The weird thing is that nothing really happened right after that. In fact, the next few weeks were the best of my life. I tried really hard to forget about Heather and her stupid revenge, but deep down inside?
I was scared.
And I was getting a little antsy. Casey had been acting really weird lately. Like yesterday, we were hanging out at the mall and all of a sudden he had to leave. Like he had somewhere better to be. He tried to hide it, but I saw through it. Weird.
But the good part was that Grams got a new computer. She let me set up an email so Casey and I could email each other. He would send me all of these funny pictures and jokes. I would send him some, too.
Today I checked my email and Casey had sent me this message:
Hey Sammy,
Meet me at the mall near the big elevator at 2 tomorrow.
Love,
Casey
What was there to lose? Its not like I could do anything else around hear except knit sweaters with Grams or something.
So the next day, I set off to the mall.
And when I got to the big elevator, did two things to me.
First, I was completely startled.
Second, I think my heart ripped in half.
Because hidden sort of behind the plant, there was Casey.
Kissing Carrie Stevens.
(a/n Carrie Stevens is a girl in Sammy's grade who I made up.)
