"That's in the past." (35)

"It's about me and this person. She used to be my best friend... Lacy." She began.

I nodded slightly for her to continue.

"We met in middle school, I think we didn't like each other at first. She was like the princess of the class... everyone was running after her, boys and girls, while I couldn't care less..."

I laughed.
This doesn't surprise me... Bella is definitely not a conformist, she doesn't follows stereotypes.

"We became friends because of a sleepover someone from class planned.
The others fell asleep, Lacy and I were the only one that stayed awake... so we started talking all night long..."

Hmm...

"I found out we had a lot in common, we kinda shared similar traits and similiar experiences." Bella sighed slowly.

She rested more comfortably on my thigh as she started to talk again.
"We kinda ignored each other again for some time. One day, to my surprise, she invited me to her house, from that moment on we became besties."
She smiled slightly now.

"I had never had this kinda of friendship,
we told each other everything, we shared everything, we were really connected. Then something happened..."

I feel the tension crossing our breath.
This is starting to get interesting... but I really don't know how to react if what I think it happened, really happened...

"She and I attended the same class in high school and during senior year I started dating a boy... nothing serious, we just hanged out." She breathed out.
"But I have never ended my friendship with her because of him."
Bella looked right into my eyes, I felt her tension coming through her voice.

"One night she stayed over at my house, it had happened a lot of times but... at a certain point of that night..." She paused.

Oh, this is it...
My heart is pounding and I don't know why...

"She kissed me. I was so stunned that she ran away. She left my house in the middle of the night..." Bella let out a tense sigh.

"She didn't attend school for three days.
I was becoming nervous, we still hadn't talk about what happened... I went to her house, but she won't let me in, so I stayed until she did..."

So she waited... that means she really cared...

"She told me she started to feel something for me once she felt jealous of the boy I was dating, but she didn't want to ruin our friendship."
Bella lowered her voice like she was guilty of something.

"And what did you say to her?" I dared to ask. My voice couldn't conceail a veil of concern.

Bella smiled slightly, but a moment later she returned to have that serious, intense expression.
"That our relationship wouldn't be ruined because... I had also realized that I had fallen in love with her..."

I nodded slightly.

"From that day, we started dating." She affirmed .

I looked in the direction of the waterfall, feeling my stomach suddenly twisting for no real reason. Or maybe it was jealousy...

Bella gently squeezed my hand as she paused her story.

"Continue..." I said, smiling again.

"My 19th birthday had arrived, we had been together for a year or so..." She whispered.
"From that day, I slowly realized that it was no longer what I wanted." She swallowed with difficulty.
