"woah who are they?"

"uh tayler? i thought i said just you - "

"i know but they just wanted to come, they won't bother us i promise"

"okay" we look over at his coach as he sighs

we go over and sit down at the bleachers as we watch them

"okay but like one of them has to be gay"

"actually tho"

"who do you think it is?"

"hmm, maybe the one with the red streak"

"nah man it's the blond one"

"bro are you blind that's patrick"

i laugh a bit as joey squints his eyes

"oh damn he's got a big head"

later

"so wanna hang out?"

i look to patrick as we walk back to our  houses with the guys

"can't"

"why not?"

"because i'm busy"

"okay well tomorrow?"

"no"

"then what day are you free?"

"any day your not" i look to him as he walks into his house leaving us outside

"what the fuck is up with him?"

"i don't know" anthony shrugs as we all walk back

i get to my house and say bye to them as i walk in and go up to my room

jeez.

pat was being a real jerk today.

something was definitely off about him, obviously parker.

i mean.

who the heck does he think he is?

first he ruins our friendship then begs me to forgive him, i do. then he just screws it up again, and i forgive him?! jeez parker once is enough i thought you knew-

"parker sweetie patrick's at the door should i let him in?"

"oh yeah sure" i nod and smile lightly as she leaves

what am i doing??!

no. this is good. tell him you don't like the way he's treating you.

yeah

"hey parks, sorry about earlier"

"it's alright"

"still wanna hang out? we could do anything you want"

"sure" i smile

"but i gotta talk to you"

"oh okay is it bad?" he sits down next to me as i can clearly see him swobbing his tongue across his braced teeth

"no - well.. no"

"okay then can we make this quick?"

"why are you being such a jerk"

"what do you mean?"

"like just right now. when i said i have to talk to you and your rushing me or when we were walking back home and you were ignoring me"

"i wasn't ignoring you"

"okay well you were talking to me, i was asking you to hang and you said you were busy"

"yeah i had things to do"

"so why are you here now?"

"because i felt bad"

"so now you care?"

"yes. are we done now?"

"whatever sure"

"okay"

we got up going downstairs as i followed him wherever we were going

"so where are we going?"

i'd look to him as he stays looking ahead of him

"uh to get something to eat" he looks over at me and back at the light as he pushes the button

"okay" i nod as i look around at the places near us

"come on" he grabs my hand as we walk across the crosswalk

something is definitely changing in him.

maybe it's puberty. or that baseball team.
