Masked Love- A JC Caylen Fan Fiction

Chapter 8

CAYLEN'S POV:

Chapter 8-

I don't think my head could have spun faster than it did. She came up to me straight faced, and with the question I had been dreading since I fell in love, and wasn't allowed to.

"Is this happening or not?"

"Keep your voice down," I pleaded.

"Answer me!" Erin yelled. I grabbed her arm and took her over into the corner of the gym.

"Let go of me! I need an answer, either you break up with Grace right now, or I leave and never come back!" She was yelling so loud I thought I was lucky if Grace didn't hear it herself on the 3rd floor. Apparently things just echo in the corner so she didn't actually say it that loud. I didn't know what to say. Nothing was going on with Grace, she is just a coverup for Erin. I have no idea what to do.

Then all the sudden I am mad at Erin. I snap.

"Why are doing this to me right now! You give me no warning basically tell the whole world I like you, and now you're pressuring me into making a split a second decision! What kind of a friend are you!" Then she answers with something that made my decision so easy it was mind blowing.

"Because I love you." It was so plain, so perfect. I wanted so badly to kiss her right there and then. It would be so easy, just to lean over and kiss her. I love her so much, I hate my dad for not letting show it. In that moment I was done with it, done with everything. Done with my dad, done with Grace, done with my gold digging step mom. I ran out of the gym up the stairs as I heard Ms. Dun yell at me to come back. But I ran up the stairs like I was shot out of a cannon. I was done, fed up, with everything but Erin.

I reach the hallway to Grace's science class just as the bell rings. I am screwed, during passing periods you're lucky if you get to your next class in one piece, let alone on time. She shot out of her class determined to get to her next class, going in the opposite of me. I try to think. What is her next class? French? No, that's my next class. Think! Algebra! I run downstairs, trying to get to room 209 before she does. I reach the classroom as she is fast walking down the hall. She sees me at the door and smiles then frowns in a curious way.

"What are you doing at my class, Caylen?" The 30-second bell rings, and I don't care because I will not wait any longer, my feelings must come out, and they must come out now.

"Grace, I am gonna be frank, I really don't like you, I never did. I'm in love with Erin Liken, I'm gonna breaking up with you now, please don't cry, I'm late for class." That was the worst I've ever said to a woman in my life. The worst part, I would do it again if it meant being with Erin, hell I would do 5 million times more if it meant I could be with Erin. But of course the second I say don't cry she breaks out into tears and eye liner runs down her cheeks as the bell rings and her teacher closes the door on her hair.

I hold her for about 5 seconds, help her get her hair out of he door and run off to class. I know I am late, and that means a lunch or after school detention. Which sucks because besides P.E. (which already happened) lunch and after school are the only times I would now get to see Erin. I take the after school and figure I'll tell her during lunch and go over to her house after school once my detention is over.

At lunch I was going to let my friends know that I broke up with Grace and did it for Erin. I was expecting a "eww her", or "haha, nice joke Caylen", which is what I got, but when I went over to tell Erin that we could see each other as a couple we could be together. It sounds exactly like a fairy tale ending, even though it was just our beginning. I told Grace I love Erin, now I need to tell Erin, Dad, The gold digger and all my friends. I had it all planned out, but when do plans ever actually go as you plan?
