I wasn't the most open person in the world. I hated talking to anyone about my feelings, especially if it concerned the person that was asking. Cody was my best friend/turned co-star and I wouldn't want to change anything between us. Except for him having a girlfriend. Ever since they started dating, she's been nothing but rude to me and Cody's barely talked to me. She was only nice to me in front of him and he doesn't even know it.



"Hey Cody, can I talk to you really fast? Privately?" I asked. He nodded and got up, giving a quick kiss to his girlfriend, and following me into my bedroom. "What did you wanna talk about?" He asked, turning to look at me. "I know you're gonna hate me for saying this when I have no proof but..you're girlfriend is a real bitch." I said. "Well your right, I don't appreciate you saying that about her. She's been nothing but nice to you and as my best friend you should support me with all my decisions not matter what." he said. "I do support your decisions. But not when you're letting your girlfriend come between us. What happened to that?" I asked. "Nothing has changed Y/N." He said. "Are you serious? You barely talk to me anymore! We used to talk every single day. Don't you dare say your busy because even when you were busy you talked to me." I said, crossing my arms.

"She has been nothing but nice to you since I've introduced you two." he said. "Cody you aren't always around! Yesterday you know what she told me? She told me that she doesn't want me to talk to you anymore and if I continued there would be consequences. If she loved you she wouldn't try and control who your friends with and who you aren't friends with. We've known each other for 4 years Cody." I said. "You are being so selfish right now! Maybe she's right. Maybe I shouldn't be friends with you anymore. I can't believe it took me this long to figure it out! I hate you!" he yelled, storming out of my house with his girlfriend. Only when I knew he was gone did I let my tears flow freely down my cheeks. In all the years I had known Cody, I never thought he'd give up our friendship for some bimbo who didn't appreciate him. One might say that I had a crush on him, and they'd be right. I've liked him for over a year now and I wanted to tell him but of course as soon as I gather the guts to do it, he finds someone. Don't get me wrong, she's very pretty. Well, prettier than me anyway. So I can't really be that surprised that he chose her over me.

For the next few weeks I cried myself to sleep every night and barely left the house. Everyone but Cody has come to check on me.

One day I woke up and decided that I couldn't live like this forever. So, I called Holland and Shelley and we decided to have a girls day. We went shopping and had some lunch at a small cafe around the corner from the shopping plaza. We talked about life and how we should get out more often together and go out one night this week for some drinks.

When I got home around 5, I walked in the door closing it behind me and went up to my bedroom to put away the new things I had bought. Just as I was putting the last of my stuff away, I heard a knock on the door. I walked down stairs, and looked out the peep-hole on my door. When I knew who it was, I opened the door and saw a very depressed Cody.

"Cody? What are you doing here?" I asked. "I needed to see you." he said stepping past me into my house. "What did you need?"I asked, closing the door and turning to face him. "I wanna know if what I feel is real." he said. "Well, what are you fee-" I was interrupted by Cody pressing his lips to mine in a lustful yet passionate kiss. I placed my hands on his chest and he pulled away. "Cody I-I thought you were with..." "I broke it off with her last week." he said, grabbing my hands. "Why? You guys were so good together. I mean, she was good enough to replace me." I said, pulling my hands out of his. "What?" he asked. "Cody, do not play dumb with me. Do you remember the last thing you said to me before you abandoned me for her? Do you?" I asked. He shook his head. My eyes began to water and I looked at him. "You told me you hated me." I said. My voice cracked and my tears began to flow freely down my face. "Y/N I-you know I didn't mean that." "Well at the time, you did. You told me that you hated me and that I was being selfish and that you shouldn't be friends with me anymore because she said so. I thought it was a joke but when you didn't call I knew you didn't care anymore. So I tried to stop caring too." I said. 

At that moment Cody looked up at me with tear filled eyes. "Oh, so you don't feel what I do..be-between us?" he asked. "Well ya see, when i started to try and not care about you...I realized something. I realized that what I felt for you before you left me, was stronger than ever." I smiled. "So, you do feel the same?!" he asked, his eyes lighting up. "Of course I do dummy. That's why I was so hurt when you barely came around." I said. He rushed over and scooped me into his arms. "I am so sorry, I promise I will never leave you again. I love you." he said, placing me back on my feet. I giggled and looked at him. "I love you too." I smiled, kissing him again.
