Best Friend

That night Kelly couldn't sleep. She looked to make sure everyone was asleep before she went outside to the docks. Kelly didn't see that Daisy was wide-awake. Ezra, who was also restless, went out to the docks and saw Kelly sitting there.

"Is this seat taken?" Ezra asked.

"It is now. Couldn't sleep?" Kelly replied looking at Ezra.

"I'm not tired. What about you?"

"Same. It's beautiful out tonight," Kelly said staring at how the light of the full moon fell on the water.

"Sure is."

"I bet you and Daisy come out here under the moonlight all of the time."

"No, Daisy doesn't go for that kind of stuff."

"Do you love her?" Kelly asked quietly.

"I don't know. I care about her."

"Oh."

"Why do you want to know?"

"Just wondering that's all."

"Did you have any boyfriends after I left?"

"I dated a few guys. I didn't have any long relationships."

"How come?"

"I liked someone else."

"Who?"

"Me? For how long?" Ezra asked shocked.

"Like eighth grade. Why are you suprised that I like you?"

"I don't know. I was crushing on you then too."

"I guess we were both too shy and nervous to tell each other."

"Yeah. Do you still like me?"

"Yeah. When I saw you again those old feelings resurfaced." With that said Kelly leaned over and kissed Ezra. Daisy, who saw the whol thing, ran back into the dorm before she could see Ezra pull away.

"Kel, I'm with Daisy. Those feelings I had for you are in the past. Daisy is the one I want to be with."

"I'm sorry Ez. I don't know what came over me."

"It's ok."

"I hope this won't affect our friendship."

"No, we're best friends forever."

"Well I think I've made a fool of myself enough for tonight. Good night Ezra."

"Good night."

A/N: We're gonn top things there. What's going to happen between Daisy and Ezra? Will they break up? Will Ezra eventually end up with Kelly? Sorry that was such a short chapter. I just thought the other stuff would be better having its own chapter. Thanks again for the reviews.
