You Complete Me- Dylan O'Brien

Chapter 6

After we're seated, the tension seems to settle down.

I'm talking to Brent again, Amber and her date are laughing at something, and Missy and Dylan seem to be back in their own little world.

I couldn't help but steal glances at him every so often but each time I would look over, I would get more furious.

Missy would demand Dylan do things for her, like, and I quote "Dylan take the paper off my straw and put it in my water, I don't want to risk breaking a nail." Then, when Dylan refused to do it, she would get super mad at him and not talk to him for a while.

What made it worse was the amount of stupid ass pictures she wanted to take and wouldn't even let him eat once the food came.

First she demanded that he take pictures of her with her food, then her posing near the front doors of the restaurant.

By the time they got back and were seated again, he looked like he was going to flip his shit, but to no one's surprise Missy was not done taking pictures.

She started taking selfies with him and was loudly saying "Baby kiss me in this picture! Come on just do it! It'll take two seconds."

That actually took more like ten minutes and by the time they were done, most of us were halfway through our meals.

What fucking nerve did she have. He wasn't a goddamn slave.

The biggest question I had though, was why he was even with her in the first place.

The rest of us finish our food and begin talking again while we wait for Dylan and Missy to finish.

I turn to Brent and he whispers, "Alright Marina, let's get real here. There's something going on between you and Dylan. Both of you have been stealing glances at each other the entire night without the other one noticing. So tell me what's up, and please don't hold back because you think I'll feel bad"

"Oh... well I don't even know. When we first met I was drawn to him for some reason  but didn't want to admit it to myself, because I don't usually feel that way about other people and I heard some bad things about him. You know it's that kind of stereotypical bad boy shit."

We both laughed after I said that, but then Brent smiled and said, "I can tell you still like him Marina, even with him dating that other girl."

I press my lips together and shrug. I guess Brent was kind of right. 

"That's totally ok, don't be ashamed, in fact, I've actually been getting serious with someone else, and I was going to tell you at some point tonight anyway" Brent explains

I let out a small breath of relief which he notices and chuckles.

His eyes then squint a little and a small smile appears on his face. "I have an idea. How about we make your boy jealous and see how much he can take before he cracks"

"Oh Brent, we're going to be fast friends I can just feel it" I reply smiling evilly and we both do a little high five.

Dylan's POV

Missy is such a bitch, I can't even believe I agreed to go out with her. The only reason I am is cause her asshole brother Zayn and his jock friends threatened me.

Apparently Missy slept with the entire football team, so no one wants her now, so all she does is complain about being lonely.

Once she heard about me coming to the school, she wouldn't stop talking about me, and how she had to have me.

A few of the guys from the sports team and Zayn pulled me into the locker room and slammed me against the wall. I tried to fight them down, but more of them came out of nowhere, so I just stopped fighting them and waited to see what they wanted.

They said I had to date Missy otherwise I would lose all my friends and they would make sure of it. They also told me if anything went wrong they would "beat the shit out of me."

I didn't care so much about the friends part, because no one here was particularly interesting.. well besides Marina... but I couldn't fight them and risk getting kicked out of another school, so I had to agree

I didn't even want to go on this double date with Missy, but she said if I didn't she would tell her brother. 

We got there and she dragged me in by my arm and I was just about ready to say fuck it and walk out, but then I heard that small laugh and it snapped me out of my rage.

I turned my head and there she was.

The girl that has been on my mind. The girl that I realize made life feel more tolerable.

There was Marina, standing there looking absolutely beautiful. After being around her for weeks, I realized she was truly an amazing person, even though she kind of stopped talking to me. I don't know why she did that, but all I wanted was to be able to talk to her more again. 

When I looked at her, she had this cute smile on her face, but it vanished when my 'girlfriend' decided to open her stupid mouth.

After her uncalled for comments Missy was quick to burry herself in her phone, most likely texting some guys from another school.

I looked back up and my eyes met Marina's. I was glad to see her there, relieved even.

I couldn't help but admire her, so I took the time to slowly look her up and down, not caring she was watching.

As I do, I notice her sister, her sister's date, and her looking at me very confused, but I didn't care.

Just then a women came up to us and took us to our table.

Once we sat down, everyone became occupied in conversations with their date, but Missy was still on her phone and her only conversation with me was some superficial thing about herself.

I go on my phone, hoping it would help me forget about this shit situation, but it only helps a little bit. 

Between Missy being a fucking brat and my jealousy watching Marina and her date, I couldn't help but get mad. Who the hell is this guy she's with and why are they getting along so well.

He's probably just an asshole trying to sleep with her. Just thinking about what he might do to her makes me totally furious.

I was more angry than ever and Missy decides to ask me to take the fucking paper off her straw so she didn't risk breaking a nail.

Who the fuck did she think I was? I don't take demands from people. Her spoiled ass can take the paper off herself. 

I said no to her, and she threw a fit and said she wasn't going to talk to me which I didn't care about, but then did five minutes later, telling me about some lame party she wanted to go to.

She then started to demand that I take pictures of her and threatened to tell her brother if I refused to do that too so I did what I had to. Even when our food got here she wouldn't let me eat until she had the perfect pictures.

Finally she was done and I picked up my fork to begin eating, but Missy yells in my ear "Baby kiss me for this picture! Come on just do it! It will take two seconds."

I roll my eyes, but do as she says, not wanting to stir up anymore drama for the others actually enjoying their time.

By the time she had gotten the right shot and I could actually fucking eat, everyone else was halfway through their meals.

I ate in silence trying to get my anger under control, and kept watch on Marina and the other guy 

Suddenly they start to whisper each other.

What the fuck, I think to myself.

They then laugh about something and I can't help but feel a bit jealous.

Watching those two together makes me roll my eyes.

He clearly isn't right for her.
