[Her Smile Chapter 4]
I dialed again, the phone rang, and rang, and rang, but it just went right to:
"Yo, you've reached Princess Puckett and I don't want to talk to you, so stop calling me!" I sighed, gliding my finger against the touch screen of my phone and shoving it in my pocket.
"it's been three days" I shook my head, sitting down as Carly scooted to the other side of the couch awkwardly, looking at the TV. again and taking a piece of her popcorn, then setting the bowl down.
"I tried calling her mom, but all I got was 'Stop calling me, she doesn't wanna talk to you!' she mimicked Sam's mom's voice and I chuckled at her face, then inhaled, laying back a bit.
"I can't believe this happened" I groaned, my palm resting over my eyes, my arm laying by my side.
I felt Carly's small hand rest in mine, holding it tightly as she looked at me.
"It'll be alright" I sat up and looked at the serious expression on her face. She was dead serious, but with sincerity. She leaned in and I hesitantly leaned in two, our lips brushed and I pulled back, frustrated, I stood.
"No!"
I shook my head rapidly, moving throwing my arms in the air.
"Carly I swear I can't do this anymore, I don't love you, okay? Never did! What I thought was love was just…you were so perfect, and I thought that's how it was suppose to go…suppose to..to get the pretty popular girl, have 20 friend, ya know…live on the normal teenage life.." I sighed softly, catching my breath and looking at her.
"And then, I just realized that I'm not normal…so this can't happen" I frowned.
"I miss my blonde headed demon" I whispered, and her eyes widened, then she stood up.
"So your breaking up with me…again…but I love you-"
"But I don't love you!" I told her harshly, yet so calm you wouldn't think of it as a threat.
She lowered her head, I could tell she was crying, and it hurt, because she was my friend, to know I made her cry.
"Listen I really am so-"
"no it's okay…Right now, the only thing important is getting ahold of Sam, and sitting down and straightening things out" she rubbed her eyes, and wrinkled her nose.
"Right" I smiled.
"I knew you'd understand"
[With Carly]
I smiled back.
"okay, I'll text Sam and try to keep her distracted, her mother goes out on Friday nights drinking so you'll be able to get in no problem, just be careful" he nodded, waving and going out the door. I heard the knob click and I collapsed to my knees, hugging them to my chest, tears running down my cheeks and I sobbed, trying to be quiet so I wouldn't wake Spencer from his nap.
'This is stupid…I shouldn't be crying…I knew all along that this would happen…I'm happy…I am….it just hurts'
I ran a hand threw my head, leaning back against the chair with my head back.
'a lot'
I groaned, and slapped myself in the face, then sighed, taking a deep breath.
"I'm doing this for Sam" I whispered, taking out my phone.
