Ashton
She walked over and stood behind a tree. This person was on the top of my hate list right now. I sighed sitting on the lime stone wall that surrounded the playground.

It had to be her mum or Tate... Ugh. It probably was him and he was already at the top of my hate list, if it was he just cemented his spot right up top. I kicked the dirt, digging my feet into the grass. I did this when I was frustrated, I don't even know why. I could hear her half yelling so it defiantly wasn't her mum.

I knew Paris all to well and she absolutely loved her mum to death. The only other person Paris was closest to other than me was her mum. So she wouldn't be shouting at her.

I heard her shout again and it sounded like she was crying. I could always tell when she needed to cry or was crying. I also knew she hated crying in front of anyone except, again me and her mum.

I got up quickly realizing that she was crying. I was debating on going over and seeing her or not. It was obviously a serious conversation cause she was crying so I didn't want to interrupt just Incase it wasn't Tate. But oh if it was and she is crying I'm going to kill him for making her cry. I knew for a fact she hated crying In front of people, the first time she cried In front of me we were 7 years old. She scrapped her knee at school and it was bleeding everywhere. She took me around the corner and told me that she didn't like crying in front of anyone else because she felt like she was weak when she did.

From that day on she only cries to me or her mum and that wasn't often. I always tell her that "crying doesn't make you weak, it only means you've been strong for too long".

I heard the shouting stop and thought I'll just wait till she comes over here. I sat back down and relaxed a bit.

After about 10 minutes she came over and sighed. I got up and wrapped my arms around her. She started to cry again. God dammit.

I pulled away and made her look at me. "Hey, shhh what's wrong?" I asked her not letting go. "Ash I-" she started to cry again. "I've gotta go and see Tate, he's back in Australia and his sister died and he said h-he needs me..." I almost cringed when she said Tate's back. I looked at her for a bit before realizing she said Tate's sister died? I didn't think he had a sister.. I was in his year back at school and I don't remember a sister at graduation.

Tate was also known to be a liar, but no one is sick enough to lie about a death. I cocked my eyebrow at her. "Does he have a sister?" I asked. She just shrugged and nodded her head. The tears started to stream down her face again as I whipped them away with my thumb. "I've gotta go see him..." I sighed and let her go. She stepped back. I nodded by head.

"But ash" I looked at her. "I still need to tell you what I was suppose to say before..." She trailed off "but I'm not sure if it's the right time" she said putting her head down.
"You can still tell me"
"Please don't get angry at me" she said quietly. Oh god what did she need to tell me.
"I'd never get angry at you" I admitted, it was true.
"I um I was suppose to break up with Tate because I-uhhhh I wanted to be w-with you instead cause I realized you mean more to me than anyone and I don't know if you do, but I wanted to be more than friends because that kiss was... Wow. But then Tate told me that he needed me and I don't think I could break up with him just yet because of his sister" she sighed at the end.

I was lost for words. The girl I had liked since I was 7 years old just admitted she liked me! But then she tells me that we can't be together yet because her shitty boyfriends sister passed away. I didn't know what to feel. I didn't know you could feel Happy, angry, fucking amazing and annoyed all at the same time.
"I defiantly wanna be more than friends" I said before anything else. She let out a small laugh and I grinned "I guess I'll just have to wait for you" I said winking. I couldn't help but laugh as she did too.

"Thank you" she said out of the blue. "For what?"
"For always being the person to help me through all of this and turning my upset mood into a good one"
I smiled at her "anything for you" she hugged me so tight I could hardly breath. "I've gotta go" she let go of me "I'll talk to you later" she said before walking away. I couldn't stop grinning. What just happened.
