Griffin's POV
(The same day as Chapter 1)
I drive back to the sway house and I'm upset. How could Dixie do this to me? How could Tayler betray me like that? I walk into the house and Bryce is there waiting for me. He offers me a drink and says that I look miserable. I explain the Dixie broke up with me. He looks at me in sympathy and apologizes. I try not to think about it. I accept the drink knowing it's the only way to make me feel better right now. I feel guilty for treating her like that even though I was upset. I text her an apology but she doesn't respond. A notification pops up the screen. "This number has blocked you" it says. Great. Bryce and the other sway members offer to take me to a party to lighten my mood. I go, it could get my mind off things right now. We get to someone's house, and now I'm sitting by the refreshments, on my third drink. I know I'm buzzed. By my fifth, Bryce stops me. "Woah, slow down buddy! We just got here!" he says. Bryce looks like he's about to tell me something, but I'm distracted. All of a sudden I see Josh walk by the door and in comes no other than Tayler Holder and Nate Wyatt.
Dixie's pov
After my dad gave me a hug I went to my room. My dad called Addison over to cheer me up. She comes into my room. "Hey Dix, I heard what happened are you okay?"she asked. "What are you doing here?" I responded. "Your dad called me over." she said. "Oh", I said. "Yeah I'm ok I guess" 'Well get ready girlie cuz we're going to a party!" she said. "Now?," I asked. "Yes, now hurry up let's go!"she yelled. I agreed, although its not like I had a choice. We get to the party and I spot Griffin sitting down by the drinks. "Hey let's get out of here" I say. "Griffin's here." Addison spots him, and while we're about to leave, in walks Josh Richards with no other than Tayler Holder and Nate Wyatt behind him. Uh oh... I can't leave now, because shits about to go down.
Griffin's POV
I look over at Bryce "What are they doing here?", I ask. "Well I was just gonna tell you that I invited them but then they got here." Bryce responds. I look back at Tayler and Nate. "Lets get this party started!" Nate yells, holding up a bottle of tequila. Tayler is trailing behind with two cases of Gatorade. He sets them down and I walk up to him. Everyone is saying hi to them. "So, you just think that you could fucking take my girl, huh Tayler?" I ask him, words starting to slur. He laughs and I grab him by his shirt. "I'm serious man.", I tell him. "I don't know what the fuck you're talking about Griffin! You're drunk!"he says. "Oh, so you haven't been talking to Dixie then?" I say, in a sarcastic tone. "No, man, I don't know what you're talking about! Now get off me!" he yells, pushing me off of him. "You little bitch!"I say, punching square in the jaw. "Griffin stop!" I hear someone yell. It sounds like Dixie. I look back and sure enough, she's there watching. Well there goes my chance to ever get back with her. Before I can stop it, Tayler punches back, and the next thing I know we're in a fist fight. "Tayler, stop!" I hear Dixie yell. The rest of the sway boys (and Nate) are trying to tear us apart, and when they finally do, I have bloody nose, and Tayler has a bloody lip. We just stare at each other, nostrils flaring, until Dixie comes up between us. "What the fuck were you thinking Griffin!" she says as she slaps me across the face, hard. Tayler looks shocked. I guess he doesn't know we broke up. I was wrong about him. He wasn't talking to Dixie while we were dating. Dixie walks over to him to make sure that he's ok. "What about me?" I ask her. "I get nothing?" "You started it Griffin." she replies. "Plus he didn't know what the fuck was going on." "What is going on?", Tayler asks her. "She broke up with me because she has feelings for you!", I tell him. "Fuck you Griffin!", she yells at me. "Is that true?", Tayler asks her. " Can we talk about this later?" she responds. "Oh yeah, sure, I guess." he says back. "Great, then lets get out of here.", she says and she and Addison, Tayler and Nate all leave. I'm left with just Bryce and Josh. They take my drunk ass home.
Dixie's POV
It all happens so fast I didn't even have time to process it. All I remember is seeing Tayler and Nate walk in. Nate's carrying a bottle of tequila, and Tayler is carrying gatorade. Of course, I thought to myself. He doesn't drink. It's actually kinda cute and respectable. Next thing I remember Griffin is standing front of Tayler, and then they're fighting. And I'm yelling at them to get off of each other. I check up on Tayler. We leave. And now I'm here, sitting in a car with Nate, Addison and Tayler. Nate and Addison are up front leaving just me and Tayler in the back. It's awkward. There's just silence the whole ride. Everyone heard what Griffin said about my feelings for Tayler. God, why did he have to be such an asshole? And more importantly, why did I date that asshole? We drive up to the hype house, and by the time we get there, Tayler's eye is already turning purple. We get out and try to go inside quietly. I don't know what the point of sneaking in is, because the rest of the hype house members are normally up partying and drinking this late. Surprisingly, when we get inside the house it is quiet. I guess they are all in their rooms. We hear some yelling coming from where the movie room is. They must all be watching a movie. We get Tayler inside and Addison and Nate make sure he's ok, then they ask me if I want them to stay and help me with him. I tell them that I'm fine and I can clean him up by myself. I also really need to talk to him. They go to join the rest of the hype house members. I start cleaning up his face with some rubbing alcohol and a wet rag. He flinches when I put it on him. "Sorry", I say. "It's fine" he responds. "No, it's not" I say. "He shouldn't have hit you!" "Dix, Im alright." he says. I was about to say something else but he beat me to it. "Is it true what Griffin said? Did you break up with him because you have feelings for me?" he asks. I didn't know how to respond. "umm....., Yeah", I said. "I was gonna tell you, I just didn't know how and-" all of a sudden he cuts me off with a kiss. Our lips move in sync and finally we break apart. My body ached for more. It feels like I have waited forever for that. "What was that for?", I ask. "Well now you don't have to tell me, because I have feelings for you too." he says. "I know.", I reply. "You know? What?! How? Did Nate tell you?" he asks. "No, he didn't have to, I heard you guys talking abut it two weeks ago. "Oh, guess I have to be more careful then." he says with a laugh. "Yeah" I reply with a slight giggle. I hand him a bag of ice for his eye and we go upstairs to watch the second season of "YOU" together. It feels like it was before I started dating Griffin. Except for the fact that Tayler and I just kissed. Which I'm pretty sure we'll talk about later and about what it means. We are snuggling on the couch when I start to fall sleep on him Tayler notices and says, "Hey maybe we should get to bed. Wanna stay?" Me being my half asleep self says "Tayler Holder I am not having sex with you right now." He laughs. "I didn't say that Dix." he says. "Oh, ok then, I'll stay" I reply. We get into Tayler's bed and I fall asleep wrapped up in the arms. Boy it was a crazy day.
Sorry if it got a little confusing! Thanks for reading!
