Chapter 1 Yeah, Like That's Gonna Happen

Tears welled up in my eyes, and I pulled the towel tighter around me, feeling that it would be the only thing that could comfort me.

I had to put on a strong front though, if not for me then for Caden. God, I'm sucha horrible person! I want him to chose me over his band. How cruel am I? Sometimes, I just hate myself.

I really hate this power he has over me sometimes. It's just like he could snap his fingers and say, "Go jump off that cliff for me, my love." and I'd do it because he called me 'love'. It'd be so much easier if I had feelings for someone else. Besides, God knows, and pretty much everyone knows, how hard life is if you're in love with someone who's your best friend. Especially if you just found out that he's moving to California to get a record deal. California. Hollywood. Do you know how many hot girls live there? Wow, now I sound like a jealous girlfriend. Which I'm NOT! Whatever. I don't need him. Yes, I do. Wait, no I DON'T! I'm my OWN person! Even without him! Please, I couldn't pee without Caden in my life. What would I do when he was gone?

"W-w-when do you l-l-leave?" I stuttered. I was going to put on a strong front for him, but it was obvious that that was out the door now. At least I got the sound of tears out of my voice.

I  heard him sigh. "In 2 months."

I almost broke down just hearing it. It couldn't be true. He's a hometown type of guy. You know, the one that never leaves the place he was born? I'm going to be helpful with this, so he'll realize just how much he'll miss me.

"You wanna come over now?" I ask him. I try to sound excited. "I could help you with your set list?"

I hear him chuckle softly. "Are you sure you're okay?"

I blink a little and answer, "Please. I survived the first 4 years of my life without you, you know."

"I'll be there in 5."

I was shaken out of a daydream-one where we're at the airport but Caden decides not to leave and then professes his undying love for me right on the spot and then I jump into his arms and we kiss-when the doorbell rings.

I jump up and race down the stairs and open the door to reveal a shocked Caden.

I basically live alone. My parents died when I was 7 in a car crash and my brother, who takes care of me (His name is Mike and he's 30) works alot overseas so I'm alone mostly.

I crash into Caden, giving him a bear hug and inhaling his Caden-y smell. He always smells like burgers. To be truthful, it's very comforting.

I pull back and look at his still shocked face. My smile falters. "What's wrong?" I ask.

He clears his throat and starts to look  uncomfortable as he blushes and his ears go as red as a tomato. "Um, you're wearing a, um, towel."

I quickly look down to discover that I am, in fact, wearing a towel. "Oh." I say.

I race up stairs, blushing like mad and run into my closet and slam its door closed. I hear Caden come into my room and sit down on my bed.

"I'll be out in a minute!" I call, quickly scrambling through the closet trying to find a great outfit to wear.

I decide on a pair of Caden's old plaid boxers and a cookie monster T-shirt.

I waltz out and see Caden chuckle at my appearance. "Nice boxers."

I grin slyly at him. I walk over to my radio and turn it on. The song I Will Always Love You by Dolly Parton comes on and I'm forced to roll my eyes at the irony.

I turn to walk to the bed when I bump into something hard. I blink and look up. Oh. Those were his abs. They feel nice...

He holds his hand out for me to take. "Wanna dance?" He asks me.

I blush, but grab his hand and put my other hand on his shoulder while he puts his on my waist. I blush and burry my face into his shoulder  so he doesn't see how nervous I am that we are this close. I try to calm my beating heart by focusing on the lyrics.

"And I, I, will always love you, ooh I, will always, love you..."

Adn with that, the song ends, leaving me to quickly jump away from Caden and shut the radio off and I look to see that he's pouting.

"We need to focus," I remind him.

We sit down on my bed, going over a list of songs that his band has all written and performed especially for me.

So far, we only had 9 songs, and we needed only one more.

"Umm..." I think, then it hits me. "You should do I Wish You Knew!" I squeal.

He gives me a confused look, so I explain, "It's a song I wrote. It'll be a real crowd-pleaser." I promise.

"Jen, I can't take your song." He says quietly.

"Why not?"

"Because."

"Because why?"

No answer.

"Fine then. You leave me no choice."

I suddenly roll him over on the bed and jump on top of him, and blush a little. I start to tickle him and he keep giggling like a school girl, as I laugh at his giggles.

I suddenly stop and realize how close we are.

And my breathing speeds up~
