---Carter’s POV---

I didn’t know what to tell her so I didn’t respond. My heart was aching, knowing that she’s with him right now, knowing that he most likely feels the same way.  

I felt the hairs in my back stand at the thought of them dating. I don’t want her to date him! I always knew that she would eventually date someone seriously but I thought that by that time I’d have the guts to tell her how I felt.

But she likes him.

Why! Why can’t she see me that way?

My phone ringed again and it was her.

From: My Love, Mels :]

To: Carter

Hey! You didn’t respond… Wasss up?

Of course I didn’t respond! Why would I. Here I am watching the love of my life tell me she likes someone else. I felt my face get red from anger and chugged the phone at the wall. It landed with a loud thud and fell to the floor. A little while later Annebelle walked into my room, looking really worried.

“Hey babe, you okay?” She whispered. We were alone in the house and it was dead silent. She had just gotten back from her Boyfriend’s house and I assume she heard the phone hit the wall.

“Yeah….” I trailed off. I didn’t know what to tell her. She knew about how I felt about Melody. She’s the only one obviously and I never told her, she just figured it out.

--Flashback—

2 years ago

I was sitting in the couch watching a movie with Melody. She had her head on my lap and I was stroking her hair. She had just come back from a date and it didn’t go well so I convinced her to watch Mean Girls with me again! This movie always makes her laugh.

God, I love her laugh. But today, the movie was putting her to sleep. As I continued stroking her hair, her eyes fluttered more until she gave up and fell asleep on my lap.

Annebelle walked in a little while later and laughed silently. I looked up to her and she raised an eyebrow.

“What?” I whispered to her. She seemed to be thinking on something while staring at my hand that was stroking Melody.

“You seem quite comfy there, with Melody sleeping on you” She said. My heart started speeding up. No one knew what I felt for Melody and that’s because to the world, I’m gay. Which is true, it’s just that Melody is a special girl.

“What are you talking about” I questioned her. She raised her eyebrow more. I sighed, giving up. I knew exactly what she was talking about. I raised a finger towards her, telling her to wait while I took Melody to her room.

I picked her up bridal style and tucked her in bed. Then went back to talk to Annebelle.

“So… you gonna tell me how it happened?” She asked. I sighed again. I didn’t even know the answer to that. My entire life I’ve never been attracted to a girl and I’ve seen some hot girls!

 Then Melody walks in my life and everything changed. I looked at other girls and wouldn’t care but then I looked at Melody and my heart sped up, butterflies filled my stomach.

Maybe that would explain why I haven’t had a serious relationship for so long. I can’t put my feeling aside for her but I know I have to.

“I don’t know, Annebelle. One day I’m gay and the next I’m in love with Melody” I answered honestly. She opened her mouth to say something but decided against it. We stared at each other for a while until she spoke up.

“What are you gonna do about it” She finally asked. I shrugged. If I told Melody, she’d probably hate me. She’d probably think I’ve lied to her about everything and never what to see me again.

“Well, whatever you do; I’m here for you” She whispered. Annebelle is a good friend.

--End of Flashback—

“Then how come your crying” She said sitting down next to me and wiping the tears I hadn’t even notice were falling. I shrugged and nodded towards my phone.

She picked it up and read through the messages. She frowned a bit and then looked at me sympathetically. I felt the tears coming back but did nothing about it. Annebelle has seen me cry before. She comes up to me and pulls me in a tight hug, allowing me to cry in her shoulder.

After a while of sitting there in silence, we heard keys turning and foot steps outside.

“Heelloooo!” I recognized that voice. It was her voice. Melody. I quickly wiped the tears away just as she walked in my room.

“Hey” She smiled at us and then frowned. A shadow followed close behind. She’s still handcuffed to Harry. “Hello” He waved at us. I couldn’t help but frown even more.

“Carter what’s wrong? Why are you crying” She sat on the other side of me, looking really worried. I shrugged, not trusting my own voice because I knew it would crack. I looked at Annebelle and she nodded discretely.

“We were watching Titanic again and it just got to him” She lied. I smiled gratefully to her.

“Oh Carter! It’s okay; I’ll be your Jack!” She smiled at me. I couldn’t help but laugh at her because she really is my Jack. Everyone joined in the laugh. I smiled back until she turned to look at Harry who was currently smiling at her. I frowned again and left to the kitchen with Annebelle close behind.
