Part One - Problem You would normally have me talking about how great life is, but now it's taken a turn in the wrong direction. Will it ever get better? I was dating a guy for six months, he just decided to break up with me. My friends all warned me that I should have listened. How do you explain to someone how much you care about them? I liked him months before we started dating. My friend, Alton, helps me understand some things. My ex, Henry didn't know I was moving.... Could he know and that's why he broke up with me? Henry still texts me but I don't respond. I started but it made me realize how much I missed him. It's been months since the breakup so I feel stupid for still allowing myself to think about him and love him. I just want to know why this is too much to ask?*New IM message*Alton- Hey GirlMe- AyeAlton- Guess what?!Me- Whaa...??Alton- I found out why Henry broke up with you.Me - Why?Alton- He told me he loved your best friend.Me-- ......Alton yeah, I know, I'm sorry. I have to go, my love.*Alton logged out*Well, now I know why. I'm glad he doesn't know I'm moving. Now I have nothing left here in Jacksonville. I can move around without problem. I won't miss anyone except Alton. I guess he and I are best friends. I don't know when I'm with him, I feel like I'm holding back. He already asked me out, but I can't lose him as a best friend. I won't take such a chance. Not now, not ever. My bags are almost ready. Even if I don't move for a few weeks. I can't wait to do it again. A new life, new friends, a new school, a new home. The last part scares me a little. I grew up in the house I live in now, with all my pets; all my photos are here all my memories. It's going to be hard to leave...... middle of paper ......r work. Henry, I won't make the same mistake again. I can't go back to that type of lifestyle. You broke up with me after a dare. A challenge, a stupid game. A challenge was much more important to you than to me. Obviously. Do you know how serious this is? This makes me look stupid. I said while holding back my tears. "Bell, you're finally standing up for yourself, it's amazing." Alton told me to come over and give me a hug. " Alright. Never mind. Bella. Go out with him. » “I'm not going out with him. » "Not yet at least." Alton said. "Goodbye Bella." You made a big mistake. » "I don't think so." » I said. Part Nine - Alton and Bella "Thank you." I said. “Why thank you?” Alton said. “You helped me stand up to him. I couldn't have done it myself. Merry Christmas Alton. » “Merry Christmas Bell.” "Normally in movies a girl and a guy would kiss, right?" » Alton said with a laugh. I looked into his eyes and kissed him..
