Back For You (ON HOLD!!!)

Chapter 5: Darcy

Darcy

I decided not to tell Carter about Chase last night.

I didn't want to tell Carter just yet. Things were going good last night and we were already restoring our friendship, I didn't want it to become awkward.

Plus I kinda knew he had feelings for me when we were little. Carter's pretty obvious with his feelings. He really wears them up his sleeve. I used to pretend I didn't know just to make him feel good about it. But he wasn't fooling anyone; not Jason, not Gab, not Julie or mom. Even Adam (Gab and Carter's dad) and my dad knew. But I pretended not to.

I'm a good best friend.

I don't know if he still does like me so I just didn't bring up Chase because he seemed to be in a really good mood last night.

But I don't think Carter likes me anymore, it didn't look like it last night. A lot can happen in 5 years. He could probably have a girlfriend. They might be doing long distance or something.

Not a good choice. How could you trust a person from so far away?

I wasn't embarrassed of Chase, I mean, there's nothing to be embarrassed about. He's awesome.

Chase. Chase Daniels. He's the best boyfriend any girl could ever ever have. I'm so so happy that he's mine. He's so smart, kind, he's popular, and to top it off, he's got the looks that could just make you melt.

Seriously, I'm not kidding. His eyes are a stormy gray that you could just stare at forever.

And his smile. Gosh, that smile.

And I could never forget those adorable dimples. His chocolate brown hair is not too long and not too short and its always a little messy and soft. Yeah, it's really soft. He's pretty hot. But I wouldn't admit it to him, because he would just laugh.

A lot.

He's the captain of our school's varsity basketball team and lead them into the state championship bringing back a huge, shiny gold trophy. Not a surprise. He's practically great at everything.

Also, he's got the brains to back up the looks. He has straight A's and all the teachers love him.

Plus, he's really nice. He's not the mean, player, jealous type.

So, he's practically perfect.

I guess that's why lots of the younger students are jealous of me. Well I'm glad he's all mine. He's a great guy, and I love him so so much.

He really helped me a lot. He helped me take my mind off of Carter back in my freshman year. Back in the end of seventh grade, I was absolutely crushed when I figured out that Carter was leaving me. I wasn't sure if I would see him again. I really loved Carter, not in the boy girl way, but he was my only best friend. He was like my twin brother. I didn't know what I would do without him. We've known each other even before we turned one.

We did everything together. He was my playmate, first friend, first person to get in trouble with, first date to the school dance, first everything. He's seen me at my best and my worst. He was a part of me.

So when he left, I obviously didn't cope well. I was alone. He was really my only friend. I never thought I would need another one because I had Carter, and Carter never left me.

We tried to keep in touch like IMing and emails and stuff like that but it seemed that Carter was always busy. The Masons didn't visit us in any breaks like Christmas or Thanksgiving. Eventually I just gave up and stopped trying to reach him and he didn't try to reach me. I understood though, well at least I tried. He was probably making new friends and moving on while I was at home crying my eyes out everyday. It was hard to let him go.
