Chapter Nine

Colten's Sister Cassandra ^

•Colten•

Supposedly Kiley fell today during volleyball practice. Some said she tripped, others said Kayla and Julianna pushed her and she fell.

I'm just guessing Kiley just fell. She is a really clumsy person so I could see that happening. Then again though, the other rumor is believeable... Well half of it is. Julianna wouldn't of pushed Kiley. She is way to nice to do something that mean.

Thinking about it made me curious and I decided to text my best friend.

Hey, dude what happened today?

I press send, and drop my phone next to me. Just thinking of what could of happened, I get more anxious. And the more I get anxious it seems like she hasn't replied in two years.

Ten minutes later she still hasn't.

Twenty minutes later it still reads delivered.

Fourty Five minutes later it is still the same.

This is so weird, Kiley always replys right away.

Then I remember Jayden.

My heart kind of sinks. I don't know why, it just does. Ignoring it I proceed with my thought.

She must be hanging out with him. They are basically dating, so why wouldn't they be? I mean, Julianna and I are going to be dating soon... Well I'm definitely planning on asking her out next week. But what I'm getting at is, we hang out all the time.

I guess I'm just going to have to get used of my best friend being tied down.

A hour later I get a text from Kiley.

Finally.

Sorry Colten! Was busy. I'll be coming over shortly to explain. I have great news also. Much love to da fam ;)

Well I waited just for that.

What a turd.

It was at least fifteen minutes later when Kiley arrived. She was beaming ear to ear. I'm surprised I noticed that first and not her brace.

"Hey cutie, okay so like guess who's taken bacon?"

Kiley smiles even more, blushing like crazy.

My heart sinks down a little bit for some odd reason. Instead of frowning like I want to right now, I put on a fake smile.

"Congrats!" I say taking her into my arms. Her hands rest on my lower back. I can feel her smile go into my chest.

"Thanks. So, when are you asking Julianna out?" She moves her head up, so she's looking straight at me. Both of us still hugging.

Honestly I wasn't sure about next week now. I can't like now because then Jayden would suspect something.... Maybe other people would too.

"Um, I'm not sure yet.... Maybe next week? Week after? Next month--"

She nods. Her grip loosening on me. Her face isn't as happy as it was a couple seconds of go.

Okay?
