In bed I hugged my pillow hard. Hot tears streaming down my face, I couldn't help but think about how much it hurt to think that he did not tell me that he did in fact have a girlfriend. At the same time it wasn't any of my business that he did but it still ached.

I'm going to call Thalia now. I thought. She will know what to do. Thalia has been my best friend since we were 2, we grew up together and when I was stressed and needed someone to talk to, she was always there for me.

"Hey, whats up wise girl."

"Hey Thal."

"Oh no, I heard it, whats happening. Let me guess somethin' bout' Percy, your husband."

"Gosh Thalia, no not my husband. A crush."

"So what happened."

"Dont want to talk about it over the phone."

"Kay, lets go to Momma's Shake for a drink, we'll talk there."

"Kay, see ya in ten."

"Byeeeeee."

Sigh. I got up, pulled on some jeans, a grey sweater and a scarf. Went to my front door put some shoes on, grabbed my keys for my scooter. Locked the door behind me.

When I got there I saw Thalia. Since the last time I saw her, she got some purple highlights in her hair and as usual her black leather jacket, black jeans and skull t-shirt.

"Hey Thals!"

"Hey wise girl. Come on let's go in now."

We walked in and the familiar scent of donuts filled our lungs, not only did Momma's Shake have delicious fruit shakes but they also had the most delicious donuts. We sat down at a window seat ordered our drinks and started talking again.

"Ok so what happened."

Thalia's face full with concern. If you messed with on of her friends you mess with her, that was one of her mottos. So I explained everything to her, from when we were at school to when we we got to his house and when I left. Her frown grew a bit more deep as I retold the story. When I was done she didn't say anything for a minute, then started to speak.

"Well you see boys are complicated, maybe he knows you like him and so maybe he didn't want to hurt your feelings so he did not tell you."

"But if he knew he would've told me."

"Wise girl, sometimes you just gotta let things be."

"I know. But I like him, in fact I love him and every day, every hour and every minute i'm not with him I miss him so much my heart aches. Oh what do I do Thals?"

Desperate to tell him that I like him and that I want him to be mine and only mine, I ask her what the tartarus am I supposed to do.

"Well first I think that you need to spend some time away from him, in order to get your thought straight. And who knows he might break up with her soon. So calm down a bit."

"Okay, now let's change the subject, I don't want to talk about him anymore."

"Kay."

"So you busy this weekend?"

"No, apart from working at the shop Saturday morning i'm free."

"You want to come over to my house Saturday night and you can go home on Sunday."

"Yeah sure, I really need a girls night out, cause the guys at the shop are so annoying all they ever do is sit there on their phone and talk about the latest hottie online. Yuck."

"Kay then Saturday it is?"

"Definitely."

Then it hit me, I do have something going on today, I have to go teach my self defence class.

"Oh lord, Thals. I have to go I just remembered that I have my classes today."

"Then go, well see each other Saturday after all today is only Thursday, we got time. Hurry go!"

"Thanks so much, I'll pay the bill. Bye Thals."

"Ok thanks,

I grabbed my coat went to the counter, paid for our drinks and headed home.
