Your My Best Friend

Why him

I'm in my room working on homework when my phone buzzes, I see its Morgan. "Hey what's up" I say all I hear is crying on the other end "mint chocolate chip or cookie dough?" I ask "both" she says through sniffs. I sigh "I'm on my way" I say and hag up. I grab my car keys "mom I'm going to Morgan's" I yell "I got ice cream in the freezer to save you time and money" she says emerging from the kitchen with two things of ice cream in hand. "Thanks Mom" I say taking both tubs of ice cream. "You know if this is how you take care of your best friend some girl is going to be lucky to have you one day" she says pinching my cheek "thanks ma" I say and walk out the door.

I pull in to Morgan's drive way and get out of my car. I get to the door and ring the door bell. I wait for a minute when Morgan's dad opens the door "New record. only ten minutes after she came home crying" Mr. Dickenson says. "We just keep the ice cream on stand by now" I say with a sad smile "it's a shame you have to" he says sadly. He moves out of the way to let me in. I walk in and go straight to her room. I knock "Mom I don't want to talk" Morgan says sobbing still "well it's to bad I have two things of ice cream, and I'm going to have to eat them all by my self" I say jokingly. The door fly's open. "Mint chocolate chip and cookie dough" I say holding them up. "Thanks Josh" she says. She lets me in and
I plopped down on her bed. "What he do this time?" I asked "I caught him making out with Brittany Thomsen" she says with a mouth full of ice cream. "Forget about him it's his loss" I say in between bites "it's hard to do that. He so sweet Josh he makes me feel so happy most of the time" she says "let's just forget about what happened and have movie night. Just like old times we can even watch Disney movies" I say wiggling my eyebrows. She just sat there for a minute. I groaned "even the straight to DVD princess ones" she looks up and smiles "you have your self a deal Joshy" I give her an annoyed look she knows I hate when she calls me that. But she burst it out laughing. I smiled and joined in.

The rest of the night was a blast we laughed at stupid things, sang like no one could here us. I left her house around two a.m. As I drove home all I could think about was why him, why go back to him every time. He says sorry it won't happen again and then every things fine again. Why can't she just be done with him and see what's in front of her. I guess I can't blame her when I'm the chicken who just won't tell her how I really feel, That I'm in love with her.

It's the next day at school I walk in to the cafeteria and I see her talking to him. I get closer "baby I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you, I love you" Peyton says holding her hands "Peyton I love you to" she says. I can't believe it he does it again and she goes back. Why can't she see that he uses her like a toy "Josh what's up" I turn and see Cole. He sees the look on my face "he did it again didn't he? And you picked up the pieces, and she went back to him" "yep" I say popping the p "dude this isn't a movie the good guy doesn't always get the girl" he says. Morgan sees us and come running over and throws her arms around us. "Well someone is in a good mood" Cole says laughing "ya me and Peyton made up and he asked me to prom!!" she squeals. She looks at me with that smile of hers "that's grate I'm happy for you" I say. She hugs me "I got to go Peyton is walking me to class" she says and runs back to him. I feel this pain in my chest as I see them walk away "you have to tell her dude, or your always going to be the friend who picks up the pieces" Cole says "as long as she's happy that's all I want" I say and then walked to class.
