But the last statement struck him as uncalled for. "You think I ignored you?" he snapped. "I admit that I didn't handle it well but I never ignored you." But of course Marie never bothered to think that he was going through the exact same thing. "You think I was just fine and over you just like that?" he asked. "I went crazy. Everyday I wondered if the best days of my life happened when I was 13." he said growing more frustrated with each and every word.
He sighed. "For some reason I thought I could handle it. I knew it would kill me more to see you mad at Destiny... But I was wrong. It killed me to see you smile or laugh and know that that used to be for me. And by the time you and Destiny had made up I was feeling more and more ashamed of everything. I had a hard time even looking at you. And each day that went by I could tell you were moving further and further from me." And then he made the hardest decision he'd ever made.
"And then I figured you were better off without me. I guess I was right too because soon you were dating... more... acceptable people." And he... well, he was still in love with the girl that was then over him.
"Then I met Caroline. And then all of a sudden you were back in my life continually reminding me that I may very well have made the biggest mistake in the world. Continually reminding me that I still could have had you if I wasn't the world's biggest idiot."
"You think I don't know that already Marie? You think I haven't spent the better part of the past two years thinking about that? And of course, once again you decide to rub it in." he threw his hands up once again.
Oh, he knew. He knew all too well. And of course she had to be the one to ruin the one thing that was helping him to forget just how much he lost out on.
When Carter started yelling at her, Marie dropped his hand and crossed her arms in front of her. At this point she didn't care if he punched the wall and broke his hand. If he wanted to be stupid enough to do that over that wench that didn't deserve him then so be it. She wasn't going to try and stop him.
Once he was done with his little tirade, it was her turn.
"Yes Carter, I do think you ignored me. No make that I KNOW you did. And when you weren't ignoring me you were avoiding me or making excuses to get away from me. But you know what. I don't give a damn anymore. I've moved on and I'm in love with Matty and he loves me. And for you information, I WASN'T trying to rub anything in. I simply brought it up now because I was trying to make a point. You know, that SHE wasn't the one that had been fighting for you at all. SHE had you and chose NOT to keep you. I didn't get that choice now did I." No, HE made the choice for her.
"As for me being back in your life all of a sudden, I believe it was YOU that made THAT choice too. YOU were the one that finally decided to start talking to me, YOU were the one that let me back into your life. I didn't hunt you down or beg you to be my friend again now did I." No, she had been perfectly happy hiding in the kitchen the first day back to school.
"And believe it or not, I would be giving Caroline a hard time like I do now no matter WHO she was dating. That's called me hating my cousin Carter. It has nothing to do with you. You just happened to be in the middle of it because YOU chose to date the wrong girl."
Why had she even followed him in here? She should have just left him alone and not even worried about what had been wrong with him. Caroline was the one that broke up with him and Marie was the one getting yelled at for it. If it wasn't Evan yelling at her for something, it was Carter yelling at her. Why did she even bother with being friends with either of them. THey did nothing but cause her grief.
