Forever and Always

I decided to ignore Harry tonight. I'd talk to him tomorrow. It just seemed so impossible that he'd do this to me. After everything he said.. No. It's impossible. He'd never hurt me like that.

But Alex doesn't really lie. She's never been much of a liar.

I didn't know what to think so I just let it go. I did my homework and then watched tv with my sister until I took my shower and went to bed.

The next morning I woke up nervous. I didn't really look forward to talking to Harry. I thought about what to say I got dressed. I decided on dark skinny jeans and a graphic t-shirt that Harry had given me.

"Sam, come on! Time to go!" My oldest sister called.

"I'm coming Jamie!" I yelled down the stairs.

I knew Harry would be at school shortly after me so I headed to the bleachers to wait. Maddy decided to play volleyball and Jordan was sitting next to me. We were talking a bit but I had to use the bathroom, so I excused myself.

I walked down the hall and turned to enter the bathroom.

I froze and tried not to scream and cry when I saw Harry there, kissing Alex.

She was telling the truth.

I sprinted up to him and slammed my fist against his arm. He jumped and looked up at me. He was confused, shocked, and looked very guilty.

"HOW COULD YOU?! AFTER EVERYTHING, HOW COULD YOU DO THIS?!" I screamed at him. I felt tears running down my cheeks but I didn't care. I just slapped him across the face, hard. I was about to punch him when I felt a hand clamp down on my shoulder.

"Sam! Calm down." It was Maddy and Jordan was behind her, suppressing laughter at his pain.

I lowered my fist and just turned around and walked away. I turned around for a moment.

"We are so over. I hate you, Harry."

My voice was like ice and Harry was speechless.

The tears spilled down my face and Maddy hugged me.

"I'm sorry. It'll be ok."

I just nodded, heartbroken.

Jordan walked over and rubbed her hand across my back, comforting me.

I felt a shock throughout my body and I smiled a little.

It didn't make sense that I liked how Jordan was soothing me. It didn't make sense that I really wanted to be in her arms rather than Maddy's. I barely knew her. It didn't make sense but I didn't care. I just wanted to be comforted and that's what was happening.
