I don't know why I'm sleeping with Carter. I've just missed him I guess.
I forgave him because he's my best friend and no matter how bad he messed up he always will be. I don't know if I want to get back together with him be he did hurt me, but I don't want to regret not forgiving him because life's to short.
I am still mad at him and maybe I always will be, but I have to try move past this and just see what happens.
It's around 9:00 I think and Carter and I are still sleeping.
His arms are around me, cradling me tightly.
I move ever so slightly and he moves.
"Carter we have to get up." I whisper.
"No." He says hugging me tighter.
"We have to." I say trying to get out of the bed.
"No stay here, 5 more minutes." He grumbles.
"Come on Carter." I say pulling myself out.
"You suck."
"I know."
When we walk out of the hotel room we look at the back of the truck trunk and see Heather and Ethan close together sleeping silently.
"Heather." I say.
"Yeah?" She says in a sleepy voice. "Oh hey you guys ready to go?"
"Yeah we both say."
"Ethan, babe." She taps him.
"HUH what's wrong?" He says waking up quickly.
"Nothing ready to go?"
"Oh yeah mhmm."
"Okay Carter is going back with you."
"Okay sounds good."
Carter and I just glance at each other and go our separate ways.
"So how was it?" Heather asks me.
"It was good. I forgave him."
"So you guys are a couple again?"
"No."
"Oh. Just don't rush things Anchor you deserve the best."
"Thanks Heaths. And I know I'm not sure if anything more than a friendship with happen with us. To be honest."
"Good thinking."
When I get home I throw my stuff down on the ground and lay down on my bed and turn my tv on.
Thank receive a text.
<from Carter> hey
<to Carter> hey.
<from Carter> so should we talk about last night?
<to Carter> look I forgave you and I just missed you and wanted to touch you again. but I don't know if I'm ready to be a couple again.
<from Carter> okay. how ever much time you need Anchor.
<to Carter> I just need things to go very slow now.
<from Carter> anything. I just want you back.
<to Carter> I know.
<from Cater> we'll go as slow as you need. I want to prove to you that I am the one and I am faithful.
<to Carter> I know. hey listen I have to go. I'll see you tomorrow.
<from Carter> okay bye Anchor.
<to Carter> bye.
I don't know what to do to be honest.
Carter and I have been through a lot and Carter alone has been through a lot and I was always there for him and I always will be, but right now he has more feelings for me than I do. I mean I love him and I know that, but I'm not ready to jump back into things.
He has to prove to me that he's worth the wait and worth the thoughts at night before I go to sleep.
He has to prove to me that he's the guy I fell in love with 2 years ago, or else we never will have a happy ending.
