Recap:

So basically Skittery loves Ally/Carter..

Ally/Carter has mixed feelings on the whole situation.

When he kisses her she walks away trying to figure everything out.

______________________________________________________________________

I walk out into the blazing hot sun.

What are my feeling for Skittery? I'm already certain I think of him as a friend... but do I think of him as more?

I kick the debris and rubble abandoned on the brown dirt road. My hands tucked away in my pockets and my cap pulled over my eyes. I looked down acknowledging the little flakes of red dust collecting at my feet as I trudged along, until I run into a stone hard back.

I toppled over the figure, my cap almost jumping off my head... Almost.

"I-I'm sorry", I stutter, looking at the figure below me. My cheeks turning beet red. His icy blue eyes locked on mine and his golden hair was laying at the sides of his face. His arms seemed almost pinned down to his sides as his heavy breathes filled the air.

"Yeah, yeah Girly... Just don't do it again.", Spot spat, brushing himself off as we got up.

I look at him confused, "Why is everyone calling me girly?" I give him an annoyed glare, crossing my arms.

I secretly hoped no one knew I was a girl.... But Girly? Seriously?

"You look like a girl Carter, have you ever noticed?", he said putting his cap back on. He looks like he has brown hair but, its golden. It's a beautiful golden, like the color of wheat.

"Aye, uh, Girly... Wasn't your hair brown last time I checked.", Spot began to say as he tried to take off my cap.

I gave his hand a hard smack whilst his hand retreated back to his side. I repositioned my cap and gave a small nod for emphasis.

What am I going to do?! I cant just act like my hair was always blond?! Think Ally... think.

"So how are you and Rose?", I asked hesitantly. My voice and arms shaking a little. I try to swallow my jealousy as I pretend to look interested. My head was cocked to the right and my face showed a full blown smile. Of course this is all fake...

"Oh Rose, I've been thinking about making her my queen of Brooklyn if you know what I mean...", Spot smirked, his eyebrow raised as he nudged my shoulder.

Ow. Whats that searing pain in my chest? Oh yeah, heartbreak and disgust. But why feel that way for "the Spot Conlon's"? All he's done is hurt me and stab me in the back.

All I know is that I made up my mind. My heart doesn't yearn for Skittery, it yearns for someone else. It could be Spot or Mush or Jack for all I care, I just don't like Skittery in that way...

I think....
