My Best Friend's Boyfriend

Chapter 40: Don't Let Me Let You Go

I was in bed yesterday after my mom and I got home from school. I'm feeling a little bit better today but I don't wanna go to school. Being in a relationship with my bed is better than any relationship there is. Mom knocked on the door.

"Skye are you up?"

"Yes Mom!" I said groaning that she might make me go to school, she enters my room.

"Honey are you feeling better now?" She caresses my forehead

"A just a little"

"Why don't you just rest, I know you have been having a hard time this past days" she gave me a smile

"Thank You Mom!" I hugged her

"I love you, I know you are a strong girl" she kissed my forehead

"I love you too!"

"Now go ahead and rest" she leaves my room. I took my phone from the bedside table. I look through my phone I got messages from Jake, Serena and Amber asking where I am yesterday.

I forgot to text them yesterday.

TO SERENA, JAKE,AMBER:

Sorry! I forgot to tell you yesterday that Principal Jackman sent me home early for I wasn't feeling well. No worries the office called mom to pick me up.
-

I send it to them and again covered my face with a pillow. It was odd that they didn't text me back specially Serena.

TO SERENA:

Still can't come to school today :( I'm still not feeling well :(
-

I sent her a message but this time she replied quickly.

FROM SERENA:

BUT YOU'RE ATTENDING HOMECOMING RIGHT?!!
-

I'm not really sure if I wanted to go, I know that I'm not going to enjoy it anyways.

ME:

I think I might not.
-

I replied to her text but she didn't. I went out my room just after I heard mom left the house. I pour myself a glass of milk, I saw Kyle by the living room playing with his bone.

"Hi Boy!" He waggs his tail to me "You are so cute as always no matter what"

There was someone at the door buzzing on the doorbell.

"Who could it be?" I lifted Kyle in my arms as we both went to open the door. It was Serena.

"WHY THE HELL AREN'T YOU COMING TO HOMECOMING?!" she pissedly entered with her many hand gestures

"Hi!" I said

"Tell me why aren't you coming?"

"I know I'm not going to enjiy it anyway, so why not come" I said putting the dog down

"I didn't say yes to any guy that asked me because I know that you are going with no one and I wanted to go with my bestfriend instead if being with some hot guy" she is trying to make me feel guilty

"I'm your bestfriend?" I said smiling she made me feel haply again

"Yes you are! And is that a good way to let your bestfriend be dateless on homecoming?" He pouted

"I don't know" I tried to play hard to get

"Oh my god! Really?"

"I still don't have anything to wear if I'm even going"
