SAY WHAT NOW?
Derek’s Perspective


I drive up to my house and open up the front door quietly just in case Jess was taking a nap. She was not, I repeat, not taking a nap.
I walk in to find my girlfriend, the one that कहा she knew the best for me and would never cheat on me, was sitting there अगला to Landon. My best friend! She kept on trying to get closer to him, but good ol’ Landon kept pushing her away. “Come on!!” she was whining, “You know आप wanna snuggle!”
“No. I absolutely don’t want to ‘snuggle’,” he replied, I could see horror on his face as he kept backing away until he fell onto the floor.
“HA! I’ve got आप now!” She yelled out, smug with victory. Just at that moment I decided to make myself visible.
“HEY!” I yell out before she could do anything that would scare my best friend away from me forever.
“Dude… It’s NOT what it looks like-” Landon starts.
“I know. I’ve been standing here for a few मिनटों now,” I reply, looking Jesse right in the eye, which quickly flitted away to avoid eye contact. “Jess,” I say slowly, still in shock, “explanations?”
“Wellll…” she started, “He कहा that he wanted to get to together and not tell you!”
“No way! Dude, believe me, आप know I wouldn’t do that,” Landon retorts.
“Likely story, Jesse…” I say sarcastically, “Listen, now that I know that you’re so likely to just run off from me, we’re…. done. Over with. So get the heck out of my house.”
“But I प्यार you! We were supposed to be together forever!!”
“That’s what I thought at first, too. Not so much now. Get OUT of my house. NOW.”
“Fine, just let me do one thing before I leave…” she said, with a mischievous look in her eyes. She leaned down and whispered something in Landon’s ear… Something that I couldn’t hear.
Landon looked positively terrified as she backed away slowly, with a small smile on her face until she was out the door.
“What did she say?” I ask Landon.
“Text me…”
