NICK'S POV
I messed up. I messed up again. Again, and again. Phoebe walked away after the incident at the cafeteria. Elly walked with me to the library. We both had a free period. The walk was silent and it was just awkward. I was guilty. I was repeating all the words I said in my mind. How stupid was I? I basically called her a slut without saying the actual word. Elly reassured me but I could see that she was disappointed in me. She knew how I hurt Caroline before. Even after Caroline forgave me, Elly always doubted me. And when I finally earn her trust back and befriended her, I blew it up.
The next day
"I need to talk to her" I said
"Trust me, Nick. She will not like that." Elly replied
"I don't care. I'm going to do it anyway." I stood up
"Nick, listen to me!" Elly said but I was already walking to Caroline's house.
