"BELLA?"

fuck.fuck.fuck.

Of course this is happening to her, she had one job, be mad at him, but not show she was mad at him and if he had followed her upstairs it was obvious that he had caught on.

She hesistantly turned around to look at him, he was leaning against the door, and he looked so so good but all she could think of when looking at him is all the times she cried over this boy. All the times she's got her hopes up, getting excited when he gave her a bit of attention because she thought it meant he finally liked her.

Most people love the chase, but when the chase goes on for this long, it drains you.

Her friends had always just told her to get over him, but it was almost impossible to her, Matt was her best friend, so it meant she was always, always around him. Having to hear that laugh she loved so much and that smile she would go to sleep thinking about, it was much easier said than done.

And looking at him now, in the same situation for the third time, alone.

She became vulnerable again.

And she just wanted to cry, because how has she allowed for this to go on for so long? How has she allowed herself to go behind Matt's back and do that to him, her best friend.

"Bells" Chris spoke again, watching her stare down at the floor, looking so lost in her thoughts. "What's wrong" he asked her, taking a step forward as she took one back.

"Nothing" she muttered, shrugging her shoulders, still avoiding his eyes.

"No, don't lie, you haven't spoke to me all night. Have i done something? Has someone said something to you?" He asked, stepping closer to her again, this time she didn't move away.

"Nothings wrong Chris" she sighed, wanting him to just leave her alone in peace.

"Well there obviously is?" he frowned, starting to get irritated, knowing she was clearly upset and she wasn't telling him.
