A/N: SO, this chapter gets very dramatic and I think you will LOVE it.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wow, my heart has honestly been ripped out of my chest and stamped on one hundred times. I can’t believe he’d do that, I can’t believe she’d do that. She’s my best friend, and he’s the love of my life.
What happened? You honestly want to know? My best friend, Katy, who knows that I am in love with him; just walked up to him and hugged him. He called her a gorgeous princess, and she hugged him; and he hugged her back! I honestly can’t breathe.
She’s just sat next to me again, and everyone is staring at me. My muscles are tense, my eyes are narrow and I’m clenching my jaw. This time, I don’t care about ‘playing it cool’.
‘’What the fuck was that?’’ I spat, turning to Katy.
Katy gasped, but I could see the smirk on her face. She wanted to do this; some best friend she was. I was shaking with anger.
‘’What, babe? You’re not the only one that’s got a thing for Mr Autumn, you know.’’
‘’How fucking dare you?’’
‘’Babe, I love you, but you’re acting like a freak.’’
‘’GIRLS; GET OUT.’’ Mr Autumn yelled across the room. Me and Katy both jumped, and glared at each other.
I pretty much ran, while Katy skipped along behind me. I could feel her smirking at me. I ran to the other side of the corridor and sat in the corner, begging the world to swallow me up. Katy stood over me and started laughing.
‘’Katy; how could you?’’ I whimpered, looking up at her.
‘’I’m sorry, but he is so hot. It’s annoying when you get all the attention.’’ She said, as if him being hot made up for the way she’d behaved.
I tried to speak, but my words were replaced with tears. I choked out a sob just as Mr Autumn came in to view. By now, it was break time and people had filled the corridors. I didn’t care for the stares I was getting from younger students; I didn’t care about anything anymore.
‘’You two; come to my office now.’’ Mr Autumn hissed angrily, causing everyone to ‘ooh’ and ‘ah’.
I stood up, wiped away my tears and followed Mr Autumn, my head down the whole time.
When we arrived at his office, I was told to wait outside while Mr Autumn spoke to Katy. I stood there, watching the students pass me. A few of them snickered at me, causing me to give them my middle finger. Katy walked out of the office with an angry look on her face. She turned to me and apologised, touching my arm gently. She walked off quickly, and I braced myself.
I walked in to Mr Autumn’s office with my eyes closed, terrified to see his face. However, I instead felt his arms around me. I opened my eyes and felt my face against his shirt. He was hugging me!
‘’I’m sorry that your friend made up that shit about you.’’ He sighed, letting me go.
I was shaking, now. He didn’t believe that I loved him? Wow, he was dumb.
‘’I uh- it’s okay?’’ I said, sounding unsure.
He smiled at me, showing those beautiful teeth. I gave him a tight smile, a stray tear falling down my cheek. He didn’t seem to notice.
‘’Oh, guess what? I found your Year 7 picture!’’ He sniggered.
‘’Oh, no!’’ I squealed.
‘’Oh, yes! Come and look.’’
I followed him to the other side of his desk and leaned over to the picture on his laptop. I grimaced.
‘’Oh my gosh, I look disgusting. Look at my frizzy hair, and my face! I’m not wearing any make- up!’’
‘’You know I think you look cute with frizzy hair, and this photo proves you’re naturally beautiful.’’
I froze, feeling my cheeks warm up. He’d never called me beautiful before; in fact, no one had called me beautiful before. I could feel my heart smashing against my ribcage.
‘’Y- you think I’m beautiful?’’ I stammered.
‘’I don’t just think, I know you’re beautiful.’’
I turned to look at him, then. He met my gaze, a slight smile playing on his lips. Before I knew it, he leant forward and pressed his lips against mine. My heart honestly felt like it was going to burst out of my chest, and my head was on fire. I kissed him back, and pulled him closer. Then, he pulled away just as quickly as he’d kissed me.
‘’That wasn’t meant to happen; that was stupid of you. It won’t happen again, I assure you. Get out, now.’’ He stammered, not able to look me in the eyes.
‘’W-what? You kissed me! Don’t blame it on me!’’ I hissed, my eyes filling up.
I ran to the door, pulled it open and turned to look at him.
‘’How could you do that to me, Alex?’’ I whimpered.
‘’Do what? I- I didn’t do anything; it was all you.’’ He lied.
‘’YOU ASSHOLE.’’ I screamed through my sobs.
All of the people in the corridor fell silent, watching me with wide eyes. I could hear the tapping of heels as a few teachers came to see what was happening. Mr Autumn was glaring at me and shaking his head.
‘’Piss off, you’re causing a scene.’’ He spat, making me feel 2 inches tall.
‘’I hate you.’’ I managed to choke out, before turning around and walking away.
‘’Madeline; could you come here, please?’’ Mrs Bings, a French teacher, called out.
I ignored her, and carried on walking. I walked right out of school, right home. Yes, I walked the 2 hour walk home, because I couldn’t bear to be near him. Forget my heart pushing out of my chest; he just ripped it out and threw it away.
The worst part? I had told him I hated him, when what I really meant was I love you.
