Paisley's POV

School came rolling around the corner and before I know it, here I am back at this hellhole. I can't wait until I graduate and get out of here.

I enter my combination and opened my locker. I hurriedly put the unwanted things from my bag into the locker. I don't want to run into Kylie and Jason. Especially Jason.

I know it weird because he's my boyfriend and all but for some reason, I don't feel comfortable around him. The more I thought about the situation, the more uneasy I become.

Then I remembered, we both have almost all classes together and we sit beside each other in majority of them so there's no avoiding him there.

I huffed and zip my bag up and swung it over my shoulder before closing my locker.

I begin walking to my class when I spotted Kylie and her new friends. I hid my face and blend in with a group of kids passing by. Luckily, they didn't see me and I went on my way to my first period.

"Aye Paisley, wait up!" I heard someone holler from behind me. I turn to see Khalil jogging towards me.

I scoffed and rolled my eyes. I walk away not wanting to deal with him. We broke up over two months ago and he still tries to get me back which it's honestly sad.

"Paisley wait." He caught up to me and stood in front of me blocking my way. "Khalil move!" I went to go around him but he keeps pushing me back, starting to piss me off. "Can we talk for a minute, please. It's really important." He pleaded, holding my shoulders.

I shrugged his hands off."There's nothing that we need to talk about, Khalil. It's over between us. Why don't you go back to that bitch and leave me alone?" I said shoving him away from me.

Few people had stopped and stare at us being nosy into our business but I don't care. I want him far away from me.

"Baby- Paisley, please. I'm sorry, I never meant to sleep with her. It was a mistake! I don't even like that-"

"How long was it going on?" I cut him off.

"W-What?" He gave me a confused look.

"I said how long you two have been fucking around behind my back?" I crossed my arms. "And you better not lie too."

Khalil looked around hesitant to speak. He sighed and said," We fucked for three months but it was a mistake sleeping with her."

"A mistake you made over and over again?" I questioned. "You know what, I don't care anymore. I thought I could make you happy. I thought you loved me but now I feel so dumb to ever think that you would. I should've seen the signs that you wasn't interested in me and left it at that but I loved you so much, I stayed. I wanted to be by your side. I would lie and say you didn't break my heart, that you seeing you with my bestfriend doesn't faze me but it did." I felt tears prickled in the corner of my eyes remembering that night.

Khalil stayed silent with his jaw clenched.

"It still hurts but I'll get over it." I tried to hold in my tears. "But right now, all I want for you is to leave me alone, please."

"Paisley-" I walked away before he could say anything else.

I sniffled and quickly wiped my tears away. I don't want to waste any tears on him. He's nothing but a liar, a cheating prick. Besides, I have more important things to do than cry over someone like him.

I went class seeing few students there early and sit down at my seat. Then my phone dinged in my jacket pocket. I took it out and looked into the notification to see a new text message from Jason.
