kara's POV
I have no idea how I dared to say yes... I'm looking in the mirror trying to fix my curled up crazy hair.
He wants to take me out today.
I've been avoiding Max for 2 days now, after seeing him kiss Vanna there is no excuse for him to bring up. And frankly I don't want to here his bullshit.
I get ready fast, put on very loose clothes, my black sneakers tied my her up, no make up and a gray sweatshirt around my waist.
I check the time off my phone and see the 25 missed calls from Max.
I don't know how he dares to call me.
I put my phone in pocket and look at myself one last time in the mirror.
Nick text make my pocket vibrate. He's at the door.

It takes 20 minutes to get the restaurant that he made a reservation. As I enter the place I feel the comforting smell of coffee in the air.
I look at the menu as he is sitting down.
We order some food and afterwards coffee and wait for our order to come through.
"Kara, can I ask you a question?!"
"Sure." I force my self a smile
"Did you just agree to come on a date with me because you felt pity for me or you felt obligated?!"
"No, honestly I come on this date to tell you we can't be more than friends. Not because you are not forgiven, you are. But I don't want to hold you on hook, I have feelings for someone else... It's complicated but I can't not give it a chance.
You seem like a good guy I would love to be your friend as long as it won't hurt you..."
"I see... okey FRIEND who is the mystery guy? That lucky bastard?!"
I let out a chuckle, "Umm, it's Max. We have known each other for a really long time and he always makes me feel safe. And we had some moments in the past. I really wanna give it a try."
"So why aren't you here with him?! I saw him last night coming back from the backstreet that's why I approached. Why didn't you tell him??"
This is so wired talking to him about it, but also good to know we can go to the friend zone, I continue "We were kissing last night and I wanted to tell you but then I saw him kissing Vanna right behind you , so I accepted it."
He stairs at we with confusion.
"What is it?! Did I say something?!"
"No, no it's just wried him kissing HER cause I remember the day I told him about my illness he was talking about how he hates her and what a bitch she is becoming, that wa-"
"Wait a minute!? When did you guys talk about this?!"
He drags his hands to his hair thinking about it. "4 or 5 months before he brought me to group. What this has to do with anything?!"
"So he knew about your illness?!"
He frowns,"Yes pretty much in details."
"Wow"
"What?! What did I miss?!"
"He knew and said no shit."
