Best Friends

It's been one month since Juliet dumped me. I've been counting the days. Jules would come over every day to watch a movie, read to me, or bring the guys over and we'd hang out. Her attempts to help me aren't working. But I still appreciate her efforts...

"Andrew!" Jules calls and I'm sitting on the couch with beer bottles everywhere and fresh tears on my face. She runs up to me and puts my beer down. She sits next to me, wipes my face, sets my head in her lap, then runs her fingers through my hair.

When people run their fingers through my hair, it calms me down, helps me to relax. Jules is so sweet.. I sigh and just let her do this as I close my eyes. Then, I hear Jules voice start singing Savior. Her voice is better than Juliet's. I never told anyone that because if Juliet were to find out I said that, she'd kill me.

"Are you okay Andrew?" Jules whispers. She has never called me Andy. Is only Andrew to her. No matter how many times I tell her I hate it. She doesn't seem to care. I guess it's because she is a writer so she needs to sound sophisticated. She does it mostly to get on my nerves. But I kind of like when she says it..

"Yeah." I reply and sit up. I hold my head and sigh. "Listen, Andrew.. You have to stop drinking. It isn't helping anything. You don't write songs anymore, you don't do anything barely." Jules states with a sigh. "I know.. Just.. Leave me alone.." I sigh out. God my head hurts.

"Get over her!" Jules snaps at me. "She is nothing but a whore! An ugly one at that! You could do way better! Don't let her have the honor of breaking you down!" I gape at her. She's never went off like that. That wasn't very sophisticated...

"Jules.. It's harder than you think okay? Gosh. Get off my back.." I sigh out, annoyed. "Fine. I was trying to help. But all you were being is a dick to me. Goodbye Andy. Have a nice life." She gets up and walks out. She called me Andy. "Jules! Wait!" I get up and follow her.

"Please.." I grab her arm and she turns around, planting those pink, plump lips onto mine. My eyes go wide as I freeze. My best friend is kissing me. She pulls away and runs off. I touch my lips and watch her. "Jules.."
