the story of us

I watched

forever is forever but like a
promise, it doesn't last
I was watching Ricky walk to who knows where. My heart hurt. Cody was still hugging me but I was watching Ricky. "Ricky Robert Garcia" I said and he turned at looked at me.
"That's not my middle name" he laughed. It was an inside joke, I had new it was really Rena, but since the fifth grade I had always yelled "Ricky Robert Garcia" when he annoyed me or just to make him mad.
Cody stopped hugging me and
Looked at both Ricky and I. "Your laughing at me!" I said looking at Ricky. "Yeah because your annoying" he said and laughed. "I'm going home, do you want some new clothes I'll stop by your house and get some for you" he said. "Yeah get me my pink long sleeved shirt and" I started to say "yeah just that" I smiled. "Thank you rick" I said and he just kept walking.
      Bailee and Paige came from around the corner the same time Ricky got into the elevator. "Really guys. Really?" I chuckled and sat back down next to Cody. "Really" Bailee said sitting next to me and Paige next to her. "Are you and Ricky back to being how you were?" Paige asked not looking at me. I was kinda quiet.
      "Not yet" I muttered. "Yet?" Paige said happily and Cody said not that happily. I didn't say anything. I got up and walked outside, it was sprinkling. I sat in a chair by myself and cried. Nobody else was out there, or so I thought. However the next time I looked up Bailee was sitting next to me. "Chlo?" She said looking at me, she had tears in her eyes.
       "Yea b?" I said. "Between you and me... What happens if we don't get.. Well if we don't get Brooke back?" Bailee said and hugged her knees. "Bailee.. I can't answer that. I can't imagine life without her. I've got you tho b." I said and sat close to her and put my arms around her. "We've got each other, and Paige" I said and we hugged. "And Ricky" she said.
     "Yep. You've got Ricky" I said still hugging her. "We've got Ricky." She said looking me dead in the eye.
