I walked behind Dan and listened to him chattering away about his new phone. My heart felt heavy in my chest. I didn't love this boy anymore. And now I didn't love him I could see what Rusty was so upset about. Dan was so selfish, he didn't consider anyone else's feelings except his own. He could talk about himself all day long and not pause to check if I was OK. He was still pretty on the outside which made it hard. The last time I saw him I was shielded from the ugly insides he had. But today they spewed out in front of my eyes. He stopped abruptly in front of me. I bumped into his back before standing next to him.
"Hey cupcake, what's the sad face?" He smiled at Rose. She frowned at him. "Can we just-" I tried to persuade him to leave it but he cut me off. Again. "I'm not done". He stated. Rose stepped closer to Dan. "That is no way to talk to Max" she looked Dan up and down. Rose was so close to Dan their noses were almost touching. "He treats me fi-" I stopped myself. Who was I trying to persuade this time? Dan laughed, clenching his fist. "What? Do you want me to treat him how you treat this saddo?" He asked rolling his eyes "Don't interfere with my relationships with others. Do you think we-". I had enough. I pulled his arm so he can face me.
"We? You. You're the problem. You always have been. You are embarrassing us" I yelled. He looked at me eyes wide. "I'm embarrassing us? That stupid prank you pulled yesterday embarrassed us" He said clenching his fists. I couldn't read the expression that was on his face. I hated that. "Well guess what. IT WASN'T A PRANK. I LOVED YOU." I cried out. And all of a sudden all of the feeling I was feeling came out. I smiled through the tears. He looked up at me sadly. "I broke your heart" he whispered. "Yes, you did. I was so blinded by my love for you I couldn't see that you were such a dick. But I don't love you anymore. I can see. Rusty and Easton, as dysfunctional as they are, have managed to be better friends than you. And you're supposed to have it all, but you don't have a heart, Dan, you don't". He looked taken aback by the confession I so calmly spoke into the air. I ran off past him. I know what I needed to do.

"Oooh," I said to Dan smiling. "That must of hurt, but if you'll excuse me. I've got to get going". I ran past Dan, I needed to catch up to max. But when I got into the next hallway it was empty no max insight. My head was reeling and my heart was thumping. I was so...Happy? That max didn't love Dan anymore. I don't know why but it made me feel a little bit better. I smiled, turning around in circles trying to spot where max could have gone. After a few minutes of losing hope, I decided to just wait for him here. He was sure to come back at some point.
Easton appeared at the end of the corridor. His tie was messed up and so was his normally neat hair. The top two buttons of his shirt were unbuttoned. "Your shirt, tie, and hair are messed up. Why?" I asked him narrowing my eyes. "why were you looking?" He smirked. I felt my cheeks heat up. His eyes ran down my body and back up again. "I was not looking" I lied. He laughed and I clenched my fists embarrassed.
"Hey has anyone seen my phone?" Max walked up to us. He didn't look as upset as I thought our previous encounter would leave him. Instead, he was glowing. His smile brightened the hall and his eyes sparkled. "No I haven't, but where did you go when you left? I came to look for you" I mumbled looking at the ground. I could feel Easton's smirk radiating from his body. "Awwh that was caring of you" He teased. I looked him in the eye. "Says the person who was just having a make-out session" I had come to the only viable conclusion. "H-HOW DID YOU KNOW," he said his cheeks turning red. I smirked "So You did?". I looked Max up and down. My eyebrow rose. "Your tie is also messed up Max".
He looked at Easton smiling "Well, we dug our own hole" he shrugged before walking off out of school. Easton smirked. "Bye Rusty". And they both left. With each other. Not even stopping to give me a glance. I took a step back shocked.
A big knot of anger welled inside me. I felt almost dizzy with anger. I had to sit myself down in the middle of the corridor. As people walked past me to leave the school building their stares left me paralyzed. And I finally knew what all those feelings were that had visited me this week. I was in love. I felt it at my very core. But with who? Easton or Max?
I guess I liked Easton's smile and way of handling things. But I also like how max is so obviously a sub no matter how hard he tries to hide it. Easton's way of automatically calling authority was nice. Max's hot blushed face made me feel wobbly. Easton's hard stare made me want to kill. Max's sighs and eyes were pretty.
My heart thumped in my chest
I've made my decision I know who I like. But I cannot tell them. And that's what makes me angry. And a little sad.
