AN: Quite possibly the worst chapter I've written, and the shortest. The reason for this is because I forgot to add it to my outline and it wasn't planned out much, but it was needed. Let me know what you think. I love reviews, even if it's criticism.

Chapter 5

I sat on my couch flipping through the TV channels. After my talk with Chelsea we just headed back to my house. Chelsea got a text from Sean asking if we wanted to meet up with them but since they were heading to play basketball, we decided to pass instead of just watching them play for an hour. Chelsea dropped me off and now I'm sitting here flipping through channels.

I still can't get over how well Chelsea took my news. It's such a relief to have her know and be on my side. I'm so happy that she at least is accepting of what I'm going through. I don't know what I would do if my best friend wouldn't even accept me. I still don't really know what I'm feeling for Ashley but I guess it's safe to say it's a crush.

I casually flip the channel again not finding anything that's capturing my interests. All I find myself thinking about is Ashley. I've never really felt like this before, completely giddy just think about a person. I'm so confused right now, not only have I never felt like this before but I'm also crushing on a girl. A girl I just met and have barely talked to. I don't even know if she likes me or if this is all a game to her. I'm pretty sure she knows what she does to me, otherwise why would she continue to flirt with me.

I heard the front door open as someone came in. Glen came into the living room and jumped over the couch landing with a bounce next to me.

"Glen you idiot, why'd you do that?" I asked and he just shrugged at me. He had sweat dripping from his brow so he must've just finished playing basketball. Eww.

"So how was it?" I asked casually moving away. I love my brother but that doesn't mean I want to be covered in his sweat. That's where I draw the line.

"Great! We chilled at the mall for a bit. Then Aiden, Sean and I played basketball for a while at the park, and Ashley and Kyla watched," he said. I nodded; I wasn't really all that interested.

"I ended up talking to Kyla a bit at the mall, we walked together. She's pretty cool," he said looking away. Ooo I think Glen has a crush. I just smiled. He grabbed the remote from my hands and put on some sport channel. I rolled my eyes, but didn't really care. I wasn't watching anything anyway.

"So Aiden's on the basketball team at school and says I should try out. I haven't played since 7th grade but it might be cool," he started. I nodded along but was only half listening. I started to pick at my nails as he continued to talk.

"…And I think that that Ashley girl is gay," my head snapped up when he said this. I cut him off, "What? Why?" I asked.

"Oh uh well when we were sitting at the food court I looked up and saw her totally flirting with some girl. Then I asked Kyla and she just rolled her eyes like it was normal," he said averting his attention back to the game. I sat there for a minute. So Ashley definitely maybe likes girls. And it's a normal thing for her to flirt with them, so does that make me just someone she flirts with or someone she's interested in? I'm even more confused now. Where do I go from here? It's not as if I'm just gonna go up to her and ask if she likes me. Ugh, why does she make life so difficult?
