Ari started her famous rattling ways.
    “They are for sure not going to let you walk now Ell s …oh my god , what the hell were you thinking hitting him and doing it right here in school in FRONT of everyone?? I mean I know you are third in the class but they might not let you walk!!! I can’t be up there giving a speech knowing my best friend is not going to be walking with me on the same stage! Have I not taught you a damn thin g?! I mea n, you needed to wait…..”
    “Arianna ! Please , shut the fuck up will you?” Jefferson shouted .
    Even though my hand was so swollen and hurt like hell, I had to giggle. Jefferson and Ari had a lov e/hate relationship. Ari lov ed Jefferson and Jefferson seemed to hate Ari . It was not always like that though .
    W hen I was ten ye ars old Ari became my best friend in school after she moved from Da llas to Austin. Jefferson was thirteen and use d play with us and tease the shit out of Ari. Then som ething changed when we were in ninth grade and he was a senio r. He would barely lo ok at Ari . He never wanted to be around her and that made life a bit d ifficult for me. I know he cares for her like a sister though. When Brad Roberts bragged that he was going to take Ari out to her parent’s lake house one wee kend and take her virginity, Jefferson found out about it and beat the shit out of Brad. Ari of course to ok that has a si gn of his undying love for her.
    I to ok it as he was protecting his little sister’s best friend because Jefferson just does things like that. That is why I need ed him so much and would be lost without him.
    Ari and Jefferson continued to bicker back and forth all the way out to Jefferson’ s truck , I just tuned them out because my hand was hurting so much otherwise I would have been annoyed with their bickering.
    Jeffers on helped me up into the back seat of his Ford F250 . Gunner ran up behind him and handed me a bag full of ice. HUH? Where and when d id he get that?
    “Thank you ah, um , Gunner.” I stuttered out.
    Jesus what was wrong with me? I could not even talk right. Why did he give me such weird feelings? Just when I thought it could not get any worse he smiled at me.
    Fuck me….those beautiful sky blue eyes and perfect white straight teeth to round out the most be autiful smile I have ever seen.
    “No problem Ellie . Try to keep it up above your heart sweetheart and here, take these Advil.” He handed me Advil and water.
    Gul p, I could not even speak. Ari leaned over and whispered in my ear, “Breathe Ell s , B reath e.” I sucked in a long breath and managed to thank him for t he ice, bottle water and Advil.
    “Hey, I’m Ari by the way , Ell ie ’s best friend.” Ari said .
    Gunner gave her the sweetest smile then leaned in a bit closer to me.
    “Let’s get you to the doctor , what do you say?” Gunner whispered against my ear. The feel of his hot breath against my face ca used my body to start to shake.
    “ Ahhh , yep okay , doctor sounds good, yep let’s go, let’s roll, let’s do this thing .”
    Okay why was my mouth still talking wh en clearly my brain had checked out the moment he smiled at me ? He shut the door and jumped into the front passenger seat. Jefferson started his truck and of course , Tim McGraw’s “ Truck Yeah ” started up. I swear to God if I had to hear that song one more time I was going to hurl.
    I lo ok ed over to Ari who had a shit eating grin on her face. She leaned over and said low enough to where only I would hear her. “ Okay that boy wants in your panties!!!”
    I just gave her my best SHUT THE HELL up lo ok and said “PESH…You’ re crazy! H ave I told you lately you seriously need therapy? Seriously ….. you do Arianna …I am beginning to get scared for you . ” I bit back at her.
    Ari threw her head back and laughed. “Bitch, you can’t tell me I am wrong on this one. Matter of fact , I would bet you that C oac h purse you have been eyeing the last three months, that that boy
