Chapter Eight: Connor.

ᑕᕼᗩᖇᒪOTTE'ᔕ ᑭOV

The weekend eventually flies around, and I change into a black top and black skinny jeans. Then I do my hair and makeup, before heading downstairs. I spend the morning watching various different films in Netflix, while eating popcorn, before I go upstairs.

And that's when the drama starts. Someone knocks on my bedroom door, and I obviously tell them to come in, since who could it even be? Connor Lake, that's who.

When I said I only had one ex boyfriend, it was a lie. For Connor broke my heart before Mitchell, and this one was worse.

As soon as I see Connor, the memories pass. Our first kiss, a breakup, a last kiss, another breakup, a fight, a party and the end.

"Charlie," Connor whispers, and I Scowl.

"What are you doing here? I don't want you here," I say, resisting the urge to move closer to him, because I'm not sure if I'd hug him, or punch him.

"Charlie, please listen to me," Connor says, stepping in front if me.

"Why should I? You never listened to me," I reply, and Connor raises his voice.

"I tried to! I fell in love with you, I'm still in love with you! Please forgive me!" Connor begs, his voice loud.

"You know what you did? You broke what was once a perfectly good heart just because you have commitment issues!" I shout, tears starting to fall down my cheeks. Connor forcefully pushes me back against the wall and pushes his lips firmly against mine. I briefly kiss him back, before my brain kicks in, and I lift my knee up and hit him where the sun doesn't shine.

"Just go away!" I shout, and Connor just pushes my back against the wall.

"I hate you! You just left me there, I could've fucking died because if you!" I scream, throwing a vase at him, but he ducks in time.

"What is wrong with you? I wanted to apologise, I want you to let me explain!" Connor shouts, clearly getting cross.

"I don't care! Just go and apologise to her, because I'm sure she'll take it all in," I drawl, and Connor scowls.

"You know it was a mistake," Connor scowls.

"Yeah, we you've made too many mistakes, so just go away!" I say, wiping away my tears. Connor sighs, before walking out my room. I slide down the side of the wall so I'm crouched at the bottom.

"Charlotte?" River asks from his room. I look up and force a smile.

"Hi River," I say, trying to sound cheerful.

"Don't give me that bullshit, princess, what's wrong?" River asks, bitterly.

"Why are you even still here? I've ignored you for several days, I've been horrible to you," I whisper, wiping away the tears on the back of my hand.

"Because I don't want to see you cry," River replies, and I rub my eyes.

"Who was round?" River asks, curiously.

"My first boyfriend, Connor Lake, and what an asshole he turned out to be," I mutter, coldly.

"What happened between you two?" River asks, frowning in concern.

"If it's okay, I don't think I'm ready to tell you yet. I haven't even told Abbie yet, not even my brother or Mum know the whole story," I say, and River nods.

"Okay, well if you ever want to talk about it, I'm here," River says, and I smile.

"Thank you," I say, glancing at the glass vase which is now smashed onto the floor.

"I need to clear that up," I say, and River chuckles.

"I wish it hit him," River chuckles, before standing up with me.

"So do I," I say, cheering up. I grab a dustpan and brush and quickly clean up the glass, before putting it on. Then River leaves, probably to go on his date with Carly. I sigh, lying back onto my bed. Carly's not getting away with hurting me like that, I'm going to get revenge.

Sweet, sweet revenge.

Charlotte Richards is back.

I wear a plain white shirt and black jeans, with my leather jacket over the top for my date with Carly. I'm still a bit confused as to why we're having a date, I mean, she probably just wants sex, so why have a date before it? Who knows.

I leave my house and get on the back of my motorcycle and start to head to the bowling centre. I arrive just on time, and Carly stands outside pacing back and forward, clearly lost in thought. I park up the motorcycle, before walking over.

"Um, hey Carly," I smile, and Carly looks up and smiles.

"Hey River, let's go bowl," Carly grins, taking my hand and dragging me into the bowling centre. She gets us a lane, and we start to play. And obviously, I won bowling. Do you know why? Because I'm River Ryder, I don't lose.

"Do you want to go out for dinner?" I ask, and Carly smiles. We go to a local restaurant, and I think I see Nathan for a second with a blonde girl, but they disappear out of my sight before I can recognise her. I take Carly down to a table, and we sit down. We each order a drink, and Carly smiles flirtatiously at me.

"So, why did you ask me out?" I ask, sounding slightly confused.

"Because you're a nice guy," Carly says, and I inwardly snort. That's clearly not the reason.

"Be honest, Carly," I say slowly, and Carly sighs.

"I'm physically attracted to you, just like most other people, but I really really like you," Carly admits, and I raise an eyebrow.

"Um, okay," I reply, slowly. I spot who I think is Joe again, and frown slightly.

"This is the point where you say you feel the same," Carly inputs, looking at me closely.

"Um, I like you too, I guess," I say, and I don't know if I'm lying or not.

"Yeah, so I was wondering if you could be my boyfriend?" Carly asks, smiling at me. Maybe I should give it a try? Just stop the playing around for a short amount of time?

"Sure," I say, and Carly smiles before pressing her lips to mine. I move my hands up to her face and cup her face, holding her close to me. And just as I'm about to close my eyes, I see the girl who Nathan's with. It's the one person I didn't want it to be, Charlotte Richards. And Nathan had his lips pressed against hers.

Nathan is kissing Charlotte.
