Chapter 13: A Secret

Selena and I couldn't talk after the game so I went to her new house and met her family once again. I remembered them just the way they looked like. I missed them so much, I mean, they are like my second family. I hugged her mom and waved at her step dad. I went upstairs to her room and she was still into the sporty hippie thing.

I opened the door, she looked up and said. "Hey dude". I waved at her and she was typing something on her laptop.

"Selena.." I didn't finish the phrase.

"What?" she looked at me.

"It's just, I don't know if I'm making ideas in my head but.. I know you since we were little and I know when you like something or… someone" I looked down and I could feel the way she was staring at me with some kinda madness in her eyes.

"You mean Nick right?" she answered very serious.

"Well, yeah" I nodded a little shy.

"Well, Demi you really know me. I can't lie to you but the thing is that today I noticed you are very close to this girl Miley so I don't know if I can tell you my things" she replied. I got confused because she didn't even answer my question.

"You didn't answer Selena. You have a crush on him right?" I asked her once again.

"No.." she replied. I felt some relief but then she opened her mouth again and finish the sentence "I have the biggest crush on him" And there she goes with that stupid answer I was afraid off. Now, what am I supposed to do? Tell Miley? Or what?

"I'm telling you this because I trust you and I know you won't tell this girl Miley." she said when she noticed me a little uncomfortable.

I didn't know what to answer. She was definitely one of my best friends but Miley, she has always been there for me.

"But, having a crush is not that serious right? I mean he has a girlfriend who is Miles so you will get over him and it's all done.. . Right?" I said with some insecurity of what she was going to answer.

"I just have four words to tell you: Love is a BATTLEFIELD." I was shocked!. That meant that she was not gonna give up. She was going to try to "steal" Miley's boyfriend.

"I can't believe you just said that. Honestly, I thought you were better than what you are planning to do" I truthfully told her.

"Well, then you don't really know me that much. I think this time we've been separated you changed me a little with that girl. Better, you replaced me. Which it's all good I get that but I just trusted you one of my secrets and I'm expecting you to keep it that way. You have to promise me you won't tell anyone about this conversation we just had" she said without a blink.

I was between a gun and a wall, I think the least I could do was saving that secret right?.

"Okay, I promise" I looked at her really upset.

"I gotta go now" I finished.

"Okay, C'ya tomorrow at school" she smiled to me.

How could she even smile? She definitely has change a lot, this was totally unexpected. I went to my house to clear my mind in a bath tub. I needed to relax after this. I don't know how am I gonna keep this secret.
