The Story That Ruined Us

A Slippery Slope

After the long talk, it was kind of hard for Nichole to actually go up and talk to Dean. Well she did and she sat there and watched him draw as they would have small conversations but nothing like what it use to be. Nichole knew something was. With high school around the corner and soccer games like crazy, Nichole knew Dean didn't like the thought of not having her around. She makes him happy. But it was strange for Nichole to be just sitting there next to Dean as he drew. She knew it was awkward. She could feel the tension between them. It felt as someone stabbed you in the heart and just kept slowly turning the knife. Nichole hated this feeling so she tried to relax and calm down about all of it. The next couple of days were better. The two had started talking again and Nichole really enjoyed that. Dean had talked to her after school about high school and how he knows the school Nichole is going to is better for her, he would much rather have her with him. Nichole was uneasy after this. She started eating a lot more after this , due to stress eating. Nichole tried to stop but it wasn't working. Dean found out and told her to worry not because he'll be there for her any time she needs.
