I stared at my screen, speechless. I posted this week's video and didn't expect the 'Casey' thing to still be going, that it'd be a one time thing.

I did not expect this.

"Carter, you said this 'shipping' thing would blow over!" I told Carter as I walked up to him in the school hall.

He looked up from his phone and over to me. He sighed, "I don't even get a formal greeting Lace?" He asked. He paused, waiting for an answer. When I didn't give him one, he continued, "I never said how long it would take, Lacey"

"And?" I asked.

He shrugged, "And what? We can't do anything about them, but we can just ignore it." He paused, "Why is this bothering you so much? It's only been a couple weeks or something since this started"

I groaned and said, "Because, I don't want people thinking I'm dating my best friend!" I said.

Carter stared at me for a second before sighing and turning to open his locker.

He put in the combination and unhooked the lock. He opened the door while I stood, rooted in my place. After a few minutes, Carter grabbed something. He left the locker door open.

He turned back to me and I looked at what he was holding.

A picture?

"Lace, my partner-in-crime, you shouldn't be worrying about people thinking we are dating. Besides, we've dealt with this for years, people thinking we are dating I mean." He handed the picture to me and I took it.

I looked down at the picture. It was a picture from when Carter first met me and Evan. Carter was in the middle of us two, his arms slung across both our shoulders in his carefree relaxed way.

"Even then, people thought we were a future couple" he said.

I smiled down at the picture. That day, it was a day of the grade's first field trip. Somehow, Carter, who was in a different class, managed to sneak onto our bus and into our group.

Let's just say, that was one of many rebellious acts done by little Carter.

"You thought you were such a badass didn't you?" I asked Carter, looking up and dismissing the past subject.

He shrugged and smirked, "Ain't I a badass though?" He asked.

I let out a laugh and handed the picture back to him. He took the picture back and gently placed it back in his locker. He closed the door and hooked the lock back on and locked it.

Carter turned to me and smiled, "So, is Lacey not worrying and being paranoid anymore?" He asked.

I shrugged and walked up next to him and hooked my arm with his. Even though he didn't hook his arm with mine, leaving his arm at his side while I had my arm hooked with his, I started bringing him down the hall.

I looked down the filled hall. Surprisingly, I spotted the identity thief I call a brother.

I smiled and reached my other arm over to Carter and moved his arm to hook with mine. Carter groaned, irritated, but let me pull him along with our arms hooked together. I picked up my speed and continued down the hall.
