Chapter 6

Kace

I didn't mean to yell at her,I was just angry because my mom almost died this morning, she was looking at dad's pictures and got sad,I was pissed at everything that I let it out on Hayley,I saw how her eyes softened in fear,I'm so stupid.

Drake walked to me looking pissed with blood on his shirt, "are you serious dude,why'd you yell at her?" "I didn't mean to" "well you did,I told you she had a soft heart as much she seems badass,she's fragile" "where is she?", he looked at his phone before looking up at me "she's at her house,maybe you should talk tomorrow" "I guess" "trust me Kace,you're lucky she asked me not to punch you" he says shaking his phone "I gotta get her something to eat, see yah" "yeah,why's your shirt all bloody?" "I got in a fight with my ex,don't worry" "right,later".

"Where's Hayley?" Mom asks looking up from the book she was reading "I sorta yelled at her" I answer still feeling like crap "why?,did she do something wrong?" "no,I was with this other girl and she saw, I got mad because it was my fault", I can't tell her the real reason,"you better fix it Jay,that girl's a keeper" "don't I know it", she smiles "and Lindsey called, wanted to know if you two could talk" "what'd you say?" "I said no,I love Hayley and she makes you happy,even her name makes you smile, I can't let that whore ruin your last chance at happiness", yeah,it's true, Hayley's got quite the hold on me,"good call, do you really love her mom?" "of course,she's funny and adorable, she argues with you just to get you mad at her then you two practically make up in two seconds", this woman is unbelievable,"yeah" "and that thing at dinner the other night Jay?" "yeah?" "I'd be trying to seduce my girl if she looked that hot,no one blamed you", I chuckle "I'm gonna try and talk to her because we've never really fought before" "you do that,I'm gonna fix dinner okay?" "okay", I walked up to my room,seeing Hayley's dress on my bed,"man".

"Are you gonna look at her all day?" Ashley asks "I'm afraid of that girl Ash" I answer,she rolls her eyes "just go,I'm sure she'll talk to you" she says "no" "dude just go", I ignored them while looking at Hayley laughing at Drake,who was telling her something stupid,"Hayley?!" Josh calls, she looks at us "yeah?" "come here", she says something to Drake and he followed her "what's up?" "Kace wants to say something", Josh hit me in the head before walking away "I'll be over there" Drake says walking away also,Hayley looked up at me,the brown flexes in her eyes twinkling, "I'm sorry for yelling at you" I say "oh,don't worry Klara called last night" "she did?" "yeah,says she'd hate for me to leave you because of one mistake, I said it was fine,but honestly its not......I don't know what happened but the next time you want someone to put your anger out on,don't choose me" "Hayley, I'm sorry, really" "yeah, me too,I guess I'll see you around" she walked away dragging Drake with her, "is it just me,or is there something more going on between you two" Ashley says "I'm not even sure what we are when we're not around mom" I answer softly, not even sure we're friends.

Hayley

"I meant to say,no" I say to Drake "please,its just a party" he urged "yeah,with drunk and horny teenagers,no thank you", then he used the card on me "but it's the only way I'll get over Harry", I sighed throwing him a look of disbelief,"fine,but only because of that reason" I say and he kissed my cheek "bestest best friend in the world" "I know", I hated parties, like totally hate them,it's against my nature to go to these things but if it makes Drake happy, I'll do it.

Drake drank his fifth beer,"I just don't get why he cheated" Drake mutters,oh boy, "I was loyal this whole time,but no,he wanted a blonde,Hayles?" "hmm?" "what's wrong with me?,why didn't he love me like he used to?" "Drake,you're perfect, Harry was just stupid and he's a complete jerk" "I know,but it still hurts", he walks away and I follow him as usual,"Drake,come on.....don't cry", too late,Kace and Josh walked over to us,just great, me avoiding him was going so well,"hey,is he okay?" Kace asks "no,he's heartbroken and wouldn't get over that jerk of a ex" I mutter looking at Drake's clenched jaw,"oh,maybe Josh could cheer him up"he suggests, I look at Josh "yeah,maybe" he answers,he whispers something to Drake and they both leave,finally,"and you're still here,why?"I ask Kace,he shrugs "you really need to get that attitude of yours in check" "no thanks".

"Can I ask you something?" Kace asks "might as well" I answer "why are you so harsh on everyone and you know you're soft?" "because its better to yell at someone than someone yelling at me" "that's stupid" "as you?" "just be nice" "why?, you weren't" "I apologized Hayles,come on" "I didn't say I forgive you now run along and do what you do best".

Kace did do what he did best,being a player,its weird I feel tempted to break his neck but I want to break everyone's neck,I'm just that type of person,I'm not even sure we're friends,we talk at school sometimes and at his house but I'm still a little confused. "Aren't you gonna do sumn about it?" Ashley asks "why?" I ask watching Kace tonguing some chic,"you two would be cute together" "yeah right,like I'll ever date him" "your call sweety", I was in need of a bathroom,I just needed a free place,away from all of this. I walked down the long hall,this house is huge, well its Josh and Ashley's so its gotta be huge. I finally found a room,I couldn't hear the music,thank goodness,I walked to the bathroom and closed the door. The door opened and there was talking,"where'd she go?" "I don't know, maybe went home" "she doesn't even live around here" "I still don't know" "cool,just keep an eye out,I'm gonna try get some sleep" "okay Kace", I'm screwed.
