I walk into the house, and see that only Haz is here. I sit down next to him, closing his laptop and setting it aside.
"Can I help you?" He laughs.
"So.. you and Hannah." I say.
"Yes, what about it?" He asks.
"Do you like like her?" I ask.
"Savannah.." he shakes his head with a smile. "We're not having this conversation."
"Yes we are!" I groan. "Come on what's the fun in living with your little sister if you can't talk about things with her that all your friends would judge you for."
"I know what's going on." He says.
"Nothings going on." I shake my head.
"You want to talk about relationships because you're into Travis!" He exclaims and I actually burst out laughing.
"You've never been so far off in your life." I say.
He gives me a weird look, as if he's examining me. Haz and I may not be twins, but it's like we have the connection as if we were. He practically always knows when I'm having a problem.
"Is it Sutton?" He asks.
"Ew no." I cringe.
"Then what is it? You seem happier lately and I just know it's cause of a guy."
I really want to tell him.. to talk to him. Haz and I tell each other everything. I don't think I've ever kept a secret from him, he's my very best friend.
"Can you promise not to be mad?.." I ask.
"Of course." He says, looking a little more concerned. "What is going on?"
"I'm so scared you're going to be upset." I say.
"Hey, Sav, I'm not going to be upset I swear, please just tell me what's wrong."
Here we go.. this is such a bad idea.
"I slept with Tom."
Haz's face goes blank, almost as if he didn't hear what I said. I raise my brows at him, wanting some kind of reaction, but he gives me nothing. I don't know what came over me, making me think it was a good idea to just blurt this out. The guilt maybe?
"Haz?" I say.
"I'm sorry what?" He says, now looking confused.
This was a mistake.. why the fuck would I tell him?! He's going to hate me! And Tom!
"I've really been struggling with this.. I haven't known what to say, or how to say it. I hate lying to you, you know that." I say.
"When did this happen?" He asks, not looking at me.
"It started a few weeks ago-"
"Started?!" He exclaims.
Oops.
"So you're telling me that you've done this more than once?!"
"Yeah.." I say quietly.
"I'm gonna fucking kill him." He shakes his head.
"Haz stop overreacting." I roll my eyes.
"Overreacting? Savannah look me in the eyes right now and tell me you aren't falling for him." He says.
I look down to my hands, avoiding his gaze and staying silent.
"You know how Tom is Sav! He doesn't want a relationship. You're going to get your heart broken again." He says.
"But I think he likes me too.." I sigh.
"I'm sure he does, but he is not capable of loyalty and commitment. At least not right now." He explains. "Wait.. what about hope?"
"She was fake, we made her up to throw you off then hired that girl to play her." I say.
"Why the fuck would you do that?! You guys are insane!" He yells.
I hear Toms car pull up, and Haz looks out the window.
"Haz." I warn.
"You stay out of this." He says.
"This is about me!" I scoff.
I hear the front door open and stand up quickly, following behind Haz.
"Hey guys what's up?" Tom asks.
"You're fucking my sister?!" Haz yells at him.
Toms eyes widen bigger than I've ever seen, flicking over to me.
"I uh... I-" He stutters.
"I'm sorry I told him.." I say.
"This thing between you two? It's done. Over." Haz says. "You're not going to screw over my sister like every other dickhead on this planet."
"Mate it's not like that, lets talk-" Tom says but Haz cuts him off.
"No see here's the problem, you should have told me when this started. You only want to talk now because I found out. This is over." Haz turns to me. "If I even catch you looking in his direction I will send your ass to the dorms so fast."
"Really? You'd kick me out?" I ask.
"I'm being dead serious." He says.
"Mate we're grown ass adults." Tom says.
Oh no.. that definitely wasn't a good idea.
"Yet you act like children sneaking around! I think you both know this won't end good. You know how Savannah is man."
"What does that even mean?" Tom asks.
"The fact that you can't even see what's right in front of you just proves that you are the wrong guy to be messing with my sister." Haz shakes his head.
"I'm going on a drive." I say, grabbing my keys and leaving the house without saying another word. I don't even like driving but I can't stand another minute in that house with them.
I shouldn't have said anything to Haz. That was a mistake. I was so caught up in the guilt of lying to him, I didn't even think about how angry he would get with Tom. Part of me thought he would be okay with it, he always used to say he saw us ending up together. I guess he was talking about the later future, or maybe the past, obviously just not us right now.
I pull my car into an empty parking lot, and park. I just know Tom and Haz are going at it right now, and I feel so bad. I very well could have just fucked up their friendship for a little bit.
I pull out my phone, texting Hannah.
Savannah: do you think I can come stay the night?
I wait a few minutes, and it starts raining, the water drops pouring onto my car. It's weirdly comforting to me.
Hannah: yeah of course! Is everything by okay?
I start my car and text back.
Savannah: I'll explain everything when I get there.A/N: aaaaa this chapter was stressful to write
