My Summer Vacation: Part 5

I didn’t call Nick back because, well, I didn’t want to go out with him! I guess he couldn’t stand the wait because he ended up calling me 3 days later.
“Hi this is Nick, is Maddie there?”
“This is her.”
“Oh, so anyway, did you think?”
“Yes, I think all the time.”
“No, I mean about, well, us?”
What do I say?
“Uh, well your nice and all, but I think I’m into other guys.”
“Oh, well, uhh I gguess tthats ook.”
I could hear pain in his voice.
Wow, was he that upset?
“Well bye, thanks for asking.”
“Bye tthen. Mmaybe I’ll ssee youu aroundd.”
He hung-up. Suddenly, I felt guilty.
