augustine
i can't believe summer is almost over.
i'm gonna miss spending so much time with James. he'll be back at school and i'll be back at mine.
apparently being hated by my parents wasn't enough. they had to send me to an all girls private school.
it is miserable.
"james can you believe summer is almost over?" i ask
"no. time has flown." he responds
"how will we be able to see each other as much?" i ask
"uh. i guess we'll figure that out." he responds vaguely
he continues. "i'm gonna hop in the shower."
"okay." i respond
~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~
james has been in the shower for a bit. i'm just sitting here on my phone but his phone is going off.
i wonder what it is. what if it's important?
i get up and walk over and look at the screen
betty ❤️
good morning babe! 6 more days until i see you again! i'm so excited.
betty ❤️
i miss you like crazy.
betty ❤️
anyways gotta go wake inez up.
betty ❤️
i love you 😘
my heart drops.
what? he's still with betty? how can that be. we've been together for more than a month now?
i scroll through their chat and see all their conversations
he's been with me this whole summer and acting like a loving loyal boyfriend. this whole time.
how could he do this to me? to her even?
i've been in love with him since i was 7 years old! i've waited for this moment. and it's all a lie?

i get out of the shower and get dressed.
augustine was starting to stress me out with all those questions about seeing each other when school starts.
i mean betty will be back and i won't be able to sneak around. i gotta end things soon.
i walk out and see a completely empty room.
"august?" i yell
"augustine?" i yell again
nothing. maybe she has an emergency. i grab my phone and see a message from her
make sure you tell betty how much you love her to make up for what we've been doing all summer when she gets back.
shit.
she must've seen texts from betty.
oh my gosh. what have i done.
"shit. shit. shit shit shit shit." i mutter
what have i done?
i've been justifying cheating on betty? every day i wake up and see augustine laying next to me and i send a text to betty telling her how much i miss her and love her?
what the hell have i done?
i mean. it's not like i was lying. i do miss her. and i do love her. i do.
but i've been with some girl the whole time.
she doesn't seem to know.
i will never tell her. i will never mention this ever again.
