Player: Chapter 11

**Beth's POV**
I'm really happy and really sad for letting Matt go. Maybe he's telling me something and I'm giving him a hard time. Or maybe he's a douche bag and is really the full part time on player!

I shook my head and fell on my bed. I looked up at the ceiling fan and watched as it spun around. I turned my head and saw a picture of me and Ray. I was only 6 and he was like 12 years old eating ice cream on a bench.

"Beth." Ray walked inside and looked around for me. I raised my head up and waved my hand.

"Oh. There you are. So I'm gonna go to In-N-Out. Wanna join?"

"Who's all coming?"

"What do you mean who's all coming?"

"Every time we went out to eat, we always have that one person or more coming with us."

Ray frowned.

"Well not this time baby cakes! We're going alone. Just the two of us!" He smiled. I smiled a little. It's been years since we've ever been out together.

"So. Are you coming?" He asked. I got up.

"What's up?"

"Huh?"

"Your acting weird. What's up? Spill the beans Ray." I said.

"N-nothing. Nothing's up. Except the sun is up and shining on a beautiful day!" He smiled from ear to ear. I looked at him like he's insane.

"What?"

"Get out."

"Huh?"

"Get out! Get out of here! Your not my brother what is wrong with you!"

"Beth! I'm Ray! It's me Ray."

"Your acting weird!" I shouted.

"Beth! Beth. I'm Ray. There's no other Ray here in this room except for me. Okay?" He said comely. I looked in his eyes. He was soft. Reliable. Trustworthy. And worse. Responsible.

"What's going on Ray? Tell me?" I asked.

"Beth. Nothing's going on. I just wanna go back to In-N-Out to eat and have fun with my sister. I can't do that?" He asked with hurt in his eyes. I looked down thinking I'm going insane now.

"I'm sorry Ray. It's just you've never ever in your life have you said those words."

"Yeah I know. You always see me as the tough douche bag guy huh?" He laughed.

"Let's go you pork head!" I laughed shoving him out the room.

"I'm not a pork head." He laughed.

When we got to In-N-Out, we sat down and ordered what we wanted.

"Can I have a double cheese burger with fries and a strawberry milkshake?" I asked.

"Yes you can. And you?" The lady asked Ray.

"Uh. Let me get a triple cheese burger, extra fries and two large blueberry milkshakes." He smiled. I looked at him with wide eyes.

"Okay. We'll bring you your food and we hope you enjoy!" The lady smiled. Ray handed her the order menus and waved goodbye. I still had my eyes wide opened and my mouth hanging out. Ray looked at me and jumped back a little.

"Geez. You and that face." He laughed. I didn't move.

"What?"

"Are you pregnant?" I asked. His face grew pink.

"What? No."

"Oh really? You've never eat that much food before."

"So. I'm just really hungry and craving In-N-Out. Big deal." I stared at him. I scattered my eyes trying to think of anything what he's hiding from me. Until my phone vibrated.
