So far the hadn't told Cierra that i liked her. But i just couldn't trust Bethany. I knew that she was going to tell her, but i just didn't know when. The following day, i asked her, " Why do you hate me so much?" She and i were the only ones at the tree, so it was a perfect time to ask. " why do you think i don't like you?" She said it with a smirk on her face. " You know what i mean. Why is everything you say to me always negative?" "Look, I like you as barely anything more then a friend." "But why?" I asked.
"It's just that..." She started. "It's just what?!?" I yelled in a question. "it just that ever since i told Cierra you like her....." 'wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,' I thought. " You told her that i like her!!" She started quit for two seconds, then continued. " Yeah." And before i could say something, she said, " Now all she wants to talk about is you, and, our friend ship is growing further a part." I stood there. sad and a little sorry for her."look, i didn't know. if you want me to stop hanging out with you guys, i could- "No." She said. " to tell you the truth, it's kind of fun to have you around."
That cold shame in my heart filled up... with a little bit of happiness. "Thank's,"i said, " means a lot coming from you." "Don't get all soft on me." She said. " I won't. does this make us friends now?" I waited for her response. " Yeah, i guess i does." "Cool. So.... since you told Cierra that i like her.... can i tell Kyle?" "What no." We both laughed and went to class, as: as friends.
