Back Again (On Hold)

Chapter Four

"Truth or dare?" Carter asked. He's still sitting in the ground with nothing but his jeans.

I can't choose dare. He would give me an embarrassing dare. I can't choose truth too. They'll know my secrets. Can I choose 'or'? No. That would be childish. How about... run away? Not happening. Ugh, whatever. Just choose something already.

Hm, let's say Carter literally hates me so I know he'll give me a horrible dare. Truth is better. But I can't risk my secrets.

"Andy, choose something." Colton said.

"Truth."

Carter placed a finger at his chin, "Who is your childhood bestfriend?" He asked. I could see the excitement in his eyes. Why does he want to know anyway? He can't even use that as blackmail. But well, let's just thank fate for giving me a simple question.

"Boo, lame question." Jake shouted.

"Shush, Jake. Andy needs to answer." Riles scolded Jake.

"My childhood bestfriend, huh..." I said as I tried to remember who. "I don't know. I don't have that many friends. Can we consider Rob?" I smiled at the thought of Rob.

"Who?" Carter asked.

"Rob. My stuffed bear. He is always my bestfriend." I answered while smiling.

I watched their reaction. Do they think I'm childish? Sandy and Riles stared at me with awe while Amber just stared blankly at the pebbles in front of her. Jake and Tyler gagged dramatically. These idiots. Colton smiled at me and I smiled back.

"That's so cute." Sandy said, awe in her voice.

"I agree." Riles said.

"Whatever, I'm out of here." Carter said furiously and walked away.

"What's wrong with him?" I asked.

"Might be mood swings." Tyler said as he shrugged.

"I'm hungry." Riles whined.

"Me too. Why don't we eat?" Jake said.

"You guys go ahead. I've got something to do." I hollered as I followed Carter.

I ran and was actually out of breath when I caught up with him. "Carter, wait." I shouted.

Carter stopped and turned around to face me. "What do you want?" He asked.

"Is... is something wrong?" I stuttered.

"Nothing, just go away."

Ouch.
