Saving Conner

Hide The Pain

Kenzie woke me up at 8 to tell me she was leaving. By woke me up I mean I grumbled a good-bye and sank deeper into my pillow.

"It's 10:45 are you going to wake up or not?" Ryan questioned opening up my door.

"Go away, I'm not in the mood." I mumbled and threw a pillow at him.

"I don't care, you left last night without saying good-bye."

"You don't care."

"Maybe not, but I do care that you left my keys on the ground! Brook are you stupid someone could have stole my ride."

"That was the least of my worries last night okay." I didn't need someone nagging on me about keys when I had more things to stress over.

"If this is about Conner, it's not like he was your boy friend or anything and Kenzie knock her the fu..."

"Ryan for your information Conner is my boy friend. I know you don't care and all..."

He cut me off and stood up. "You're telling me that son of a bitch is dating you, yet kissed another girl. I'm about to break his face. He sure has some nerve coming to my friends house and breaking my sisters heart." He stormed out of the room and started dialing numbers.

Wait numbers... crap my phone. My eyes fell on the phone leaning against the wall. I quickly jumped up and put my battery in my phone. I dreaded turning it on, but I had no other choice. I couldn't be phoneless just because some guy.

As soon as it turned on it was *pinging* with text all from Conner.

Where are you?

Are you okay?

I swear it wasn't what it looked like.

Call me!

Please just give me a chance to explain.

So now your going to ignore me huh?

Please tell you okay atleast...

Brook??

Please let me explain. I'm leaving out of town Saturday let me explain before I leave... I won't be back til Monday.

My voicemail alerted me that I had 20 new messages. Does he seriously expect me to talk to him after he kissed Abby. I felt my face start to heat up and a stream of tears flowed down my face.

Don't cry he isn't worth your tears I thought to myself. We couldn't even have one day of us being a couple.

I cried even harder just thinking about it. I was glad he was out of town. I don't want to see his face.

I crashed down on my pillow. I wasn't going to face today. I want to sleep the pain away dream of myself far away from here.

*You ain't gotta wake up and miss me know I hope you get lonely tonight* My ringtone played over and over again.

I glanced at my phone to see that Blade was calling. I clicked the green button and muffled a what.

"Well hello to you too." Blade said cheerfully.

"What is it Blade?" I replied rudely.

"Look I know you're mad at Conner... but I really could use a favor." He pleaded.

"Go on."

"So I'm sorta babysitting my brothers baby and I have no idea how to deal with girls."
