Katherine's POV:
I walked into class with Eric. I spotted Clover staring at us as we walked in. I held tighter onto Eric's hand. "Relax." He whispered to me. I should relax, but I felt kinda bad sealing her boyfriend over the weekend. "I just feel really bad," I said.
"Don't feel bad for following your heart." He said.
"That's why you don't feel bad?" I asked. "We would never work out together." He said.
"Why not?" I asked.
"First off we know way too much about each other and we're too alike." He said. "Will she be mad?" I asked.
"Yeah, but as my best friend she'll understand that we were never mean to be." He said. We took our seats and class began. All throughout class, I felt Clover's eyes shoot daggers at me and then she gave Eric a pained expression. She looked so sad and lonely guilt washed over me. "Eric," I said. "What's the matter now?" He asked. "She looks so lonely," I said.
"You feel guilty." He said.
"She has no one. When we broke up I had my friends." I said.
"That was different." He said.
"How so?" I asked.
"I left her because you were what I wanted and I left you because I was scared of what I wanted." He said.
"Eric, we need to talk to her," I said.
"Of it'll make you sleep easier I'll talk to her after class for you." He said.
"Thank you," I said. When the bell rang I gathered my things and went to my locker while Eric stayed back to talk to Clover. I so desperately wanted us to try to be friends because I never meant to break them up or cause her this much pain.
