The "Other Girl"

Seeing as I usually have
Plans to hang with Aubrey,
But today’s been super crappy.

After Kaleb pulled me aside,
I realized that this was bigger
Than just me and Caitlin.
Nathan, however, was
Blissfully unaware of the
Whole situation.

“Hey Camilla!” he calls,
And I groan, something
I never would’ve done
Before today.
“Hey Nathan,” I say.
“Are you going to try out for the play?”
He asks. I laugh,
The first time today.
“I can’t act,” I say.
“Do you remember the play in
5th grade? I completely froze up.”
Also, Caitlin would kill me, I think.
“Could you at least give it a shot?” he asks,
His icy blue eyes gazing into mine,
And I break.
“Alright,” I say. Nathan hugs me,
And I go frigid.
This is why people think
I’m the “other girl.”
