Chapter 14
Katie's PoV

Woah, the month break from school went by fast. Now we're going back to normal.
Sydney and Luke? The last time I saw them was the last day of school before the month break. Guess they went on a vacation.

"You ready?" Caleb asked through the phone.
"Yes. Going to the park?"
"How'd you know?"
"We go there every single day, Caleb."
"Oh, right."
"See you there." I hung up. I went to curl my hair because I want to, and wore a plain white crop top, shorts, and converse. I soon went outside, with my wallet and Phone.

"Hi." He said as he saw me. "Hey." I replied.
We both sat on a bench, and silence came.

"Want me to buy us Ice Cream?" I asked. "I'm gonna do i--" "No, I insist." I smiled. He let me buy Ice Cream, since he has nothing to do with it.

I went back, and saw Sydney.

Kissing Caleb.

I was shocked, and speechless. This was my weakness. Seeing someone kissing him.
I started to cry, and covered my face with my hair. "Hi, why are you crying?" A little girl asked. She probably was around 7 years old. "Oh, oh. It's nothing." I fake smiled, then wiped my tears. "Do you have any siblings or friends?" I asked. "Oh, I don't have any friends. They think I'm ugly. But I have one brother who protects me and defends me." She smiled. I knelt down so I was on her level.

"Don't ever think you're ugly. You're beautiful. Here, take this." I gave the ice creams that were in my hand. "Why?"
"For distracting me from... Things."I fought back the tears. "Thank you! What's your name?" She asked. "I'm Katie. You are?"
"Emily." "I'll see you soon, Emily." I stood up, and looked if they were still kissing.

They are.

"I got to go. Thanks for the Ice cream!" She said, walking away. I smiled, then soon after, I cried. "Katie..." I looked behind me. Luke.

I ran away. I didn't want to see anyone at the moment. "Katie! Wait!" Luke said, chasing after me. I hid behind a tree, and sat there. I started to cry harder. "Katie? Why are you crying?" He asked, sitting down. "Because of your F***ing sister and my F***ing Boyfriend." I managed to get through the tears.

"What did they do?" "I-I, don't wanna talk about it." I cried even harder, so I placed my head on my knees. He hugged me. But it didn't take away even a small pinch of sadness.

The following day was a school day. I had every class with him, and that's unfortunate.

I walked to school and I saw Caleb. I gave him another chance and he took it for granted, I guess.

"Katie, can we please talk?" He said, going near me. "No." I simply said.
"Please?" He kept on begging. "NO!"
I walked away from him. Atleast I had classes with Luke.

I thought we were meant to be.
I sat at my usual place. The chair. Well I would get detention if I sat on the floor.
He sat beside me. "Katie, please." He whispered. "No." I whispered back, paying attention to what the teacher was saying.

Lunch came and I only sat with Luke. I was mad at Sydney. "Can you tell me please what happened?" He kept on bugging me. "Okay, fine. They both kissed." I said, playing with my food. "What the hell?" he whispered to himself, which I heard.

From afar, I saw him looking at us. He was alone.

School day was already done, and for that whole day, I didn't talked to Caleb. I felt fine, but there was one part of me saying that there's something missing, and that was Caleb. I sighed.

Caleb's PoV

I walked home alone. It didn't felt right. "Hey sweetie, why do you look sad?" Mom asked while I was sitting down. I shook my head.

"You can tell me anything." she sat on the couch infront of me.
"Fine. Katie... Katie saw me kissing Sydney yesterday." mom's jaw dropped, and hit me on the arm. "WHY DID YOU KISS HER?!" she said, shouting and sitting on the couch again.
"I didn't! It was her!"
"Oh my gosh Caleb, she's going to be so depressed! Why didn't you pull out quickly?"
"Her grip was too hard! Mom you aren't helping!"
"Oh, sorry honey. Do you have feelings on Sydney?"
"Kind of.."
"B**ch!" she yelled.
"MOM!"
"Whoops, it slipped."
"Okay. Who was your childhood friend, your first and true love, the one who you share secrets with, the one you loved truly, and the one who you kissed in the rain?" she asked.
"Uhm, Katie, Katie, Katie, Katie, Liv." She hit me again. "I'm joking, Katie." "See? You didn't mention Sydney. Go talk to Katie or else you'll be grounded for a whole month, no phones, no going out, no gadgets."

I quickly ran to her house. Brennan opened the door. "Go talk to her." He said, and sat on the couch.

I knocked. "I-I d-don't h-have ti-time Brennan.." She said. She's stuttering, so it means she's crying. Brennan gave me the key to her door, and I unlocked it. "Thanks."I whispered and gave it back to him.

She was sitting beside the door, and crying with her head on her knees. She was holding a blade, with blood dripping on her floor. My eyes widen. She did it again.

She still was crying. "Katie."I mumbled, and carried her to her bed. I laid her down, and she didn't notice it was me.

She quickly fell asleep, while I was finding some medicine for the wounds. I found it, and cleaned it. When I was almost done, she woke up. "C-Caleb?" She sat up. "No, don't move." I kept on cleaning the wounds.

"Stay away from me." she removed her arm.
"Katie. I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. I didn't kiss her, she did. Her grip was to--" "Excuses." she cuts me off. "It isn--" "Get out of my room." "Katie. Listen. Her grip was too hard. I couldn't remove it. Just please, Katie. Believe me." I finally explained. "You don't even care about me." She fought back the tears forming.

"I do. Why did I stare at you when you were with Luke? While you were studying? Why would I clean your wounds? Why did I go here to talk to you? And all you think is that I didn't care, even if I sacrificed my whole life just for you to be happy."

She was crying, hard. I panicked. "Katie? Katie why are you crying?"I sat beside her and wiped her tears. I hated to see her cry.

"I'm sorry, Caleb. I think I d-don't d-deserve you.." She moved away from me. "No, No. Don't say that. You deserve me. And I deserve you." I kissed her on the forehead and hugged her. She kept on crying. "Nooo don't cry!" I hugged her tight. I'll never hurt her again.
