taking chances
Chapter 2
"Give me the chance to treat you right." said Tyler. I
didn't know how to respond to that, so I just thanked him and
his friends for coming to the meet. I walked to the locker room
and quickly changed into a pair of shorts and an old swimming
tshirt. I didn't really know what Tyler meant when he said
that, and I felt kind of bad for ignoring him after
that.
"Hey Anna, wanna go get something to eat?" I asked,
wanting to spend some girl time with one of my close
friends.
"Sure!" she said, and we walked out to her car. We went
to the local pizzeria and and ordered, waiting for our pepperoni
pizza to arrive.
"So you and Tyler?" she asked me, taking a sip of her
sprite.
"I don't know. Right now, we're just friends."
I answered, because that's what I thought we were.
"Do yuo like him?" she asked me. Caught.
"Honeslty? I do. He's just different than most
guys." I said, playing with my straw wrapper. A few minutes
later, I saw a few guys walk in the door.
"Speaking of.." I said, and anna turned around and saw
who I was talking about.
"Go talk to him!" she said, and I shook my head no.
When our pizza came, I dug in, starved from all the swimming I
did today. I caught Tyler staring at me and laughing to himself,
probably at how ridiculous I looked right now. A few minutes
later, two girls from my school, Ally and Mandy walked in and sat
down with Tyler and his two friends. Mandy sat down next to
Tyler, obviously trying to flirt with him. She was practically on
his lap, and I looked away, not wanting to see him flirting it up
with another girl. Was I jealous? I think I was. When I finished
my pizza, I told Anna I had to go, and I stormed out of the
restaurant. I thought I saw Tyler get up when I walked out, but
probably not. I started walking home, because I coudn't be in
the same room as those two anymore.
"Kourt! Kourtney, wait up!" I rolled my eyes when I
heard his voice, and turned around, a fake smile on my
face.
"Is everything alright? You looked upset back there."
he said, making sure I was okay.
"No, everything's fine! I just have a lot of homework
and my brother needs me home soon." I lied, trying not to
make it obvious.
"Oh, okay. I I knew you were gonna be here, I would have
takne you with me." he said, his lips curving up into that
ridiculously sexy half-smile.
"Maybe next time." I said, turning around and walking
away from him.
"You need a ride?" he asked, grabbing his keys from his
pocket.
"Sure." I said, getting into his pickup truck. We rode
in an awkward silence for a few minutes, when he finally
spoke.
"Nothing's going on between Mandy and me." he
said.
"That's none of my business." I
responded.
"I can;t figure you out Kourtney." he said, giving me a
confused look.
"What do you mean?" I asked, curious as to what he was
talking about.
"It seems like one minute you're into me, and the next
you don't even want to be my friend." he said. I
didn't respond. I didn't respond to a lot of things he
said/
"This is my house." I said, pointing to the white
colonial house.
"Give em your phone for a minute." he said, a
mysterious glint in his eyes. I reluctantly handed him my iPhone,
while he gave me his. He took a funny picture of himself, and set
it as his contact number. I simply put my number in his phone as
Kourtney. He handed me my phone back, and I thanked him for the
ride. I walked into the house, my heart racing. I liked this guy,
but for some reason, I wasn't completely ready to let him
into my life.
