“Brendon? What are you doing here?”
“Picking up my date.”
“Hey man, what are you doing here?” Spencer followed behind him.
“Picking up my date, god. I can’t do that?” Kay squeezed by me.
“Bye Lys! Have fun on your date!” she told me and Brendon smirked.
“You too!” I was confused as hell.
“When did that happen?” Spence asked me.
“I don’t know. But please come in I have to grab my jacket, purse and keys to lock up.” he followed me in.
“Nice place.”
“Thank you. We try.” I laughed. I let him look around a bit more. “ Ready?” he nodded and walked out. I locked the door. He took my hand and opened the door for me. “Thank you.”
“Your welcome.” he got in and started the car. “What would you like to listen to?”
“Any thing you listen to is fine with me.” he kept the cd in but turned it down low. I looked out the window as we drove by thinking of why Brendon and Kay were going out on a date. I really didn’t have enough time to tell Kay what happened and I don’t think Amanda had time. Should I text her? No I’ll just leave her be. It’s not Kayla’s fault. I do blame Brendon. But then what did that kiss mean? And what about Friday? Are we still going? Wait, I thought Jon was interested in Kay and vice versa. Oh god. I might be reading too into this.
“Don’t you think he could be getting back at you for going out with me?” Spence told me.
“He could be.” I responded not realizing that he didn’t know what I was thinking. “But I how did you know?”
“I just figured that’s what was wrong because I know you like him.” he replied.
“Oh, wow you’re good.” I laughed. “I’m sorry for thinking about it, though.”
“No it’s ok. I understand completely.” he said and we pulled into the parking lot. “I hope you like Chinese food.”
“I love Chinese food.”
“ Awesome, I’m in the mood for sweet and sour chicken.”
“Are you serious? That’s my favorite!” I beamed. He just smiled back. Then came around and opened the door. “Thank you.” Spencer is such a gentlemen. We walked into the restaurant and was seated by the window. The waiter quickly took our order and we launched into a conversation.
“How long have you’ve been playing the drums.” he asked me.
“Since the fifth grade. You?”
“About the age of 7.”
“Aww. I can just picture you playing you’re little drum set.” he chuckled.
“Thanks.” Our conversation went from music to movies to books to friends and families by the time it was ready to leave for the concert. By then it was close to eight-thirty. We arrived at the club 20 minutes later. Spencer ordered me a drink and we sat close together throughout the whole show. His friend was an awesome drummer, but I definitely heard this band before.
“Hey Spence, not to burst your bubble, but I know the band.” I confessed.
“ It’s ok. I’m glad you heard of them, but how?”
“My best friend dates the singer.”
“Amanda?” I shook my head no. “Kayla.” again, no. “Then who?”
“She’s a forensic scientist. Works very odd hours. The swing shift they call it. She might be back when we get home. Her name is Kristan.”
“Yes. Of course Ryan has mentioned her.”
“ Yep, that’s her.” I smiled. Yellowcard finished up their set and we went to go say hi to LP, the drummer.
“Hey Lys.” he hugged me. We tried to date but things didn’t work. We’re better off as friends anyway.
“And Spencer. Glad to see you made it to a show.” he hugged Spence, too. It was cute. “This is Alyssa, Lys this is Spencer he-”
“I know, I came with Spencer.”
“Came? As in on a date?” LP asked surprised. We shook our heads. “Wow what a small world it is. How did you two meet?”
“I’m working on their new music video. And, well, he asked me to come check out his friend’s band. And here I am.”
“Nice.” LP commented. “How have you been Lys?”
“Not bad, and yourself?”
“I’m living.” he smiled at me. Then some commotion was heard and some yelling. “I’ve gotta get back there and help them move my set before they break another cymbal.” I laughed he shook Spence’s hand and kissed me on the cheek.
“You two used to date?” he asked.
“Yes, but it just wasn’t working out.” I informed him. “We’re just better off as friends.”
“Oh ok. That‘s good in a way.” I smiled.
“It is.”
“You ready to head back?”
“I am if you are.”
“Well I’m ready when you are..” he chuckled. And I looked around one last time before saying I was ready to go. He held my hand and walked me to his vehicle. Which, I’m sorry if I forgot to mention, is a Chevy cobalt. Blue in color. We still chatted on the way back to my house as he held my hand. Upon arrival I saw Brendon and Kayla at the front door - kissing.
“Can we go around the block?” He nodded and drove slowly around the block. They were gone the next time we stopped. Spencer got out and opened the door for me and walked me to the front door. “I had an awesome time.”
“As did I.”
“Thank you for everything.”
“Your welcome.” he leaned in to kiss me. And I leaned back and kissed him. He pulled me close by wrapping his arms around my lower back. I deepened the kiss and frenched him. We didn’t part for awhile. And he left me breathless.
“Thank you again.”
“Your welcome. I’ll call you.” I watched him walk away and get into his car before opening the door to the house. I saw Amanda sitting on the couch talking to Kayla. Kristan was in the chair eating a bowl of something. Amanda turned to me.
“Hey how was your date?”
“Great! I loved it. Spencer is such a gentlemen. How was yinz?” You can take the girl out of Pittsburgh but you can’t take the Pittsburgh out of the girl.
“Ryan is so sweet! He’s better than I imagined.” Aww that’s cute!
“Mine wasn’t that great.”
“Brendon not that exciting?” Amanda and I laughed.
“Not really, all he wanted to know was about you, Lys. Like he wondered what you and Spencer were doing and such. A real bore. Not that I don’t love you but it’s he asked me out and I got this feeling he was just doing it to get back at you.”
“Funny, Spencer said the same thing. I was wondering about it when I first got into the car but after that my mind and attention was on Spencer. I’m sorry that you had to go through that.”
“It’s ok. Not your fault. Besides I’ve got a luncheon with Jon tomorrow.”
“There’s your man!” Amanda told her. We all just laughed.
“So how was work?” I asked Kristan.
“Interesting. We started a case that deals with twins.”
“That does sound interesting.”
“Yep well I’m heading off to bed. What movie are we seeing tomorrow?” she asked. I glanced at Amanda. I know she wanted to see Happy Feet.
“Happy Feet, or The Prestige, or, oh shit, what else is there?” she looked at Kay.
“Good question.”
“Happy Feet sounds fine. Going to call Ryan and then going to get some shut eye. See yinz tomorrow.”
“Sweet dreams.” I said.
“Night.”
“I’ll be up soon.” came from Kay. We lived in an apartment looking house, but it was kinda small. It had two bedrooms on the top floor with a bathroom. Kristan and Kayla share a bedroom, called the Ks, while Amanda and I shared the other bedroom dubbed the As. It’s an old joke started back when we were still in high school. The As vs. the Ks. We, Kayla and myself finished the news and headed to bed while Amanda
jumped in the shower.
“I’m just curious what all did Brendon say about me?” I asked before she opened the door to her room.
“Do you mean asked?” she laughed.
“Yea, sorry.” I laughed
“what I thought you and Spencer were doing. If you liked him back. Stuff like that.” she told me
“Oh what did you tell him?”
“I told him that I had no idea what you were feeling but told him to talk to you about it.” I sat there and thought about it for a min.
“Thanks Kay. Goodnight.”
“Goodnight.” we parted ways and I changed into my pjs. I slipped into a dream about Brendon and Spencer. When I woke the sun was shining and the clock read 8am. Today was Thursday and I had an interview with a business company. Sony to be exact. I jumped into the shower and ate a small breakfast - a pop tart. Then put on Panic! In car ride to LA. Spencer had given it to me yesterday. Too bad Brendon sang most of the stuff, but I could tune him out and just focus on the drums. My interview was for 10 and I pulled in around 9:30. As soon as I parked my car my phone vibrated. It was Brendon. What the hell does he want?
“Hello.”
“Hi. Look I am really sorry about last night. I was a jerk and should have never taken Kayla out. She is a sweet girl and I was a horrible date. But she likes Jon anyway and I like you. But what do you feel about me?” What a mouth full. Oh god what do I feel about him? I hardly know him. “Hello?”
“Sorry. Look Brendon. Can I call you back I’m on my way to an interview for Sony.”
“Yes of course.” I hung up with my heart beating. I like him but yet I don’t know if I like him. And what about Spencer? I do like Spencer. But I was first attracted to Brendon. I can’t think about this now. I need to concentrate on my interview. I’ll worry about this later. I stepped out of my trail blazer and clunked on the pavement as I made my way to the building. Yet again my phone rang. It was Kayla.
“Hello?
“Hi Can you bring home some milk. Amanda drank the rest.”
“Sure 1% correct?”
“Correct”
“K I don’t know how long my interview will be but I will bring it home as soon as I get done. Call ya later. Love ya “
“Love you too. Good luck.”
“Thank you.” I hung up with her and put my phone on silent before walking in to the building. I found the floor I needed to be on and took the elevator up to the 15th story. Upon stepping out of the elevator I ran into an extremely hot male.
“Picking up my date.”
“Hey man, what are you doing here?” Spencer followed behind him.
“Picking up my date, god. I can’t do that?” Kay squeezed by me.
“Bye Lys! Have fun on your date!” she told me and Brendon smirked.
“You too!” I was confused as hell.
“When did that happen?” Spence asked me.
“I don’t know. But please come in I have to grab my jacket, purse and keys to lock up.” he followed me in.
