I just want to say that I am SO SO sorry, and the A/N at the end explains it all. Please take time to read it, it is very important! :)

Chapter 16

. "Will, I-" I stared around, desperately thinking of what to do. I couldn't reject him. This was so sweet. But why did it seem like I was only doing this out of pity?

"I-" I tried again, but my mouth felt dry as I fumbled for an answer. "That's my moms car." I blurted out. His brow creased into a frown.

"Kayla?" He said. "Are you going to answer? Will you go to prom with me? I know we had a little disagreement but that's all it was, a disagreement." I wanted to glare at him, but I couldn't bring myself to do it. I took a deep breath.

"Will I-" My voice cracked. "I can't forgive you" I finished in a whisper. He opened his mouth to protest but I cut him off. "I can't promise that I'll go to prom with you. Not after what you did." I said. He frowned and gave me his best puppy dog face. He looked so hopeful and sad that I cracked. I felt like I had to at least give him something. "I can give you another chance though." He smiled and pulled me into a hug. My arms stayed stiff at my sides. He pulled back, keeping me in his arms.

"I knew you'd come through." He beamed. I glared at him and pushed him away.

"I said a second chance, Will." I said sharply. My voice softened as I saw the hurt look on his face. I massaged my temples where a headache was forming. "Look Will, I can't just forgive you in a second because you scattered pink roses," Which I hate by the way. I added silently. "all over my moms car and said you were sorry. It will take a lot more than that to just forget about what you did." I spun on my heels, walking back towards my friends. "Text you later!" I shouted over my shoulder, not looking back. I sighed to myself quietly. What have I gotten into now.

"Are you crazy???!" She shrieked. I sighed. She wasn't taking this too well. I looked away, but when I saw the glare Liam was sending my way i turned back, too stressed to worry about him at the moment.

"No Summer, I'm not. I had to say yes."

"You didn't have to do anything! Why on earth would you give him a second chance?" She demanded, grasping me by the shoulders and shaking me. "You don't even like him!" I frowned.

"That's not true, Summer. I still like him." Her eyes softened.

"I know Kay," She said quietly. "But do you love him?" I slumped into her shoulder, tears prickling the corners of my eyes.

"I- I think so." I sobbed. My life was a mess. And all I could think about was that stupid duck project.

"Come on." Summer said. "Let's get you home." I nodded silently before following her out to her car. I couldn't bear to go back to mine.

My mom stared at me after having me vent to her for about half an hour. I slammed my head down on the table and started to cry. She gathered me into a hug and I stayed there, crying for what seemed like ages, but was probably only a few minutes. She lifted my chin, wiping away the tears.
