Meant To Be

Chapter 5

"Are you kidding me, that's awesome!" Claire exclaimed over the phone. Claire was my other really good friend from school. We were friends since the first day of high school. She was just like me except way smarter and way prettier. She had blonde hair and blue eyes so I guess I can see why every single guy in school would want to go out with her.

"I can't believe that you guys went out on your first date, that's so adorable!" She waited for me to reply before going on. "hello?...Madeline?" I was so nervous to tell her about him trying to kiss me. I didn't even hear half of the things that she was telling me. I mean I have to tell her, it's now or never.

"Oh sorry, what?" I said coming out of my daze. "Are you alright? cause you DO NOT sound like yourself." She sounds more concerned than normal. so I had to tell her.

"Hey Claire? I need to tell you something." I only heard quiet on the other end of the line, and then she sighed, "What now?" she said mockingly because every time drama or something related to boys happens she helps me out of it. This is mostly because, I can't go up to Harry and tell him every problem about him. I was going to tell her right now. No question, but what if she got mad at me because of heart break. I have no idea what she will think, but I was going for it.

"Harry almost kissed me." I said it no restrictions. The other side was quiet like dead silent. "Hello?Claire?" Still quite... then I heard beeping. The other line went completely silent. Then I realized the other phone line died and she didn't hear a word that I just heard.

Really? Did her phone die, are you kidding me did that really just happen? So I guess that tomorrow is going to have to be the day when I tell her that he tried to kiss me.

Suddenly my phone buzzed, I saw on the screen that it was a text from Harry. "Hey Maddy, are you OK today because when we left the beach you didn't seem alright." I had no idea how to reply to him he seemed so sentimental. I loved that about him. I couldn't hurt him and tell him I didn't want him to kiss me, so I decided to lie.

Text messages:

"Yeah, I'm fine I guess I was just kind of tired when we left the beach."

"OK but just make sure that if anything is ever wrong you can tell me. <3"

"OK see you soon!"

"You too bye!"

Then I was left alone sitting in my room. With no else to talk to, Harry was gone, and Claire's phone died. I guess I just didn't feel like calling Claire back on her home phone so I tried to go to bed, but ended up awake all night thinking about what I was going to tell Claire.
