My Fake Lover

Lexi’s POV:

.

When school was finally over, I find myself leaning against Tyler’s locker. Like why the hell would I wait for my nemesis? I wanted to yell at him about earlier today at gym. But it’s a really bad idea. Tyler would give me a bigger headache. He will make me more angry at him. He always does eventually.

So I picked myself off his locker and left. But I didn’t actually leave because I didn’t have time. I took one step and someone called my name.

I signed. Why would I wait for him in the first place? Wait, I know the answer to that, it’s because I’m stupid.

When I finally turned around, I bumped into him and dropped all my books all over the floor.

I groaned and bent down to pick up my books. And no, Tyler did not help me with the books like you see in movies or read in books. Even though it’s his fault that I dropped them all. He was standing way to close to me. And why didn’t I put my stupid books in my backpack? Oh right, I’m stupid.

“What the hell, Tyler?”

“What?”

“Your such an arrogant and rude jerk. That’s what.” I said while standing up with all of the books.

“Then why would you wait for someone like me?”

“I wasn’t.” I lied.

“Yes you were. I saw you, I’m not stupid.” He rolled his eyes.

“Well I change my mind.” I smiled. “Now bye bye.” I said and patted his shoulder.

I turned around and started walking toward the exit.

Then I stopped. He actually deserves to have someone yell at him. He didn’t even say sorry for hitting me with the soccer ball.

When I turned around, Tyler was still looking at me. He had a serious expression.

I walked up to him and started yelling.

“Are you crazy? Did you loose your mind somewhere?!” All he did was stare right into my eyes and I looked into his green eyes. “I taught you were the soccer team captain. And you hit me in the head. And You don’t even know how to say sorry?!”

He didn’t say anything, just stared at me.

I sighed loudly. “I just needed to get that off my chest.” I said and left Tyler by his locker.

“Do you want to go shopping?” Emily asked me as she walked out of her bathroom.

I was laying down on her bed, staring at the ceiling.

“No.”

“Do you want to go get ice cream?” She asked.

“No.” I answered again.

“Come on Lex, we can’t just stay in here all day.” Emily said and sat on the edge of her bed.

“I can.” I signed.

“Is something wrong?” She asked.

I sat up and looked at her. “I know what we can do. We can get Tyler to like Courtney by bringing them together at the Ice Cream Palace. I always said I would but I never got the chance.”

“Is this why you look so down? You feel bad for Courtney?”

“Well yeah, she isn’t even speaking to me.”

“She’ll come around.” Emily smiled, but it wasn’t her usual smile, it looked more sad.

“Are you okay?” I asked.

“Yeah, what makes you say that?”

“Come one Em. I know you, your not okay.”

“Fine.” She smiled, but it wasn’t at all real. “Nick isn’t speaking to me anymore. I saw him talking to Brooke after school today.” It looked like she was about to cry.

“Oh my gosh, I’m so sorry. You must really like him.”

“I do.” She said quietly and put her head on my shoulder.

“How about we do the Tyler and Courtney plan?” I asked. “It’ll get your mind off things.”

“Yeah, but aren’t you guys doing the fake couple thing again?”

“That’s so stupid.” I mumbled.

••••••••••

“Where the hell are they?!” I yelled in frustration.

Half an hour ago, I called Tyler to meet me at the mall and Emily called Courtney to meet her here. And not one of them showed up. We don’t expect them to show at the same time but at least one didn’t even show up and it’s been thirty minutes. Thirty freaking minutes!

It look like ten minutes to convince Tyler to come. Does he hate me that much? I told him that I ran out of money and I can’t pay for my ice cream. Since his family is rich, he can pay for it.

Thirty minutes ago

When Emily and I got to the mall we went where they sell the ice cream. We have to call Courtney and Tyler to meet us here and then we’ll find a way to leave them so they’ll be alone.

“Okay, I’ll call Court, you call Tyler. Tell them to meet us here.” Emily said and grabbed her phone out her pocket.

“Why do I have to call Tyler?” I complained.

“Because Courtney’s still upset with you.” She said in a ‘duh’ tone.

“Fine.” I rolled my eyes.

I grabbed my phone from my butt pocket and called Tyler. On the fourth ring he picked up.

“What do you want?” Tyler said, in a rude way.

What’s was his problem? He was getting more friendlier with me.

“Uh-” I stopped, not knowing what to say.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

“Look Lexi, I don’t have time for you right now.” Tyler said.

“I have a problem!” I blurted out.

“Yeah, and what would that be?” He asked.

“Um-” I looked around trying to figure out what to say. “I have no money left and I already asked for the ice cream.” I finished.

Gosh, that is so dumb. Is that all you got Lexi!

Tyler began to laugh. “Are you fucking serious? That’s your problem?”

“Yeah?”

“Pay for your own ice cream.” He stated.

“I don’t have any money! I already told you!” I was getting mad at this jerk.

“Fine, I’m coming.” He hanged up right away.
