Summer Problems or Hot Problems?!

Ch.10 -Mr.Henderson & Mr.Castillo-

July 17th, 2013

I've tried calling and calling alejandro and Demetrius o figure out where they were but neither of them have picked up their phones. It keeps going straight to voice mail. I haven't seen either of them since the Jerry Springer incident. This isn't good.

12:04

I called Garrison to see if Demetrius was there so I wouldn't be so worried. He said he wasn't but he needed to talk to me about something important. What has my life come to? And why does Garrison need to talk to me?

1:00

Garrison talked to me about Demetrius and Alejandro more in depth, I thank him for that but hot damn! I feel like such a slut because I'm in a cross between the two. But, anyway, he told me the real OFFICIAL story of Alejandro and Demetrius from a not so biased and *Ariel* perspective.

"I assume Ariel has told you her version of the story but I don't think it was very accurate or it may have been very theatrical on her part. So I'll tell you the whole truth and nothing but the truth so help me god. Any questions before I start?" Garrison smiled, tilting his head slightly to the side.

It was a surprise for someone to actually include me and see what I wanted. "Why are you telling me this?"

"Well, I'm telling you everything because I'm tired of Demetrius' ass moping and brooding around my house. You can trust me because I was there for the most part. If you have any questions during the story hold them until the end please...So! Let's see," he tapped his chin as if he was remebering the story just now, "well, Demetrius isn't the same now like he was here. Demetrius was a complete player badass prick that you would stereotypically see in one of those chick flicks. He had a boyfriend every week, and if he felt like being a real douchebag that week, a girlfriend. Everyone was basically in love with him --hell, at one point I even had a crush on him myself. His parents had no idea what was happpening because they just assumed he had a friend over and not just using me as a look out so they make out. Not once did I complain since usually after he broke up with them they would come crawling to me but we won't go into that. Demetrius was basically hot shit from when we were just in diapers to secondary school. That is until Alejandro came to town when we were about 12. Now, Alejandro was the hottest and freshest thing to come to Barry since Maria Nazaré moved in from Portugal. His sexy voice and fluent Spanish, Welsh, and English made them all hop from our hometown hero to the new item. They basially threw themselves at him; only a few groupees stayed with Demetrius including me. Of course, Demetrius was upset because this bastard came to his hometown and stole all of his hoes/groupies so he was limited to a new boyfriend every 2 weeks. So, quite naturally, there was a full on turf war. Everyone basically had to choose side: Team New Boy or Team Badass. This turf war was more important than actual school work and finals. This went on for about a couple weeks until 60% went with Team NB and 40% went with Team Badass. The only reason Demetrius didn't win was because Alejandro had leverage. And that leverage was sexy Spanish and he was something different. He had a way with words that Demetrius just didn't have so much. Each week Alejandro had more cock than a farmer. I'm pretty sure in his first couple of months Alejandro got to half the school's population. Twice. Pretty soon all of Deme's groupies disappeared and went to Alejandro. Deme was completely alone --except I was there but he was being a twat about being alone-- with no one to comfort him. I think it was a couple of weeks later that Alejandro approached Demetrius with a proposal that I was completely sure was bullshit but listened anyway. He proposed that he and Demetrius should go on a date with because obviously he seemed alone and he didn't want him to feel bad for taking away all of his friends like he did. Well, as you came imagine Deme was angry as hell so he stormed away. The next day, Alejandro came up to us again with another proposal; that he and Demetrius should go out on a date so they could be the most powerful couple in school and not have to compete anymore since he was obviously losing. I wanted to slap him in the face for even suggesting that but of course Deme wasn't worried about his feelings rather his reputation/popularity. So for their first date they went to the movies and then out for ice cream (I was supervising from a distance) and they actually looked like they had  good time. After they had ice cream I had to leave because I had somewhere else to be. Demetrius told me all about the next day  in maths like he was some sort of girl. For the next couple of weeks all we talked about was Alejandro, Alejandro, Alejandro! I was honestly tired of listening to him but decided to leave it alone because for the first time in a while he seemed truly happy. Then all of a sudden they are officially pronnonced as this "suer couple that rules the school", everyone basically bowed down except for me. I was so tired of Demetrius and Alejandro's shit because everytime I wanted to hang out with Demetrius Alejandro would be there to distract him from what we were doing. Pretty soon I just decided to stop coming around his house and stop asking him to come around my house. I had to rely on former converters/former followers of Demetrius to be my friends because to be honest Demerius was my best friend even though he was being an arse. I think it was around 2 month or so before he supposed to move that he decided to crawl back to me and tell me that he was moving to thee States. I was upset, quite naturally, but not so sympathetic and crying on the ground because he chose Alejandro over me but we're not going to get into that. He said he would have to tell Alejandro and he really didn't want to. So I comforted him the best I could and I helped him get through it. I was there when he told Alejandro and how he had some sort of hissy fit about it, storming off dramatically. I guess he cooled off because Demetrius went back to his usual clinginess since they would "no longer be together" he basically had to be with Alejandro 24/7 so the only time I really saw him was in class which realy sucked. I noticed though that whenever I would see the happy couple that Alejandro didn't look oh-so-happy at all. More bored or something like he had somewhere else to be rather than with his boyfriend/best friend. I found this very suspicious so I decided to ask from his groupies/friends what was going on. They quickly said nothing but I knew better than to trust some loyal groupies who deny way too quickly. I asked around but everyone seemed to be apart of the Demeandro (their stupid couple name) alliance so no one would spill. I eventually gave up though. I took more notice that Demetrius suddenly had time for me again which hadn't happened in months which meant Alejandro was elsewhere. I asked Demetrius what happened and he always said the same lame excuse that Alejandro gave him. It was 2 weeks before Deme moved that I confronted Alejandro on his bullshit that I realized he was not dong some lame excuse that he feed my friend, oh no!, he was cheating on him. With a handful of groupies that loved to kiss and tell. So I went to Alejandro's house to confront him about his wrong doings (he wasn't doing what Demetrius told me) and he tried to seduce me instead of owning up to these alligations. I was mortified that he would actually think so low of me. He apologized (complete bullshit) and tried to explain himself. He made it seem lik everyone was lying and that it wsn't his fault fo being away from Demetrius, insert bullshit here, trying to make the whole situation. Because my former self was a dipshit and didn't know he was a good maniplutive bastard that I actually started to believe him. Eventually one thing led to another and let's just say...I lost my virginity at 13--"

I nearly choked on the water I was drinking. "You slept with Alejandro? Why would you do that if you knew that Alejandro was dating Demetrius, your best friend?"

Garrison sighed, rubbind his eyes. "Tyler, people a shit load of stupid stuff in theirr past that they aren't proud of. People make mistakes. That's how you leanr and improve yourself.  Now back to the story. I was immediately ashamed and felt guilty about the whole thing but couldn't face Demetrius like a man so I just told Ariel, since she was searching for answers as well as me, that Alejandro was going around and sleeping with his groupies. I didn't know what she was going to do with the information so I neglected to mention what I had done. The day before Demetrius was supposed to move I got a hone call from him. I didn't know what to do because I hadn't expected anything from him at all until he was on the airplane and away from here. He was crying about Alejandro, sex, and something else. I immediately hung up and went to his house to help him get over the bastard. I spent the night there and we talked all night. Demetrius said that he was going to change entirely and not make the say mistake ever again and that he wouldn't have a boyfriend at all in the States. What happens in Wales, stays in Wales. The day of the move Demetrius, Ariel, and I went over to Alejandro's house to officially break up with him. Alejandro seemed to get over it quickly because he had a boy over. Right before Demetrius left I told him that I slept with Alejandro the week before and was so sorry because I had no idea he was such a manipulative son of a bitch. Suprisingly, he didn't yell at me or curse me out like I thought he would. He just kind of looked at me with a small, bitter smile and said, "I know and I forgive you." Then he had to go. When Demetrius and Ariel left I felt like I needed to go with them. I needed a new beginning from all of this crap here but I didn't get that instead I tried my best to clean up here. I decided to tell everyone about Alejandro and warn them before going out with them and make new real friends.  I just wanted to clean it all up. The moral of the story, Tyler, is that you don't want to get mixed up with Alejandro and his shit. I'm still great friends with Demetrius because of his change and understanding. Alejandro will mess you up because he is no good and bad news. I thought Deme would be messed up forever until he started to talk about you to me. He was just so glad he could have a normal friendship and be happy in the States. To be honest I think he really likes you. That's why he's so angry and avoiding you because he cares. I haven't seen him care so much about anything. So, just give hims sometime to pull through. He'll eventually get there."

I had so many questions for Garrison but I couldn't ask any of them because I fully understood what he was saying. Just give Demetrius some time and then let everything fallt through. Wow...this really does suck.
