Promised (2013)
“You have baked enough cupcakes.” Dani teases, trying to lighten the mood. I called her after the blow up with Linc and she picked me up from school early. She brought me to her trailer to hide out after we made a quick stop at the supermarket to buy cupcake making supplies.
I scan the counter that’s now covered with no less than four dozen cupcakes. Not only my favorite sprinkle kind, but seeing as the situation was so awful, I made some chocolate too. Chocolate fixes everything, right? Lor...d, I wish it could be as simple as that, but I know it’s not. I grab the bowl of chocolate batter and take a seat beside Dani.
“He asked me to choose.” I tell her. Using the spoon, I take a big bite of the batter.
“Choose?” She asks, watching me closely. I can tell she’s worried. I never leave school early and definitely not over a guy.
I swallow the batter then answer. “Him.”
She’s so shocked that her eyes grow to the size of saucers.MoreLess
