Best Friend

Chapter 5

Ashley Pov

I can't believe Caleb kissed and I kissed back and I liked it.. a lot. Oh my gosh I am a horrible cheating girlfriend. What if he finds he'll break up with me. I mean I wouldn't really honestly care he never talks to me. He just kisses me and hugs me only when Caleb's around weird I know but then leaves.I think he's cheating on me but I'm scared to confront him. I haven't told anybody but he has been hitting me lately. I'm scared to tell Caleb because I know he will kill Jake. He got so mad at me one day he punched me in the eye. I wore makeup the next day so Caleb wouldn't notice. He would go crazy if he saw so I had to cover it up somehow. He thinks I love him but I don't I mean I tell him that I do so I won't hurt his feelings. But he has to stop hurting me physically and mentally. I wanna break up with him so bad but I don't know how to do it. I feel like if I do he will just hit me. But what's weird is I think I have feelings for Caleb. Every time we talk or hug I get these butterflies in my stomach. Ashley he's your best friend you can't like him plus you have a boyfriend I think to myself. There's no way Caleb likes me so I'm not going to tell him that I like him because I'm afraid he'll just reject me then stop being my best friend. I can NOT risk not having Caleb I love him he's my everything. I mean I'm just the shy nerd he's my only friend. I mean Caleb could have anybody he's the "bad boy" as everybody in school calls him. All of the girls like him yet he hangs out with me. I really don't understand why he talks to me and not the prettier girls. I'm not even pretty in my opinion I don't know how Jake likes me honestly. I hope I get over this crush on Caleb and I pray and hope Jake stops hitting me.
