Should Have Known Better

" Aren't you at the wrong house? Sam lives 5 blocks up from me, but I don't really need to tell you that because your dating her." I say to Hunter.

" Tori, can I please speak to you alone.", Hunter said

I walk to the from of the house open the door and sit on the bench on my patio.

" I'm really sorry I didn't know that you liked me. I only found out that when Sam told me when we had a picnic. I know you like me Tori... if Sam told me before we started to date, I would have said no. Please don't me mad at Sam, it's all my fault.", Hunter said.

" Wait, did you seriously say that! Where's Sam, she's got to be here. Now Hunter, don't lie to me or I'll break your arm. Did Sam make you say this, because she doesn't want me to be mad at her!", I say to Hunter while grabbing his arm.

He doesn't say anything and I twist his arm and pull it.

" I asked you! Did Sam make you say it or not?" I whisper in his ear. I pull his arm just a slight bit, to feel the burn.

His hand starts to get clammy and he whispers something.

" Yes, she told me to, she told me to"

I open the garage and I take out my bike. I go onto  the main road, to get to Sam's house, I wipe my tears from my cheeks with the sleeves of my shirt. I go in Sam's driveway, and drop my bike there. I go to there backward and climb the tree to her window. I don't see her so I open her window and I climb in. I text her and her phone beeps. She's in her uniform still, on her home phone.

" What did you tell her Hunter?" Sam says into the phone.

" Hey Sam, I haven't been in your room in such a long time. Why did you do that? I almost broke your boyfriends arm. You when you did I though, wow what a friend you are. You date the only guy that I've liked. You rube it in my face, when my dad dies, then you do this. Now I don't think that those are the qualities of a real friend. I think those are qualities for BITCHES!", I say to her looking directly in her eyes.

" Tori, you know I really didn't mean to hurt you. I was just trying to be a better frie-

or just trying to be a better bitch ass friend, who just has to back stab her with a knife 50 every time." I finish the sentence for her.

I see she has tears in her eyes and she's holding them back. She's bitting her lip and her eyes are closed. Before she can do anything I go down the stairs and out by the front.

" Nice to see you again. ", I say to Sam's parents.

I open the door, picked my bike from the drive way and went to the park. I went to swings, toke off my shoes and just lightly swung myself. I saw car lights and a honk. It was my mom. So I toke my bike and I put my shoes back on and open the drunk of the car and put the bike in. I climb in the car next to my mom, look at her and then bawl my eyes out on her shoulder. She strokes my hair gently, trying to calm me. When I'm done crying, she drives us back to our house. She tells me to go wash my face and lie down in my bed, close me eyes and listen to my Ipod. I listen to her, I do everything that she told me to do and I'm closing my eyes, the music is playing.

" Good morning sweet pea, I hope you had a wonderful sleep. When I went upstairs to see you, you were already fast asleep. I'm at work, I called in the morning, it was urgent so I went. Since it's Saturday and it's movie day, it will have to be tomorrow. Please clean your room, do the dishes, and look out for your sister. Your brother is at his friends house so you can invite Sam over if you want. Love mom xox" I read while eating my cereal and watching Fear Factor.

I decide to leave Anne-Marie here for 5 minutes. I go to the depanneur near my house and my tubs and tubs of ice cream. I get candy and Stewards. I leave, while drinking Stewards and chewing some gum. When I get back to the house I go check on Anne-Marie sleeping peacefully with her build-a-bear that Noah got her from England. I take the baby monitor from the room and place near sofa before I sit down goballing the candy and ice cream. This is what I need.
