Chapter 10
I felt my blood boil as I read the text from Nick "Hey:)" that was it. A simple hey, to most girls they'd freak but not me, not after what happened tonight. I wanted to cuss at him, tell him he's a jerk and I hate him but I know I could never do that.
"So now you want to talk to me?" I wrote furiously tapping away at my phone, I sent him the text and waited for him to respond to my text. I tapped my foot against the wooden floor, the sound distracting me from my thoughts.
"Carlie you okay?" Maggie asked snapping me out of my daze. I looked up from my phone to see all the girls looking at me.
I had completely forgot about them, I looked around the room a little confused to where I was. I completely forgot about everything i was doing before Nick had sent me a text. I looked up at the flat screen tv to see that the movie was paused.
It all clicked and I remembered, we were watching a movie, we got back from icon and decided to end the night with a movie.
"You're not still mad about Nick are you?" Christina asked interrupting my thoughts. Nick, just hearing his voice sent chills down my spine.
"A bit, but yeah I'm fine, I'm just talking to someone" I said shrugging it off and leaning back against the leather black couch.
"Who?" Dodie asked suddenly interested in who I was talking to.
"No one important" I lied just as my phone buzzed indicating I had a new text, I felt my heart race and I quickly checked who the text was from.
Of course it was from Nick "What do you mean?" I read out loud only loud enough for myself to hear. The fact that he had no idea what he did made me want to rip my hair out.
"You ignored me the whole night and when I tried to talk to you, you treated me like shit!" I wrote before sending it to him. The events from tonight played through my mind like it was one big movie.
~"Hey Nick" I smiled as I approached him. He turned away from the girl he was previously talking to and looked at me with no expression on his face. I couldn't tell if he was happy to see me or not.
"Hey" he said coldly, I looked at him confused. It was like he had no idea who I was, I was just another stranger to him. That was impossible, he knows who I am! We had been texting all afternoon.
I turned around to look at the girls who were only standing a few feet behind me, they were confused as well to why Nick was acting like this. I looked at him once again only to watch him turn away and continue talking to the girl in front of him.
She looked at me and laughed a bit before looking at Nick and continuing there conversation. I didn't know what to do except turn around and walk away, so that's what I did. ~
I wanted to cry just thinking about it, I had never been that humiliated. Not even the time when Becca Freeman spilled her orange juice on me in front of my 8th grade crush, and that was pretty bad.
I read the recent text he had just sent me to myself "Listen Carlie, that girl I was talking to, that was my ex. She doesn't play around, if she knew about us talking she'd make up rumors saying we were dating. She's done it before, I didn't want that to happen again. Let me make it up to you, text me your address and meet me outside your house at 1am"
I thought about it for a while, what's the worst that can happen, other than my parents finding out I snuck out nothing bad can happen right? I thought about it for a while "Fine" I finally answered.
He replied about two minutes later leaving me confused "One last thing.... don't tell your friends" I didn't bother asking questions. I was too busy thinking about how Nick was "gonna make it up to me" just like he said he would. I just couldn't figure out why I couldn't tell the others.
"Hey, let's go to bed early, I don't want to spend the next day sleeping, I wanna have fun" I lied. I had to figure out a way to sneak out without anyone knowing, my best option would be if they were asleep.
They were all confused at first but went along with it, we turned off the movie and went up to our rooms. Now all I had to do was stay awake for an hour until Nick got here.
