My Best Friend || Joel Pimentel

Chapter 13

"Zack," I sighed. "I'm sorry, but I still have strong feelings for Joel. And I don't want to go out with you if I'm in love with someone else. But we're still friends right?" I said.

"Yes don't worry, I understand," he said sadly. Yes I do feel bad but I did the right thing.

He helped me off his car, he then kissed my cheek, "Goodnight Princess."

"Good night Zack and thanks for the ride."

"Your welcome." From there I went inside with my shopping bags. I head to my bedroom and put on my pajamas. I just stayed up all night watching 'Glee'. I miss Joel so much. I really want to talk to him but I feel like he's still mad at me.

Yoandri and I got close, all we really talk is about Joel honestly. There has been times where we talked about each other. He honestly reminds me of Joel so much. They act the same way. They both care, they both make me smile, they both sing amazing, they both make me laugh, but don't worry I'm not falling for Yoandri, he's just a friend, Joel on the other hand he's the one who has my heart and each day he breaks it little by little.

*Joel's pov*
"Joel have you talked to Zandra," my mom asked.

"No," I sighed just remembering of her.

"Are you planning to talk to her?"

"Um if I talk to her now, it'll be awkward."

My phone vibrated once, which means I got a message. I looked to see from who it was and it was from Anna, the girl from Disneyland. It turned out that she lives here in Miami. I opened her text, it read:

Anna 💗: hey joel , wanna hang out today? To celebrate?

Oh yea I forgot to mention I am now part of a group called CNCO. Sadly Yoandri didn't made it in, but I'm proud with my bandmates.

Me: I would love to but its really late and I'm tired but I'm free tomorrow morning till noon.

Anna 💗: okay we'll go and eat breakfast. Meet me at iHop the one cross from your hotel room at 8 o'clock. -xoxo

I'm starting to develop strong feelings for Anna. I mean who wouldn't? She's funny and very pretty. She meet Yoandri but he didn't approve our friendship. He told me that she seems like those girls who uses guys for popularity but who cares what he thinks, I'm finally starting to fall in love again. Zandra has Zack and I have Anna.

Speaking of Zandra as you could tell I'm not in love with her anymore. I felt like all these years she was just pretending to be my friend because she was a loner during elementary school, middle school and most of High School. And now that I'm gone, she goes and kisses other guys. Whatever at least I am on the road of fame and she'll regret it later.

Next morning
My alarm rang at 7:30 and I am now getting ready for today. I had a dream last night about Zandra. Actually I've been having a lot of dreams about her lately, I don't know why but I'm not liking it. Basically all the dreams is all the things I wanted to do with her. Like taking her with me to awards shows, take care of her when she's dreaming, love her the way I want to, but I can't. She's Zack's girl and there's nothing I could do about it.

I waited for Anna at iHop with Yoandri and his friend Celine. "Um how long will your girlfriend take?" Celine asked.

"She isn't my girlfriend yet, and I have no idea I'll text her right now." I said as I took out my phone.

"Yet?" Yoandri asked.

"Yes, I am actually planing to go out with her soon." I told him. He didn't seem to happy about it because he lightly rolled his eyes. But I pretended that I didn't notice.
