Trust Issues

Part 5

The next few weeks went well, Danny and I stayed together and he kept his promise, he didn't go to any parties and if we got invited to the odd special party, he stayed completely sober. For that, I was proud of him. Well when I say things had been ok, something funny has been going on. Danny doesn't seem to want to spend as much time with me. When I asked him to hang out, he was always busy or doing work or catching up on a deadline. There was one thing about Danny, he never met his deadlines, ever. It was strange, he never wanted me to be there around him and he didn't want to talk to me. I acted like everything was ok but in reality, things were really worrying me.

I was sat in my room, Alisha ans Lauren had disappeared somewhere to go and see the new maths teacher who arrived today. I wanted to go and see him and check him out but my English essay called. I sat at the desk, looking out the window getting distracted by the moving clouds or the birds flying past. Anything to stop me from doing this essay. I threw my pen down and put my head on my note pad, this work was torture, it should be illegal. I wanted to cry when my phone started to flash and vibrate on the table. I moaned and looked over to it to see a text from Danny and his photo flashing on my phone. I smiled and picked up the phone, it was special. Danny was never the one to text me, ever. I opened up the text.

"Come meet me in my room, I need to talk to you xx"

That was weird. I wondered what he wanted to talk to me about. Was he going to break up with me?. I truly loved Danny, everything about him and him breaking up with me would break my heart. I grabbed my hoodie and walked out of the door. Walking down the corridor, I put my hoodie on and started texting on my phone. I ran down the stairs, jumping around every corner. Finally I reached Danny's corridor. I walked down to his room to see the door open.

I scrunched my face, looking confused. Why was his door open?. As I crept closer, I heard the sound of laughing and giggling. It definitely wasn't Danny or any of his friends laughing. I plucked up all of my courage and barged into the room all guns blazing. That was when I saw it. Danny lay in bed, snogging the face off Charlene. I looked at them both, the anger building up inside me, about to explode like a volcano.

"Danny?"

"Rach, Rach What are you doing here?" He asked, startled.

"How could you Danny?" I asked, tears in my eyes

"It's not what it looks like"

"Oh really, well it looks to me like you've just had sex with your ex girlfriend Danny"

"Well I did it better than you did" she said, with a drunken giggle.

"Butt out of it you bitch" I replied, then turned to look at Danny.

"We never actually did it...." Danny said, with another giggle.

I walked up to him, my fist clenched and smacked him, smacked him hard on the cheek.

"What was that for?!?" He said, holding his cheek that was going red.

"Oh you know damn well what that was for! You promised me Danny, you promised"

"But...."

"Forget it, I don't even want to look at you..."

I stormed out of the room, running down the corridor, hearing Danny's footsteps running behind me.

"RACH! RACH WAIT!" He shouted.

I ran quicker and as I was about to turn the corner I shouted.

"And if you hadn't already guessed....WE'RE FINISHED....FOR GOOD"

I turned the corner, tears in my eyes and wondered where to go next.

I kept having to wipe the tears from my eyes. I wondered why people got so upset about people cheating but when you were truly in love, it all made sense. I made my way over to the auditorium, where it would be empty and where I could just sit and think. I tried to avoid as many people as possible, dodging and hiding behind corners. My mission was successful and I pulled open the door of the auditorium. I stood at the top of the stair case going down, looking at the stage. The theatre empty, I sunk into a seat at the back and started to cry, hugging my knees, wanting the ground to swallow me up. I started to think about how I found out and there was only one explanation. Charlene had Danny's phone, text me so I would find out. Her aim was to split me Danny and I up so she could get him back, mission accomplished.
