Hello again! Well I actually made a second chapter! I have still put it in Chloe's POV because I am trying to nail Cara's character without it being too...everything. But don't worry some chapters will be in other characters POV. Maybe to make this book different from others I won't put Cara's POV at all or maybe for short periods of time, but because this story revolves more around Chloe than any other character, this story will mostly be in her POV. Now enough with this stuff, on with the story!
**~\(>u<)/~**
Chloe's POV
The next day came like any other and I sat at my desk writing the assignment given, I looked over to Cara and saw her head in her hands as if stressed over something.
"Um, Cara is something wrong?" I question with concern written all over my face
"Hm? Oh yeah, yeah I'm fine just trying to figure out what to write." she said. It was obvious that it was not the case, but I decided to let it be for it was not something I should talk about.
"If you say so, but if you need to get something off your back we're here for you." I gave a reassuring smile. She returned the gesture and I went back to work.
Just like yesterday my big group of friends met during recesses and we talked about what we usually would: dirty jokes, how life is, weirdness and just being weird in general. We laughed and talked like good friends do.
Once again, like the day prior, it ended and a new day started. I sat down at my desk and began doing what the teacher told us to. Soon everyone was done and had nothing to do and the room became progressively louder with chatter between the groups. Soon becoming bored of just sitting there Cara started a conversation with me.
"So, how's life?" she asked
"It's good, I was just thinking." I said
"What are you thinking about?"
"Why you're shorter than me." I stated bluntly
"Hey! That's not nice you Butt!" she raised her voice to the slightest
"But it's true!" I said trying to defend my statement
"I'm not short."
"Fine, you're not short. You are just...um vertically challenged?" it came out more of a question then a statement but the look on her face was more offended then before.
"THAT MEANS THE SAME THING BUTT!" she said her voice staying the same level
"Well I'm sorry but...you have to admit it's true."
"You know what? Your name is going to be Butt now."
"W-what?! Look, I'm sorry!"
"No too late Butt." And with that I admitted defeat
Soon after our small friendly argument, it was recess. I saw Karina get out of her seat and walk over to me so we could leave. Once Karina got to my group Cara got up and used my new nickname in front of Karina.
"See you outside butt." She flashed a sarcastic smile and went after Karen and Jessie
"What's with the nickname?" Karina questioned with a puzzled look. I explained what happened during class to her as we walked though the school and she started laughing her ass off, "Well she has the right to call you Butt if you insulted her like that!" she laughed out the words
"Well she was the one who asked what I was thinking, so I answered her." I said with a confused expression to why Karina was laughing, "Why are you laughing? It is true no?" She laughed even harder after that.
"It may be true but it's not nice to tell someone that they are short! God, sometimes you can be smart but sometimes you can just be plain clueless."
"Oh shut up, I may be clueless but I'm still more mature then you!" I said sticking my tongue out at her.
"Well if you're so mature, then why the heck are you sticking out your tongue?" she smirked
"Whatever." I said before we reached the doors to get outside.
Days, even weeks went on from that day and there was not a day where I was not called "Butt". Though, I just got used to the name and it just seemed normal now. Before I knew it, it has been a month since the new seating arrangement and it has been a month since I got used to talking with Cara and the rest of the group. I've grown to love her as a really good friend, we just seemed happier.
One day I was really not in the mood for school, and was very quiet the whole day and to make things worse it was raining. Honestly 'April showers bringing May flowers' was a lie, no flowers really bloom until June. This made my mood even worse. We had to stay inside all recess. Cara soon noticed my horrible mood and looked at me with sympathy.
"Are you okay?" she asked
"Hmm." I answered. I rested my head in one of my hands and looked at her. Cara then took hold of my free hand and held it in hers. The feeling it gave me had me sitting up straight.
"Don't worry. It will get better soon." She said with a smile before walking off to Karen
My heart was beating really fast and the hand she touched felt so cold, but in a good way! It gave me a weird feeling, much more different from the friendly feelings I get from friends. Throughout the day I've been getting these funny feelings whenever I was around her but I tried to mask it as much as I could. When I got home, I tried to understand these feelings. I came to a conclusion that my "monthly" was about to arrive. So throughout the week I ignored the feelings I got and waited for the "River Nile" to flow. Soon, I realized that I already had "it" this month. With that statement in mind, these feelings grew and grew and grew.
"What are these feelings?" I questioned myself.
The next day, during some free time in class, Alex, Karina and I were talking while everyone else was socializing in their little groups. We laughed and made jokes until their came a joke about Karina being lesbian. Karina would usually laugh at this, but today something seemed different and I was about to find out.
"Uh guys?" Karina said getting our attention, our laughter died down slowly
"Karina, why aren't you laughing? You would usually laugh at things like this." Alex said with a hint of concern in her voice
"Well I don't really find it funny anymore."
"Why?"
"Karina, are you a...?" I said with some shock
"No! I'm not lesbian, well not completely." She looked at us with a small smile, "Uh well, this may be kind of weird but...I think I'm bisexual."
