"So, Kim…"

"Yeah?"

I looked up to his face and stared him straight in the eye.

"…I was wondering if you wanted to…you know…hang?"

I stared at him in silence as the party was still blaring from behind us.

"Hang as in…Hang out?"

"Yeah, like friends?" He smiled as he rubbed his neck nervously.

I smiled back. A huge grin was etched onto my face. An actual genuine smile.

"So that's a yes?"

I nodded fiercely before I was dragged into hug. My feet were literally lifted off the ground as he twirled me around. I was caught off guard by this action, but I welcomed it.

He's so…warm…

As he placed me down he started to look like he regretted that action.

"Sorry…I was just…"

I only realised that I was blushing fiercely.

"It's okay. I don't mind" I smiled.

"Cool. Because you know…friends like…hug and stuff…right?" He tripped over his words as he rubbed the back of his neck again.

Aw, he's nervous.

"Yeah, totally agree with you there" I agreed as I took his hand in mine.

He looked at me suspiciously as he eyes our hands locked together. He wasn't letting go, so that was a good thing right?

"What? Friends can hold hands right?" I blushed as I looked away.

"Hey, I don't mind" He smiled as he led me towards the front of the house.

"Wanna get out of here Kim?"

"Well…I don't mind leaving. Won't your friends miss you?" I asked.

"They might be too drunk to notice that I'm gone. Besides, I don't drink"

I was surprised by that comment. I swear I saw him drinking something out of that red cup.

"You don't drink?"

"Nope" He shook his head twice as we sat on the front porch. "I'm a soda kind of guy. Either that or water"

"So…you were drinking water?"

"I accidentally broke the tap" He chuckled.

I started laughing out loud. Now it made sense.

"How did you—" I gasped between my laughter.

I didn't even need to finish my question.

"It just came off! I didn't mean to break it. Let's hope everyone's too drunk to remember" He rushed as he explained what happened.

"I bet the parents won't be happy when they come back" I smiled.

"So, wanna head out?" He asked.

"Sure, but I need to let my friend Rena know first that I'm leaving" I nodded as I got up. "Can you help me out?"

"Yeah, Rena Smith, right?" He asked.

I nodded, acknowledging him.

"Yeah, I know what she looks like. Why don't you check upstairs and I'll check this area?"

"Yeah okay, she's in a Nurse Costume" I told him, hoping it would make it easy on his search.

"Got it. Meet you here?"

I gave him a smile as I travelled upstairs towards the bedrooms. It was quiet up here. Maybe if you count the many people doing the unmentionable in the four rooms up here making groaning noises, then I guess that counts as noise…

This is why parents set boundaries and don't trust us anymore. Because of incidents like this.

"Jared…!"

Jared? Jared's here?

"Give it to me Jared!"

No way! That can't be…

I burst through the door to find my best friend on top of the boy I used to crush on. I doubt he even knew her, but that didn't stop her at all. Jared didn't acknowledge me at all. He just rolled his eyes and sat up continuing to kiss her neck. She pushed him away as if she was caught in the act.

"Kimmy?" She gasped.

"Shit, I'm sorry…" I mumbled as tears threatened my eyes. "I…I…"

"Do you mind?" He spat out as he looked into my eyes.

I don't know what happened, but I felt something change. My heart raced at the sight of him. He must've felt it too because he looked like a blind man seeing the sun for the first time. But I just couldn't get the scene out of head.

My Best friend…with my crush…

"Kimmy, wait! Let me explain—" Rena immediately got off him as she started covering herself up.

"I'm sorry! I've got to—"

"Kim, wait!"

I didn't even finish my sentence as I rushed down the stairs towards the front door. I ran towards the driveway and started breathing heavily. It's hard to run in heels. Tears were running down my cheeks as I continued to control my breaths.

Why am I even crying? He's not even my boyfriend. I hardly even know him. So, why do I feel so…weak? Why do my tears still pour down my cheeks? Why do I feel so betrayed?

I grabbed onto a nearby tree as I dropped onto my knees.

"Kim!" I heard Sonny call out. "Hey what happened? I saw you run out and I—"

He studied me closely before reaching out and cupping my cheek.

"Was it Jared?" He growled.

I nodded mutely as I continued to cry.

"C'mon, let's go"

"But, where—"

"Whenever I felt down, I always felt right after a good, hot meal" He smiled. "We can get to know each other at this Diner I know of. They have the best food"

He picked me up bridal style as he carried me towards the main road. But just when we were behind the safety of the trees, I swear I saw Jared coming out of the house looking for someone. His shirt was still open revealing his abs but other than that, fully clothed.

I think this may be a sign that I have to move on. I cannot wait to leave La Push.
