You never said anything (Caleb Danvers love story)
Chapter 1
I do not own The Covenant in any way. Inspired/title borrowed from You never said anything by Steven Strait (the guy who plays Caleb)
"Sis! C'mon!" Reid yelled.
"I'm coming!" I yelled back. I slid down the banister and landed next to my older brother. "Told ya I was coming", I said.
Dad dropped us off at the dells.
"Where were you?" Tyler asked, "Stopped by to give you a lift".
"It's my fault guys", I said, "I took too long getting ready".
"Well… let's get down there", Reid said jumping off the cliff.
Tyler fell backward off the cliff and I did a back flip off the cliff.
Pouge and Caleb soon joined us.
We walked down to the party.
"Hey Kate!" Caleb said.
"Caleb", Kate said. Kate had a blonde girl with her.
The blonde girl looked Caleb up and down.
My blood boiled.
Tyler put his hands on my neck from behind and whispered in my ear, "Stop. Your hair was starting to float".
"Guys, this is Sarah. Sarah this is Caleb Danvers, Tyler Simms, Pouge Parry, and Reid and Elizabeth Garwin", Kate said.
"I'm feeling a bit tired Reidy boy. Mind calling dad?" I asked.
Caleb looked at me, but I avoided eye contact.
"It was nice meeting you Sarah, but…I have to go", I said running off.
When we got back to the dorms, Reid asked, "What was that?"
I turned away from him and tears left my eyes. "I like Caleb. I've always liked him. This year was my year to snatch him. Then some blonde comes and ruins it all", I seethed, "Why can't I be like you Reid?" I turned and faced him. "Blonde and gorgeous, but no! I got plain brown hair!" I yelled.
Tyler entered the room.
I fisted my hands in my hair, wishing I could rip my hair from my scalp.
Tyler walked over to me and put his hands on my mine and his forehead on my forehead. He untangled my hands from my hair and said, "Don't ever say that about yourself. If Caleb can't see that you're right in front of him, then he doesn't deserve you".
I smiled and managed a small laugh.
"Why don't you go get cleaned up?" he suggested.
All I could do was nod.
He kissed my forehead and I left the room to go take a shower.
*Reid's Pov*
"Thanks for that, man", I said.
"Anytime. She really is a gorgeous girl. I just wish she could see that for herself", Tyler said.
"Maybe you could help her. You're the smart and sensitive one and you yourself have struggled with your self esteem", I suggested.
"I could do that", he said, "I knew there was a reason I'm becoming a psycho therapist".
I laughed and hoped that he really could help my sister.
