Chapter 43

(edited)

"Aidren is in Florida"

"Come again" Angel says "Who's where"

"Aidren is in-"

"No yeah, I heard it correctly the first time" she says standing up from our couch "And how... do you know that"

"Hey I didn't do anything" I say throwing my hands up "He just randomly texted me... I haven't seen him since New York"

"Why am I rooting more for him than for Clay" she says with a stern look on her face, earning a deep sigh from me "Anyways, are you telling the guys?" she asks

"Why would they care" I roll my eyes "But, yes, today... We're going over. Clay wants all of us there for a pool day"

"Oh em gee, I totally forgot I had that thing today, sorry" Angel says with a sarcastic tone

"You're not getting away from this one" I say "Plus, I'll need you there... it's gonna be awkward"

"Why"

"Well I kind of... hookedupwithclayinfrontoftheboys" I quickly say

"No bestie, I think you're getting confused here... I will need you to go back, and much slower" she says, now fully laying down on the couch, placing her legs on mine

"I kind of hooked up with Clay in front of the boys" I repeat, but slower

Angel shots up from her position, looking at me wide-eyed

"You're back together?"

"No!" I say a bit too quickly

I'm a shit liar, but I'd be such a hypocrite if I pressured Clay into not saying anything, and then spill all the gory details to someone else, even if it's my best friend.

Angel gives me a weird look, clearly knowing something is off

"We aren't, we won't, don't worry"

I lie, again

"Then why did you-"

"I was drunk, he was there, and Nick dared me to" I tell her

"Right..."

"Yeah, and the next morning I woke up and yeeted myself out of their house" before I made a technical stop by the shower, clearly

Why can't I stop lying oh my god

"And you need me there because..." she drifts off

"Angie-"

"Fine, I'll go" she says rolling her eyes "Don't make me regret it"

"You don't have to talk to him!" I whine "Just act like a buffer"

"I said I'll go" she says abruptly standing up "But don't make me regret it"  she repeats herself

Angel then walks away back to her room, where I presume she'll start packing for today

"I love youu" I shout before she leaves

"I don't" she answers and I laugh

"I actually hate you for making me do this" Angel says once again when we approach Clay's house

"You're acting as if you're the one who broke up with him" I roll my eyes

"No, but I did yell at him, a lot... and kind of got in a fight with Nick too" she confesses

"What" I stop in my tracks "Why didn't you say anything?"

"Well... you were moping around, I got upset seeing you that way and gave Clay a piece of my mind" she whispers
