My Best Friend. by Brooke.m. (read out loud books .TXT) 📕

The Loud “Buzz” In My Ear Woke Me Up Enough To Realize It Was The First Day Of School. Summer Had Ended, And So Did All The Fun. I Stepped Out of Bed and Walked To the Bathroom Closed The Door behind Me And Stripped To Nothing. I Turned On The tap And Took out My Hair from its Messy, Morning Pony Tail. I Looked in The Mirror and Messed Up my hair To A Few Different Styles. I laughed At the Sight Of How bad I Looked. I Had Brown/Black Hair With Blonde Highlights And It Was Always Straight. Green/Grey Eyes. I Think I’m Kind of Pretty, But Then Again I Don’t Really. I’m Skinny… But I’m Not A Feather, 98 Pounds Tops. I Usually Wear Jeans, Tank Tops and Converse. I Jumped Into The Shower And Started Washing My Hair, Rinsed It Out And Then Washed My Body. I Let The Water Soak On Me. I Was Thinking About Every Possible Thing Till I Heard The Door Creak Open. I Jumped To Turn And See My Best Friend Logan With A Big Smirk Across his Face. I Turned Of The Water And Wrapped My Towel Around Me. “Logan! Get Out, What Are you Doing In here?” I Questioned/yelled. “Relax, it’s Not like I Haven’t Seen You Naked Before” His Smirk Grew bigger. I Rolled My Eyes and Smiled. I Really Didn’t care if He Was In Here, I’ve Known Logan since We were in Grade 1, And He Has Seen Me Naked Before. The Thought Made Me Blush And When I Realized Logan Noticed My Red Face I Quickly Got Out Of The Bathroom. I Pushed My Bedroom Door Closed, Not Paying Attention. I Took Of The Towel And Dried My Hair Best I Could. I Put On Black Jeans, And A Purple Tank Top. I Got On Some Old Converses Then Walked Down Stairs. Logan And Me Were Close, He Practically Lived At My house. I Loved Having Him Around, But At The Same Time I Didn’t. He always knew how To make Me Smile, And Laugh, But We Haven’t Been As Close Since I Started Dating Greg. Greg; He’s On The Football Team, And Since We’ve Been Together For a year now We Go To All The Parties, Games And After parties Together. Blonde Hair Blue Eyes, Muscled. He’s Way Sweet, But We Still Have Are Arguments. I didn’t Like Being Centre Of Attention, Being Football Captains Girlfriend Followed With The “it” Girl Image. I Didn’t Act All Prissy or Blonde like Those Cheerleader Girls, But I Did Have A Attitude. I Loved Greg, He Always Made Me Feel Protected Somehow, But I Was Sure he didn’t Like Logan Spending Time With Me. Logan Was Like Me, He Liked Black More Than Bright; Greg Didn’t Like That Either. I Usually Shrugged It Off, I Spent Time with Greg; A lot Of Time, Leaving Logan Behind Mostly, but There Was Times When I Left Greg Behind For Logan, Which He Didn’t Like. They Practically Hated Each other. I walked To the Kitchen and Searched for a Bottle of Water in the Fridge. I Felt Gentle Yet Strong Hands Wrap Around My Waist And Pull Me Gently Away From It. I Smiled And Turned Around. “Ass, I Wanted My Water!” He Smirked And Laughed. “How Am I A Ass? His Smirk Turned To A Smile, Just Go Get your Water” I Rolled My Eyes And Reached Into The Fridge And Got My Water. I Closed The Door And Hopped On The Counter Ledge; Crossing My Legs At my Ankles. I Twisted The Cap Off The Bottle And Took A Sip; Looking At The Shirtless Logan Searching In The Fridge I Started To Choke On my Gulp Of Water. I Twisted the Cap Back On And Put it Down Beside Me Still Choking/Laughing At The Same Time. Logan Closed The Fridge And Started Patting My Back As My Choke Slowly Faded The Worry In His Eyes Did Too. He Laughed When I Calmed Down. “You Okay?” He Asked. “Fine, Thanks” He nodded. He Went To The Fridge And Grabbed A Apple. “See This Is Why Apples Are More Safe” He Smiled And Held The Apple To My Mouth. I Raised My Eye Brow. I Took A Bite, And Backed Away Slightly. He Took A Bite Right over Mine And Laughed. “See? Iz” He Asked/Told. I Laughed Covering My hand Over My Mouth Hiding the Food I Was Chewing. He Held It Back To My Mouth. I Backed Away More With A Ear To Ear Smile. “C’monnnn You know You Want It” He Extended The “N”. I Laughed. “How would you know?” I Questioned. He Smirked. “Cause I Know My Best friend”. I Felt My Cheeks Get Hot, As I Blushed. I tried To Hide It but I Knew I Couldn’t. I Leaned Into The Apple- But The Door Bell Rang. He Signed. “There’s Prince Charming, Better Run” I Seen the Hurt In His Eyes. I looked At him And Jumped Off the Counter And To The Door. I opened it And Was Attacked by a Hug from Greg. He Looked Over My Shoulder And Seen Logan; Immediately He Began Kissing My Lips With A Strong Passion. When I Pulled Back A bit I Seen A Pissed Logan Running Up Stairs. I Playfully Punched Greg In The Arm. “What Was That For?” I Asked. He Laughed. “What?”. I Rolled My Eyes And Wrapped My Arms Around His Neck Kissing Him Again. His Phone Buzzed, I Knew His Alarm For Football Practice Was Going Off When He Reached In His Pocket Pulling Away From Me. He Smiled At Me, Kissed Me Quick And Came In The House. “We Got to Get To School” He Said Laughing. I Sighed. “Let me Go Get My Bagggg” I Said Slowly; Like I Was Annoyed. Up The Stairs and into My Room I Grabbed My Black Jacket and My Bag from My Room. I Was At My Bedroom Doorway When Logan Stormed Out Of The Bathroom And Right By me; Blood Dripping Off His Arm. I Signed. Logan Coped With his pain By Cutting Himself, With His Rugged Black Hair Spiked up To The Side, His Green/blue Eyes, Everything About Him Showed Pain; But I Loved That. I Didn’t Cut Myself, I Had No Reason To Other Than How I Hurt Logan, But I Still Worried For Him. I Let Out My Deep Held IN Breath And Walked Down Stairs To Greg. “Ready To Go?” He Asked Sweetly. I Nodded And We Walked To His Grey Hummer. I Got In My Seat up Front, And Him In The Drivers Seat. We Drove About A Mile Till We Got To School. We Pulled Up And I Got Out. He Came Around The Front Of The Car And Held My hand. I Smiled At His Blue Eyes Shining As We Walked Into The School Doors. The Guys Came Up To Him And They Started Chanting That They Were Going to Win There Game. I Laughed At The Guys Going Crazy, And The Girls Cheering Trying To Get There Attention. I Slipped My hand Out From Greg’s And Wandered Off. He Didn’t Even Notice. I Always Wandered Off, I Loved Being Adventurous And Exploring Around Before Class Starts. It Gives Me Stuff To Think About While Im Listening To The Teachers Boring Lessons, But All I Could Think About Was Logan. First Period Started, History. Logan Didn’t Show Up. I Shrugged It Off And Went On The Rest Of The Day. Periods Flew by; Teachers Only Went On About The Rules Of The Class, So It Was Pretty Boring. It Was Just Another School Day…

I Was Starting To Miss Logan. All The Times We Had Together, Going To The Park, Laughing, Being Best Friends. Its All Gone. All Of It Is Just Disappearing Before My Eyes. Im Now The Most Popular Girl At School, And I Do Act The Part. My Hair Went From Dark Or Bleach Blonde, Lip Gloss Shined My Lips, And Mascara Darkend My Beautiful Eyes. I Was The New “it” Girl. I Had Everything. A Hot Football Captain As A Boyfriend, New Girls To Talk Gossip With, Cute Guys Trying To Go After Me. I Was Defiantly Different, And Logan Wasn’t Around To See Me Change.
It’s been about Three Months since Ive Hung with Logan. Me And Greg Are Getting Closer, Spending More Time Together. I Have Knew Friend’s, New Things to Do, More People to Hang Out With. I Don’t even see him At School. Me And Logan Aren’t Even Friends, We Don’t Say “hi” Or Even Look At Each other, I Feel Bad About Hurting Him But I Need To Learn To move On.
I Woke up that Morning. Dripping In Sweat, Out Of Breath. My Eyes Swelled Up With Tears Rolling Down My Cheek. My Throat Became Raw And Dry, My hands Shook With A Nervous Motion. My First Bad Dream. Yeah I’m 16, But That’s When The Bad Dreams Get Worse. It Wasn’t Anything To Important. Just The Thought Of Loosing Greg. I Love Him I Really Do Love Him. I Heard A Knock At The Door, So I Wiped My Tears And Smeared Them Across My Eyes, Taking In A Breath And Trying To Relax I Said “Come In”. Greg Walked In. “Hey Babe, Why Were you Crying?” He Asked. I Sniffed in And Replied In A Calm Voice. “ Its Nothing, I Promise” As I Forced A Smile. I Knew I Woke Up Late So I Rushed To Get Dressed While He Waited Down Stairs. I Go With Him To Every Morning Practice, he’s So Sexy In His Jersey. Our School Colors Are Black, Purple And White, Imagine That In Your Head. I Used To Hate Those Stupid Games, But I’ve Changed Since I’ve Hung Out With Logan, I Wear Different Stuff, Act Different, But Everyone Loves It. I Ran Down Stairs And Slipped On My Moccasins. There Like Pocahontas Shoes, There Kind Of Sketchy, But I Like Them, They Tie My “look” together. “Ready?” He Asked. I Nodded. I Leaned In To Kiss His Lips, But He Redirected And I Kissed His Cheek. My Face Must Have Looked Stunned, Because I Froze for about 10 Seconds before Realizing He Was Snapping His Fingers In front Of Me. He’s Never Done That Before. I Just Forgot About It. I Walked To His Car And Got In to Front Seat, Him In The Drivers. We Pulled Into School, He Ran Off To The Guys, And I Ran To The Girls. “Hey Girl!” They Screamed In My Ear. We Stood Just Outside The Front Doors Of The School. Near Some Small Trees Planted, And The Benches. I Waved Back At Greg And He Smiled. Looking Back At The Girls I Laughed. The Girls Jumped up And Down, Talking about the Latest Gossip on the New Kids at School.
