Choices

Charlie dont lie

The next day we were allowed to spend the day as we wished and Charlie and I decided to go scuba diving . we booked our stuff and made our way to the boats . Charlie stayed quiet the whole time and quickly jumped into the waters and disappeared under the waves. I sighed and followed him inside the water .

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The camp was arranged in an array of different colors . I looked around the whole camp in excitement . " 4th of July celebrations , " Charlie said from behind and made his way to the tents . something was really bugging this guy . it took only seconds and Charlie walked out in a pair of red shorts and a white t shirt . " What's gotten into you huh ? " I asked giving him a small shoulder nudge and went inside for my turn to change . after a quick change I walked out to see Charlie sitting on a log all by himself .

I felt really sorry for him so I went and took a seat next to him . "what's wrong? " I asked softly . Charlie just stared at the ocean and after what seemed like forever he turned to face me . "you know I'll never lie to you , right Steph ? " He asked . I looked back at him blankly , " You never lie , your not like Logan or Aubrey ! " I said . Charlie sighed , " Its about Logan though , " He said . I just sat there waiting for it to come , maybe he has a crush on Logan .

" Have you ever noticed the way he looks at you ? " He asked .

I snorted , " Yea , with disgust ! " I said kicking the sand .

Charlie shook his head , " No Steph , look closer " he said and pointed to where Logan sat . he was with Aubrey and I had that instant feeling where I wanted to punch her in the face . Logan was listening to what she was saying and he happened to take a glance at our direction , his eyes rested on mine and lingered there . I quickly turned away trying to hide my crimson face , I can't have feelings for Logan ! I turned to face Charlie , " You know he's desperate for you , don't you ? " He said . I shook my head , " No Charlie he's not , if he is why can't he just tell me or just stop all this bullying ! " I said .

"You remember the time when we went to candy planet together ? " He asked .

I nodded .

"Remember that moment when young Logan brought the same gummy beans as we did just because he wanted to make us happy ? "

"But Logan likes gummy bears , " I said .

"Yea Logan didn't want to hurt us so he brought the beans , it was you who pointed out that he doesn't like them . " Charlie said .

I rolled my eyes , " So what does that have to do with this ? " I asked .

"Steph don't you see it ? he's unable to express himself properly . Though he's the school playboy he still doesn't want to loose you . I can see it in his eyes . " Charlie said .

I turned to the direction where Logan and Aubrey sat, they were kissing . suddenly anger surged my veins . I turned to face Charlie , " I dunno Charlie but maybe you should quit making us a couple coz that will never happen ! " I said and stomped off to the tent and zipped it shut behind me .
