Quicksand
Chapter 22
authors note : Thank you my readers. The friend group know that Lucas is dating someone but they've never actually met her.
Thought I saw a sign, somewhere between the lines.
Maybe it's me, maybe I only see, what I want.
, just got caught between
Someone I just invented, and who I really am
"We should make this a regular thing we do."
"Hanging out. Alone or not. As long as you're there."
"I'll be apart of it. Would you want to try that.?" Lucas questioned. Once they reached the parking lot.
"I think us not being in each other's lives doesn't work."
"We've shared and gone through enough."
"That our bond and connection will never really go away."
"No matter how much we may want it too." Brooke replied.
"I wouldn't want you out of my life. Long term if ever."
"You're too important to me." Lucas stated matter of fact.
"I feel the same way." Brooke replied.
Before getting into her car and driving away.

"You got detention. And got sent to the same room where she is."
"That is smart. Look at you."
"You do know that means you're going to have to talk to her right.?" Ivey Taylor questioned.
Ellison looked to his best friend. "I'm still figuring out what i'm going to say. I mean beyond why we got sent there what do we talk about.?" He asked.
Ivey was the only child Antwon Taylor and Bevin Mirskey.
She had mom's blond hair and brown eyes. And thin figure.
She also had her dad's basketball talent and mom's quirkiness.
"You over think everything. Relax and just be yourself." She advised.
...
"I can't be with you if you're going to stay friends with Brooke. This history. Its too much for me to handle."
"The stories. Memories. All of it. I didn't show up because i didn't want to feel like a third wheel." Lindsey explained.
Once Lucas drove over to her house.
