We started to play but Chris and I were losing. After a while Chris said he needed to take a leak but actually I think he was getting tired of losing. "Let's play hide and seek instead," he said. "You guys are counting," he told them.
He pulled me behind a sign which became our hiding space. "They'll never find us here," he said. "Nice idea," I said bumping him lightly with my hip. "Oh gosh Chris," I feel bad for them, maybe we should've hidden somewhere easier to find," I said. "Come on kiz, don't worry its just a game," he told me. He sat down on the sand and I followed but fell with a thud on my butt instead. "Are you okay?" he asked looking at me. "I'm fine Chris, and thanks for looking out for me and being concerned, your such a good friend," I said as I hugged him. When I pulled away, I was pulled back and he kissed me. He tried to deepen the kiss but I pushed him off. "Chris, I can't, we can't," I said getting up off the ground. I can't believe he just did that. My best friend Chris just kissed me. "It's fine, I shouldn't have done that with you anyways," he retorted. "Chris we're friends," I said trying to rub his arm. He pulled away. "No I get it kizzy," he said sounding hurt. He turned and walked away. "Chris, wait, please, you don't understand," I said walking behind him. "It's fine," he said. But knowing Chris, I knew that he it wasn't fine at all. I walked ahead of him and stopped, staring in his face. "Your mad at me," I said. "No I'm not mad at you," he replied. "Now could you please excuse me?" "Chris don't be like that," I said trying to make eye contact. "Just, get out of my way please," he said. I moved aside and he walked past me. Sarah and Travis were getting along great. They were talking and laughing. "Let's go guys," Chris told them. "We couldn't find you guys anywhere, where did you hide?" Sarah asked. "Behind the sign but I want to leave now," Chris said. "Okay kizzy, let's just slip our dresses over our heads since we're already dry," Sarah said to me. We quickly changed and got in the car. We drove off heading for home. "Chris," I said trying to talk to him, but he turned up the radio. Why is he acting like this? We are best friends and he just kissed me like that. What did he expect me to do? We finally reached my house. My brother and I got out of the car. "Bye Sarah," I said. She waved in reply and then mouthed 'what's wrong with Chris?' ' I'll call you ' I mouthed back. "Chris I started but he drove off without a word. We got in the house. There was a note on the fridge from my mom.

I went up to my room. I sat on the bed and closed the door behind me. I took out my phone.
