I looked down at his arm and couldn't help but be angry. "You okay?" I asked softly.

Carson
"Yeah, I'm fine." I said, looking up. "He's right, though." I said. The car stopped and I got out of the car.

Harley
My head dropped as I got out of the car. What was that supposed to mean? Did he not want to be with me? "He's not completely right." I said softly. "Just because you like something or someone else along with baseball doesn't mean its going to distract you so much that everything goes down the drain. Your life is baseball. Its not one of those things that you just give up on and when your whole life does revolve around that one thing you aren't going to let distractions distract you."

Carson
"Yeah I know." I sighed "But I can't let him down. As much as I hate him, I can't fail. Hes invested his whole life on this." I said. "it's not that I don't want to be with you, it's just that I don't know how to meet his expectations."

[Tori]

Harley
"Hey. Look at me." I tilted his head towards me. "You will not fail. You are and never will be a failure. Whether you meet your father expectations or not you will not have failed. Maybe you don't make the team he wants you on but you're on another pro team. Does that mean you have failed? I don't think it does." I told him, looking straight into his eyes.

Carson
"I just want him to be proud of me for once." I sighed, looking down.

[Tori]

Harley
"He will be." I said then sighed. "I guess I get it." I said looking at my feet. "If you change your mind, please, come and find me. For the most part I'll be at the gym or barn so you know where to look." I kissed his cheek then took a few steps back. "Get well soon Carson." I said softly before turning around and starting to walk away.

Carson
I sighed. Now she was mad at me. This was like the worst day ever. I started going after her. I grabbed her arm. "Harley-" I looked in her eyes not sure exactly what to say. "I'm sorry. I don't want us to end." I said, a pleading look in my eye.

[Tori]

Harley
"Then what do you want?" I asked as I spun around. I hid my sadness with anger. "Tell me. I give everyone else what they want." I took a breath. "Im in the exact same boat as you Carson."

[chargergirlz]

Carson
I took a step back, stung. I let go of her hand. "I don't want you to do anything but be with me." I said softly. "I like you, Harley. And I know you like me. It would be stupid to ignore eachother and pretend like nothing happened." I pursed my lips. "But if that's what you want, I'll do it."

[Tori]

Harley
"Its not what I want at all." I sighed. "Im sorry. Im no good at this. All I want is normality." I said looking down.

[chargergirlz]

Carson
"No. It's not your fault. I'm no good at it either." I said, putting my hand on her arm gently. "It's been a long day."

[Tori]

Harley
"Come find me tomorrow?" I asked softly.

[chargergirlz]

Carson
"Yeah. Whenever they let me out of that place." I nodded towards the infirmary. "Thanks for everything today." I said quietly. Before leaving, I put the hand that wasn't in a sling on her cheek and kissed her.

[Tori]

Harley
I kissed him back before slowly walking away.
