Two years later
I stared at the ceiling as I lay in bed with Carl. It had been a long day since I had turned 14 two weeks ago meaning dad could teach me medical stuff. I was pretty sure Carl was asleep so I got up. As I grabbed my journal i heard Carl getting up. I dropped the journal and sat on the box it was in.
"Um what are you doing?" Carl giggled.
"I couldn't sleep so I was gonna go get water." You lied.
"You're lying, is something wrong?" Carl asked. You and Carl have been best friends for 9 years. He could tell if you were lying easily.
"No, I'm fine." You replied.
Carl shakes his head and lays back down.
"You can talk to me if you need something, but I'm going to sleep." He said.
"Thanks Carl." You replied.
He nodded and you went back to grabbing your journal and you got your reading light thingy but you put it in your mouth so you could write, little did you know, Carl was still awake. You ended up writing this:
December 23,2016
I can't sleep again. I don't know how to tell him, but I really want to. Dad still won't listen about the fences thing. He thinks they're perfect. I can kick one over and there's only one of me, so ten of those things would be even worse. I want to leave, which was why I grabbed you. I was gonna pack my bags and leave alone. I couldn't do it. I couldn't leave these people, they're my family, and we stick together. Anyways, I'll see you later, xoxo Trinity.
You put your diary back in the box with your reading light and slept on the other bed, not wanting to wake Carl up.
CARLS POV
I got up and walked over to the box where Trinity kept her journal. I opened it and read her most recent entry. I would sit and think about who she's talking about and went back a page. It said stuff about this guy which made me jealous until I realized who it was. Me. I re-read one of the paragraphs. "His blue eyes are amazing, but I have zero chance. Best friend for nine years my ass. He hangs out with Chloe way more than me. At least I can talk to Carson and Melanie." I looked down realizing what I was doing to her. I looked over noticing her in the other bed. She only slept with me if I asked. Maybe Chloe is bothering her. I picked her up and lied her in my bed and I lied next to her. She looked at me with her beautiful brown eyes. She giggled a little which was adorable and faced the wall. I wrapped my arms around her waist and we fell asleep.
