Hey guys! I'm so so sorry for the lack of updating :\ School's really making me busier. But here's a chapter that I think you'll like :)
Chapter 23 - Destiny’s POV
Sky Amora likes your photo.
I blushed. I uploaded the picture of Cameron and I to Facebook and made it my profile picture. I have to admit, it was pretty stinkin’ adorable.
Caleb Ratteree has sent you a message.
My eyes widened, wondering why Caleb would want to talk. I thought I told him we were done...
C: Hey. We need to talk for a min.
I felt my stomach do a backflip. Be prepared for anything he says!
Me: Sure, what’s up?
C: I think I may still have feelings for you.
I bit my lip. This isn’t good. I already knew this because Ashlyn kept bothering me about it. But for him to admit that to me was just weird and unexpected of him.
Me: Ok. Sorry, but I can’t be with you anymore. I have someone else now.
C: I know, but I still want you to know that if you need anything, I’m here for ya.
Me: kk.
C: If there ever comes a day where we can be together again, I promise I won’t hurt you like I did before :(
Tears filled my eyes after I read that. Knowing Caleb, he wouldn’t break a promise. I was startled that he’s still willing to try it again. However, I was mostly surprised overall since he had the guts to confess this all to me.
Me: :( okay. I’m fine now. Don’t worry about me.
C: Not a day goes by that I don’t think of you. I’ll have you in my heart forever.
Me: I don’t know what to say. I’m sorry, I can’t be with you right now. We just need time.
C: Okay. :( I’ve got to go. Ily Des.
Not knowing what to respond, I waited for him to go offline. When he finally did, I rested my cheek on my hand.
Caleb still likes me alot. Knowing his pain of rejection, I could only imagine what he’s going through. For him to see the picture of Cameron and I probably made him feel worse.
Did I hurt him? The sad image of him burned my eyes. Was I actually ready to end the relationship? Or maybe I still have feelings for him.
I blinked. No, the problem is, I can’t have feelings for him. I’m with someone else. I have to be faithful in this relationship.
Unfortunately, Caleb feels the opposite. But it’s not my fault he was cheating on me. I just wish it hadn’t ended like that.
But that was a mistake. I don’t think he meant to replace me. Knowing him, he’s probably beating himself up for it. I can’t help but pity him a bit.
But what about Cameron? He’s so amazing and makes me very happy. That kiss we had felt like one in a movie. However, his actions and that fight we had makes me unsure if I want to stay with him. He always overreacts when I just talk to other guys! That’s a little insane.
I guess I’ll stay with him a little longer. I don’t see a reason for us to split; he was just being moody, that’s all. It was just a one time thing probably!
