Chapter 30

The week passed by in a blur.

I spent a lot of my time either at Devons apartment or the doctors office. The brace was to come off in a week to be replace with a smaller one I could do physio with. I was really looking forward to wasting my summer at physio.

Note the sarcasm.

In all honesty, I could feel myself falling for Devon even harder every minute that passed. It didn't help that he was being so understanding about my leg. It's not that I didn't want to be with him- it's just that my heart just finished mending and he had the power to break it all over again. Try explaining that to my three best friends. I was currently sat with them- Summer, Carly and Evie- waiting for the others to arrive so we could start our Friday-night sleepover traditions.

"You need to take risks, Kayla! You can't just sit around waiting for something to happen!" I exhaled, my breath fanning over my face.

"You can't just say that, Carly. You don't know what it's like-"

"Kayla." She said softly. "You need to stop that. You're not the only one who's ever had boy problems! Remember Evie in grade ten? Or Summer the summer after grade nine? What about Andria and her constant break ups? What about Charelle, single? What about me last year?"

"I-" I paused. She was right. I was sitting here moping while they've all experiences this or worse. "I guess you're right. But what if I don't end up like you and Mason- what if I end up like Ev and-" Evie glared at me. "He who shall not be named? What if I end up like Will and I?" I cringed.

"That's the thing though Kayla. You need to stop worrying. If you don't stop thinking about what could happen, nothing will happen. Plus, you never told us what went down on Monday with Will!" Evie nodded, agreeing.

"Oh god." I rubbed my temples. Where to begin? "At the beginning, it was just kind of the same old 'I love you I want you back we're meant to be blah blah blah' but then he kind of changed his course. He- he asked to stay friends, at least. He said he needed to be some part of my life, even if he couldn't date me." He was actually so sweet back there. "And- um- you're not going to like this but- he kissed me."

"WHAT? I'm going to kill him!" Evie raged.

"It wasn't against my will." I cut her off.

"Say what?" Carly asked dubiously.

"He said he needed one last kiss, for closure, and to be honest I needed it too."

"Are you sure he didn't pressure you?" Evie pestered. I laughed.

"Yes Evie, I'm sure. I'm kind of glad we did." I said wistfully. "I was so confused, whether there were still feelings between us."

"And?" Summer asked eagerly.

"Nope." I smiled. "Nothing. I mean, sure it felt nice, but that's it really. He disagreed, but agreed to stay friends with me. Said he couldn't bear to lose me." That was the point where I almost crumbled, but I held my ground. Then I made some excuse and got the hell out of there.

"You agreed to be friends? Why? That's like saying 'The dog died, but we can keep it!'" Summer said. I had to laugh at that one.

"Summer, he broke my heart, but sometimes that's a good thing. Personal development and such."
