Only one rumor was true (dixison)

It's for the best Addison

Addison POV

I watch as Dixie finishes up track and walks towards me with a red sweaty face. She looked kinda hot though.
"I'm going to go have a shower and I'll met you at my car" she says walking past me. It hurt seeing her act cold towards me again. After everything we have done. I sigh walking away and through the parking lot. I find Dixie's car almost immediately. It's always easy to find someone's car when they have there number plate as there name.

I lean against her car when I see Bryce walking towards his car. He turns his head and see me. He smiles and jogs over to me.
"Hey Addison what are you still doing here?" I swallow hard.
"Hi Bryce, nothing really just waiting for someone" he looks down at the ground.
"I didn't see you at the party, I was actually looking forward to hanging out with you outside of school" I frown as he shyly looks up at me.

"I'm sorry Bryce I wasn't feeling well and just went home. Maybe I can make it up to you?" I say and he smiles.
"Well...do you maybe want to go on a date with me?" I was a little taking aback but still managed to give him a smile.
"Can I think about it?" He nods his head.
"Okay" he says when I suddenly see Dixie walk towards us. She looked between Bryce and I and something changed in her eyes. She looked mad.

"Am I interrupting something?" She asks coldly. Bryce looks at her and still smiles.
"I was just leaving don't worry Dixie" she huffs and looks at me with the same cold eyes before getting into her car and slamming the door shut. I look at Bryce.
"I'm sorry about her" he shakes his head.
"Don't worry about it Addison" he walks away and I look at his back for a moment before turning around and look at Dixie inside the car.

"Get in" she mouths and I sigh before walking around the car and getting into the passengers seat. I close the door and we both fall silent. I breath in and out.
"Dixie can you please explain to me what I saw in that book"
"Do you like Bryce?" She asks and I look at her. She was staring straight ahead.
"That's not what I asked Dixie" she looks at me her eyes filled with sadness.
"Please tell me" I say softly and she sighs.

"Do you have it?" I ask and she closes her eyes.
"I don't know" I look at her as she hangs her head low.
"But my sister does" so she does have a sister.
"I was three when my sister was born everything went perfect until everything came crashing down. She couldn't breath properly and they had to put her on a breathing machine. It was a month later when they told my parents that she had cystic fibrosis...." I look down.

"Cystic fibrosis is a rare disease that effects the lungs and digestive tract. Sometimes people can only be diagnosed with it when they are older but some get it when they are a baby like my sister. Luckily I didn't have it but I might get it when I'm older" she says as I look up to see her crying softly.
"Dixie I'm so sorry" I say as she wipes her face.
"I tired to help out as much as I could but I was only a child back then.....when my sister was 5 and I was 8 we were both playing outside and it got to much for her....she started coughing and crying cause she couldn't breath. I rushed inside to get my parents and we all rushed her to the hospital. It got worse that day and they had to keep her in hospital for 2 weeks" she says as she begins to cry harder.

"It was my fault....I was suppose to make sure that she was okay....it was my job to make her feel safe and I failed at that one stupid thing" she slams her hand against the steering wheel before leaning her head against it crying.
"Dixie it's not your fault"
"It is Addison" I slowly put my hand on her back. We stay quiet as I soak up all the information. I didn't know what to say. I was lost for words, all that pain her family must be going through. Dixie must be hurting.

"You're the only one I've ever told that" she says sitting up and looking at me.
"No one else knows expect for Charli's best friend and...you" I look into her eyes.
"Thank you for trusting me" I say giving her a small smile. I look down.
"Do you think you might get it?"
"Probably" I suck in a deep breath and slowly look up at her with my own eyes tearing up.
"Please don't tell anyone" I nod my head.
