I supressed a giggle, looking forward to seeing the look on Keefe's face as I snuck up on him. The truth is...I enjoyed our little 'date' more than I ever let on. I really wanted to see him again, even for a few minutes. Call me sappy, but it's true. I hoped he would be as happy to see me as I felt just thinking of him. But something stopped me dead in my tracks. I heard Keefe and Ro - we'd been introduced a little while ago - talking about..me? A voice in my head warned me to run, but I didn't listen.
"Sophie and I are just friends. Nothing more, never will be. I don't have any interest in being with her, anyway."
I covered my mouth and gasped before I could stop myself. Tears streaming down my face. I couldn't explain the shattering feeling I felt in my chest. Then the word came to me. Heartbreak. Is this what those authors were always talking about? About the people who have love, and lost? I didn't know if that applied to me, though. I'm pretty sure after what I just heard, he never felt the same for me.
"Stupid, stupid!" I thought to myself. I can't believe I fell for another bad boy. After all, what happened last time? Once again, I get my heart broken. Lucky me. Then, the pain slowly drifts away, until I felt numbness blooming in my chest. I ran, until my legs couldn't carry me any further. Then I just sank down to the floor. There was a grassy area with trees all around, but did it even matter?
Did I even matter?
i promise, things will get better soon! but i gotta go now :) ill write tmrw! byee!
