Chapter 13 Waiting For You<3 A Greyson Chance and Cody Simpson Love Story

Chapter 13

I couldn't believe what he was saying. He wanted me to give up Greyson, one of my best friends, for him, the one I thought I loved. But maybe what he was saying about me being afraid of being alone is what I was really scared of. Did I really love him? Or was I too fearful of being alone. It pained me to know that I couldn't decide.

"Cody," pain is etched into my soul and I hear it in my voice. Cody is not oblivious to it either. "You are right, I am scared. The thing that kills me the most is...what if me liking you is just," I pause having to admit the truth to myself. "Fear?" He locks his eyes that I adore with mine. 

"Well, is it?" He tries to hide the irritation in his voice but I know him all too well.

"I don't know..." I look down and play with my fingers, my nervous habit. "I know I love you and I know you do too...but I'm not positive if it's true or just me being alone. And every time we talk about this I can't help but think of Greyson. I can't do that to him."

Cody exhales in aggravation. "Shelby, can you do this to me? Can you say no then we go on like we have been for the past two months? Could we ever go back to normal without thinking we never tried?" I sit there in silence.

Its obvious I love him and I know I'm not scared. What really drew me back was Greyson and Gisela. I knew I admitted to myself that Gisela thought it was fine with it but I couldn't help but replay the hurt in her eyes. And Greyson, how faithful he was sickened me. He didn't even act somewhat angry which would have been typical. Instead, he hugs me then says he loves me. No, there was no way I'd make the same mistake twice.

"I can't Cody. No Cody, I won't. Please don't be mad and promise you understand." We sit there with the rain pounding on the roof and the thunder shaking the house. The lightning lights up my room erratically. The aura of electricity illuminates a single tear running down Cody's face.

He shakes his head and the obvious pain coats his normal voice. "Shelby, I can't ever be mad but I can't promise that I understand." He gets up and makes his way to the doorway of my room. He stands there momentarily as if thinking then turns back to me. "But I can promise you one thing." He inhales a shaky breath.

"I will spend everyday of my life trying to."
