After spending two long terrible months with my dad 163 miles away in Seattle, Washington, I was glad to finally go back home again. My aunt moved in when I was eight. My dad had a mental breakdown when my mom died in a horrible car accident. Sometimes I wonder if he had faked the breakdown to get rid of me because it's only been eight years and he's now engaged to someone else who wants me to call her"mom" but I call her young Judy because she's only eleven years older than me; and not much wiser.
I was glad to finally be back again I missed my grandma, aunt school, my hilarious best friend Devin and my ex boyfriend, Kyle who I was still super close with . We had dated since middle school. When we got into tenth grade Kyle spent every second trying make the football team. I admit I got a little jealous of all the time he was spending with the team and those dirty cheerleaders, after all Kyle was arguably the best boy in school right after the biggest jerk in the world Erin. He had beautiful light brown eyes that went great with his dark skin, followed by his gorgeous long hair. Everyone would always try wonder what a guy like him wanted with a clumsy, over achiever like me. But they didn't understand me Kyle have been through everything together. I was there when his parents divorced and when I had broken three of ribs and was stuck in the hospital for two weeks from a skateboarding accident. Every time I insisted he leave he wouldn't; he kept by my side. I was his first love and he was mine. In the end the we broke up. He had gotten to busy and I just couldn't take it anymore. I still love him as if I was he was my "forever"and I was his.
Devin and Kyle threw a huge party for me when I came back. Everyone was there and I was dressed to impress with my new black skirt and people laced tank top. I'm not sure who said Erin could come but he did. Erin and I used to be best friends but with time and distance (besides the fact we live across from each other) grew to hate one another. We have two of our classes together political science in which he loves debating me and American history plus, our lockers aren't very far away for each other. He always looks at me like I'm doing something wrong, which is the most annoying thing about him.
I was talking to some friends when idiot Erin came over and "accidentally" spilled coke on my skirt. Luckily, it was black so it didn't leave a visible stain but I could feel my thighs getting all wet and a sticky. "You idiot" I growled at him.
"Oh, please that skirt isn't doing you any good". He said smirking as if I if I was was his toy and he was playing with me. Embarrassed I stormed off to the bathroom but I saw Devon and Kyle, and they looked like they were really having a good time together. Devon has never really had a first love like Kyle and I so, I can't wait for the day she meets her Kyle.
Later, that night I could feel Erin eyes stuck on me like I was bate on a hook. I was pretty tired, so I told Kyle I was ready but then Erin stepped in. " I'll take her home" As he said with his eyes trying to plead with mine.As much as I hated Erin, Kyle was having a great time with Devon. After all she's been through she really needed this night to have fun. "Okay". ; he gave me as wary look but I told him I was fine. When I got in the car I could feel Erin wanting to say something but I was too tried to talk so immediately feel asleep.
The next day my party was being talked about all over school. I never wanted to be popular but if I was then Devon was too. She had a pretty bad year, her first boyfriend who she really falling for moved away after six months together. I went to her locker but I couldn't find her. I even tired calling and texting her but she wouldn't respond. I went to Kyle house to see if he knew where she was but his mom came to the door and said that he went the arcade. I knew that form dating me that "going to the arcade" meant that I don't want to see you.
I walked home feeling pretty bad,I didn't know what I had done to be so unwanted. Maybe I did something at the party that I shouldn't have. I was doing my homework when I got a text from Erin. " Hey are you okay?" I responded with a simply yes and thank you for the ride home. "Kinda sucks huh?" What is he talking about." Huh?" " oh I guess they didn't tell you". Now he's doing this on purpose. "What are you talking about?" I waited all night for him to respond but he didn't. The next day I saw Kyle and Devon in a pretty heated argument when Devin turned to see me staring at them she looked like she just seen a ghost. She left the conversation with Kyle and walked over to me. Her face said I'm guilty. With her head down she said " h-hi". "Hey why have you and Kyle been avoiding me?" "Come over myself after school I'll explain" she said looking down at her sweaty hands. okkay
