Love Dose

Chapter 1

Before I go into this story I just want to say that I had to restart this story because the old one I wrote was extremely bad. So I decided to restart. (The plot has now changed) Enjoy~

I felt like wherever I went people stared. It was painful. I couldn't cope with it anymore. Even if my back was turned, I felt their eyes burn through me.  Sometimes I got sympathetic comments or looks, but nothing really helped me.                    

                                             Sometimes people would stop in their tracks, stare then whisper to the person next to them. My face would cringe and I would look away as if I hadn't seen or heard anything. I guess they found out everything. But then again, couldn't control the rumors. It's something that just happens.

                                              Its funny because I used to be so happy. No tension. No worries what anyone will think of me. But you can say that "Happily ever after" isn't forever. But at least, that's what I think.

                                             It's been one week since I found out that my boyfriend Alex posted those pictures. They were pictures he'd asked me to send him- of me naked. Course, I was reluctant at first, but I trusted him. What was even worse was, I wasn't his only girlfriend. He had more. He had cheated on me as well as posting those pictures online. Black mailing me at first. I didn't know the reason he had done that, and I knew he wasn't going to tell me anytime soon either. I guess he thought it would be a funny joke. But I mean, there are many possibilities.

                                           I broke up with him straight away, with no second thought, when I found out what he'd done. It was a hard thing to do especially the fact that we had been dating for over a year now. I couldn't understand how anyone could be so brutal inside, but look like an angel on the outside. 

                                  

                                             It was Wednesday- the day I was regretting the most, since Alex was coming back to school after his short vacation. My tummy churned as I got ready for school. I was definitely  not ready to face him. Nor did I want to see him or talk about him. I wanted to pretend as if he never existed in my life. I wanted to move on. That's what I wanted.

  

                                        The thing I was most worried about was the fact that I hadn't even told my best friend. I was sure she would find out sooner or later. Swiftly making my way down the corridor, I looked down, making sure not to make eye contact with anyone. As soon as I got to my locker I opened my lock, shoved my books in and took the ones out for period 1 2 and 3. I slammed my locker shut. Unfortunately I didn't zip my bag up properly which, when I got up, made most of my books fall out. I sighed as I bent down to pick them all up again. Today was just not my day.

                                     Slowly getting up I looked at my watch. I had made it just in time for registration. Maybe I shouldn't have kept my head down though, because I bumped into someone. Someone tall. I looked up not expecting to see the person I was dreading there. My jaw fell open to what was in front of my eyes. It was Alex. 

                                     My throat dried up."A-lex i'm s-so sorry I didn't see y-ou-". "Well well. If it isn't my Brooklyn. My darling I have missed you so." He smiled sweetly. If I didn't know him well, I would have thought he was an innocent boy. Anger welled up inside me. How dare he hurt me and then pretend he owns me.

                                    "I'm sorry, but i'm not your  Brooklyn. Now if your excuse me, I have to go to class."Afraid that he would come after me, I roughly pushed past him, shutting the door behind me. Lucky for me, I didn't have any classes with Alex. As soon as I got in, I breathed a sigh of relief. I was safe. I looked around the class to see a lot of familiar faces. Conversations had now stopped and all eyes were on me. They were doing it again. Staring. But there was one particular face, that made me forget about all of them and make me smile.

                                   

                                   "BROOKLYN!!", Jenny screamed, waving her hands madly in the air. Before I even got to say a "hi" she grabbed on to me, squeezing me so close to her. "Jenny!! Get off me, I cant breath!", I begged almost choking.

                                   She finally loosened her grip on me. I breathing, starting getting my breath back. "I'm so..sorry Brook. I just.....", she whispered, making sure no one would hear.  At first I had no idea what she was apologizing about but then it struck me. She had found out. Tears welled up inside her eyes. "I can't believe you didn't tell me. Do you not trust me?".

                                 I had no idea how to respond back. I felt guilty inside, the fact that I had kept such a huge secret away from my best friend. "Brooklyn. I care for you. I don't want you to be hurt or upset. I would never tell anyone either." Her voice was shaky as huge tears silently streamed down her pale face.

                                She was crying. She was crying for me. I bit my lip, and held in my tears while regretting that I didn't tell her. I stood extremely still, unsure what to do or say next. 

   

                                 Finally after a long silence our teacher came in. In some way I was relieved. "Okay class please take your seats." The teacher stared at me before going on with her lesson. I had a bad feeling of what was going to happen next, because I knew for a fact, that Jenny and Alex weren't the only ones who knew the whole story...
