Lets Make a Pact

5 - well shit

Celia's POV-

      I almost kissed Jared. I lean against the inside of the main entrance remembering step by step what lead up to the two words I didn't want to say, but at the say time I know I had to. Some people say dating your best friend is the best thing in the world. I'm scared to ruin what we have, since I was 7 we've been best friends hes my ride or die and if I lose him because I go down that route with him I will mentally be lost. We even made a pact that on my sixteenth birthday we would take the chance of dating if we were both single I don't think he remembers that though. 

      I go to my room and take a shower pressing my hands on the cold wall of the showers wall looking at the ground letting the water hit my back while I thought to myself. Thoughts scream at you in silence which is why I normally listen to music in the shower, but my phone died hours ago. I get out and dress myself in a black sports bra and yoga pants. Before I go to bed I normally tell Jared goodnight, so thats what I do. Since we aren't normal teens, I pick up a flashlight leaning on my desk in front of my window flashing the light to the house across the street into the window directly across from mine. He flashes back and I do one of the hand gestures we made up a few years ago like our own secret sign language. He gestures back and smiles before turning toward his wall to what I assume is to shut off his light. I do the same and go to my bed falling to sleep shortly after.

"Celia, Jared is hereee!" I hear my mom yell from downstairs but I refuse to move, big mistake. I can hear Jared running up the stairs and into my room jumping on my bed crushing my body.

"Jesus christ you cow get off me" I groan fakely gasping for air before dramatically going limp.

"Its pure muscle baby" Jared states getting off me sitting in his normal morning seat in my room while he lets me get ready. I laugh and roll out of bed stretching letting the cold air surround before looking at him.

"well then gym rat im going to get ready" I say remembering what happened last time he was watching me get dressed but I go on acting as if everything is normal and not that I wanted him to push me- nevermind. 

"Ill be right here" He reminded before I took out a maroon of the shoulder sweater and a jean skirt with roses embroidered on the back pockets. I turn away from him quickly changing my bra before pulling on my sweater and skirt turning to him again. 

"whatcha think?" I asked adjusting my outfit before folding my hands in front of me. He looks from his phone to me and smiles turning his phone towards me. I pose my hands like lara jean did in the first movie at the first party before he snapped the picture. I turned and looked at my hair fixing it into a messy bun tying a maroon ribbon around it and sliding on my white filas.

"You look great are you ready though I can't be late this is my last year of highschool and Im not going to use it being late" he joked making me pout and walk up to him wrapping my arms around his torso placing my chin on his chest to look up at him. He places his hands on my hips looking down at me.

"How am I going to survive highschool without youuu" I whined before he smirked and kissed my forehead.

"Hey its an even trade I went the first two years without you and your doing the last two without me. Its okay though because Im taking my first two years of college online so I don't have to move yet then when you graduate we can move to California together and attend the university together" He explained easily since that had been our plan since forever, to attend colleges in California. He was already accepted into Stanford.

"Fine," I smiled "we can go now" I say running down the stairs racing him to his vehicle. Of course he catches up with me picking me up and tossing me over his shoulder midway through my yard. He finishes the walk and set me down beside his car leaning towards me to whisper a little 'I win' in my ear making my heart race before I get in his car before he gets to the other side.
