Annabel

I’m sitting talking with CC when I see Ashley and Andy talking about something. Moments later, Andy gets up and heads over to where Juliet, Carrie and Sammi where. He says something to Juliet and both of them go inside the house. I can feel my muscles tighten out of jealousy but I just shake my head and take a big gulp of my beer.

“You ok?” CC whispers in my ear. I turn my head and just nod; shooting him a weak smile. “That’s completely bullshit and you know it.”

“I’m fine, really.” I assure him.

“You still love Andy don’t you?” He asks, just as Ashley sits down next to us.

I’m about to open my mouth to reply, but quickly shut it when Juliet’s voice comes booming from inside the house. Everyone in the backyard turns and looks at the door; watching Andy ad Juliet arguing over something. Suddenly Juliet storms out of the house and stomps over to me. She grabs me by my shirt and pulls me onto my feet and straight into a punch.

Stunned, I look up at her. “What the fuck was that for!?” I scream as I push her away from me.

“You were just using me to get to Andy!” She screams. “You never wanted to be friends with me; you were only using me to get your boyfriend back.”

I just stand there, shocked. “Juliet, I never planned on doing that.” I calmly tell her. “I don’t need him back. I’m perfectly happy with us just being friends.”

“Apparently, Andy thinks something else.” She spits. “I should have known his past love would come back into his life. We were so happy then everything changed when you walked your hoe ass back into his life.”

“Hoe ass?” I spit at her. “Girl you better watch what you fucking say to me! I’m not the hoe here. I broke up with him and I’ve been happy ever since.” I yell at her, knowing that what I just said is a total lie.

“Save it!” She yells. “I hope you and Andy have an amazing life together.” She spits at me before turning around to see Andy standing behind her. “We’re over!” With that she storms away, leaving the whole party in shock.

I wince in pain as I feel my jaw slowly starting to swell. Juliet can definitely throw a punch. Andy sighs before grabbing my wrist and dragging me inside the house. “Sit on the counter, I’m going to get you some ice.” He demands as he walks over to the freezer. I do as I’m told and hop up onto the counter. “Looks like Ashley is out of ice.” he says. “Which do you prefer, frozen steak or frozen peas?”

I let out a chuckle, causing Andy to look back at me with a smirk on his lips. He throws the frozen steak back in the freezer before closing it and walking over to me. “Juliet can sure throw a punch.” I say before wincing once Andy puts the bag of frozen peas on my face. I smile before putting my hands on it to hold it there.

“I’m sorry about that.” he apologizes. “I didn’t think she’d punch you.”

“I should have known though.” I chuckle. “I’m assuming you told her we dated.”

“Yea.” He mutters. “And I told her that I may still have feelings for you.” I feel my heart skip a beat as Andy looks at me with his brilliant blue orbs. I put the bag of froze peas down before leaning closer to him. My hand goes on his neck as my lips gently crash onto his. Without thinking almost, he kisses back as his arms go around my waist…
