My Best Friend., Brooke.m. [librera reader TXT] 📗

Dents On His Nose. Added Tears In His Black Eye, And Pimples That Popped, literally. “The Real Greg, Finally”. I Wrote Under His Picture Exactly That. I Caught Greg Looking Over My Shoulder A Few Times to Peek, But I Quickly Crumpled It Up And Tossed It Over To Logan When he Wasn’t Looking. Not That He Would Care Anyway. He’s A Cool, Lay Back Teacher. The Best. I Smiled In My Head. Looked Over At Logan, then Smiled At Him. His Face Lit Up As He Winked. He Got A Piece Of Paper And Smiled As He Sketched Something. I Sketched The Assignment, Something We Can Sit On? Weird Title For A Sketch. He Crumpled The Paper And Tossed It To Me. I Unfolded It and It Was A Random Picture Of Pickle. It Read “Incase you Don’t Get Lucky, You Might Need This To Go Screw yourself” I Laughed Out Loud. Kids Were Starring, Including Greg. I Crumpled The Paper And Shoved It In My Bag. I Passed A Regular Note To Logan This Time. “Hey, My Place After School?” I Wrote Down And Passed It Across The Class. He Nodded And Put It In His Bag. Mr.Califf Said My Name Loudly. “Note, Mrs. Elizabeth, Mine Now” He Tried To Force A Serious Face. I Got Up And Handed Him The Small Rugged Piece Of Paper. He Read Out Loud, My Fake Note. I Always Keep A Back Up In My Pocket, In Case I Get Caught, Like Now. He Cleared his Throat And Slightly Laughed. He Read, “Have you Noticed How Much Greg’s face Is Screwed Up After My Kick, Lol.” Everyone Started Laughing. I Smiled At Greg And He Got Up And Left. I Didn’t Care. He Was A Jerk. I Looked Over At A Smirking Logan. He Liked The joke, But I Knew It Still Hurt Him That I Ditched Him For Greg. Art Class Really Does Change People.
Tears & Puke.

I Guess you Could Say the Day Went By Easy. Greg Left, Completely Left The School Grounds Because Of My Note. Like I Could Care Less? I had My Life Back. I Was Me Again. I Was The Me I Was Before, But Logan Still Gives Me That Look. You Know; The One Look That Says “You’re a Stupid Slut Who Ditched Your Best Friend To Become An Air Head?” Yeah That Look. Well, I’m Going to Stop it. I’m Going To Try To Talk To Him After School, I Want Things Back To How They Were, I Want My Logan Back, At Least I’m Going To Try To Get Him Back.

After Last Period the Bell Rang, Logan Met Me at My Locker. I Hung One Side of My bag Over My Shoulder And Look Up. “I’m Coming, Give Me A Sec I Have Homework” I Smirked And Laughed And I Took My Sweet Ass Time, Clearly Driving Logan Crazy. He Grabbed My Wrist and Spun Me Around, Goofing Off And Practically Dragging Me Down The hall. “Yeah Right, Lets Just Go Iz, I’m Bored” He Grinned When I Started Giving Up. I Started Walking, Gave In And Let Him Take Me Away When Greg Suddenly Showed Up. Does He Ever Stay Away? Jeez. “I Thought You Left School” I Said Coldly. “I Need To Talk To You Lizard” Greg Face Was Flat. No Emotion. I Felt Logan Tense Up In The grip He Had Of My Wrist. Greg Only Called Me Lizard When He Wanted To Be Romantic And Get Other Guys Jealous. I Stiffed A Sigh. “I’m Not your Lizard Anymore, Greg, Im Just Me, I’m Not Yours. So Get The Hell Away From Me” I Jerked My Shoulder Against His And pulled Logan At My Side. “Piggyback?” I Asked sweetly. Laughing at how preppy I sounded. Logan Smirked And Lifted Me On His Back. After Long Silences and Some Awkward Sighs, They Were Broken by... “Iz, Do You Love Him?” The Hurt In Logan’s Voice Was Heart Breaking. My Stomach Clenched And I Felt My Eyes Stinging. I Don’t Love Him I Loved Him. I Don’t Want Him I Had Him. I Just Don’t Know how To Reply To That. So I Chose My Words Carefully. “Its Complicated, He Made Me Feel Wanted, I Do Still kind Of Love Him, I Can’t Help That, But He Doesn’t Love Me, no-One Does, So It Doesn’t Matter Weather I Love Him Or I’m In Love With him, He’s Past Tense.” He Looked Down At The Cement. I Knew He Was Silently Crying, Just A Few Tears. Id Almost Forgotten How Much Me and Logan Cared About Each other, And My Comment About The “No-one Loves Me” Must Not Have Helped. I Scared Him Badly With The Cutting Scenes, He Knew I Did That Out Of Having No Love, He Was Scared For Me, I Was Breaking Him And It Was Killing Me. It Was Like I Could Here The Drops Falling On The Cement Above All Noise. It Brought Back Everything Him Crying Like That. All Our Old Memories Together, Mine And Greg’s Memories, Greg And Logan’s. I Wanted To Bawl My Eyes Out With Him Right There, But I Decided I Would Just Let Everything Go Tonight, Cry My Eyes Out Then, And Tell Logan Everything That’s Hurting Me. I Sighed And Took His Hand And Untwined It With Mine. Still on His Back I Leaned Into His Ear And Said “Stay The Night?”. He Sniffed In And Tried To Hide That He Was Crying. Stupid Guy. “Yeah, Sure Iz” He Smirked And Sniffed In Again. I Rolled My Eyes And Hugged My Arms Around His Neck Tight. I Said More To Myself Then Him “My Logan” And Smiled Like A Goof. Logan Looked Up Over His Shoulder. “What Are You Smiling About?” He Chuckled. “Your Wet Face” I Laughed. “My Face Isn’t W- Oh Ew!” He Screamed. By That Time His Face Was Covered In My tongue Saliva and I Was off Running for the Park Laughing at Him. It Wasn’t Till I hit The Ground That I Noticed Logan Was On top Of Me Pinning Me down Right on The Grass. He Stuck Out His Tongue And Leaned It To Wet My Face But Instead, He just Kissed My Cheek And Rolled over To Lay Beside Me.

I Took My phone Out Of My Pocket And It Was 4:32pm, It Was Around The Time Things Were Getting Dark, But I Knew I Was Safe With Him, With Logan. I Smiled To Myself At My Thoughts. We Lay Their , Side By Side, Thoughts To Ourselves, Emotions Hidden, Eyes Shut. Crying. I Don’t Even Know What Was Really On My Mind, So I Focused out the Kinks and Found Myself Thinking about How Stupid I Was for Falling for Greg, And How Stupid I Am For Not Telling Logan That I’m Still Completely In Love With Him, Not Just “kind of”. I Missed Gre- Wait Crying? I Can’t Ldet Logan See Me Cry. I Was Lifting My hand To Wipe My Eyes When another Hand Got to It First. Then I Started Bawling. Logan Folded Me Up In His Arms, And Whispered Things Like “Its Going To Be Okay, And Don’t Worry Iz”, But The Sound Of His Voice Didn’t Calm Me Down like I Wanted It To. Logan Was Watching Me Cry Over Someone I Should Never Care About, But I Still Sighed And Sniffed, Choking On My Tears In His Arms. I Was To Hurt To Talk, And Like Logan Was Reading My Mind He Said “Then I’ll Talk And You Listen”. He Pushed My Hair Away From My Eyes And Rested His Forehead Over Mine. With A Soft Voice He Started Speaking, And I Almost Felt Better. “Iz, You Are, Amazing, And It’s Greg’s Loss For Not Noticing How Amazing you Really Are, You Deserve Something Better Then An Air Head Jock Who’s Obsessed With His Hair.” I Stiffed A Smile, But I Knew He Wasn’t Done, Not Just Yet. “Iz, Please Believe Me When I Say It Wasn’t Your Fault, Nothing About The Break-Up Was Your Fault, it Was Him, He’s The one Who Didn’t See What’s In Front Of Him”.
“A Broken Girl? I’m Broken, And I Don’t Know If I Can Be Fixed!…” I Curled My Head In His Chest And Bottled My Fist, Clenching A bit Of His Shirt. “You Are Not Broken” He Whispered. “Yes I Am, Everyone Says So… Even if Its Not Out Loud”. I Trailed Off And Bit My Lip Holding Back Another ugly Snot Chocking Sound. It Passed Cause It Was Silent For Awhile, But My Stomach My Turning And I Felt Like I Was Going to Be Sick. Quicker Then my Thought came, I Was Pushing Away And Crutching On My Knees Puking Up My Guts, And Crying With Such Force I Felt Light Headed. Logan Pulled Back My Hair And Rubbed My Back. “No, I Don’t Want You To See Me Like This, Please Just Wai-” I Started Puking Again, but Logan Didn’t Leave My Side. “I Don’t Care Iz, if your Sick I’m Going to Be Here For You, Always” I Was Crying More Then puking, Each Sound Like I Was Gagging On My Tears, And Shot Running Down My Face. It Stopped For A Bit So I Said What Was On My Mind When it Came To Me, Stupid Decision. “I Couldn’t Keep My Promise” I Sniffled In And Paused looking at Him. “No, Iz you Didn’t” He Was Shaking His Head. “I Did,” I Was Crying Hard.“ I Cut My Wrist Again, And I’m Sorry” He Reached For My hand Slightly And Turned Over To Show At Least 6 Gashes Up My Arm. I Felt My Stomach Clench Again. I Puked , Hard, And It Made My Throat Throb And My Nose Gross And Runny, But It Stopped In A Short Bit Of Time. He Hugged Me Tight In Comfort. “I Still Love Him, I Really Love Him” I Said Crying With A lot Of Snot. I Was Expecting The Worst But He Wasn’t Mad, He Didn’t Scream, He Was Just There For Me. And I Defiantly needed him. It Was Short after I Stopped Crying When I Collapsed into Logan Arms and Got My Breathing together. “I Know Iz, I Know” He Repeated.
He Was Tightening His Grip Around Me, Tensing Up, And I Was Sure He Was About To Speak Again. But He Didn’t. Instead, His Lips Touched Mine So Gently, That I Would Have Never Guessed He Was Tense At All. It Was A Small Peck, And It Felt More Like A Friend Kiss So It Was A little Awkward When He Pulled Away And Let Me Wrap Myself Around Him Laying Down, But I Felt Safe And Secure. “Don’t Worry, I’m Here” He Made The “Shhh” Sounds And Rubbed My Hair. I Finally Calmed Down, And Sat Up, But Logan Didn’t Hesitate To See If I Was Okay, He Just Shot Up With Me At The Same Time. I looked Up At Him, He’s Always Been Taller Then
