Chapter 15

It was just my stupid boy of a best friend, "Char!" I screamed and hugged him.

"Damn, have you gotten stronger? Am I just getting weaker?" He chuckled, which made me laugh a little harder.

"Omg, I have missed you. I swear; don't leave me, okay?" He took a look at me and after a few Long seconds he kissed my forehead. I already knew the answer. My smile slowly turned into a frown.

"Hey, Hey, Hey, No. Let's go. You can tell me all about it." He said as he took me out of the Cafe and into the hallway to get my things, He took my shocked look and started to shove things into my bag.

"What are you doing?" I asked after minutes of looking at his back muscles to tighten and relax, Char was really hot, that's why many girls like him and even Chase... Chase, I haven't talked to him after the kiss. My heart ached for him but I haven't seen him nor Carter and the rest of the gang. Who I grew to love and care for. They become my family. People who I'll probably lose...

"Icecream Parlor remember where I took you when you had... panic attacks." Char knew everything that happened. First, it wasn't eating, talking, Next screaming, yelling at night and Ryker came in and had to sleep in my room or I'll sleep in his, that never worked, Then came the panic attacks, I saw Dad everywhere I used to love and held dear to me. I was a mess.

I only stood there when Char slammed my Locker and took my wrist. Trying to keep up with Char and where he was going, I looked over my right shoulder seeing a pissed off Lexi, and over my left... Time went slow when I saw a very pissed off Chase.

Why was Chase pissed off?

We arrived at the Ice Cream Parlor near the sea wall, we both got ice cream cones, I got Chocolate chips and he got Vanilla. We walked along the Sand and I looked out to the Ocean. I was so taken away by the sound of the waves. Char stopped and took out his camera and snapped a shoot. I looked at him then the wind hit. I moved my hair out of my face, he took one more then he walked over to me. "I took these to keep as a memory." He smiled and I froze. He looked down at me and slowly leaned in next to my ear.

"Chase would kill me if I kissed what is his," with that he kissed my dimple and backed up. I just stood there and looked down at the sand with my sandals in my hand.

"Charlie.. I like you as a brother, I used to like you like that back in grade school. I'm sorry," I said as I kissed him on the cheek. He shook his head and laughed, I wasn't ready for that.

"You're cute, and beautiful, I liked you as well. But I realized that I loved you as a little sister for years. I found out that Chase asked you every day about you. I knew I shouldn't tell you because it isn't my business; but he fell in love with you when y'all were just kid's Ryker and the gang knew that and never said anything. He doesn't date girls. He just brings them to us. Ryker and Chase never mess with them... So all the rumors about him doing dirty with them... are false." With that I was nearly in tears seeing that I missed the full picture of Chase.. I thought he did it because that's what bad boys do right?

As the sun was setting Charlie took more pictures and I took some of his photos, "I never thought you were so photogenic," I said as we started heading back to the car.

He looked at me,"There is a lot more than what meets the eye sugar-pea. You know me as a person, you know me as a best friend and a brother... but what I do isn't what I want you to see. I care that much. I know everything about you not in a creepy way. I know you can aim and fight... but I know you wouldn't kill anyone in cold blood..." He started the car and headed back.

I looked at him and looked at the moving trees, "You're right. I haven't. I want to, I'll prove you wrong one way or another." After the ice cream rush and a little photo shoot, I told Char to take me back since I wanted to talk to Chase and to get my car. Char nodded and told me he'll be at the house.

It was too late to talk to my teachers so I looked around to see my car... and Chase's? At this time of night? I walked up to the School until I heard my name being said. Before I walked into the school, I slowly changed directions to the football field.

"What the Hell! Why would you care about anyone! You only care about your fucking self!" Chase's voice met my ears, why was he yelling more importantly who was he yelling at? I hate yelling.

"But I like you." I peeked behind the football field and I regret it. Lexi was kissing Chase. Chase... Chase wasn't doing anything. I gasped. Chase looked up, Lexi turned and smiled. I walked backward holding both of their glares. I shook my head and forced back the tears. I failed. My heart broke into millions of pieces again. By the same person! I let it out and I turned and ran to my car, I heard swearing as my name was being called, later running. I made it to my car, started the engine up, not caring for a seat belt. I reversed out and sped out of the parking lot.

Telling myself not to look back. Then looking in my Rearview mirror I saw Chase's mouth saying curse words like a sailor, and kicking the air, then running to his car.

I turned the corner on my street, pulling in seeing Charlie's car already there. Turning my car off and I ran inside, opening my door, "Hey, Lil how-" I slammed the door Char came and said a river of cuss words. He froze when he saw me.

"What the Hell happened to you?!" I cried more and ran upstairs.

"If the doorbell rings or opens don't let him in." Char was up two steps before the sound of the doorbell and the banging of the door sounded through the house. I froze and then I ran up the stairs, tried not to trip over most of the stairs and sprinted into my room slamming my door.
