my best friend

selena keller-epps

this story is about my friend othen it isa true story and everything that i have said here is true and really happened.

I had known othen since the first grade and i guess you could say i was a bit of a tom boy. me and othen were the best of friends all through school. I found out that othen liked me the first day of seventh grade at pinnacle canyon academy in price, utah. He asked me out and i decided to go out with him. Othen and i had been dating about a week and othen had gotten this beautiful diomand necklace from his older sister katherine. I was a little creeped out because we had only been dating for a week when he gavin it to me at lunch one day at school but, i knew othen well so i had accepted it. In junior high there is always a ton of drama so there was always rumors and stupid lies and backstabbing. I had heard a rumor that othen feel sorry for me because i was having family problems so that's why he was dating me. i was stupid and i had listened. I met him after school and i told him i wasn't going to be anyone's charity case. i dropped the necklace on the floor in front of him and turned around to walk away then i heard in a low voice i love you selena and it was more of a quiet whisper then an actual voice. i felt a strong sharp pain in my stomach. And i remembered what had happened i said sure you do and walked away. i came back to school the next day and i let him talk to me he apologized and told me he has loved me since the second grade. But, i dont love him but, i dont have the guts to tell him that so i told him we should just stay friends. but now i fell like a real b****.
