Chapter 15
Eli's pov
I found the note that Carter had left. I carefully folded it and tucked it in my pocket, deep in thought.
It is taking all my courage to admit this, even to myself, but I have feelings for Carter.
Everything I have been trying to reject about myself is crashing down. I can't stop it, I want to be with Carter and that's that.
My parents were completely oblivious to all the thoughts running in my head. They had no idea how deep my level of thinking has gotten and they didn't care.
Do you know how frustrating that is?
I already told Kayla about what happened last night with Carter, and none of my friends were awnsering there phones so I might as well text Carter. But only because I was bored. Yep.
I typed the first message,
Me: hey.
Hey? Really that's all I could think of??? I need to work on my texting skills.
Carter: hey 😊
I furrowed my eyebrows at the sight of the emoji? What does that even mean?
Me: wyd
Carter: just messing with Wes 😂 we are in the car on the way home and he's being an ass hole.
Me: oh lol, Kayla said they had a date coming up 😏
Carter: that emoji is so creepy TBH but yeahhh they are my otp ❤️
Me: otp?
Carter: one true pairing. Duh.
Me: your such a fan boy.
Chapter 15
Carters pov
"Ooo Eli and Carter sitting in a a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" Wes teased and I groaned.
"Shut up!" I whined and smacked him.
"Hey, nobody's hitting anybody so both of you calm down." My mom scolded.
Well I just hit Wes so she must be going senile. Crazy ass parents.
My dad seemed really stiff about the Eli situation.
But I wish he wasn't.
There was something different about Eli.
He was different then anyone else I know, and I don't even know him all that well. We got to know each other last night but it wasn't deep stuff.
Almost as if Eli knew what I was thinking he texted me again.
Eli🐼: also, this is random but thanks for last night.
I smiled at the text, although if you hadn't known what happened last night you might think something very dirty. I laughed at that thought and replied quickly.
Me: np. It was nice.
"Who ya texting?" Wes asked looking over my shoulder but I quickly turned off my phone and scowled at him.
"It better not have been that boy!" My dad warned and I turned bright red.
"It was, wasn't it!?" Wes asked laughing and I hid my face in my hands from the embarrassment.
"No it wasn't!" I insisted.
A second later by phone beeped. Crap he texted back at the worst time.
"Then who was that?" My mom questioned.
"Yeah Carter, who was that?" Wes pried with a smirk. I rolled my red and mouthed the words 'fuck you' to him.
The rest of the car ride mainly consisted me sneaking texts to Eli and my dad and Wes making fun of me when the caught me.
It was kinda nice.
