Ice Cream Shop

Chapter 49

(Kat)

"Hey"

I look at her confused

"What are you doing here?"

(Kat)

"I uh...I came to talk..."

"About what?"

(Kat)

"Us."

I look over at Sam and back at Kat. I go into the hallway with her and close the door behind me

"Talk"

"I just...I wanted to know if it was anything I had done, or like..."

I shake my head

"No, no. you didn't do anything"

(Kat)

"Then what is it?"

"Kat, you're amazing and beautiful. You didn't do anything wrong. I just don't love you as much as I love Sam"

(Kat)

I sigh

"Look I'm sorry"

(Kat)

"The only thing you have to be sorry for is stringing me along. You can't help who you love and I understand that."

"I thought if I dated you then I would get over him"

(Kat)

"Things don't work like that."

"I know"

(Kat)

I smile a little

"So is he in there."

"Oh- umm yeah"

(Kat)

I smile and nod

"Well um..I'm going to go."

"Okay, bye"

I say and go back in the room.

I look over at him and smile.

I smile.

I look back down at my phone.

We talk for a while before he brings up the razors.

"Why do you have them?"

"Why does anyone have them?"

I sigh.

He asks to see my wrist and I pull down my hoodie sleeve on the arm I didn't cut.

I bite the inside of my cheek

"What about the other one?"

I bite my lip before pulling down my sleeve, 4 cuts.

I look up at him.

I put my head on his shoulder.

I start to play with the ends of his hair, not saying anything.

I hold his hand and entwine my fingers with his.

I look over at him.

"I'm sorry"

I say not looking up at him.

I shake my head

"Don't be sorry."

There's a knock at the door and I take my head off Sam's shoulder.

I sigh and he walks to the door.

I open the door and its postmates.

He walks back in with food.

I put the food on the counter.

We start getting our food.

After we eat I look at the time, it's not that late.

"Do you want to go do something?"

"Like what?"

I shrug

"We'll find out"

I smile.

"You want to?"

"Sure."
