If You Dare To Believe

chapter 12

"Oh okay I was an idiot and I'm really sorry" he said a little bit louder.

I still looked still not looking at him, he sigh loudly.

"Look, I know you probably think I'm a douche form what you heard. But Avery I really like you" he said grabbing my hands gently and looked straight through my eyes.

"I made a mistake" he said giving that puppy dog eyes.

I looked away, "Look Evan, I don't think I can take all of that attention" I said softly and I felt his eyes stare at me.

"I don't really think...it would work" I couldn't look him in the eyes because I know I will feel guiltily.

He stayed quit and then finally said "This isn't about yesterday" I quickly looked at him.

"It's about that kid Joey" he said in a soft tone, I expected him to be pissed or annoyed but he wasn't.

He's right, I mean I could have forgiven him if Joey haven't kissed. Because now that Joey have kissed me and made me...made me fall for him.

I never felt like this towards anybody I ever met, don't get me wrong, Evan is sweet but Joey was real, Joey brought out me. Didn't see me as Dakota sister or new chick in school he saw Avery, the girl that has been living under a shadow that no one ever notice. Not even my own friends.

"Yes" I finally said after a long silence, he sigh annoyed.

"I'm sorry Evan" I looked at him apologetically, he stood still and then I saw a curve on the edge on his mouth, it was a smile.

"Well maybe I don't have you now I still believe I can get you" he smiled and I laughed.

"Till then, friends" he said cocking his eyebrows and looking at me so innocently.

I smiled; I couldn't believe that Evan is going to be so cool about it.

"Yeah" I said giving him a hug.

"Thank you" I whispered in his eras and I felt him smirk.

"Now will you tell me why on earth doing awake this early" I said and he laughed.

"I woke with a killer headache by midnight and I couldn't sleep then so I was just driving around and I found you." He said and I nodded,

"So I got go now, see you around" I said opening the door and he waved.

I walked as the parking lot got crowded; I held my bag harder when I felt someone pulling me. I look back and it was Jay.

"Hey" I greeted nicely.

"Care to explain what the fuck happened yesterday?" he said, I knew he was pissed.

"Where is Shyann?" I asked avoiding the question.

"She couldn't come because she has a killer headache do not avoid my question." He said seriously.

"Okay okay, chill" I said and I explained what happened excluding what happened with Joey. I didn't want anyone to know about that not until I confront Joey.

"You are not the only who had a bad night" Jay said still angry.

"What happened?" I asked, we walked to his locker.

"Tracy kissed me" he said and I swear my jaw dropped.

"WHAT?" I almost shrieked.

"Keep it down" he whispered angrily.

"I don't know what happened she just leaned in front and kissed me and I..." he stopped looking away.

"What Jay?" I asked looking directly at him.
