C- "I could never hate you Leisa...I'm sorry I gave you that impression ;("

L- "You sure make it seem like you hate me. Make up your mind. Do you hate me, or don't you?"

C- "I could never hate you Leisa."

I smiled after Cole sent that last text. I shut my phone off and went to sleep. I woke up in the morning and checked my phone.

C- "I need to tell you something when we walk to school."

L- "Or you could tell me now?"

C- "I'd rather say it in person."

L- "Okay...?"

I started to worry about what he wanted to tell me. That he does hate me? That he's moving again, please no!

I got ready as fast as I could. I put on a black crop top, a flannel, jeans, and my Converse.

I grabbed an apple and bolted out the door. "Bye dad, love you." I screamed.

"Wait, why are you leaving at 7:00? School starts at 8:00."

"I know, Cole wants to talk to me about something. Bye!"

I ran outside and to Cole's house. "Hey, I'm here. Cole?"

"He's not awake yet, dear." Mrs.R whispered as she walked past.

I ran up the stairs and into his room. He was still fast asleep even after my yelling. I decided I'd wake him up. I walked over to his bed and sat on him.

I flicked him in the neck. "Cole, get your ass out of this bed, you were awake earlier."

"Ouch, what the heck was that for?" He said as he turned over, which flipped me off of him.

"Wait, why were you sitting on me?" He chuckled.

I looked into his eyes and smiled.
"What?" He questioned.

"Nothing." I shook my head. "You had to tell me something?" As soon as I said this Cole turned a light crimson. I giggled, he was obviously nervous about something. He blushed an even deeper crimson.

"Oh, I need to tell you something too, hurry up and get ready it's already 7:10, I'll be downstairs with your mom." I giggled again.

Gosh, I was chipper today. I walked downstairs and made myself comfy on the couch. Mrs.R walked in with two cups of coffee. "You want it?" She questioned, nodding to the coffee. I nodded and thanked her.

"How much of last night's conversation did you hear?" She asked. My eyes widened.

"You know about that?" I chuckled.

"You were making it blatantly obvious with the way you're acting." She finished. I nodded, she knew. One less person to tell I guess.

"Cole, hurry it up!" I screamed. "It's a ten minute walk there!" As soon as I finished saying that, Cole walked down the stairs and motioned towards the door.

"Then let's go." He said sarcastically. I rolled my eyes and said thank you to Mrs.R.

"Who talks first?" I sighed as we left.

Cole was quiet for a few moments.

"Fine, I guess I will. I heard your entire conversation with your mom last night." I said as I studied my fingernails.

"What?" Cole shrieked. "You weren't supposed to hear that! How did you hear that?"

"Calm down, I came over to apologize to you last night."
