It was the end of summer, Karma was impatiently waiting for her best friend to come back to her. She missed her, she really did. There she was, standing at that same spot where Amy left her two months ago as memories of that day came rushing back.

"You can tell me that kiss meant something.."

"I can't"

"Have a good summer Karma".

She recalled that conversation every night. Did that kiss mean something? Even if it did, she could never admit it to Amy. It would ruin their friendship, she thought. If anything ever went wrong, they would never be able to come back from it. Amy was her soulmate, she couldn't risk losing her like that.

Karma was sweating now, she was nervous, nervous about having to see her best friend after so much time apart, nervous about how Amy was going to react to Karma surprising her when they had barely talked this whole summer. That's when the bus arrived. She hated that bus so much, and seeing it again made her stomach flip. The bus door opened, and Amy walked out.

Karma's heart stopped right there, she forgot how beautiful her best friend was. She was so happy to see her again, it had been way too long. She just couldn't wait to have Amy in her arms again. She couldn't wait to lie in Amy's bed with her and look at the stars that they put up on the ceiling. She couldn't wait to have her soulmate back. She couldn't wait for it to be just the two of them.

Then her smile faded. Her hopes of having Amy all to herself were gone in an instant. A girl walked out of the bus behind Amy, they were holding hands and being all cuddly. Karma didn't realize how much it would break her heart to see Amy moving on, and especially without letting Karma know that she had a new girlfriend now. A new girlfriend that she was now kissing in front of the bus.

Karma couldn't watch anymore. She was jealous. Amy was hers. No one else could have her, and especially not in that way. Amy was supposed to love her, not some girl she had just met. It was in that moment that Karma realized, she was in love with her best friend. She had been thinking about it all summer. But seeing Amy just completely confirmed it. She was in love with her, she wanted her in all ways possible.

"Karma!" shouted Amy.

Karma snapped out of her thoughts and stood awkwardly, until she was able to get the words out of her mouth: "Hey you".

Amy smiled, just like she always had when looking at Karma, and this time Karma saw it, she saw how adorable it was and how much she loved that smile. Karma walked to Amy and took her in her arms, hugging her tightly.

"I missed you" whispered Amy.

Those three words hit Karma right in the heart. She missed her so much more, it made her miserable all summer long. It was the worst summer of her life. Nothing was the same without Amy. She felt like a huge part of her was missing and she couldn't stand it. She couldn't stand not talking to her, she couldn't stand being away from her. She didn't even think or cared about Liam. No one compared to Amy. Her only friend was Shane this summer, she spent most of her time with him. They would mostly talk about Amy. Shane had always suspected that Karma was hiding her feelings for Amy and wasn't letting herself accept them. He helped her come to terms with them. He was there for her when she was in her worst state because of how empty her life felt without Amy.

"I missed you too" said Karma. If Amy only knew just how much.

Amy's new girlfriend was standing behind her, Amy looked at her and smiled awkwardly, thinking of how to introduce them to each other. She held her girlfriend's hand and made her come closer.

"Karma, this is Lindsay" said Amy.

"Hey" said Lindsay, "so you're the best friend Amy keeps talking about."

"Hi" answered Karma with a faint smile on her face, trying to seem as cool as possible about this whole situation. "I hope you took good care of her during your trip."

"Always" replied Lindsay as she kissed Amy on the cheek and Karma looked away.

They talked for a while about how Amy and Lindsay met and then Lindsay had to say her goodbyes. As soon as she left, Amy smiled at Karma and said:

"My house? We have a lot of things to catch up on."

"What, things like how you got yourself a girlfriend and didn't tell me about it?" said Karma as she laughed, trying not to show how completely heartbroken she was.

"Something like that" answered Amy in a joyful way before putting her arm around Karma. "Come on" said Amy all excited, "Let's go".
