A/N- Again, I'm sorry this is short, I really am going to make the next chapter longer.
I was lying in my bed staring at the ceiling think about everything that happened last night. After I told Teddy about how long I've been cutting, we barely talked. We sat there for about another half hour in silence. Then I told him I had to go home. He walked me home and when we got to my house he asked if we would still hang out today, I told him we would and that was it.
Brooke came into my room. I know she knows something is wrong, she can always tell.
"Something happen with you and Teddy last night?" she asked, sitting on my bed.
"I'm not really sure yet. I think we're ok." I said.
"Good. You really need friends here." She said, laughing.
"Thanks," I replied, sitting up.
"No problem. So I heard you met Ace. He's hot right?" She asked.
"Wait who's Ace." I asked, confused.
"Tara's brother, he brought you home last night." She said, getting bored with the conversation already.
"Oh yeah. He was the only one who was, um, able to bring me home." I said laughing "Speaking of which, where's Nate."
"Still asleep." She said laughing, haha even at 11 years old; she knew exactly why Nate was still asleep.
"Ugh what time is it?" I asked
"11:45, why?" she replied.
"Shit. I gotta go." I said, jumping out of bed and running to the bathroom to take a shower and get ready. I wanted to get to the tree house early so I could talk to Gordie.
At 12:00 I was walking down the road to the tree house. That was definitely the fastest I've ever gotten ready. I took a 5 minute shower, threw my hair up into a messy bun, threw on gray sweat pants, that I'm pretty sure are Nate's, and Brooke's red tank top. Haha I love the fact that I'm not even wearing my own clothes. Anyway when I got to the tree house Gordie was the only one there, like I hoped.
"Hey Gordie" I said, as I climbed in.
"Hi." He said.
"Listen, Teddy told me what you said about me." I started, but he cut me off.
"He did?" he said, it was clearly obvious that Teddy wasn't supposed to tell me anything.
"Yeah, and I just wanted to talk to you about it. You have to believe me, the last thing I want to do is tear you guys apart. I know you guys are best friends; I don't want to change that. It was hard moving here, having no friends, and you guys just kind of accepted me. The last thing I would want to do after that is cause drama between you guys." I said, I meant every word of it too.
Gordie smiled and said, "I'm sorry I was kind of an ass to you. I really don't know why I thought you were going to come in the way of us, I'm really sorry though."
"So, we're good?" I asked
"Yeah." He said, and then there was a knock at the door. It was Chris, Teddy, and Vern.
"Hey guys, so you guys are friends finally? Vern asked.
"Yeah… how long were you guys out there?" I asked laughing.
"Pretty much the whole time, we didn't want to interrupt you guys though." Teddy said.
"Oh…ok." I said.
"So you guys want to play cards?" Chris asked.
"No," I said laughing, "I definitely suck at cards. I'll watch though."
Chris ended up playing Vern, and beat him 14 times. Wow, I was getting sick of cards, and I wasn't even playing.
"You guys this is boring." Gordie said, as if he were reading my mind.
"Lets go the diner." Teddy suggested.
"Ok!" Vern said excitedly. Haha I love this kid.
On the way there me and Teddy kind of stayed towards the back. I knew what he was thinking about and was waiting for him to say something.
"Ok so about last night," he said, and there it is I thought, "we're still ok right?"
"Yeah, definitely." I replied.
"Good, because you know we still need to talk right?" he asked. Yeah I knew we still had to talk, there was no way we could just leave it as what was said last night, but I didn't want to.
"Yeah. You want to come over tonight. And we can talk. I don't think anyone's going to be home." I said. I really didn't think anyone would be home, if anyone it would be Brooke, and she wouldn't care.
"Yeah ok." He said. Just as we caught up to everyone else at the diner.
We all sat at a table, and some waiter came to take our orders, and guess what. They all ordered the same thing, again.
"Wow you guys are so boring." I said after the waiter left.
"What?" Chris asked, and they all just kind of stared at me like they had no idea what I was talking about.
Anyway, we stayed at the diner for 2 hours, and then got kicked out. Mainly because Teddy and Vern were fighting over God knows what. So we went back to the tree house but it was really boring so I decided to leave. Haha it was only 6:30. It was ok though, because after Teddy leaves later, I want to go hang out with Nate and everybody.
"Alright you guys, I'm going to go." I said. Everyone said good bye and everything except Teddy who said he'd be at my house in an hour.
When I got home Brooke was there, and that was it.
"Where is everyone?" I asked.
"Mom had to work late, and Nate is out with Ace and all his friends." She said, walking towards the door.
"Where are you going?" I asked.
"To Tara's" she said, and left.
Ok so I've pretty much got the house to myself for an hour, until Teddy gets here. I was kind of dreading having to talk to Teddy, but I knew we had to.
