"Gabs?" I called out for her.

The only place I could think of was the toilet cause when she s angry she goes to the toilet but when she wants to cry she goes to the janitors closet.

I barged into the toilet impatiently.

There stood Gabby bending over and washing her face.

"Gabby? You okay?" I asked.

She looked like she's been crying.

"Gabs," I said sadly.

"I didn't cry because of Nicholas. I cried out of anger. I was sooo angry. And I couldn't do anything. Now I really feel pathetic," Gabby confessed.

"Pathetic? Gabby, you know what? They should be the ones feeling pathetic. I mean, they stooped so low just to get on our nerves." I snapped.

"Ok. But honestly, I can't take this anymore. I cant," Gabby said sadly.

And then another person came in. it was Nicholas.

"Dude! This is the female toilet! Get the fuck out." I screamed to him.

"Not until Gabby comes out to talk to me," he said.

Gabby went out and she looked like she already had what she wanted to say in her head.

So I gave her an encouraging smile.

I sighed and slid down to sit on the floor.

Then I got the idea to eavesdrop.

So I opened the door a little.

"Gabby, you know I would never ever fall for that. I fell for you Gabby. I really did. And I was shocked when she kissed me so I froze. You know me. I always freeze when I'm shocked!" He explained.

I could see Gabby smile.

"I know. I know you Nick." Gabby replied smiling.

"So, there's no gap between us? Your not angry at me? You don't hate me?" He asked.

"I'm not mad and I don't hate you. But, there is a gap I've been meaning to talk to you about." Gabby said her smile Turning into a sad smile.

"say it. We can fix it," he said.

"Nick,I don't think this one is fixable." Gabby said.

Nicholas looked worried.

She took a deep breath in.
"Okay so, you and I, I think we should break up," she said.

"But I-"

"No Nick, I didn't just think of this because Maddison kissed you. This decision has been working in my mind for a long time. It's not that I don't love you anymore. I just, I don't, I cant and I won't hurt you."

"Why would you hurt me Gabby? This, this right now, what your saying is the one that's hurting me." Nicholas said.

"Yes but, this will be a sting. Just a small little sting. What I have in my mind right now, is different. When the day comes, when I finally admit to myself, that would stab you. That would suffocate you. And that would murder me." Gabby said.

"What do you have to admit to yourself Gabby?" He asked.

"That I'm in denial. Because I have feelings for someone else. And I know, I know that these feeling a I have for that person will jeopardise everything. And I don't want to feel responsible for your heart. I love you Nicholas. But I, I don't think at 16 years old I could possibly actually love someone properly without actually wondering what loving someone that's not your family is." she said.

"Gabby, don't. Just dont," he said his voice cracking.Okay, I admit, I felt like crying. It was sooo sad.

She tiptoed and grabbed his shoulders.

"Nicholas, I love you. But my decision stays. And I will admit that I will regret this when I see you with another girl who will treat you and love you so much better then I ever have." she said.

She kissed him and then, they hugged.

"Goodbye Nicholas," she said.

I backed away from the door and Gabby came barging in.

She closed the door behind her and looked at me. She had tears in her eyes.

"You were eavesdropping right?" She asked me.

I nodded guiltily.

Then I went over and hugged her and I could feel her crying on my shoulder.

After a few minutes, she let go and wiped away her tears with the back of her hand.

"What made you do that?" I asked.

"Myself. My idiot self," she replied.

"Who is the someone you have feelings for?" I asked.

"I- I'll tell you when I'm ready." she replied.

So readers of today, take my advise and always remember to be there for your bestfriend. To be quiet when you have to, scold her/him when you know you need to, give them strength and courage, and mainly, to let them have someone to lean on.

Cause when someone betrays you, it hurts. It crushes you. So, get up and stand strong. Nobody's alone in this world.
