Swiftly, I flung myself into the car, trying to start it as fast as I could. During the process, I turned on my phone to the app 'find my iPhone', which I knew contained his location. Then, I zoomed into the location he was at and entered the address onto the navigation on the car. I knew that if I wasn't fast enough, I couldn't catch him in the act, meaning that I'd have to wait for another opportunity, which wasn't likely to happen. So, as soon as I finished entering the address, I set off.

Of course I couldn't just knock on the front door and park right at the house, that would be too obvious and it would give him time to cover everything up and pretend nothing happened. So, I decided to park around the corner of the street and walk to the side window. Even if this was trespassing, it's for the sake of my relationship with Simon. Stealthily, I crept around to the side window of the house, bobbing my head up and down to make sure he didn't see me. Of course I knew he was with another girl, the same one Josh described to me back at the party. They were chatting on the sofa, completely oblivious of me watching them.  Cautiously, I pulled the phone out of my pocket, hoping I could record them as evidence of him lying to me. However, in the process, I somehow managed to drop my phone. And even worse, the window was slightly open. I began to creep towards the other side of the house, as I heard quiet whispers slowly growing louder and louder. I attempted to breathe shallowly, hoping they couldn't sense my shaking body nearby. As the footsteps grew louder, my body felt more tense. I knew that if I was caught now, I would be done for. Tension grew as I became more nervous, tempted to just run away. Then, the footsteps came to a stop, and I heard a relieved voice say, "Simon you're being dramatic, there's nothing there. Come on, let's sit back down."

I let out a deep exhale as the footsteps drew further away, and I crept slowly back towards the window. This time, I actually managed to pull out my phone without dropping it, and I hit the record button, analysing their every moves. As the minutes drew by, they became more and more close - at one point I even thought they were going to kiss.

As they both glared into each other's eyes, the girl wrapped her arms around Simon's neck, almost stopping him from pulling away. But even worse, he grabbed her hips and began to lean in. I felt my blood boil, almost like it was about to erupt as they drew closer and closer, until their lips touched and I had reached my limit.
