hmm no boys young lady, because Art is right here!” he laughed. I stopped and turned towards him.
“ You let Joe get to you? And I thought you were somewhat descent,” I sighed, and then I closed the door, and made my way down the driveway. I came to a stop at the street, and bit my lip. Well where do I go know? I started to walk towards town to walk around maybe get a ice-cream or something… Evian is busy today with something, im not so sure, but he is my only friend so im basically screwed. I heard some yelling, and I looked towards the park, and saw Brittany’s car parked. I guess her and her minions are here. I walked towards the park to see what the witches from H E double hockey sticks where doing. When I got close enough I saw one girl being held by two other girls, and she had a bloody lip, and was bent over breathing heavily. Their where three girls against one. Know that is not fair.
“ You have never been fare Brittany,” I called out. She was about to punch the girl but then she stopped and turned towards me. When I saw the girl they were holding I instantly recognized her. It was this girl named Kara. Her and Brittany where “ Best friends” The most popular girls in the school. I never liked either of them.
“ Go away you little dike!” She hissed. I took another step closer to her.
“ And you know what they say about dikes right?” I asked. She gave me a questioning look, and I brought my fist up and it collided with her face. She let out a cry staggering back, and was holding onto her know broken blood nose. “ They know how to fucking punch unlike you weak little witches!” I growled. The three girls ran off to their gay Beatle hot pink car… don’t get me wrong I love gay people. I looked up and saw Kara sitting on the ground with her face in her hands, and she was crying… wow. I took another step closer. “ Hey, Kara,” I muttered.
“ Thanks Ty,” She whispered. Oh my god she knows my name. well that’s a first. I can’t be mean to her right know… I’ll feel too bad. I sighed, and knelt down in front of her removing her hands to look at her face.
“ You’ll be fine just a busted lip. Those witches don’t know how to really hit, so I guess you were lucky,” I let out a laugh. She let out a laugh shaking her head. I let go of her hands, and sat down next to her, and just looked at her for some time. Unlike Brittany Kara was actually a pretty girl. She was a Latino. She had long black hair, tan skin, green eyes, and she was pretty tall. About five foot eight.
“ Im sorry for ever being mean to you. It was never right. I was just along with Brittany… I don’t know why I ever did it though. I hated acting like that, but im not going to anymore,” she whispered tears coming down her eyes. Alright Kara is nice? What is a girl like this doing with Brittany. Maybe I was all wrong about Kara.
“ It’s alright,” I smiled. She looked up at me shocked.
“ R- Really?”
I stood up and grabbed her hand and pulled her up, and reached my hand out.
“ hello, im Ty,” I smiled. She shook my hand.
“ Hey Ty, I’m Kara,” She said beaming.
“ I think I just met my first female friend,” I laughed. She let go of my hand and started to laugh.
“ You’re a funny girl Ty,” She laughed shaking her head. I shrugged my shoulders. “ really though, thank you Ty…” She whispered.
“ Of course Kara,” I said.
“ On Monday when we get back to school is it okay if I hang out with you and Evian?” she asked.
“ You know Evian?
“ No, I don’t, but I’ve seen you two hanging out, and I know Brittany is going to turn everyone against me,” she sighed.
“ Kara, are you my friend?” I asked. She nodded my head. “ Then you can hang out with me, or talk to me whenever you want. You don’t have to ask, silly girl!” I laughed. She started laughing, and nodded her head.
“ I got to get going, but I’ll talk to you later?” she asked. I nodded my head she smiled and turned around and started to leave. “ Talk to you later Ty!” She called out.
“ Cya Kara!” I said waving her off. I walked over to the swings, and sat down. Oh yeah baby I got two friends know. I let out a laugh.
“ What’s so funny?” Someone asked from behind me. I jumped and turned around and saw Art standing there.
“ Are you stalking me?” I asked.
“ Me?” He pointed to himself and shook his head. “ I would never do such a thing,” he smirked, and went and sat down on the other swing. I rolled my eyes, and kind of just sat there and looked down at my feet. “ Dude!” he yelled. I jumped up glaring at him.
“ God your so…” I grumbled shaking my head.
“ Lovable?” he asked.
“ Killable,” I snorted.
“ You know you love me…” He stopped. “ Deep… Deep… Like really deep down,” he muttered. I started laughing, because the way he said it was pretty freaking funny. He gave me a huge smile, and I smiled back, and I was looking at him, and saw how amazing his green eyes where. I noticed I was staring at him, and looked away. I looked up at him, and he grinned and I felt my stomach flutter. I cleared my throat and started to push my legs, and go higher on the swing. “ Well im going home. That’s where I was headed but then I saw you sitting here, and thought I was just say hi,” he said getting up off the swing. I gave him a wave. I heard my phone ringing in my pocket, and I pulled it out and stopped swinging, and flipped it open.
“ Hello?” I asked.
“ Hey T,” I heard Evian’s voice.
“ hey, what’s up?” I asked.
“ I got great news!” I heard him sing. I let out a laugh, and smiled.
“ What’s that great news?” I grinned.
“ Well there is this girl…” he started. I smiled.
“ And?”
“ Im going on a date with her tomorrow,” he said. My smile disappeared, and I put my feet on the ground. “ she asked me if I wanted to go on a date with her tomorrow and I said yes. She seems really cool. Isn’t this great?” he asked. I nodded my head, and closed my eyes.
“ T- that’s great Evian,” I whispered. “ That’s really great!” I said trying to sound happier.
“ You alright Ty?” he asked.
“ yes I just fell… of the swing,” I grumbled.
“ Wow..” he laughed.
“ yeah I know,” I muttered. “ Im ugh gonna go talk to you later Evian,” I muttered and then closed the phone. I sat on the swing and took a deep breath. Evian is my best friend. I should be happy for him. He is going on a date, and he is happy, so should i. but im not. I sighed, and leaned forward rubbing my hands against my face. I don’t like the feeling of Evian going on a date with another girl, but im not his girlfriend, im his best friend. I got off the swing, and made my way back to my house, so I could go try and figure everything out. When I got home the sky was starting to turn black, and I stopped in front of the house, and decided to go in the backyard. I got back there, and went over to the tree and climbed up it, and went into our old abandon tree house. I haven’t been up here for years. I got up there, and looked out through the window peering at the moon and starts.
“ Ty, you up their?” I heard Clay. I looked over at the opening of the floor, and saw Clay climbing through. He looked at me, and smiled. “ Man I haven’t been up here for years!” he laughed sitting down next to me and looking around.
“ Ditto,” I whispered.
“ What are you doing up here anyways?” he asked.
“ I just felt like I needed to go somewhere where I needed to think, you know?” I asked looking over at him.
“ Im here Ty,” he whispered.
“ I know Clay…”
“ Then why don’t you ever talk to me?”
“ It’s not that I don’t want to its just… I don’t want to be so much of a bother…” I said sounding stupid.
“ Tereschia, you will never be a bother to me.”
“ Clay you’re a seventeen year old teen. You should be going out and having fun, not being home watching your baby sister,” I said shaking my head.
“ But I do go out, and bring my baby sister with me,” He smirked. I slapped his arm.
“ Im serious Clay! I feel like im taking away your teen years.”
“ You’re not Ty,” he said. We looked at one another, and I sighed. “ Ty if I didn’t have you I would be miserable.”
