Beth -
I walked into school alone, my earphones placed in my ears, ignoring the other kids who were walking into this hell hole with me. I walked to my locker and threw everything I didn't need in, and pulled everything I did need out. When I took my earphones out, I looked around and noticed everyone starring at me. The corridor had grown silent. I closed my locker and walked away. Everywhere I went, people would look at me a whisper. I began to get worried. Did I look funny? Did I have something on my bum? Have I forgotten to wear a certain peice of clothing today?
I was walking into form room when I was pulled aside by one of my old friends, Lucy. Her facial expression was sad and worried. "Have you heard?" She asked, her tone of voice quiet.
"Heard what?" I asked, forcing a small smile.
"About George," She whispered. My heart began beating hard.
"What about George?"
"That he slept with... Megan in summer," She stuttered. She paused, waiting for me to react. My blood boiled. My head hurt. My vision went blurry. My heart pumped hard against my chest. My hands shook with anger. My boyfriend and best friend. "He came back from Canada early in the summer and met up with Megan. They both got drunk and then, you know..." She carried on. My eyes filled with tears. Lucy went to hug me, but I pushed her away. That's why everyone was starring at me. That's why everywhere I went people were whispering about me. I didn't have something on me, everyone knew about him and I didn't. I stormed through the corridors and towards George's form room. I burst through the door and towards George's desk, ignoring the teacher and other kids.
"You fucking cheater! You fucked my fucking best friend while telling me you was away at Canada!" I screamed, pushed George. He stood up, trying to restrain me. By this point, everyone in the room was looking. The teacher tried helping George restrain me, but I pushed them all away. Tears began to stream down my face. "You lied to me, then excused me of cheating! Who does that!" I shouted. George managed to push me out of the room. He tried to hug me, but was only to be greeted with my clenched fists against his chest. The pain was unbearable. I didn't want to feel like this anymore.
"Babe, it was a mistake-"
"Don't you dare call me babe. I am no longer you 'babe'. We are done. I hope every girl in this school see's how much of a shit person you really are," I shouted, pushing him away from me again. He kept trying to hug me. "Get off! I don't want you near me! You make me feel sick. The thought of you, and my fucking best friend!" I screeched, my throat hurting. Many people had begun to stare and form a cirlce around us. A teacher grabbed hold of my arm, telling me to go. I pushed away, running towards the exit of the school. Why did this have to happen to me. Why couldn't I just be happy. More tears ran down my face. I could feel my cheeks burn. I almost ran to Megan's house, banging on the door when getting there. When she answered, I slapped her hard around the face. She fell to the floor in pain.
"You are a fucking slag. You sleep with my boyfriend! Then say he's a tool! What sort of best friend does that?" I shouted.
"Beth, it was an accident. I was going to tell you, but I didn't have the heart," She cried, holding her cheek still.
"Didn't have the heart to tell me how you fucked my boyfriend while pissed when he was supposed to be away at Canada. Great friend you are," I spat, walking away.
"Beth wait!" Megan cried from the doorway. I turned around once more.
"We are done, Megan," I snapped, looking down at her in disgust. I heard her cry from the door as I walked away. As soon as I got home, I got into bed and cried. The pain was too much. The pain in my chest grew bigger, and my hands still shook with anger. I didn't want to feel like this anymore. I just wanted to die.
