~Part 2: Chapter 46~

Sienna

I almost couldn't believe my ears or my eyes at the moment.

Elise was pacing back and forth across the carpeted floor, of what I could only assume was Garrett's room from the lackluster background decorations.

"The guy is a sick fuck! I don't know how you dated or even fucked that piece of shit!" Elise screamed into the openness of the bedroom she was in.

Garrett popped into view with a grimace on his face, "We know for sure he had hit Sienna, so no surprise he put his hands on you. I don't know why you even started with that mouthing off shit. We had just gotten into it because of your mouth."

"I fucking know that, Garrett!" Elise shrieked.

"Like I said... always busy with that smart ass mouth," he muttered and stalked out of the room, closing the door harder than necessary behind him.

"Who pissed in his cornflakes?" I asked with a dry laugh and watched Elise wave her hands around in frustration on camera.

She then picked up her phone and moved quickly, "Me, I did. He was already mad at me for reasons we don't need to discuss this second. The only reason he's even allowing me to be over here is because he knows I was scared and upset."

"So you played damsel in distress to get him to come rescue you? I'm impressed, never thought you'd be the one to break," I said on a giggle.

"It's not funny, Si! He's clearly still mad at me, but if I say sorry anymore, I'm going to start fucking melting!" She cried out.

I couldn't help but to crack up with laughter. She always hated being wrong.

"Well, look who's the dumb one now?" I sassed her.

Elise flashed me her pointy middle finger and closed herself into the bathroom. When she managed to prop up the phone on the counter, she stood in front of the camera and covered her face with both hands.

After a few seconds of silence, she pulled her hands away and I felt a pinch of guilt, as tears started cascading down her face.

"Sienna, help me. You've always been the more emotional friend when it came to men. I'm struggling with this one because I like him more than I thought, but I can't get him like I'm use to with other men. He's not the same and I've truly upset him, but I don't know how to make it any better," she said on a shaky tone.

My heart tugged because I knew that Garrett really liked Elise too, but I also knew my best friend. She was a lot sometimes.

"Okay, breathe Elise. That's the first thing and the easiest thing to do. Next, tell me why he's mad? You said you didn't want to discuss it, but you've brought it up again," I mentioned softly.

"Because this shit is eating me up, Sienna. I don't want to bitch about it in his bathroom at his place, but I can't hold it in anymore. I feel like I'm going to explode!" Her blonde hair fell around her shoulders as she yanked it out of a wild ponytail.

"So explode, Garrett be damned! What happened?" I urged.

Suddenly, her cheeks reddened as she smiled at me, "We had a disagreement over friends... and relationships..." Oh no...

"Please tell me it was not about me or Zedlin," I groaned.

Elise sighed, "I'm not trying to piss you off, too! I just really need you to listen to me when I say that I'm happy when you're happy, but when you're sad it makes me mad. I know he does that to you. Garrett doesn't like that I'm on your defense when it comes to Zedlin... he thinks that I—"
