It's been a few weeks since that accident happened with Cole and Jackson. After that day I tried ignoring both boys but I gave into Jackson a few days after than Cole 2 days after I forgave Jackson. I was really mad at both of them because one I not someone you can own, two Jackson had no right to say I was off limits.   After they both apologized not only to me but each other everything went back to normal. I had told Cole it's better if we just stayed friends. Not because i didn't like him but because it was better for me,   I thought I liked him like that but I was wrong. I don't have feeling towards Cole what so ever. Anyways todays Monday. As usual got up got dressed and left. Once I arrived I went straight to school since I was a little bit late.

"Late to class Ms.Jones, I don't want this happening again." Mr. Jonson says

"Sorry Sir it won't happen again" I say and make my way towards my seat.

I look over to Jackson since him and I have the same English class as well. I look over to him and his nodding his head. I stick my tongue out at him like a little 4 year old.

Once class ended I went straight to my other class hoping soon lunch will come. Once my first few classes ended I ran to the cafeteria I was starving since I didn't eat all day. I sat down at my usual table today but I was weird because usually aria is here already or Caden. But there was no one. Then I hear Jackson come behind me.

"Aw someone's all alone" he says

I glare at him

"Ohhh someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed today?" He says

"Shut up" I say

"Gosh ok" He says and sits down By me

"What's wrong princess?" He says

"Nothing"
"No something's wrong"

"Really Jackson I'm fine" I say completely lying

"Carter I know you well enough to know something wrong" he says

"I'm just...I don't confused about a lot of things" I say

"Like What?" He says

"Like for instance my....math homework last nights was a pain in my-''

"For real Carter"

"Ok ok...just like..ok so..uhhh I don't know" I say

"Do you need time" he says

"No...Caden's keeping something from me and it's killing me" I say letting everything out

"What?! What do you mean" he ask

"Yeah what do you mean Carter?" I turn at and see Caden...Shit.. I quickly get up

"Caden I didn't mean it like-''

"Why would you think I'm hiding something from you" He ask giving me that look like " you can't even believe me" look

"Caden...your hiding something from me that's important to me...I know it..but you won't tell me" I say

"Carter your literally my best friend why in the world would I keep something form you?"

"I don't know" I say kinda like I'm whining

"Carter trust me when I say...I'm not hiding anything from you" he says reassuring me
