it.

she shook her head and when i handed her the ice she put a cube in her mouth and started eating the ice. "my mother says when people crave crunchy or hard food, they're angry or stressed." greg said.

michael elbowed him in the gut as we all shot him a glare. ada's glare was the coldest. "you don't say?" she said, her voice cracking.

i decided to out on a movie. steve, michael, and greg sat on the big couch while i sat by ada on the big recliner i had. "why'd you do it?" she whispered so only i could hear.

"d-do what?" i asked.

"leave me??" she whispers.

i gulped. "i need to know, ty. i could've gotten... i could've gotten r*ped, y'know?? and it would've been your fault. i need to know why." she sobbed.

i sighed. i wrapped my arms around her tight. she pulled away. "tell me, tyler. i'm not your friend right now."

[ada pov]
"tell me, tyler. i'm not your friend right now." i said.

he licked his lips. "ada i left because j was jealous." he says.

"what?" i say, wiping my eye with my jacket sleeve.

"i didn't like you and davy flirting and having a good time." he said.

"why?" i ask.

"because i like you, ada!" he says.
