Fresh Beginnings

the bet

"We all know Katie timbers "he says making the crowd reply 'yes'

"Well she is the ugliest girl I know and she did in fact fall in love with me " Damien says smirking

Everyone is looking at me with different expressions

Some give me pity ....others smirking .... Others look like they want to laugh and my friends look like they're gonna cry as well

"She was so gullible to believe that a bunch of popular bad boys will say they love her and want to be her friend  once they bump at each other " his eyes never leaving

Why couldn't he just say ....I'm joking show a hint that he was guilty

Just say but. ...

Say you fell for me ....just like I did

"Katie timbers any comment " he says still smirking

"Hey leave her alone " a boy yells

The boy who I called rude during the pe lesson

"Yeah leave her  alone " Mary from science class yells

"We don't want your dead ghost informing us about your stupid bet "chloe says looking beyond pissed

"You jerk just get out the stage " Diana says matching chloe

"Our friendship is over " Ryan who intertwines hands with chloe yells

"Our history together is ruined " Cole yells back now closer to Diana

They didn't notice me make my way to the stage

"I hope you're happy "my small voice comes through the other microphone

"All this lies...The promises from game day and your death " I continue

His smirks fades a bit

"Oh come on... it was nothing but a sill bet " he says "no hard feelings"

"No hard feelings ... just a bet " my tone rises a bit "you know I thought I found true love...you made me think my siblings were the bad guys ....

I gave you a second chance after mourning a loss...I vowed never to replace Cameroon but I broke it .... you said your parents died that you hated your sister only to find out they're both alive ...you love your sister and you have other siblings

I gave them my most valued possession but no you say No HaRd FeELiNGS " I inhale a small deep breath

"But thank you " I say shocking everyone

"if I hadn't gone on a date with you  carter would have still been angry with me....
If you didn't fake your death  jayden would  have never forgiven  me
If you didn't bump on  me I would have never met Ryan and Cole or my dad would have still been angry with me ... so thank you" I say walking out the stage

I head out the door not angry just upset

"Wait Katie you know what he said isn't true " Daniel says " we like you. ..I like you "

I blush but give him a soft smile "I know "I whisper

I walk home and open the door
I see all my siblings wearing there shoes I guess they're leaving

"Katie.....look I'm so s- " and I dive into him

Who's him ?you ask

Well it's Blake.the brother I was hoping for comfort

"I need you " I kept repeating "I need all of you "

I say not removing myself from the embrace

" I'm sorry Katie but you have to tell us what happened " blake says a bit soothing

"I know " my voice cracks

Who was I to think that I was in one of those cliché movies , Disney movies and fairy tales

Why did I expect a happy ending but got a broken heart at the end
