Chapter 14:

It's On

Carter POV

Four days after the 'go-cart fiasco' found me practically begging Sonny to be with me. Part of my felt like she wanted this. The other part of me felt like she was just doing this to see how pathetic and desperate, for a lack of better words, I was to be with her. I definitely liked her, but after trying as hard as I have been for the past few days, I kind of felt like this trying to win her over was a lost cause. I have literally tried everything. From showing up at her house with flowers, to telling her how beautiful she looked every time I saw her; nothing seemed to work. I had a few more tricks up my sleeve before I decided to give up completely.

I still had to 'get rid' of Vanessa too. I mean, technically we're not dating; but every time we see each other, she kisses me and won't leave me alone. Had I not been interested in Sonny, I probably would be dating Vanessa and totally into how hands-on she was. But, I am interested in Sonny...and I'm definitely not enjoying whatever me and Vanessa have.

"Can we talk?" I asked Vanessa. We were at lunch, sitting at our usual spot. Well, it was usual for Sonny, Mitchie, Alex, and I...not so much Vanessa after this.

Mitchie looked at me knowingly...I could tell she wasn't really listening to whatever Alex was talking about, she was paying more attention to me and my soon-to-be ex.

"Sure thing babe." I inwardly cringed at that.

"Listen," I started once we were out in the hallway, alone, "I really like you, but...not the way that you like me."

"I don't like you Carter."

"And I know that we have been dating for a while...wait, you don't?" This may turn out better than I had planned.

"I don't like you Carter," She repeated. "I love you."

And there it is. The disappointment of getting my hopes up. Oh God, this is not what I expected. I was just about to break it all off, and she hits me with this! Oh shit, what do I do? I can either run, lie, or be an asshole.

"That's the thing." I guess I'm going to be an asshole. I think I should try to go for the nice asshole,"I don't love you."

"What?" She croaked. Fuck, I grabbed her hands in mine and looked her in the eyes. My thumbs were rubbing her hands soothingly.

"I. Don't. Love. You. You're a great person, but I'm not into whatever this is anymore."

"Who is it?" She pulled her hands away fast.

"Sonny." I said guilty while breaking my eye contact and looking at the floor.

"You're a bitch you know that?" I had to laugh at that. She really didn't have a right to call me a bitch after everything she's put me through.

"Says the girl that breaks up with people over text."

"That's nothing compared to what you're doing." What is this girl even talking about?

"What the fuck am I doing? Being an honest person? I'm saving you from disappointment later on."

"No, breaking up with me on our year anniversary," Shit. I totally forgot, "literally seconds after I told you I love you."

"And I told you I don't."

"And if you're trying to save me from disappointment, maybe you should of thought about that before."

At that she walked away. I couldn't believe how bitchy I was being. But, I kinda felt good to not be tied to her after a year. I shook my head and walked back into the cafeteria.

I wasn't even dating her anyway. So, I guess I don't care. Yeah, I don't care.

I sat back down next to Sonny and she just smiled at me. I have a feeling she may know what just happened.

"What are you doing tonight?" Mitchie asked me with her mouth half full.

"Damn babe, chew your food." Alex scolded her.

"Umm whatever you guys are doing?" It was sorta obvious that's what I would be doing especially now that I'm not 'seeing' Vanessa.

"Aren't you gonna hang out with Vanessa?" She looked kind of irritated. Ugh, this bitch.

"No. Why would I hangout with her?" She did a spit take with her tea.

"Do you not know what today is!? You guys have been together for a year!" She was making a scene. She knew what was going on!

"I know, umm well I just kind of found that out when I ended it." I said quietly.

"No way! You ended it with her? Carter c'mon! Don't joke like that!" She said grabbing her sandwich and taking a bite. I decided I would tell her once she's done chewing. I don't want another spit take, especially with her food.

"I'm not joking. I took her in the hallway to talk, um...she said something, and I just told her I wasn't into it anymore." I shrugged.

"She told you?" I'm guessing Mitchie knew what Vanessa told me. Shit, maybe that's why she looked like she knew what was going on earlier...she probably didn't realize that I was breaking up with Vanessa.

"She told me a few things." I nodded.

"No, like she told you something she never said before?" She asked. I really didn't want to go back and forth when eventually Alex and Sonny would find out anyway.

"Oh my God, she told me she loved me!" I barely let Mitch finish her sentence.

"Oh God! Carter what exactly happened?" I told her a full recap of what happened in the hallway, with the exception of the part about Sonny. She wasn't really surprised. She knew that Vanessa was going to tell me, and she kinda had the hint I would end it. What surprised her the most was the fact that I was perfectly fine. I wasn't upset by any of this. I think it may have to do with the fact that I like Sonny, and my chances with her are a little better now. At least I can flirt with her and not feel guilty about it. Ooh and maybe I can steal a few kisses. Not that, that ever stopped me before.

Sonny looked at me and smiled. Well, I guess making a move right now couldn't hurt. I reached my hand into her lap, where her hands were. I gently snuck my hand in between both of hers and intertwined our fingers. Her expression, her conversation, nothing, changed; and I loved that. Sonny actually let me hold her hand.
