All Chapters of I hate you, I love you : Chapter 1 - Chapter 6

While Avery was out smoking on the balcony with a few of her friends who had arrived early, I was busy picking up the last of the more valuable things we owned and hiding them away in our respective rooms.

 Caleb tailed behind me as we walked towards my car and I realized that  during the summer we had spent together, he had never been the passenger in my lousy excuse for a vehicle. He had made me like car rides, mostly because that was the bulk of what we did together. He would pick me up at three in the morning and we would just drive around the town that was fast asleep.
