As Kristin followed Lo, thoughts started rushing through her head. Everything was messed up now. She couldn't believe it. Brody was dating Audrina. Anger rushed through her body, but she had to snap herself out of it. She had broken up with him because it just wasn't working, but why did she suddenly feel this urge to run up to him and confess that she had spent so many sleepless nights thinking about him, and that she didn't know whether calling it quits was the right thing to do then. But it was over, he had moved on. Kristin felt Lo tug on her hand making sure that she was alright and gave her a small smile. "It's gonna be okay." Lo whispered to Kristin. Kristin let out a breath and tried to make herself think that, but it just wasn't working.
"So how do you know Brody?" she suddenly heard Audrina's high pitched voice run through her head.
"Oh, um we know each other from back in high school." Kristin tried to smile, but she knew that she should tell the truth.
"Actually.."
"Yea, we were in a lot of classes together, as well." Brody interrupted, giving Kristin a meaningful look.
Kristin at first felt hurt, but then realized that he probably didn't want this to mess up his relationship.
"Um, yea." she added.
"Oh cool. I thought you guys like dated or something." Audrina joked.
"Yea, that would've been crack up." Kristin murmured, letting out a laugh with everyone else.
Kristin was suddenly aware of the party going on around her and smiled to herself. She came here to have fun, and that was something she was gonna try do.
"Lo, you wanna come with me to get a drink?" Kristin nudged Lo.
"Yep." Lo followed Kristin to the kitchen where a guy was decked out in only board shorts.
"Want a drink ladies?"
"Yep." Lo giggled, as she looked over at Kristin.
"Oh, and one for me."
"Cool." The guy said as he filled a cup for each of them. "By the way I'm Scott."
"Nice to meet you." Lo smiled.
Kristin smiled and laughed inside as she saw the telltale signs that Lo already had already developed a thing for Scott.
"I'll leave you guys for now. Lo, I'll meet you by the pool when you're done."
Lo started to interrupt but was stopped by Kristin, "Bye." She waved as she walked away, listening to Lo and Scott get back to talking.
Kristin was now sitting on the edge of the pool, slowly taking sips of her beer and looked around. She spotted Brody walking towards her and gasped. She turned back to the pool and preyed that he wouldn't talk to her.
"Hey." Kristin heard from behind her.
She sighed and turned to look up at Brody, "Hey." she awkwardly nodded.
Brody looked around and took a seat next to her. "So, yea. I guess you now know that me and Audrina are dating."
"Yep."
"I just wanted to make sure that everything was okay with us, cause you seemed pretty tense when she introduced me."
"Oh, it was nothing. I was just surprised. That's all." she lied as she fiddled with her cup.
"And sorry about that whole pretending we didn't date thing. I just would rather Audrina didn't know."
"It's okay."
"Cool. I guess I'll be seeing you around." She nodded as he got up.
"Bye."
"Bye."
She turned back to the pool and bit her lip, the party wasn't going as well as she had hoped.
By the time the party had died down she and Lo were back in the car driving to their place.
"So, how was Scott?" Kristin smiled as she glanced towards Lo.
"Well, I got his number." she smiled waving her arm.
"Nice choice of where to write it down."
Lo rolled her eyes, "We didn't have paper, so.." she shrugged.
"You had to do what you had to do." Kristin thought back to her talk with Brody and for some reason felt unhappy.
"You okay?" Lo asked,worryingly.
"Yea, it was just this chat I had with Brody while you were with Scott."
"What was it about?"
"He just wanted to know if I was okay with him and Audrina being together."
"Are you?"
"No, but I said yes anyways." Kristin confessed.
"At least we don't have to see him anymore."
"Yea."
As Lo and Kristin neared home, little did they know that Brody would soon pop up in their life, in a very unexpected way.
