Dance In The Rain

Chapter 25

Sam.

I went home a happy women. Me and Kim had resolved everything, we both decided to take baby steps in our relationship and I couldn't be happier that Kim is giving us a chance.

I reached home to find Marcus eating away a packet of crisp and watching 'American dad' "Hey Sam! Where have you been? Lisa keeps calling to check up on you. You should call her." I nodded going to my room. I closed the door and sat in bed getting ready for a pissed off Lisa. "YOU DIDN'T CALL LIKE YOU SAID YOU WOULD!" I had to take my phone out of reach from my ear so I wouldn't go deaf "I'm sorry..." she interrupted me again "YOUR SORRY! Well sorry isn't enough, I was so worried and I've been missing you so much and clearly you haven't been missing me." She was right I was being a shitty friend making her worried "I know. It's just so much has been happening... Lis me and Kim are working things out..." I stopped speaking for a second to see if she would say anything back but she didn't "... she never got married." I waited and waited for her to say something but at the end she just told me she would call me back tomorrow and hanged up.

Lisa.

It happened so fast. "Hey, hey are you okey." Carol asked worried, I ignored her and went to lock myself inside the bars office but Carol's foot stopped me from shutting the door "what Carol?" I regretted saying that as soon as I saw Carols face, she was hurt and because she was hurt she just left without a word.

I woke up to find out I had slept in the bar's office sofa. Getting myself refreshed, I then closed up the bar and started to walk towards where my car would be, that's when I saw Carol leaning against my car with a serious face on. "Carol. What you doing her so early?" I wanted to say sorry for how I acted yesterday but I couldn't "just came to pick up the bars keys, early shift tomorrow." She said shortly, she sounded like she was done talking to me so I gave her the keys and watched her turn around and walk to her car 'Carol has never acted this way towards.'

I followed her not liking the way she was acting, it just didn't feel right. "Carol. I'm sorry about yesterday." I said finally but instead of smiling and hugging me like she usually does she just gave me a short answer "okey, I need to go." But I stopped her, shes was being annoying and I didn't like it. "Why you acting like this?" I said feeling my anger rise "Just because I'm not following you around like a lost puppy in love doesn't mean I'm not okey." She ended the conversation as soon as she got in her car and left me their disbelieved on what just happened.

Carol was being an annoying Lil shit, she hasn't been picking up my calls like she always does or replying to me as soon as I text her. I'm worried sick about where she might be, I've been to her house but she isn't there either 'where are you.'  I decided to call her again and she picked up on the 100th called "where are you?! I've been worried sick about you!" I could hear her laugh a little which is good, that's means she's not as pissed "I just needed some time away from you." I was confused and angry "why?" I knew why, Carol always had been opened about her feelings towards me, I just ignored them because of Sam. "You know why. Maybe it's time for me to move on. Maybe you can be my wing man." For some reason the thought of Carol moving on didn't sit well with me and the thought of her finding a girl just made me extremely angry 'why.' But I agreed anyways, I told her we should go clubbing today and I would help her find someone to take home with if she wanted too. I just had to ignore these weird feelings  having.

Carol.

After the call with Lisa I had made up my mind on actually moving on. It wasn't healthy for me to still let my heart be in love with her when her heart belonged to someone else. Yes I've loved Lisa sense we were kids, we've know each other sense we were toddlers, our mothers and fathers were the best of friends so we had grown up together. We went to the same kinder-garden and the same high school. We fell apart when she decided to move to a far university instead of keeping her promise to go the same one as I, but I never hated her for that, I supported her.

We would call each other everyday, we would FaceTime so I could see her beautiful face. And one day when we had called each other I had mentally prepared myself to confess to her about my feelings and I did. I told her how I fell in love, when and what I wanted to happened which was for us to give it a go. I wasn't expecting for her to tell me she loved me too but it hurt me when all she said was that "she would call me tomorrow" but that phone call of tomorrow never came. Hours I wanted that day for her to call me but she never did. I tried calling her but she never picked, I kept calling her for weeks until her mother had asked me if I had Lisa new number or had Lisa forgotten to give it to me but I knew she didn't forget, she just didn't want to tell me anything.

So after that I texted her from her social media not wanting her to get annoyed with by having her new number but she didn't respond either.

And now we're here. After university I had went back home to see my family to congratulate me for graduation and I saw her, she had come to my party my parents had made.

And it just happened.
