Loving You To Death (ON HOLD)

Chapter Five

Chapter Five

So I have decided to walk home instead of calling my mum for a ride. I mean just because it was a warm day and I didn’t want that to go to waste plus I lived only 20 minutes walk away. I got to admit I miss California, my friends, and all the memories it held. I walked past a nearly empty park and stopped. I glanced towards the swings, as a kid it was always my favourite part of the park. Maybe just 5 minutes on the swings won’t make a difference walking home. Slowly I made my way to the swings; I was the only one there so I picked the middle swing and sat down on it.

Everything about California came back into my mind. Bliss, she was my best friend, we did everything together. And we have been through a lot, like family issues, holidays, hospital visits and more but mostly we were always there for each other, no matter what. We were like sisters. Matt, he is my ex boyfriend and he is an ex for a reason. My brother Damon thought Matt was cheating on me so he beat him up. Damon thought that well because he knew Matt really well, they were best friends. So after that, Matt and I were going strong but him and Damon...not so much.

We were fine until I found out that Matt reallywas cheating on me and it was with Bliss, yes as in my best friend Bliss. I will never forget the feeling I had when I walked into Bliss’ room and saw my best friend and my boyfriend in bed, naked. And to top it all off, they were moaning and very loudly too. At that moment I had felt like I had lost everything that mattered in my life-my best friend and my boyfriend. Looking back now it seems that I missed all the signs that Bliss was interested in Matt.

Whenever Bliss and I were together, she would ask how I and Matt were doing, if we were okay and just how he is in general. I’m surprised she didn’t know how he was, since you know, they were fucking behind my back. The moment I walked in on them, I felt betrayed because of what Bliss had done. Unwanted because I now knew that Matt wanted Bliss and not me. But I guess that does make sense since he was Mr popular and I was just...well me. Because Matt was popular and had a reputation to uphold, he just had to go and fuck some girl to keep up his status. But unlucky for me, ‘some girl’ happened to be my best friend. Back to reality, I guess. Now I was barely swinging, just sitting, thinking.

I heard footsteps behind me but figured I was just hearing things, until...

“Madison Ava Roberts, sister of Damon Nate Roberts and daughter to Rose and Scott Roberts” by this time I was off the swing and turned to see the same guy as I had seem today, the one with the amazing brown eyes. Must be Carter. I was speechless at the moment so I just continued to listen.

“17 years of age, good girl stereotype, just moved from California and last but certainly not least...Status-single” he stopped there. I glared at this interesting boy in total and complete shock. One question ran through my mind-how the hell did he know so much about me? I finally found the right words to say but first I just wanted to stare at him...just for a while. His black hair was still perfectly spiked from earlier today. His brown eyes sparkled. He stared deep into my eyes and of course, I stared back.

“You can stop staring now...please do” Carter broke the silence.

“Are you stalking me?” I blurted out.

“You wish” He smirked. Who does he think he is?

“Okay so you’ve done your homework on me” I said, although it came out as more of a statement than a question. But just as Cater was about to reply, I started.

“Carter Andrew Wilson, 18 years of age” Okay, I gotta admit the age part was a guess.

“Bad boy stereotype, um you smoke, drink and you’re very ignorant” at the moment, I was just stealing Natasha’s exact words.

“You also don’t care about anyone but yourself, oh and you’re one hell of a player” I finished off with a sweet smile and relaxed back into the swing while Carter took the one to my right.

“It seems we have both done our homework then. Except you got all the bad things about me”

“There are good things?” I fake gasped.

“Ha-ha” he answered looking down slightly.

“Carter, what are you doing here?” I couldn’t help but ask; hey I’m a very curious person.

“Well Maddy, it does happen to be a public park” he replies sarcastically.

“I meant what are you doing over here, at the swings, with me” that was a better way to ask the question.

“And hey! That’s Madison to you” I said, only just realising that he called me Maddy.

“Wow, you’re slow” I heard him mutter. I chose to ignore that.

“Well I wanted to talk, to get to know you better” this time, he was turned and looking into my eyes, fully focused on me and waiting for my reply.

“Right, well okay then” way to go Madison, that’s all you say. At the moment that was all I could think of to answer with.

“It seems you know all about me already” I told him and that was the truth. By everything he said earlier it seems he knows a lot about me, but not so much that he could become my new best friends or anything. Ha-ha, like that would ever happen. He ignored me.

“Wanna play a game?” I was amazed at how fast he changed the subject.

“Depends” I muttered. “What game?”

“20 questions” he grinned at me. Was this guy serious? I looked back at him...yup he was definitely serious.

“Uh sure. You can start” that way it gave me time to think of questions.

“Why are you still single?” I blushed as soon as the words left his mouth.

“Uh well...I um sort of gave up on love and relationships”

“Why?” he blurted out.

“It’s a long story” I answered but actually not wanting to tell him. Why he was so interested was beyond me anyway.

“I’ve got time” Carter smirked.

“But I don’t” I wasn’t about to tell him about Bliss and Matt. You see, I’m not the type of person to open up easily. I don’t tell just anyone about my life story, especially not someone I met just today.

“I gotta go” I said, getting up from the swing.

“What about my other 19 questions?” now he was standing up too.

“Ask them whenever you want and I promise to answer them truthfully” at the moment I was saying anything just to go home.

“I won’t forget, trust me. Goodbye Madison”

“Of course you won’t forget” I groaned while I heard him laughing.

“I’ll see you later bad boy” I gave him a small smile and left him standing alone in the park.

I started to head home before my mom got worried. And before it got dark too of course, lets just say I don’t like the dark very much. Yup I’m weird like that.
