~Tracy(six years later)~

"Christian come on! Breakfast is ready" I yelled. "Ok ok. I'm here aren't I?" He said walking in shirtless. My cheeks heated up. "Jesus! Wear a shirt!" I said. "Okay okay" Christian surrendered. He went to put on a shirt and came back in two seconds to eat.

"So Chris. There's this job interview I have today" I told him while he was munching on his bacon. "Job? Why?" He asked. I rolled my eyes. "Because I have to work and fend for myself, that way I can move out and stop freeloading" I told him. "But your not-". "Yes, I am!" I snapped.

I took my plate and put it in the sink. "I'm leaving" I said before going to my room.

After all this time, I still haven't gotten over Christian. My feelings grow stronger every year. I think I'm in love with him. And staying here will just make my love for him grow. I don't wanna ruin our friendship. I won't. So I have to get out.

A message suddenly came up on my phone.

'Hey Tracy. This is Elijah, from high school. I know seeing me is probably the last thing you want but, we need to talk. It's about Christian'.

I flinched. Elijah. Didn't he try to rape me back in high school? Why the hell would he wanna talk? About Christian at that? You know what...forget it. He'll probably just try to rape me again. And I don't wanna experience that type of fear again.

People like that never change.

"Trace, I'm having someone over for a bit!" I heard Christian shout. I walked over to my door and opened it. "Is it your girlfriend?" I joked, knowing he hates when I say that. "Heheh...sure it is" he chuckled. I flinched.

Whatever. I have to get ready for my interview.

What exactly should an orphan who dropped out of high school wear to a job interview? I have a black sweater and-wait no. I can't wear that to an interview. That's completely unprofessional. Christian bought me some really professional clothes, but it's not like I'm being interviewed for a real serious position. I'm just tryna be a waiter. Oh.

How about a casual dress? I think I wont be screaming too much professionalism, but I'll calm say I'm a normal girl that ready and willing to get this job.

Yeah!

Once I was done getting ready for my interview, I went downstairs and heard laughing. What the heck?

I stepped downstairs and saw Christian drinking with some girl. But not just any other girl, this girl was stunning. Her outfit was stunning. Her hair was beautiful. And her face was gorgeous.

I felt a wave of jealousy washed over me like a freakin tsunami. I wanted to freakin stab her face for attempting to steal Christian away. I can't lose him to another girl. Wait...why am I freaking out?

Whatever Tracy. Just go.

"Oh! Uhm...hi. Tracy right?" I heard her say. "Y-yea. And you are?" I asked her, not trying to sound any type of rude. "I'm Victoria, Christian's cousin" she smiled. Oh shit. I mentally sighed in relief, but immediately felt stupid.

"And I'm Ronan, also his cousin. Tori's my sister" I heard, averting my eyes to the guy that was standing in the kitchen. "Oh. Okay cool. Well uh...Christian, I'm leaving now, so have a nice day" I looked at him. He looked at me back. For a split second, we stared.

I walked out the house and sighed. I hate how I was jealous over his cousin. I mean, who does that. If I were to be in a relationship with him, and get jealous over every girl that looks at him, then I would be possessive right?

Geez. But dang. His cousin Ronan was just as hot Christian. It must run in the family or something. Something about the three of them gave me the shivers. I had absolutely no idea why. Neither do I care.
