Anything Could Happen

Ch. 22- Forgive and Forget

I blinked several times before I could find out what I was doing and where I was. 

I was in a comfy position with my long legs curled up in a ball, and my arms lay on my pillow like a touch down goal.

I didn't know how that was a comfy position.... you ask. But I did find out I was on my bed before yawning a million times. 

Alright! I found out I was sleeping on my bed with my dress from last night. I tried to fit the puzzle pieces together.

Last night. Last night. Last night was miserable. Last night was like watching a horror film before falling asleep. Last night was treacherous. Most of all... LAST NIGHT WAS A HUGE DISASTER. 

I just lay in my bed with that comfy position and started thinking about everything that goes on. Everything that happens to me. I kept thinking of what happened last night with me walking in on Brandon and Mackenzie kissing. Why? I trusted him! Those pictures Brook took of me and my ruined  makeup would be published all over the place by now. How Mackenzie even find out to wear the same dress as me? Did he even  have the nerve to care for me? Well I sure didn't care for him anymore. I remembered we USED to hang out at the park sometimes and he always brought either grapes or cherries. We would have a contest to see whether or not I could throw it in his mouth and he would catch it or not. Well I won't be doing that fun method anymore. Will I? All the moments and lunches we shared at the school cafeteria swam down the freaking drain. Better yet, down  the old, raggedy, gutter. UGH!

 And what about Allyssa? She's not better than Brandon either. She betrayed me. That little devil is becoming like Mackenzie. I know Mackenzie's level is high of stardom and popularity, but when did Allyssa start to NOT tell me her secrets anymore? We have  shared all of our secrets together and this is what I get? We have been best friends since the exact same date that I've remembered for about 5 or 6 years! And she has the nerve to do this to me? I remember how, when, where, and why we first met. Backed up in my head this is the date.... "March 15, 2013 on a Friday afternoon at 2:51 PM in 6th grade on a bright and sunny school day. I wanted a best friend for a long time, but never really happened. Yes, I had close friends, but not best friends. I met Allyssa and we started to hang out when I invited her to my Birthday Sleepover. Since then, we have became best friends. Mackenzie used to be my best friend, but she would always bring me down and tell me what to do like I was her maid or her slave. Allyssa also had fell for that trick... but now Mackenzie only has Brooke as a friend. Nobody really likes her anymore. Some of the guys have a dream date to go out with her, but the rest of them pick on her. I remembered everything. From how everything started to soon be ended. How I became Allyssa's best friend and saving her from Mackenzie because I didn't want her to go through what I had been through. But, now, as I look back, I should've let her drown in her own tears like I have. But... I wouldn't do that. I wouldn't do that in a million years. Why? Because I have a heart. And inside my heart, deep down inside, I still care for my best friend. No matter if she's my EX best friend or just my best friend. I would love her no matter what. That reminds me o what my mom always told me. My mother always told me: "Forgive and Forget." I followed those rules ever since I was a kid. Time to follow them now. 

And Brandon. Let's go back to his story now. I think what he did... I wouldn't forgive. He kissed me on my date while I was in a puddle of my own tears watching Brooke take pictures of me, being embarrassed as ever, and watching, waiting, and screaming for the 2nd time in a row that day with Brandon and Mackenzie having some romance fit together. They enjoyed. Yet, that was our first date. And those 3 ruined it. Brandon, Brooke, Mackenzie! I should've known what it meant when Mackenzie drove in her car, splashing mud all over me and my priceless dress, and said... "See ya later." How could she have planned this idea? It was brilliant, but I was furious. Is this what hell of a lot of people wanted to happen? Nobody evens knows me and Brandon go out. The only time we act as a couple would be at the park, or at the school cafeteria which would be very rare. Now, we could act like strangers if all I cared about! 

Forgive and Forget is something you do when you care. But, I don't. I have the decency to care for my best friend. Not my EX boyfriend who cheated on me on my very first date. And... I know he was hot as hell, but nothing could make up for that. And when I mean something, it has to be true.
