Rebuilding [ Book 2 of Rewritten ]

Chapter 3

Everyone does dead silent.

"Wait Dean how old are you?"

"18. Syd is 2 years older than me."

Mia looks at the time.

"Maybe we should go to the karaoke club again."

"Last time we went there it was just catastrophe."

"Yeah, but some good things happened!"

Mia points at Vinnie and I.

"I'm down."

Everyone agrees and we all drive there.

I sit at a table with Vinnie, Dean, Mia and Thomas.

"Okay okay-" Vinnie smirks. "Stop exposing me to your brother-"

Jacob walks over to me.

"Hey Syd.. can we talk?"

"Sure. I guess."

I stand up and walk over to the corner of the room. "What do you want?"

"Look Syd.. I'm sorry. I don't want to breakup."

"Mhm.. see.. I'm done being this nice girl who goes right back to you every time you apologize. Actually.."

I walk over to the MC and he gives me a mic.

Dean looks at Vinnie. "What is she doing?"

Vinnie laughs. "She's getting ready to expose Jacob."

Song: Deal With It by Ashnikko

" I don't need a man, I need a puppy. Allergic to you every time you touch me. Emotional Maturity for dummies. And I don't have the time to pretend your funny. I'm back and I'm better. "

Thomas starts recording knowing something is about to go down.

" Deal with it. Boy you got to. I don't want you. Do what you want but just deal with it cause I'm so over you. "

Dean and Vinnie stand up.

"Get it Sydney!"

" Big bad bitch, I'm the baddest. We both know it wasn't love it was just a big bad habit. Stringing you along like a puppet. I can see the desperation got you right where I want you. Beg for it, plead you can suck it. "

Jacob gets the message and takes the mic from me.

"What the fuck!"

"It's my turn."

Song: IDGAF by Boywithuke and blackbear

" You were caught in a lie, said it with your eyes. Said to all my homies that you weren't even mine. You didn't think twice, you got a heart made of ice. And that shit hit me did me dirty. "

Everyone looks at each other confused and so I take the other mic while Jacob keeps going.

" Cause I don't give a fuck about you no more. Give back my hoodies or I'm kicking down doors. You weren't even pretty looking back and I'm sure you still miss me that's so funny. "

" I don't mind if we speak again. I don't wanna be cool, I don't wanna be friends...
Cause I don't give a fuck about you no more.  Left me bleeding with my heart on the floor. You were never really mine, I was never really yours. "

I leave the stage and hold back tears. I was never in love with Jacob. I wanted what we had back in high school. The guy I was truly in love with had never really left me. I walk over to Vinnie.

"Sydney are you okay?"

"No, but I came to a realization."

"Which is?"

"I still love you."
