To Be The Backstabber...continued

CHAPTER 2

he came up to me in the hallway today. it was the first time that he had confronted me since i told him that i didn't like him more than a friend.
"Reece, will you wait up? i need to talk to you."
I stopped... i had no where to be in a hurry anyway, it was a free period.
"I just thought that i would tell you that i talked to ally today."
i nodded and we started walking. this was his free period too... how unconvienent huh?
"and, well, she asked me out. and i told her that i would have to think about it."
"Why?" it was out of my mouth before i could stop it.
"Because i think that you were lying to me."
I walked out the door into the cold air.
"Why do you think that i lied to you? i was telling the truth. i don't like you more than a friend."
yeah, i didn't believe myself either.
"You were crying reece, crying. and you didn't look me in the eye when you said that, and i know that you're lying now."
we were now to his pick up. he opened the door and threw his back pack in there. school was out for us anyway.
"I'm not lying to you jay, just believe me."
He sat there a moment and then grabbed my back pack from my hand and threw it in the back. "get in, let's go for a drive."
as much as i wanted to say no for ally's sake, i got in anyway. i wanted to, just to be close to him like we used to be, to have him sitting there beside me, not too far.
when i got my seat belt on, we flew out of the parking lot and down the street. we were quiet, and about three minutes later, we pulled up in front of his house.
"do you want to come inside, or should we talk out here?"
i should have said stay out here, but i liked his house... it smelled like lilacs. so, we went inside.
i sat down on his couch, he sat down beside me. there was no space in between us.
"Tell me the truth reece, do you love me?"
i couldn't stop the tears once again. i couldn't lie to him. he knew anyway, so why keep it to myself?
i nodded and i heard his sigh of relief. he grabbed my hand and wiped off my tears with his other hand.
"It's ok."
i shook my head. "No jay, it isn't. if ally ever knew, she would be so hurt and i don't know what i would do then."
He leaned forward and kissed me, and i didn't stop him. step two to being the backstabber...
