Chapter Twenty- five: Twinlationship

  "So you were just making out with him for show? And you fought Jenna for no reason?"

"Well at first it was for show, but we actually started liking each other towards the end, and I mainly fought Jenna because I don't like her." I explained, and he nodded in understanding.

"But what about Jason?"

    "What do you mean?" Why do they all keep asking about him?

"Jason likes you."

I stared at him as if he had grown a second head.

    "No he doesn't, I'm like a little sister to him." I said slightly panicking as Tyler gave me a look as if he knows something I don't.

"You seriously can't tell? Your seriously oblivious Sam. Why do you think Mom and I have always thought there was more going on between you guys than just friendship?"

   I shook my head. "We are just friends."

"We know that, but haven't you at least noticed the way he has looked at you since like the first grade? Or the fact that he never dates anyone?"

      "He's was dating Emma." I pointed out not willing to believe him.

"Yeah, but only because he's trying to make you jealous, he's in love with you Sam." Tyler said slowly, and I shook my head.

     "No, he's not just shut up, I don't want to talk about this."

"Fine, but only if you answer this one question." I nodded slowly, and he continued. "Do you like him?"

I'm not going to lie, and say that here lately I haven't been thinking about him in ways that friends don't think about each other. I'm also not going to lie, and say that I don't miss him in more was than I should.

I miss the way his lips had felt against mine.

God, I'm an idiot.

     "I don't know." I replied honestly, and Ty nodded in understanding.

"One more question, but it doesn't have anything to do with Jason."

"Okay . . ."

    "Uhm, do you think Claire likes me?" I smiled, and did a victory dance in my head.

   "Yeah, she obviously likes you, and I already know about all of your little escapades. She actually was wondering the same thing, you should call her." I said as I fiddled with one of the cereal peices that had fallen from his bowl.

"I will."

"Good,  I'll see you later." I said as I moved to stand up.

     "I'm glad we talked Sammie, I missed teasing my little sister." He said as he stood up, and moved to hug me.

"Dude, we are five minutes apart, but yeah I guess I missed you too." I said as I hugged him back.

Once we had pulled apart he exhaled, and ran a hand through his hair. "Sam, I guess as long as there is no reason for me to intervene, I'll stay out of your love life."

I smiled. "Thanks, I'll be in my room."

      I left the room with two weights removed from my shoulders, and another added.

Just great.
