No Going Back

New Friend

I woke up early to go on my morning jog. Got on my Nike shorts and tank top on, and put in a messy ponytail, grabbed my phone and ran out the door. Carful not to wake up anyone in the house. While I was sprinting up the hill, I turned to change the song on my phone, and rammed in to Charlie Stevens. Charlie, being a football player rammed pretty hard into me, so hard that I fell on the concrete. " I'm so sorry I didn't see you there are you ok?" Charlie asked. " I'm fine, I think." He reached out his hand so I could grab it, but my arm wouldn't move. " Oh my gosh I broke your arm, crap. " said Charlie. The only thing that was going through my head right now, was what my dad would think of this. I had Charlie dial my dad up to tell him where I was and what happened. Just then Charlie asked me my name and it made me realize I knew him, because Jean has told me all about how she use to date him and still had a little crush on him. But Charlie doesn't know me. "I'm Bree." I said. "I'm Charlie" Charlie said. " Oh right your Jeans friend" Charlie said. "Yep that's me." I said. Just as Charlie was picking me up from the concrete, my dad showed up. "Finally." I said. Charlie set me down in the car and scooted in. I was kind of hoping he wouldn't come but I figured since he was the one who broke my arm he would come. Julia was in the car too. I introduced Charlie to my dad and Julia even though the only thing I knew about him was that his name is Charlie and he played football. Knowing my dad he left Zach at home so on the way to the hospital dad dropped Julia off so she could stay and watch over Zach till we got back. I shot Jean a text telling her I wouldn't be able to walk this morning because of the accident. She sent me a get well soon emoji. My dad waited outside of the room while Charlie went in with me to get my cast. I picked the color baby blue and had Charlie sign it first. He wrote is number down, so I took a sharpie and wrote it on his arm in large letters. We laughed and headed out the door. Dad ran by our houses so we could grab our backpacks. When we got to the school we were 2 hours late, so we parted our ways. The whole day I had Trinity and Jean help me write in my classes since I broke my Right arm and I'm right handed. By lunch my cast was full of names and numbers. Sadly I only saw a couple of guys write their numbers down, but I'll take what I can get. I was sitting alone with Trinity when Charlie came up to sit next to us. "So how's the arm?" said Charlie. "Um it's only been an hour dummy." I said. " Oh so now I'm a dummy!" said Charlie. " Yes you are." I said proudly. " Text me later." I said as the bell rang to Charlie. Trinity started singing K.I.S.S.I... before I cut her off to tell her I already have a boyfriend and that Charlie was just a really awesome guy friend.
