This choice: "You're very lucky to have (your name)." • Go Back...Chapter #6Settling for Second Best by: GWriter   "You're very lucky to have him, Chloe." Ramona says.
"Yeah, I figured that out not too long ago. I'm more than lucky." she says, looking at you from the corner of her eye. "Well, I should get home, I'm tired."
"Me too." says Ramona.
"See you guys around." you say to them. This was the most eventful Saturday of your life, and to make up for it, Sunday was a total bore. On Monday morning, you walk outside your souse and see Ramona waiting where she usually does.
"Hey, Ramona." you say.
"Hi." she says back. As you were about to head off to school, you see Colin come out of his house to join you two. "Hey, you guys!" he says.
"Fancy seeing you walking to school today." Ramona says.
"Why is that?" you ask.

When you go to your locker, you faintly hear the sound of crying. You turn around and see Colin comforting Ramona. "It's okay, Ramona." he says. "These things happen. I promise that you'll feel better soon." Aw shit. you think yo yourself. Ramona must've seen Chloe kissing me. When Ramona gets up and leaves, you go over to Colin.
"Is she okay?" you ask.
