"You're in love with him."
"I'm not."
"You're in love with him, he's in love with you, what is the problem?"
"Are you dumb? We're both toxic for each other, we were never meant to fall in love or date, it just happened accidentally, it's like we both drive each other to the edge when it comes to relationships."
"There's nothing that can't not be solved by love." Jack chimed into conversation with me and Trevor.
"Why do you think that? I bet you can love a person to death but still not be able to solve your misunderstandings, because, they're not misunderstandings anymore, they have become the way you think, fighting becomes a habit, neither backs down and it just keeps getting difficult. It's like a game of tug of war. I can't believe I'm explaining my past relationships to two boys I don't even really know."
"We can get to know one another, you can tell us anything, know a little of our secrets and we know a little of yours." Trevor said softly, taking my hand and rubbing his thumb over it.
I took a sip of my coffee and shook my head, "It's not about secrets, I'm a difficult person, I wanted to get back with him too, but it hurts real bad when people leave and they always leave."
"Well, a lot of times all it takes is a little effort, a little trust, we two were strangers too before, fought all the time but we're family now." Jack said, softly running a hand through Trevor's hair with a fond smile on his face.
"Trust him again, give the boy a chance, he seems to be crazy for you."
"I do trust him, I always have, but I don't trust myself Jack, we two, we're good as we are, friends. Best friends. It's enough. Besides, our other best friend claims she's in love with him. He needs to move on too. I'm not in love with him anymore, I love him, there's a difference."
"I think she's right boys." Jullian? What was she doing here? Was she eavesdropping?
"Hi, Bee bear. Watcha doin here?" she asked standing directly to my left side. She had her arms folded across her chest, dressed in my brother's hoodie again.
"I'm on a coffee date, what about you?" I smiled weakly, trying not to let my bitterness show.
"I was looking for you, wanted to tell you how you've ruined everything for me!" she said with a sick sweet smile plastered on her face. I knew what she was talking about but to think I'll apologize again because Noah liked me and not her? He didn't accept her confession, I didn't force him not to.
I sighed and stood up, stretching my limbs a little. I was prepared, I knew this would happen since I had been taking note of how she had been showing quite repulsive behaviour since the past few minutes. She was breaking character of the sweet and fragile girl she pretended to be.
"You hoe, you don't wanna date him but you're not gonna let go either." She was fuming by now, her cheeks puffed out due to anger and pupils dilated. I glanced at the two boys who looked shocked with eyes as wide as headlights.
"Ooh, I'd suggest you keep your language in control, love. I don't like to hear such nicknames for me early in the morning." She gritted her teeth and tried to slap me, but couldn't do it. I quickly grabbed her arm and twisted it behind her back, enough to cause slight pain but not enough to break it, she was my brother's only love after all.
"Jullian, please, don't make a monster, I didn't want to do this to you, let it go, try to find somebody else, move on like you did from Jack. " She tried to pry free but I twisted her arm ever harder. The whole cafe was looking at us.
Amazing. Just amazing.
"Return all his stuff to me too, before I march right into your house." I let her go and she whimpered in pain shaking her arm. Why was she even crying?
It wasn't that painful, fragile fucking lizard.
"Let's go bee, we can buy another coffee," Jack said and Trevor threw an arm around my shoulders glaring at Jullian in anger walking us out of the shop.
"You good?" Jack questioned and Trevor looked at me for any signs of tears.
"Yeah, I'm perfect, just a little bummed out since my date with Jack got ruined." I say smiling at Jack, he smiles back and then scrunched his nose up at me.
"Wow, am I finally invisible?" Trevor scoffed with a bewildered expression, waving his hand in front of me. I giggled along with the two of them wondering how on earth he was so childlike.
"Bee, on a serious note, let's be friends. You can trust us."
Friends? It was a risk and I didn't want my heart broken again by another 'friend'. What if they left too? Heck I was pretty sure they would but looking at me then with one of them having an arm around me while the other held my hand, it was a new start but a part of me wanted to trust them so bad. They weren't Noah. They weren't Jullian. Maybe it was gonna be fine.
"Okay." My voice was barely above a whisper but it was enough, enough to let them know that I was willing. Wiling to take this risk.
"Great, now talk to me too. I wanna be friends too, not just him." Trevor pulled me away from Jack's side to his right so he was between us.
"Alright babies, let's go do something fun today."
"What?"
"You'll see."

"For the last time, Jack, I AM NOT GETTING MY HAIR DYED PINK!"
It had been 10 minutes for which Jack was trying to convince me to try several shades of pink in my hair. I didn't want to try pink in my hair. I had pink streaks once and they looked awful on me. I wanted to try something powerful, like red.
"I thought we could both get it done." he longed.
Oh, no, no, don't make the sad face.
"LET'S BOTH GET RED HAIR DONE!" I said quickly before he turned more sad and his face lit up. He nodded enthusiastically and I instructed the man what I wanted to get done so he could start working on me.
-
Okay, I knew Trevor was handsome but I had no idea the change of hair color could make him even more beautiful. Jack hadn't come out yet and I had tied up my hair to hide the new colour. I wanted show it off with a completely new look because red did not go with pink. He came out of another section about a minute ago and he looked hot.
His hair was now blue and it was the prettiest shade of blue. It appeared even more appealing against his skin because it was my favourite color. He had a cocky smirk on his face as he stared me back down. So he thought he could fool me into believing that he was some cocky bad boy when I know full well he's just a baby?
"Can't take your eyes off me, Bee?" He asked walking towards me with long steps. He was now hovering over me, trying to dominate me by caging me in his arms. Pfft, sure I'd be intimidated by him. I shoved him lightly and chuckled sarcastically.
"Just wait till I get home and change into something more suitable for my new look. And one more thing Trevor. I'm not that easily dominated by little boys like you," I said and pushed him away. He looked at me jaw fallen and eyes wide in offense.
"Bee!" I heard Jack's voice call out, and turned around to look at him. He always looked cute and all but in his now red hair he was giving off quite a different vibe, he looked hot too but the colour? It just went so nicely with his spotless skin that he looked even more ethereal.
"Jack, you look great! I'll show you mine once we get home." I hooked my arms through theirs and lead both of them towards the billing counter.
"And Trevor, you look absolutely gorgeous, don't worry, I was just messing with you." I said threading my fingers through his newly dyed hair experimentally. He gave me another grin and nodded softly.
"Let's get going."
"Can we go for shopping?" Trevor asked Jack who just looked at me in question and I shrugged. I had nowhere to be anyway.
"Sure Tae, do you need anything?"
"No, Bee said she needed new clothes, we've got time, why not go for it?"
"Oh, yeah, sure. I've got my card. I'll buy clothes now that I have time." I said with a nod.
"You don't always have time?" Trevor asked. I rose an eyebrow at his unusual comment.
"I left my job but I still train, how else do you think I got these?" I preposterously flexed my arms.
"Why do you train, though?" Jack asked smiling as he patted my biceps.
"Let's just go." I ignored Jack's question and dragged them ahead.
