I can't tell you how much I appreciate you being here for me, especially after what been through." Carla said to her best friend, who obviously wasn't listening to her (but instead watching a couple walk across the school lawn to the bus). "Andrew are you paying attention to me?" Carla inquired more annoyed than yesterday, when he decided to walk away when she was mid sentence, explaining to him how she'd passed her biology quiz that he didn't help her study for, as he agreed to. "Huh?"Andrew said snapping out of his daze. He had been previously thinking about his ex-girlfriend Izzy. He missed her much he thought his heart might just stop beating any second now, gather its belongings and move on. It was so bad that he couldn't eat, sleep, nor could he focus at school. "Are you alright, 'cause you haven't been acting as though you've been my best friend since way back when." Carla said, recalling the time she'd first seen the boy she'd never expect to take interest in someone like her. At first Carla didn't want to believe it, but now it was seeming more obvious: her best friend wasn't going to be her best friend for much longer. If she didn't do something soon, he would, and she wasn't going to like it.
