" C-caleb... over h-here... "
-
I spun around on my heels to the sound of a faint whisper calling my name.
I looked all around in panic hoping it was Prim trying to grab my attention, but no one was behind me. The sidewalks were empty, the road was quiet. Once in awhile a car would drive pass me, but that was it.
Am I losing my mind??!
I thought cautiously looking around one final time before continuing to run to Prims.-
I'm almost there!!
I exclaimed with joy in my head, barely being able to hold it down.A small smile rapidly spread across my lips and I could no longer think of anyone else besides prim.
" Caleb? Caleb!! "
A voice shouted from behind me, pulling my attention back to reality.I halted in my tracks to the sound of foot steps getting closer to me. Anxiously and impatiently, I didn't turn around, I held a keen eye on Prims road while this guy took his sweet time to walk up to me.
" Hey man... I know Kim probably told you whats going on but... "
AJ...
I thought, snapping my head to face him with a glare of anger.I was well aware of the fact he noticed the look on my face when he flinched a bit before sighing to himself.
" She didn't tell me anything, but she did come home crying, and now I know why. "
I snarled at him, turning around so my whole body faced his." Sh-she was crying...? I- well please believe me when I say I didn't mean to hurt her. I want to be her friend like the past 15 years of our lives, I just... Love someone else- "
" Cut the crap AJ, I'm tired of people taking advantage of her kindness. She gave you her everything, and it obviously wasn't enough for you so why'd you lead her on?! "
I stomped closer to him, pressing my index finger on his chest while glaring into his tinted brown eyes.He went silent for a second, trying to collect his thoughts.
Tch. I'll give him a piece of my mind." Caleb... Can I please see Kimberly again. I just... I cant lose the friendship we- "
" Are you blind or something?! She doesn't see you as a friend, she never has!! "
We both became still quiet statues, staring into each others eyes. Pain and sorrow began to swell up into small tears in AJ's eyes as his jaw slowly dropped.
" Sh-she didn't think I was her friend..? "
I rubbed my temples with a small sigh before glancing down to his clenched fists.
" No... She saw you as a partner. "
I paused letting it si k into AJ's skin," I mean she loved the time you guys spent together, she cared for you, looked out for you, and you did the same for her... She truly loved you. "
I finalized before turning back around, and running off to Prims house, leaving AJ there, alone.
Why was he even on this side of town... He's on the other side and so is Hazel...
I thought to myself, making my way up Prims driveway and to the front door.-
<< POV Kimberly >>
" H-hey, Caleb... "
I called out for my brother as I laid in my bed.My voice was crackly and shaky, my head was hot and my eyes were tired, red and swollen from crying.
" Caleb..? "
I called again, realizing he wasn't responding.
