High School Survivor

Chapter 11: Ally, I have a thing for overalls

Kate pov.

I was invited to go to Marks house for the first ever high school party of the year! I was so excited Liam was going to be there, yeah we have a complicated relationship. Kind of like the ones were you've known them your whole life.

They're your best friend and live next door to you but you secretly have a huge crush on them and every second with them is torture because you just want to smash your lips on theirs, yea that's me.

My parents love his parents they've been friends seens Liam and I were kids. So this just made it even harder for me, our friendship started years ago but my crush on him happened about 2 years back. At least that's when I realized I loved him.

I always loved him but I thought it was in a best friend way but, I knew that wasn't right. When we were younger we would have sleep overs and thought nothing of it, laying in the same bed watching movies.

We still have little sleepovers but for me its different, we have little Friday night movie nights but of course I have to sit on the floor with the door wide open to remind myself he is my friend and that's it.

My parents are a bit strict with me but honestly they don't seem to care what I do. I think that's why I'm such a free spirit now but honestly my parents just don't like me. They don't think I have a stable life ahead of me which I do!

I'm volunteering at the local animal shelter to become a veterinarian but, because Liam is preparing to be a accounting which apparently to my parents is 'a professional job' they don't care for my career.

Makes sense for them though, My mom is a military tech worker and my dad is a full time lawyer. They barely talked to me so how they think they know me I will never know. My brother on the other hand is a 11th grade regional football player, if you couldn't tell my parents kinda like him better.

Back to the Liam subject, The only person I've ever told about my crush was Marissa, I was going to tell him how I felt about him but I found out some pretty shocking news a few days before I was going to confront him.

///(Flash Back)///

I knocked on his door that day and he didn't answer I knew he was there so I decided to just walk in. I knew where the key was and this was like my 2nd home. I walked into his house and up to his room tip toeing hoping to scare him.

When I walked in his room I caught him and Abby Brown making out, they were literally 5 seconds away from having sex. They separated quickly and all I could do was stand there, it was my fault for just walking in but I was still mad at him. When I finally mustard up some courage I ran out the room in tears, I don't think he saw them though.

We never talked about it and after that I couldn't tell him how I felt, even though all I wanted was him to be mine with his cute chubby cheeks and hipnotic brown eyes. I'm not sure if he knows I like him or even if he likes me, But maybe I could change that today at this party or at least sometime this year.

I was sitting in the living room watching Spongebob when my dad came in the room.

"Katherine Packlen why are you dressed like that?" My dad says in a unapproved tone. 

"I'm going to that party tonight remember, you agreed to let me go as long as Liam was coming and he is." I said dryly trying to explain myself. 

I really wasn't dressed that bad, I was wearing a simple little purple dress with black ruffles at the ends and black heels. My red cherry blonde light hair was pinned up with curls and I wore light makeup with little mascara over my emerald green eyes.
