I watch as Brianna and Jake leave the shop, his hand on her back. I tighten my grip on the steering wheel as he opens the door for her. When she's in she looks over at me. I feel my blood boil.
We're not together...
I try to remind myself this as I drive away quickly.
I look over at Maria in the seat Brianna's been in more than anyone.
"I'm glad to see we're talking again." Maria says in her snarky voice.
"Not for long." I hiss and she rolls her eyes.
"What were you even doing with her?" She asks, her nails clicking on her phone, creating an obnoxious rhythm.
"Mind your business Maria." I groan and she sighs, putting her phone down. I keep my eyes trained on Max's car that's booming with friends.
"It's your birthday Shawn, let loose a little." She puts her hand on my arm which I shake away.
"It's been like 5 days since you've even talked to me. What's your problem!?" She huffs and I decide to not go wherever the fuck these guys are going. I turn the car around, almost hitting another car but I genuinely don't give a fuck.
"Maria, I'm done with you. Completely and utterly done with you." I growl and she laughs.
"So what, your on to your next toy now?" She crosses her arms and stares at me.
Toy.
"No, I'm just finished with you." I hiss and turn the corner sharply, the school coming into view.
"You know what, fine. But I know what this is really about. Brooklyn saw you guys moving shit out." Maria snarls and I pull into the driveway quickly.
"You don't know what your talking about." I growl and look for a spot to park.
"She's just a fucking toy to you. She's just going to play the fuck out of you." I slam the breaks and Maria gasps.
"Just shut the fuck up." I punch the steering wheel and she just sighs.
"If she likes guys like you, than I'm sure her and Mauro would be great." She laughs and I squeeze the steering wheel until it hurts.
"Her and Mauricio will never talk, over my dead fucking body." I yell and turn to look at her.
"Looks like your dead." She shrugs and grabs her bag but I lock the door.
"What the fuck are you talking about?" My face turns a burning red and if I wanted, I could snap someone in half right now.
"Her and Mauro have a bunch of classes together now, including psychology. Thats the one I have with her. Also, astrology, creative writing, art and sociology." She smiles and I furrow my eyebrows. I start the car to park correctly and when I do I turn to look at Maria.
"Maria, as much as I fucking hate you, I need you to do me a favor."

Ben shoves my head after he sees me down his shot.
"You ass! That was mines." He slurrs and I laugh.
"Well now it's mine." I say, bringing Isabella closer to me.
"Isaac, dude, you gotta try this weed." Ben yells to Isaac and Brooke on the couch.
"So many B's." I say, putting my head down on the counter.
"Speaking of B's, Brooke, where's that one chick?" Ben asks, and I dart my eyes at Brooke.
