This is still in Carter's POV BTW

I was on my way to school when I saw a girl get hit by a car.Oh no.

I ran to the side of the street.She fell off her bike and her nose was bleeding.

Crap.I helped her up off the ground.I saw the car drive away.What a jerk.

She coughed."You okay?"I asked.

She nodded."Yeah.I'm fine.If I knew that was gonna happen I would of worn a helmet."she smiled.I laughed.

"My name is Teresa.Thanks for helping me."She walked away.

What?That's it?How do you get hit by a car and walk off like nothing happened?I smiled.That's impressive.

:3

I saw her across the lunch room.She was eating with her two guy friends.I think.She's pretty cute.I like her style and her humor is very attractive.Sigh.Just go and talk to her.

I walked over to the table.God she's beautiful.

"Oh hey ...guy that saved me.What's up?"Teresa asked,sipping her Starbucks.

"Its Carter and I was just wondering if you know we can just talk.But if your busy with your friends and stuff then-".

"No its okay.Guys you don't mind right?"Teresa asked the blond and brunette.

They shook their heads.

She hopped up and walked with me back to my table.Most of my friends weren't here today because they had a game.And well I wasn't here for a while so I couldnt play which is pretty disappointing.

"So,what do want with little old me?Hook up?Like with everybody else?"She asked,raising her eyebrows.

I sighed.I forgot all about my reputation at school.

"I don't wanna hook up with you"I replied honestly.

"You wanna be friends?"she asked, confused.

"No.I want to be more than that.Get to know you.For you to get to know me."I stated.

Teresa sighed."I don't know.I feel like this is some sort of bet or prank.I mean your a well known football player who ditched for a month.What was up with that anyway?"She asked.

I laughed nervously."I um was really sick.Anyway what do you say?"

Teresa bit her lip,thinking.Keep your cool.

"Hmmm...I have a art club meeting later.Meet me in room 320 then and well grab a bite.K?"She smiled and walked back to her table.

Woah.

:3

"Ready?"I asked,standing in the door entry.

Teresa nodded,gathering her things.

"Where do you wanna go?"I asked as we walked down the hallway.

"I don't know.You pick football guy."

I chuckled.

"Lets just go to Cafe Armallio.They have the best coffee."She smiled.

We arrived at the café pretty quickly.

"Im kinda glad I got by the car."Teresa smiled.I grinned

:3

The date went better than I expected.And that scared me.We talked about everything and anything.It was amazing.Were planning to go out again soon.I couldn't wait.

I opened the door to Yazmins house with a smile on my face.

"Hey Carter."

Its been a week since Yaz got drunk at the bar.I haven't mentioned anything that happened because I didn't want her to freak out.And I'm not sure if all the things she told me were true.What if they were?Does it matter?

"Hey Yaz.How was work?"I asked,sitting on the couch next to her.

"Uh...fine.Just more bomb threats."She said,sipping wine from a glass.

I looked at her.She was wearing one of my t-shirts and some shorts.Hey!

"Is that my shirt?"I asked.

Yaz smiled,guiltily. "Maybe."

I shook my head."You look good in it."

"Thanks."

"Um well I guess I'll just go do my homework now. Its pretty late."I said heading for the stairs.

"Speaking of pretty late,where have you been?"she asked,tapping her finger on the glass.

"Out.With someone."

"Who?"

"A girl."

"Like a date?"

"I guess you can say that."

"Oh."

Yazmin's POV

Oh.Its pretty much all I could say.I mean oh.

I just ...I'm speechless.He was supposed to be mine.All mine.But if I say that I sound like a selfish bitch.And a hypocrite.Because I'm the reason we aren't together.Were just friends.So its okay for him to be with someone else.He's not cheating.I mean its only fair.

I finished drinking my wine and quickly went to my room.

"Yaz..."

"Yeah."I didn't notice my nose was running until I looked in the mirror.

"You okay?"Carter asked,softly moving toward me.

No no no.He can't be comforting me when he's the reason why I feel so disappointed.In him and myself.

"Carter just leave me alone.I'm fine."I faked a smile and went in my room.He was on the bed next to me a second later.

"Dont lie to me."He said taking my hand.

God why does he have to be so sweet?

"Im not lying" I lied.

"Just stop.Your not even the least bit convincing.She seems like a great person,Yaz.I think it might work."

I bit my lip nodding.Trying no willing myself for the tears not to fall.Look at me a helpless girl crying over a boy.How stupid am I?

"Don't think I'm gonna forget about you.Cuz I won't.I'll never forget about you."He kissed me on the cheek and stood.

"Will you?"he asked,smiling.

Forget about you?Never.In a million years.

But I just shook my head.

"Whats her name?"

"Teresa"he grinned.

I sighed. "She sounds pretty."

"She is.Very.And she's funny and sweet and smart."

I sniffled.Damn you emotions.

"Im glad.That you found someone you aren't gonna just hook up with."

"You don't know that for sure."Carrer winked.

I laughed.And that was that.

I'm back.That was fast.I couldn't leave you guys.Thoughts came back.This story is back on track.I'm happy and yeah.Sorry about Carmin.Yazmin needs to get her life together so does Carter.You get me?Anyways things will get better.Trust.
Do you like Teresa so far?
