Chapter seven
I stayed in the house for a week, and only let in Cody, when nick called, I let it go to the machine, when he came over to try to talk, I ignored him. I hate him, though I really still love him, but I know he doesn't feel the same way.
It's been 2 weeks since what happened, and nick stopped trying last Friday, I went outside to get the mail, then a car pulled up to my house, a girl walked out.
Selena: um, this isn't nick grey's house is it?
Miley: no, it's the one across the street.
Selena: (laughs) thanks, sorry, just, so hard, they all look the same.
Miley: ya.
Selena: (walks across the street)
Nick: (answers the door)
Selena: Nicky! (Kisses him)
His girlfriend… that's why he acted like I was only a friend, a sister. He had a girlfriend, figures; someone that gorgeous would still have someone as beautiful as her. Then I met eyes with nick, I ran right into the house, forgetting I left the mail scattered on the sidewalk. I called Cody over; he came over and brought in the mail too.
Cody: what happened?
Miley: (crying) he has a girlfriend! This whole time!
Cody: no!
Miley: (nods)
Cody: that jerk! Leading you on.
Miley: I don't think he lead me on. I just think I was thinking way too much of all of this, I can't believe I was so stupid…
Cody: you're not stupid.
I love Cody, but he is horrible at lying. He spent the rest of the day trying to sooth me, and it didn't work all that well.
