No more than friends

Her

When I'm around her I feel like nothing else matters. It's just me and her. That's what it feels like when I'm around Kassy. All I see is her all I want to look at is her. She's like the sun and I'm the Earth revolving around her. But the moon comes and my moon is Karissa. She thinks I love her and I dont I love Kassy. Kassy is my everything all I want is her. That's why I told Karissa that she can't talk to me or be around me anymore. I just can't wait for tonight so I can talk to Kassy about being together.

Kassy asked me to meet her at her locker but when I get there she's crying. Hey Kassy are you ok I ask. She wipes her tears away with her sleeve. It looks like she's been crying for an hour. Oh hey Noah, how was your day? She asks me sniffling, obviously avoiding my question. Kassy I know you better than anyone else stop avoiding my question I ask and that just makes her cry more. Oh Noah I don't know what to do anymore she says in between hiccups. How about this we go and talk in the Art room no one goes in there during this period and it's our free period we can go talk about it. That sounds like a good idea. We walk silently and slowly to the Art room and at the Pace she's going by the time we get there the period is going to be over. We finally get there in 2 minutes. It would take me 30 seconds if I was alone but my best friend is in pain and I could tell. So when we got there we sat down and didnt talk. She finally spoke up. So I broke up with Ted because I realized I liked someone else she said sniffling. Well that's good I always felt like he was controlling. I said trying to make her laugh but it didnt work. When I said I wanted to break up he yelled at me then started pushing me. He ended up hitting me after I said I couldnt take the way he acted anymore. After she said that he hit her I got a good look at her face. Her cheekbone was starting to bruise then I noticed that last summer she always had a bruise somewhere it didnt matter where. When she started dating Ted she started keeping more secrets from me I could tell. But I didnt know it would be so serious. Hold on HE HIT YOU I said starting to raise my voice Kassy you need to tell me when he hits you that's abuse you know that I know you do. You're so smart, why wouldn't you tell me or Mally we love you, we couldn't stand the sight of seeing you get hurt. I was getting ready to tell her that she needed to tell the principal when she started to explain. Noah I didnt tell you because I knew you would do something like this and I was threatened she said. Ted said that if I were to tell anyone that he was hitting me he would make sure that I would never see the sun ever again and that he can make everyone forget about me so I didnt say anything. She started crying again. I need to know more. Maybe she would see how bad this situation was and she would tell the principal. Did he say anything else I asked. Ummm...........he said if I were to break up with him and immediately get with you that I would never see you again. Kassy he's threatening other people's lives. We need to tell someone this is searouise. I know we can do it tomorrow because I think I need to tell Mally and we still wanna hang out tonight. And I know if I tell today we won't get to her she said almost crying. Fine tomorrow during lunch i'll meet you at your locker deal I said letting her get a little time. Deal she said smiling. The bell rang and we went our separate ways. On my way to class I knew that tonight I couldn't ask her out. I could tell her how I felt but I could ask her out not just for my safety but for hers too.
