seven

Uh, no. It's Bryan.

Oh thank god.

We need to talk.

What's wrong, Bryan?

I think you and Shannon and Kyle need to talk.

No way.

Yes, way. You guys need to be friends again. What's past is past.

He hurt me.

He won't do it if you don't let him again.

Did they agree to it?

Yes. I thought  all 7 of us could meet up at a restaurant and talk...

What time?

Really?

Bryan, WHAT TIME?

seven, maybe?

Okay. Fine. Whatever.  Text me the address.

I sighed, and then hung up. I can't believe that I actually agreed to meet up wth them at a restaurant. Let's see how this goes.

It's 6:30 p.m. and I was ready to meet MDE at the restaurant. I was wearing a navy blue summer dress with a red flannel and some Vans (obviously). My hair was straightened and I was wearing thick winged eyeliner. I took one last glance in the mirror, then headed straight to Chipotle.

Chipotle was a ten minute drive from my house, so it didn't take me long to get there. Once inside, I spotted Bryan, Johnnie, and Jeydon sitting at a table by themselves. I slowly walked over to their table and sat down.

"Hey." I greeted everyone subtly.

"Hi!" Jeydon got up from his seat and gave me a hug, after he did, so did Bryan. Johnnie didn't say anything.

"Where's the rest of them?" I asked Bryan, trying to avoid Johnnie's gaze.

"They're on their way. Don't worry, it's gonna be okay." Bryan reassured me.

"Hey Im, wanna go with me, I'm gonna go order." Jeydon looked up from his phone to ask.

"Yeah, let's go." I told him and stood up.

Jeydon and I slowly made our way to the cash register.

"Yeah, can I have a fajita bowl?" Jeydon asks. "What do you want?" He turned to ask me.

"Same thing."

"Can you make that two, please?"

At that moment, I heard the front door of the restaurant open. I turned my head slightly and saw Shannon and the rest of them enter. I quickly turned around to look at Jeydon.

"Hey, don't worry. We won't let him be mean to you, but you have to listen to what he has to say, okay?" Jeydon told me with a smile.

"Okay."

"Excuse me, your fajita bowls are ready." The cashier brought us back from our conversation. He grabbed the tray, thanked the worker, then we quietly inched our way to the table. And of course,

Yes,

Yes it was.

Yes,

Yes I had to.

Sit in front of Kyle.
