"Um...I thought...well I thought we were-we were just-just friends. I-uh- I- I'm sorry Jared but I can't go on a date with you." I lied. I didn't want us to be just friends nor did I think we were.  I felt so bad saying no but he is just a camper. Not just that. He will be going back to LA soon. I can't fall too deep knowing I will loose him  in the end.

He looked disappointed but just said    "goodnight" and headed toward his cabin.

I climbed up the ladder, got back in my PJ's and got in bed. As soon as I laid down I fell into a deep sleep.

My alarm went off. I got up and put on some jeans and a button-up long sleeve shirt. I tied my hair into a ponytail and went downstairs.

My mom had made cinnamon rolls. I ate one and got my boots on.

I walked down to the stables and started petting Buttons. There was a folded piece of paper taped to the stall door.

I took it and opened it.

Sarah,

Go out with me?
                               Jared

He isn't going to stop is he?I already know he won't.

I really want to go out with him but he is going to be gone in a few weeks and I won't ever see him again. I can't let myself into something like that. Something that is doomed to end in heartbreak. I just can't.

Sure enough he didn't  stop. For the next few days he sent me cards, notes, balloons, and any type of message asking me to go out with him. Basically you name it. He probably tried it.

Each time I declined. Until that last time. He came to me face to face again. Like the first time. He begged me. I knew he really wanted this. I did too. I guess he was either stupid or he didn't care that it was doomed anyway. So I accepted. He was so happy. He hugged me and I swear if he squeezed any harder he would have killed me.

He ran back to his cabin in excitement.

I know this chapter is VERY short. Seriously it was only like 360 words but  it was just a filler chapter and I didn't have much planned for this chapter because the next few chapters are what I'm very excited for.

I love you all!!

Happy reading!
