A Typical Teen Love Story

Chapter 10: Just Friends

The weekend was the may long weekend, so my dad had driven from Rosedale to pick me up. I missed camping and I felt bad that my dad had to drive so far, but they wouldn't let me or Mona sleepover, so they were forced to. I ended up texting Josh until about 3am when I forced him to go to bed. He was so cute and everything. We talked about literally every single topic. Things that made us laugh, things that made us cry, things that we disliked, and even just random things. I even talked to Josh about his previous relationships. We had never opened up so much to each other and it was actually quite weird. I felt like he knew every single detail about my life. The only thing I didn't tell him was that I write stories about guys that I liked. I felt as if it was weird to share that with him. It was such a personal thing, and it helped me vent out my emotions. I knew I could probably go to Josh for anything, but I wasn't sure if this was something I was ready to admit yet. I was embarrassed because I did write maybe 1 or 2 stories about him, and I didn't want him to know what went on in my head because it was essentially exactly what went on in my head. It was just too much to worry about.

Josh and I texted each other that whole weekend, and we never ran out of things to talk about. I even talked to him about the cute boys at the waterslides and he was convinced that I was seeing him every single time I looked at a guy and that was why I thought the guys were cute. He always knew how to make me laugh and it was just great to know that I had found a friend in Josh also. I now knew that I was bound to this boy forever because if we finished our relationship, he would know so much about me, I would never be able to cut him off. I wasn't sure if that was a good thing, or a bad thing. Either way, I would always have Josh, and that's what mattered most to me. I was dying for Tuesday to see if any of the conversations we had would amount to the texts we exchanged with each other. It was a long weekend, so we didn't have school on Monday and school didn't start until Tuesday. My friends were also dying to figure out what the heck was going on. After dancing with Josh, they assumed that we were together again, but I had reassured them not, so they were trying to figure out what had happened. I assumed Josh's friends did the same, but I wasn't sure if he had told them yet.

Hey, so have you told your friends about us?

What do you mean?

Have you told them about us not being together? Like my friends asked me about it all...

Oh that...yeah they asked me, and I told them that we weren't together...

Oh, so you did tell them...

Well, not everything, I just told them that you and I agreed to not date and just take time to get to know each other better.

So essentially told them...

Yeah, was I not supposed to?

No, no! I was just wondering...

Well, if you'd like to know, they think it's a good idea to do that because we didn't really do that at all

Agreed, should I explain it to my friends?

I think your friends are smart enough to figure it out...

You obviously don't know my friends...JK don't tell them I said that!

Haha, too late! It's screenshot!

Delete it!!! I demand you delete it!
