Cyrus pov
I waited at the carnival for my date and Amber and especially for Jonah. I got this, I just have to be myself like Buffy said. I see the girl from the party walking towards me along with Amber and Jonah.
"Cyrus"
"Iris "
" Good news we already have a ship name Cyrus with an I," I say
" your clever" she said laughing. Her laugher stops by a witch from behind us.
" What are you two giggling about" witch said, I mean Amber said.
" private joke" Iris said
" I love it, you guys are such a cute couple"
" so games and rides, which one should we do first" Jonah said speaking for the first time since the date. Oh I missed his voice even though I heard it two days ago in class.
" I'm not fuzzy. Well I'm a little fuzzy" I say trying not to get nervous.
"Me too" Iris said. Wow this girl and I have a lot in common, it's too bad she that she had to be alive during the time of Jonah beck and be a girl.
"So cute...my dad has those shoes" Amber said as she walked off. Jeez what a bitch.
We decided to play games first and I was so intrigued by how Jonah kept winning all the games, it's too bad he had to give his prizes to that witch of a girl. I watched as he won his 7th game and he handed Amber a pink teddy bear and in return Amber hugged him.
I decide I should try and win my date a prize so I payed to play the toss the rings game. I tossed the rings and missed the bottles by a mile. I failed the first try and second and third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh and I lost count after twenty. By then I had wasted all but one of my tickets which Iris took to play the game. I laughed, she couldn't possibly be better than me.
Well I was wrong, holy moley she won every game, I take back what I said. She even gave me her dinosaur she won. I saw Amber and Jonah holding hands, oh how I wished someday we could do that. I was suddenly shocked by the touch of Iris's hand holding my hand. I was so uncomfortable right now, I could puke.
Next thing we did was ride the carousel, I stepped on the carousel to see Amber kissing Jonah. I felt sick. I need to stop this, I need to get over my feelings for Jonah and date Iris. We clearly have a lot in common. I look at Iris for a moment before leaning in to kiss her. We kiss for a second before the ride started. I felt so sick I was about to throw up.
" are you ok?" Iris asked seeing how pale I was turning.
"No , STOP THE RIDE!" I yelled. Once the ride stop I ran out and threw up in my shoe. I turned around to see Amber laughing and recording it with her phone.
" haha what a freak, come on bae let's get out of here" Amber said and she grabbed Jonah and left.
" Are you ok, do you want me to get you some napkins" Iris asked.
" Please go away," I said running to the bathroom. I ran into a stall, I lean back and slide down letting my tears fall down my face. I'm such a freak like Amber said, Jonah will never like me now. I thought that if I kiss Iris, it will stop my feelings for Jonah but it didn't work. And after barfing, all I thought of was how Jonah will never speak to me again, not weather or not Iris would. All I care about is Jonah and now he's disgusted by me.
After I calmed I called my mom and of course she heard how sad I was and diagnosed me with depression. Let's see last week when I got mad, she diagnosed me as bipolar. Or the time I forgot about doing the dishes and she diagnosed me with a memory disorder, and I could keep on going with the millions of false diagnoses my mom has given me. It's so annoying living with shrinks, if one wasn't bad enough I have to live with four of them.
The car ride home was silent like always. I ran pass my step dad and brother and into my bedroom.
How could I be so stupid. I should have never agreed to go on this date. It wasn't the carnival ride that made me throw it was the holding hands and kissing Iris and watching the guy I like kissing the girl I hate most.
General pov
After throwing up Cyrus ran away from his date and hid in the bathroom until his mom came and picked him up. It's been 2 hours since the incident. He was to busy crying to noticed that Buffy had been texting him.
Buffy knew something was wrong because Cyrus always replies back. She heard a rumour from Andi who heard it from Jonah that Cyrus barfed on there double date. The word was spreading fast.
Andi was unable to join Buffy to visit Cyrus because she was stuck at family dinner. Buffy couldn't wait for Andi so she went to Cyrus's house by herself.
After entering Cyrus's window, she walked into Cyrus's room. She felt so bad seeing Cyrus crying.
" Cyrus?" She said giving him a hug. He doesn't say anything after pulling away from the hug, he just laid their crying unable to stop.
" Cyrus please talk to me. What happened" Buffy asked concerned of her friend.
" I'm so stupid, I-I thought th-that if I date I-Iris that it would cure me. B-but it didn't work" Cyrus said crying and stuttering on his worlds.
" what are you talking about. Cure you, your sounding crazy . What do you mean by that?" Buffy asked confused . Cyrus wiped his tears and paused to catch his breathe before speaking.
" I thought that if I date Iris it would cure my feelings for Jonah but it didn't work. And now I humiliated myself. I'm sure Amber already told everyone about me throwing up. They all think it was from the carousel ride but it was actually from Iris kissing me. I thought that if I kiss her it will fixed everything but it didn't and to top all that off I had to watch Jonah and Amber hold hands and kiss," Cyrus said. He looked up at Buffy to see her jaw dropped.
" I knew it. I knew it, I knew it. All those times your got nervous when Jonah came or when we said his name. Those nicknames you give him or how you made me help you practice for your hang out/ double date with him," Buffy said.
" oh no was it that obvious, does Andi know. I'm such a horrible friend. She likes Jonah too and I can't be in the way of that" Cyrus said.
" Cyrus calm down, she doesn't know well at least I don't think she knows. Your not a bad person for liking Jonah"
" yes I am if Andi finds out she will be so mad. Then I'll lose my friend and then I already lost Jonah today. He will never speak to me again after what happened today. And now the whole school already knows and my-"'
" Cyrus calm down your over thinking this. Andi is still your friend and so is Jonah"
" But that's the problem, I don't want to be just friends with him. Now he's disgusted by me after today. I ruined everything," Cyrus said
"It's like I'm talking to a wall, have you not been listening to my advise. Everything is going to be ok. Tomorrow when you go to school your still going to be friends with Andi and Jonah will not be disgusted by you."
" I'm not going to school tomorrow," Cyrus said
" oh yes you are, I will be here at your doorstep at 7:30. Me and Andi will be by your side the whole time," Buffy said as Cyrus obeyed. Tomorrow's going to be a hell of a day for the group of friends.
