Tracey.

My mouth dropped open. "What the hell do you mean you're in love with Bianca?!"

Tremaine looked so lost. " I don't know.. I mean it's the only logical explanation for why I would feel the way I do."

I paced the room, frowning. "That explanation doesn't really seem logical to me. After knowing her for this many years and ignoring the crap out of her, you just decide that you love her? No."

He shifted on my bed, staring at me for a moment. "You know what I don't understand?"

"What would that be?"

"Why you won't even entertain the thought. I came to you because I thought you would be understanding, and help me figure things out. Why?"

I sighed, walked over to my bed and sat down next to him. I grabbed his shoulders and looked him in the eyes. "Because I know you. Better than you know yourself apparently. You don't love her, and I don't want you going around telling people that you do. When you realize your true feelings, it's just going to break Bianca's heart, and you've done that enough times already."

Trey clenched his jaw. He had a confused and angry look on his face as he looked into my eyes. That look sent chills down my spine, it scared me. He never looked at me like that before.

Suddenly, he pulled out of my grip and got off the bed. He walked to the door and opened it. He started to walk up, stopped, then turned around.

"Thanks for nothing Tracey." And with that, he was gone.

I sat on my bed, shocked. Is he seriously mad at me? I was just telling him what he needs to hear, I know what I'm talking about. He's going to break her heart again, I just know it. I want to save Bianca from all of that, and save Tremaine from turning this into a disaster. Why can't he get that?

I stared out the window for a few moments, staring at the sun set and the bare branches On an impulse, I got up and pulled my boots on. I ran down the stairs and put my coat on. I was opening the door when I heard my mom say,

"Where exactly are you going Tracey?"

I stayed quiet for a moment. "Out." And I closed the door behind me.

--

I pulled up at the park and stopped the car. The sun was almost finished setting, and the park was plunging into darkness. My mom always warned me about being alone after dark, but right now I don't care. I got out of the car and started to walk around the park.

The wind was blowing hard, and the cold was biting my skin. I pulled my jacket in and started to walk a little faster.

I don't know why, but I feel so alone. I mean, I have Bianca and David, but without Tremaine I feel incomplete. He's like my brother, and I love him. I don't want to see him upset, especially not with me. I guess I should apologize to him.

An arm went around my shoulder, shocking me out of my thoughts. I jumped, and turned around to face whoever it was.

I sighed with relief. "Aiden?"

He laughed, showing off his beautiful smile. "Did I scare you?"

My eyes widened. "Yeah, a little!"

The smile left his face, and he got serious for a moment. "I'm sorry. What are you doing out here anyway? It's late, you shouldn't be alone."

I folded my arms and rolled my eyes. "You sound like my mom. What are you doing out here so late?"

Aiden laughed again- I love when he laughs. "I'm out here running. That wasn't obvious?" He gestured to his outfit.

He was wearing a sweatshirt, basketball shorts, and running shoes. I felt stupid.

"Oh."

"Oh come on, don't feel bad. You can still tell me why you're here," he said smiling.

"Just taking a walk, I needed to think about things."

"Things like what? You and David still fighting?"

I sighed. "No, David and I are okay now. Tremaine, on the other hand, is mad at me."

"What did you do?"

I glanced at him, then looked away. "I said some things I shouldn't have."

We were both silent for a moment. Then, Aiden broke the silence."Okay, you obviously don't want to talk about it. You know what would make you feel better?" he said smiling.

I smiled back at him. "And what would that be?"

"You should jog with me."

Scrunching up my face at him I said, "Are you serious? I'm not really in the right clothes to be jogging." I gestured to my outfit.

He laughed. "Come on, it'll be fun. I promise."

I rolled my eyes. "Fine, but only because you begged me to."

Aiden started jogging ahead of me, and I followed behind.

Teasing him, I sprinted in front . I looked behind me, stuck my tongue out at him, and... I tripped.

I shrieked as I hit the ground, and Aiden ran and crouched down next to me. Holding back a grin, he said "Damn, are you okay?"

I hit his chest. "Shut up and just help me up!"

Laughing, he grabbed me by the arms and pulled me up. I looked up at him and caught his stare.

We looked at each other for a few moments. All of a sudden, I felt this strange urge to kiss him. It was like there was a force that was drawing us together. I pushed the thought out of my mind, and pushed myself away from him.

"Uh, I'm sorry. I have to... go." And I ran back to my car.

I sat in my car, freaking out. What the hell is happening? This cannot be happening again. I can't deal with another Cameron incident. I don't even think that situation is completely cleared up. I need to tread lightly, not keep making more waves.

But then again, Aiden is a really nice guy. And nothing really happened, right? I shook that thought out of my head. I thought the same thing about Cameron before he showed his true colors, and look what happened there. I have to make sure this doesn't happen again. I'm walking on thin ice with David right now, and I can't risk this.

I turned my car on and started to drive away. Aiden's beautiful face swam into my thoughts, and it sent a chill through my body. My hands started shaking, I pushed his face out of my head, and kept driving...

David.

I was playing Call of Duty on my Xbox ever since I got home from the mall with Tracey. It feels good to finally be on good terms with her. It seems like all we've done since we started dating was fight. I mean, I love her and all, but all that fighting was tiring. Maybe we can finally get back to normal.

At some point while playing, I thought that I heard someone knocking on my door, but it was faint. I ignored it, and keep playing.

A few minutes later, my phone started ringing. It was Tremaine.

I picked up. "Yo."

"Answer your door man, what the hell!" he yelled into the phone.

I sucked my teeth. "Alright, hold on. Damn."

I ran downstairs and opened the door. Tremaine stormed in, upset.

"Calm down. I didn't hear the door, its not that serious." Why the hell is he so upset?

He walked upstairs to my room, and I followed. When I walked into the room, Tremaine was sitting on my bed and staring into space.

"I'm sorry man, I'm not mad at you." he said suddenly, sighing.

"Then what the hell is the problem?" I asked.

"Your girlfriend can be a real bitch sometimes bro." he said with anger.

"Whoah whoah whoah. Watch your mouth when you talk about my girlfriend, and she's like a sister to you, why the hostility?"

Tremaine sighed again, running his hands through his hair.

"You know how Tracey is always coming to me for help? I always support her and give her good advice. I thought that shit worked both ways. So I went to her house today so I could tell her that I think I'm in love with Bianca and ask her what I should do. You know what she said? She said that I'm not in love with Bianca. Point blank. She wasn't even willing to talk about it."

He looked up at me, waiting for a response. To be honest, he kind of caught me off guard with that information. I didn't know what to say for a minute, but I shook myself out of it.

"Tremaine, I'm going to give it to you straight because I'm your friend. Tracey was right- you're NOT in love with Bianca. You've never been in love with anyone, ever. She was just trying to save you from making a big mistake, just like you do for her when she comes to you for help."

Tremaine glared at me for a minute. I held his stare, unafraid, Then, he slumped his shoulders.

"You're right," he finally said,

"I know I am, and you need to apologize to Tracey."

He waved me off. "Yeah, yeah, later. I'm kind of relieved I'm not in love, I was scared for a minute."

I shook my head. Tremaine has serious commitment issues, it's kind of pathetic. I hope he grows out of it eventually.

Tremaine jumped up." I have to go. There's some fun that needs to be had." and he ran out of my room.

"Don't forget to apologize!" I yelled after him. He didn't respond.

I sighed. My friends are a mess.

Tracey.

I finally arrived home after my encounter with Aiden. My heart was still fluttering as I remembered staring into his eyes and feeling that pull. I tried to shake the image out of my head. As I pulled up the driveway, the headlights shined on a very familiar, very annoying figure.

It was Cameron. He smiled at me as I parked the car, watching my every move. I took a few deep breaths before I stepped out of the car, barely processing the situation that I was currently in. I slowly walked over to him, meeting his eyes as he continued to smile at me.

"Hello princess, how are you doing this beautiful night?" he said, voice dripping with a tone I couldn't identify.

"I am going to ask you this once nicely, what the hell are you doing at my house?" I growled through my teeth.

"Now that wasn't nice at all," he said smiling at me again.

"Don't test me asshole"

"Whoah, let's be a little civilized baby. I'm only here to check up on you. Over David that quick?"

"What do you mean?"

"I saw you with Aiden a while ago, I only assumed..."

"What the fuck, are you following me?" I said, raising my voice.

"You really need to be more civilized princess. So you're still with David, but you're messing around? How very interesting." he grinned.

"I am NOT messing around with anyone. Aiden and I didn't do anything."

"Whatever you say princess."

"STOP calling me princess, STOP following me around, and GET OUT OF MY LIFE!" I screamed.

I started walking away, then stopped and turned around. "When I get to my room and look out my window, you better be gone. This better be the last time I see you."

As I was opening my front door, I heard him say "It's far from the last time princess. You know I can't stay away from you..."
