It's been about a week since I saw Delly and Ellington at the Movies. Delly and I have been texting. I'm so glad that they are keeping my secret. Jack and I have gotten pretty close, we are really good friends. I think I like him...
I've decided to start looking for a place of my own. Hopefully I can find something close to Jack. A couple days later I found a small apartment a few blocks down from Sabrina's and Jack's. Rydel came to check it out with me.
"It's nice" she said. "Yeah and it's not too far from Sabrina and Jack" I said. Rydel smiled at me and said "So you and Jack have gotten pretty close, do you like him?" "Well.." I said blushing. "You do!" She said pointing at me. "Ok Fine I do like him..." I said.
We checked out the apartment and decided where some things will go. I paid for it and left. We were on our way to the furniture store. "Hey can I ask you something Rickey?" Rydel said. "Yeah what's up?" I answered. "Why do you want Ellington and I to keep seeing you a secret?" She said. "Why? I don't fit in with you guys, I just don't belong, I'm pretty sure no one has realized I was gone!" I shouted at her. "You know your wrong." Rydel said. "What do you mean?" I asked. "We do miss you everyone's worried about you!" She yelled. "Yeah right!" I yelled back. "You know that guitar you got Ross, he plays it all the time, and the T-shirt you got Riker, it's his favorite!" She yelled. "We do miss you Rickey!" She said with tears rolling down her cheeks. I realized what I had done but I couldn't face them, I just can't... I won't.
A couple days after The fight I met up with Rydel. We talked and I agreed that she can tell everyone that I'm ok and that she has seen me, but not to tell them where I was. About an hour or two later, Jack and I went out to eat. We talked and ate (the food was so good) I told him about everything that has happened in the last few days. We went over to his house afterwards to go eat some dessert and watch a movie. We watched Suicide Squad. When the movie ended we just sat there and talked for a while.
"You spat the milk on her!" I said laughing my head off. "Hey I was 7" he said laughing. We stopped laughing and sat in silence for a while.
"Hey Rickey can I ask you something?" He said. "Yeah what is it?" I said with butterflies in my stomach. He paused and said, " I-I Like you Rickey..." I had a huge smile and my checks probably turned bright red. "I Like you too Jack, I had since the first day we had met." I said blushing
"Will you be my girlfriend?" He asked me, "Yes" I said with a big smile in my face. We sat there in silence for a bit. He looked at me, and I looked at him. He leaned closer to me and kissed me.
I kissed back. Wow I've never felt this way about a person, ever.
