Trents POV:
Ever feel like you are truly missing something in your life and that it's all your fault. Ya well that's me, once again I let my thoughts over come my feelings and when Shaima came over last night after hanging out with Mason I completely lost it. I told myself that what had come out of my mouth this time was not alright. I don't even know where we stand, this whole thing is just a mess.

The night before:
Shaima walks through the door and a smile is wide on her face.

"Ok I know you wanted Chinese food but the line was super long and I was not about to wait any longer so I got Nandos" she laughs and places the food on the edge of my bed. She looks up at me and realizes that I was not 100% here. "Babe what's wrong?"

"Um I might be overthinking things like usual but you were with Mason right?"

"Ya I was, I told you I was hanging out with him today," she scrunches her eyebrows together.

"Ya but I thought you were gonna be there for like 2 hours you were gone all day."

"Trent, what are you trying to say?" She asks

"What did you and Mason do all day?" I ask

"Eat and watch movies all day but that's it."

I roll my eyes and stand up from my bed "oh come on Shaima we both know that's not true, what did you guys do?"

"Trent what are you saying? That's all that happened today. Mason and I literally ate pizza and watched movies. We aren't doing this again are we?"

"What are you expecting me to think?! I don't hear from you all day but you come here all happy and joyful and you expect me not to think something is up."

"Say it, I wanna hear this amazing accusation that is about to spill from your mouth." She says sternly.

"Are you cheating on me with Mason?!" I finally ask louder than I expected though

Shaima jumps from my sudden outburst And rolls her eyes "you know Trent you promised me this would stop. That these stupid thoughts would stop. And no, I am not cheating on you with Mason, I would never do something to you like that especially when I'm so against it. I can't believe you would even think I'm capable of doing something like that to you. How low do you think of me?" A year falls from her eyes and I feel instant regret.

"Shaima, I'm sorry..i wasn't thinking" I tried to get out but then was cut off

"When you decide to actually talk to me like the adults we are and try to solve this issue you have with Mason then give me a call. But right now I am gonna go home." She states and heads for the door

"What about the party at Andy's tomorrow?!" I ask before she left the room.

"I don't feel like going anymore," she sighs and runs down stairs and out the front door.

For fuck sakes I just have to ruin everything now do I.

Present Day:
So yeah I messed up bad and I know but she's not answering my calls for me to even apologize. I want to go over there and say how sorry I am but I'm afraid she's just gonna slam the door on my face.

"Trent?" My mum walks into my room. I'm still under my duvet and haven't made my way down yet. "What's wrong? You never miss breakfast."

"Um just not hungry" I shrug and play on my phone.

"Ya right you not hungry means your sick cause you're always hungry now tell me what's wrong" she states
