Strong From What They Made Me

I fell off my chair, laughing. "I told you!" I squeaked through laughter. He laughed along, and we got weird looks from the people at tables around us. "AIR! WHAT IS AIR!" I screamed. Somebody around me looked at me and grinned. "The invisible gaseous substance surrounding the earth, a mixture mainly of oxygen and nitrogen" She explained. I laughed harder. "Thanks lady. I'm Reese."
"And I'm twice your age."
"Oh yeah? And how old am I?"
"Twenty-four."
"HOLY SHIT. SHE KNOWS." Reese yelled. I was dying. I couldn't breathe because I was too busy laughing. So Reese held a picture in front of my face. "OH GROSS. NAKED OLD LADY!" I shrieked, shutting up. I got up and sat back in my chair, casually taking a sip from my coffee. "I missed this..." Reese said quietly. I nodded. "Yeah, me too."
"I mean really. After Amanda dumped me-"
"And I told you she would!"
"I know, after she did.... I freaked out I guess, and then I realized you were gone..."
"But I'm just on tour with a band."
"Our favourite band."
"Yeah."
"Are you.... having fun?" He asked. I paused and really had to think. "Over all... I guess..." I mumbled. He put a caring hand over mine. "What's wrong?"
"Well..."
"Well...?"
"Ashley cheated on me twice. I'm in love with him AND Andy, and Andy really likes me, but I think Ashley's goal is to break me, but we're just so close. And almost... Best.... friends..."
"So you've.... replaced me?" He sounded hurt. "We were mad at each other." I said, defending myself. "Yeah, I guess." He said quietly. I sighed. "This was fun, but I really should get going. I have a concert to work at. Thanks for flying all the way out to Illinois." I smiled. He nodded and I stood. "Bye Reese." I said, turning and walking out.

I threw the controller. "Noooo!" I wailed, slumping against Jake. I pouted. "I hate you."
"Yeah, sure you do."
"No, really Jake! I do!"
"Yeah yeah yeah."
"Oh you're right. Who could hate good ol' lovable squishy Jake?" I grinned. "Squishy?" He squeaked. I nodded and we laughed. He hugged me, I hugged back and Andy come out. "Concert tonight." He grinned. I smiled. "Do my warpaint! Do my warpaint!"
"Oh fine" Andy grinned. I sat patiently as Andy did my warpaint, and when he was done it looked like a mixture of everyone's. I grinned. "It's perfect!"
"I know. Isn't it?"
"Oh shut up you cocky bastard."
"Hm? Nah."
"Bitch"
"I know." He smirked. I laughed and got up, helping Jake up too. "Can we get pizza after Sandy?! Pleeeease?" Jake pouted. "Oh sure." I smiled. "I'm sure we could all go for some pizza." Andy added.
