My Step Brother's Obsession - Carly #2

Bad break up

Carly

The time has finally come. I leave today after two years of being here. I'm off to uni in October to continue my way into becoming a counselor. I hope by the end of my time at uni I will be fully trained to become a counselor. I may or may not stay at the camp, but I want to help children who have issues with bullying and any other growing up issues. I know I won't be attending camp for the first year, but I will be there for the holidays which mom and dad aren't too keen on, but I want to make sure I am ready for the following year and make sure I don't forget anything that I have learned over the past two years.

Kaden has been acting kind of strange since he began college. I'm not sure what he's battling with, but its weird Charlie has been quiet and reserved around all of us. He acts kinda weird around Kaden. I have no idea what's going on between those two, but I'm sure they'll sort it out eventually. Aidan has been quiet over the last month, and I'm not even sure why. It's like he's distancing himself away from me, and it hurts, especially after he had made a big scene two years ago when he told me that he loved me, and he was sorry for what he had said. I thought we would be together forever, but I guess what has been going on over the last month made me realize that my perfect bubble was about to burst.

As Aidan approached me I knew something bad was about to happen. "Can we talk, Calry?"

"Sure."

He gulped. "There's no easy way to say this, Carly, but over the past few months we've been growing apart."

"No shit, what's even got into you, Aidan?"

"There's no easy way to say this Carly, but I think it's time."

"Time for what, Aidan? You're making no scene."

"I think you know exactly what I mean."

"No I don't."

"I think we should break up. I mean you're going off to uni, and I'm here. It won't work."

"That's bullshit and you know it. I've been at camp four days a week, and we've made it work."

"Barley."

"What the hell is that supposed to mean? Barley." I said sarcastically. Pulling myself up off the bench, staring at him. "I thought we were going to uni together?"

"I'm not going, Carly?"

"What? But we planned it all."

"That was a year ago Carly, things change. After I'm done here, I'm taking a gap year. I don't even know if I'm ever going to go. I don't think I'll ever be cut out for uni. I need to find myself and find out who I really am."

"And you can't do that with me by your side in your way, right?"

"I didn't say that, Carly."

"Whatever."

"Please, Calry, try and understand."

"Oh, I understand alright. The only guy I ever loved and understood me is dumping me because I'm a fucking hindrance like I am to everyone around me. Just do what the hell you've got to do and leave me the hell alone." I walk past him, and he grabs my arm and pulls me to him. "I don't see you as a hindrance, Carly. I just need to do this I thought you would understand."

"Oh, I understand perfectly. You don't want me around because I'm too much of an embarrassment to you. Well, guess what, Aidan, I don't fucking care and I don't fucking care about you!"

"Don't say that, Carly. I love you."

"No you don't, not anymore. I should've realized that a month ago when you began acting weird around me. Let me go, Aidan, live your perfect fucking life without me!"
