"What?!" I say with attitude
"Carter can we just please talk," he asks
I think it's safe to say that I didn't care at all at this point anything he said I didn't care it couldn't make a difference in what I thought about him. I was down with him.
"There's Nothing to talk about Caden," I say
"Look I'm so-'' I cut him off
"Stop apologizing Caden it won't fix anything. I already know what I think about. What you say won't change a thing." I say
"Carter...I don't understand."
"What is there to understand Its simple. I'm done being your friend." I say and lean against my door frame.
"Carter look I know I kept it a secret and I'm sorry. I know I messed up. I know I failed you. I know that just lost my best friend. I know that you're mad at me. I know that your disappointment in me. I know that you and I will never be friends again. And I can't help but worry because I went to you for everything. You were there for me at the darkest times and at the happiest times and I was there for you.
Carter I can't just let our friendship fall apart like this. You can't just let go of me that fast. I know I can't. So please Carter I'm not asking for forgiveness because I know I screwed up big time. But please rethink the decision of being my friend...I can't lose you too."
"Caden you messed me up bad and I like you said you don't forgiveness even if asked I probably wouldn't forgive you. But I don't think I can be your friend. I can't look at someone that lied to me for years knowing that my dad was a cheater this whole time. I can't look at someone who consistently stabbed me in the back. Every time I asked you can I trust you..you said yes..why'd you lie?!"
"Oh because I didn't wanna lose you," I said mocking him
"Oh but you already lost Me," I say mocking myself
"I don't Caden were done...Goodbye" I say and walk back inside as soon as I'm about to close my door he sticks his hand out.
"Caden Move your hand!" I say
"Carter please"
"Dude hear yourself. Stop."
He looked at me like I broke his heart which I probably did. But I didn't care because he broke him.
"Carter please I can't lose you," he says with tears in his eyes.
"I'm sorry Caden...But You've done enough for today" I say and close the door.
I headed up to my room and had forgotten that I had made myself some sandwich but I was to darn lazy and wasn't that hungry anymore...Caden ruined my appetite.
(Next day)
I woke up drained of energy. I still couldn't believe that Caden lied to me for so many years. I was heartbroken but at the same time, I felt closure because I finally found out that's he's been lying to me. I literally just wanted to stay in bed all day. I didn't feel like getting up and getting dressed.

Aria:

No matter what you
Say! You promised

Mind of Caden
Me: fine🙄
Aria:
Love you.
I loved Aria so much..but today not so much. I just wanted to lay in bed all darn day and pretend I didn't have a life. Even though it would help me not think about Caden and what he did. So I got the energy to get up from my bed and headed to my restroom to clean myself up which meant take a shower and do my other lady things. Once I was done I went into my closet and picked out an outfit which was a black crop top but not to crop, You could only see my belly. And then I wore just some ripped black jeans with some white sneakers. I applied what some makeup then just put my hair in a messy low bun. Once I was done getting myself dressed I went downstairs remembering my mother is gone and will be back in a few days. Whiles, I was thinking the doorbell rang me thinking it was Aria I ran to the door and opened it.
"You are actually my best friend," I say with my head down and walk into my house still thinking it's Aria
"Thank you.." I hear a low voice and Arias' voice isn't that low
I look up and see the one the only Jackson.
"Oh I thought you were Aria," I say and slightly smile
"Hey she smiles..." he says and points at me.
I smile once more
"You do you need?" I ask
"Nothing just wanted to know if you wanted to do anything today?..I'm bored and need a friend," he says
"I'm sorry I'm about to go to the mall with Aria but if you want you can tag along..you could possibly help me hold my bags maybe I don't know pay for some of my clothes?" I ask then the doorbell rings
"Hello, Carter!" Aria says
"Hi Aria"
"Oh, Jackson you gonna tag along with us?" Aria ask
"Um no thanks I rather do homework then go to the mall with to girls that are gonna make me hold their bags," he says
"Uh ok Fine...Ready Carter?"
"Yeah I'm ready..." then aria leaves the House and goes into her car
"Hey maybe after the mall..when I get back we can watch a movie or something?" I suggest
"That would be cool...I'll see you later Carter," he says
I don't move
"What?" He asks looking really confused
I slightly chuckle
"Jackson you're in my house...sorry sir but you need to leave," I say
"Oh Right..sorry," he says and walks out
"Bye Carter," he says
"I'll see you later," I say and get into Arias car.
"Man you got yourself trapped in a not,"Aria says
"What?" I ask
"You and Jackson," she says
"Ok, and what exactly are you talking about?"
"I just don't understand why you and he aren't together yet.it's totally obvious Y'all like each other " She says
"What?" I ask
"Carter you like Jackson...Jackson likes you..why aren't all dating yet?!" She says and backs out of the driveway
"Aria I just got out of a relationship," I say
"Oh don't give me that Carter...you wouldn't care...Liam was just a rebound for you" she says
"Aria no he wasn't I really liked Liam"
"Then why didn't you say you loved him," she asks
"Because it was different," I say
"Yeah different because all you could think about while y'all were kissing was Jackson," she says
"No, I wasn't," I say
"So if you saw Jackson with Jessica right now kissing would you be jealous?"
"What no of course not...Jackson would never do that he doesn't like Jessica" I say
"AHAH! JEALOUS! Your jealous Carter just admit it..you wanna be with Jackson" she says
"OK ok fine I do.." I finally say...I know it's weird but it felt really good actually saying it out loud.
