THE FILL IN BOYFRIEND

LOOOK DOWN.................................. CHAPTER 9 His outgoing message ended, followed by the loud beep. I took a breath and said, “Hey, Bradley, it’s me. Call me back when you get a minute.” I wasn’t going to tell him in a voice mail that I wasn’t regretting our breakup. I pressed End and threw the phone on the passenger seat. When I pulled up to my house, Claire’s car sat out front and she sat in it, waiting for me. “Hey,” I said as we both stepped out of our cars. She held up a cup. “A few days late, but here it is.” I joined her. “What is it?” “A milk shake.” I smiled and gave her a hug, holding on for a couple of seconds too long before pulling away. “You’re the best. Let’s go inside.” “I can’t, I’m going surfing. Wanna come?” I laughed. “Are you going to ask me that every time you go? It’s as though you like to hear me say no.” She smiled. “I just feel like you’re missing out on one of the true joys in life.” “What’s that? Super-freezing water, g...

5 Important Reasons Not to Rush Into Relationships

A broken heart is definitely not the most positive emotion in the world, and sometimes it feels that new love is going to cure all the pain immediately and forever. But is that really so? Bright Side found several really important reasons why you shouldn’t rush into relationships. 1. Loneliness Before you start dating (or even just looking for) a new person, you should always ask yourself a very important question: “What for?“ And if the answer is something like ”Oh, I feel so lonely," you should really reconsider your approach. Learn to enjoy time spent just with yourself. It’s perfectly ok to feel happy being alone. You don’t need another person to make you feel happy. Join a club (yoga, craft, board games, etc), start learning a new language, or find a volunteer or charity organization to make you feel happy and satisfied. Surrou...

THE FILL IN BOYFRIEND

CHAPTER 2 Contd I smiled. I couldn’t help it. He was actually wearing a suit—black, with a light gray tie. His glasses were gone and he was tall. This was exactly what I needed. We’d be seen. He could break up with me at the end of the night. No smug looks from Jules, no pity sighs from Laney, and no just-tell-the-truth head tilts from Claire. And it would be close to the truth. My fill-in guy was just rearranging tonight’s order of events for me a little. There was no harm in that. Especially if it kept the quarter-evil Jules at bay. “Hi,” I said, approaching his car, where he still stood by the open door as if he hadn’t completely committed to this idea yet. “You look great.” My eyes went to his hair that I could see better now that I was closer. It was a mess. A mess that he had tried to tame, it seemed. “Sit for a sec.” I pointed to the seat of his car. He raised an eyebrow but obeyed. I fished out a small comb from my clutch and used it to style his hair. When it was o...

THE FILL IN BOYFRIEND

CHAPTER 4 . Her eyes squinted in confusion and then she said something to the guy standing next to her. He looked as well then nodded his agreement. With that, they both headed our way. “Incoming,” I whispered. Fill-in Bradley’s gaze followed mine and he smiled like it was no big deal. “I’ll take care of this.” He stood. I wondered if I should follow him or just sit here and watch. I went with the sit-here-and-watch option. When he reached his sister she spoke first, pointing at his clothes. He said something back. Then her head whipped to me, a look of anger there. So much for being cool about this. “What’s going on?” Jules hissed. Of course she was the first one to notice. This was all about to blow up in my face. I knew it. I probably deserved it too. I’d done something stupid and it hadn’t lasted for more than an hour. I should’ve just come clean right away: Bradley broke up with me. Claire and Laney would’ve understood. They would’ve believed me. They probably would...
