This is the story of Sydney Gillespie and Savannah Lee May. Sydney had a huge secret. Nobody knew that secret, the only person that did had been her best friend Owen Patrick Joyner. He had always supported her through everything so it was no surpri...
"What happened!?!" Owen asks. "It's her. She's there..." "Oh no, c'mon, I'll drive you home," Owen says grabbing his hoodie as we leave. After about 5 minutes, we arrive home and I hurry to get out of the car. Instead of waiting for the elevator, I run up the stairs and reach the door only to see Isabelle and Charlie talking. "Ah, Syd, you're finally here, so nice to see you again!" Isabelle says as she stands up and comes over to me. "Don't touch me," I whisper to her.
She puts her hands up as if she's defending herself. Just then, Owen comes in and glares at Isabelle. "Um, am I missing something?" Charlie asks. "No, Sydney and I are just going to have a little chat outside," Isabelle says grabbing my wrist and practically dragging me outside. Once we're outside the apartment and the door is closed, Isabelle drops my wrist and comes closer to me. She tries to kiss me but I push her away.
"Aw, c'mon baby, you know you want to kiss me. I missed you," Isabelle says. "You know what you did and I am not taking you back. You cheated on me with my best friend!" "And whose fault is it that I can get with any girl I want? Cause it's not my fault every girl wants me." "Isabelle! We are not doing this again. It's been 8 months since we broke up. Get that into your stupid little head. I NEVER want to hear from you again. You made my life hell when we dated and I'm done hearing your useless excuses.
Nothing you do will get us back together. I'm not the stupid naive girl you used to know," I say as Isabelle starts to clap. "Wow, someone's gotten a backbone over these 8 months. I like it. It looks hot on you babe." "Stop that! I gave you everything and that somehow wasn't enough for you!" "Ah, sweet sweet Sydney. When will you learn?" "Learn what?" I ask. "I wanted sex but you didn't give me that. If you would've gotten over yourself and had sex with me, we wouldn't be in this situation. Now, would we?" "I-I-I." "At a loss of words?" Isabelle says. I couldn't stand there anymore and pretend she didn't just say that so I did the only thing I could think of. I ran inside as fast as I could and quickly locked the door.
I slid down the door, tears threatening to spill as Owen and Charlie run over to me. Charlie cradles me in his arms as I continue to cry. "Syd? What happened?" Owen asks me. I shake my head. "Char, can Syd and I have a moment alone?" Owen asks Charlie. "Of course," Charlie says letting me go and heading to his room. "Now, tell me what happened." "Sh-She only wanted me f-for sex... She cheated on me with D-Daniella..." "Oh my god, Syd. Well, did you? You know? Have sex with her?" "No, I couldn't. I was scared..." "Of what?" "Th-that after I gave it to her, she'd leave me as she did with her previous girlfriends..." "Aw, Syd... I'm so sorry this happened to you.
Do you want me to talk to her?" Owen asks. I shake my head. "Okay, are you okay now?" I nod unable to speak after finding out that our whole relationship was based solely on her wanting sex from me. "Owen, we have to go, we have rehearsal in 10 minutes," Charlie says coming out of his room. "Okay, can we bring Syd? I don't want to leave her here alone, she needs someone right now," Owen asks. "Of course, Syd, go get dressed but hurry." I nod standing up as I run to my room. I need a distraction anyways. I pick out this outfit and quickly do my makeup:

I grab my phone and head out with Charlie and Owen. I get into Owen's car and we head to the studio. We get out and head inside. Owen brings me over to an area with couches and I sit down. I still haven't said anything and I don't plan to. Owen gives me a hug before heading over to the stylist and hairdresser. Savannah approaches me and sits down beside me. I stare off into space. "Hey, you okay? You haven't said a word to anybody since you got here," Savannah asks me. I nod and continue to stare off into space but that's when I feel her pull me into her arms and hold me in a comforting way that Isabelle never did.
Savannah kisses the top of my head before turning me to face her. "What happened?" She asks still holding me in her arms. "It's nothing. I'm fine," I say finally finding words. "I know something happened but I won't push it." "Thank you," I say giving her a sad smile. She smiles at me and starts running her fingers through my hair. I start to feel my eyes droop as she whispers, "Go to sleep Syd, I'll be here when you wake up." I let myself fall asleep and as promised, when I woke up, she was right there with me.
