And to think I thought my day couldn't get any worse! Grrrr....!!! He-He-He was here. Why would he be here? How did he even find me? I thought I left that bastard in the past? When you hear high school sweetheart you think romance, happiness, love and no wrong doings. HA! He was the complete opposite. 5 years ago he put me into a position that I never wanted to be in again in my life. I cried everyday from my sophomore year of high school until my last semester freshman year of college. The only reason I stopped crying was because I had Gabriel and Sasha. Without them I would have been in the same spot I had been five years. I like to call it the trophy girlfriend not good enough to get a ring but not good enough to to keep as mistress. To him I was good enough to have on his arm but worthless enough to cheat on me. He knocked my self confidence down to zero by the middle of our relationship. I know what you're thinking why would I stay with someone as despicable as him. My answer: my parents loved him, my family loved him, my school loved and everyone thought we looked great together. We were meant to be. Back then I lived to satisfy others and not myself. If everyone else was happy then I was "happy". I guess hell must be breaking free today...and they're soaring high and flying fast! Humph!

"What do you want Alex? I don't want to deal with you right now?" To say he looked shocked at my tone would be a total let down. However, I couldn't care enough to change my voice. Quite frankly, I didn't even want to look at him right now.

"Long time no see to you too Haley. I thought you would have more respect for your first love and all" He responded slyly

"Ha! The best hope you can have for that is when hell freezes over...So again what do you want? because right now your face repulses me" I replied in a dull tone.

"Feisty I like when did you grow up? Honey Bun!" I shivered at that nick name. That was one of the worst love names ever. Why I like to be called that by him...I blame hormones. "I just wanted to catch up you know...see how life is treating you"

"Lies...what do you really want? The only way you would find yourself in front of me is if you're ego got you into the most trouble possible and you want me to help you out of it. If thats the case then you can Kiss. My. Ass." I replied hotly

"You disrespectful, ungrateful, sex-imbalanced bitch...you owe me for making you who are back at home. I sincerely hope that you don't actually believe you're worth something. Well then that's just insulting to mankind. So. You listen to me closely you are going to complete my favor or you will regret it." He replied nastily.

"You're funny I'm not going to do anything for you. You don't scare me anymore! You put your hands on me and I'll make sure to go to the cops. You couldn't possibly have  forgotten the restraining order I have against you" I smirked.

"You mean the restraining that was just expired" he smirked back.

"Nope I still have one more year on it and then Im going to update it again" I responded back cooly. He really thinks I don't check up on when it expires. He's lost his mind if he thinks I would be that careless.

I tell you every time I look at him I get disgusted with myself because I have to ask myself every time what did I see in him? Then I remember he played my insecurities just right...with help of someone I love dearly. But who am I kidding I should have seen that mistake coming from a mile away and I didn't. It hurts just the same maybe even worse...


"Oh come on, Haley you can't hate me for telling you the truth! I thought you always said you'd rather have the truth than a lie?" He responded.


All I could was stare at him. Until I was finally able to hold back the dam in my eyes and speak without a shaky voice. "I wanted the truth all the time not someone who is willing to destroy my dignity just get what he wants!!!" I yelled. The hate and resentment sounded out loud into my words. I mean he couldn't possibly think what he did was okay.


He started walking towards me and all I could see in his eyes was desperation. It was if he knew I wouldn't give in and he was willing to go to desperate measures. When that look stayed on for more than a second I began to walk backwards. "W-W-Why are you looking at me like that?" I asked


"Because Haley I'm tired of asking nicely" he responded. And that my friends was my cue to run like hell. So...I did....and the next thing I knew was that he was on top of me and flipping me over. I screamed for help but just my luck no one was around. As I was thinking about how unlucky I am I felt an excruciating sting across my face. I think he just slapped me! That's when I kept screaming like my life depended on because well...it did.


"Get off of me you fucker, Get off!!!! Help! Help!" I screamed. Next thing I knew I got punched in the jaw. All I could hear was him ranting about something but I couldn't concentrate because all I started to see was darkness.
