LAUREL POV.

I tried getting my hand of tom, but he won't listen to me until we finally get out from the cafeteria, ready to head at the hallway.

That's where i feel someone grab my other wrist.

"Nick!?.." I gasp, laughing awkwardly. I look at Nick, then back at tom. "Look man, you're hurting laurel, let go." Nick spoke.

I thought tom will start a fight, but instead he grip at my wrist tightly.

"You let go." Tom say, stepping in front of nick. "How dare you laid your filthy hands on her." Tom added.

"Chill, i didn't mean it when we're at the party, we're just-" "having fun? Having fun while kissing her neck and making her uncomfortable!? How dare you call it having fun." Tom slam him at the wall, making nick cut his words.

Nick didn't spoke any more and let go of me. Once tom was done scaring him with his death stare, he wasn't satisfied enough and Almost hit him with his fist, where i almost panic. And thank goodness it's just the wall.

Tom then drag me. I felt a little guilty of making him involve with this small fight, he don't deserve this tho.

Me and tom walk upstairs, where we usually make out after the free time or skipping classes.

Tom locked the door, taking all the curtains down and making sure no one saw us come in.

I gulped. Seeing tom got this mad was unusual, he look like a complete different person.

Tom walk closer to me, then i feel the table at my back. I tilt my head at him, giving a doe eyes that make him look back and forth at me, left and right.

"Why didn't you answer my text?" He ask. "I..i haven't checked my phone today.." I tried to think for an excuse.

"That isn't a reason lou. Is this what you've been doing when I'm not around, fucking the basketball captain-" *SLAP*

tom didn't finished his word, he trace his finger at his jawline while i look at him furiously.

"I was drunk, i was drunk okay! I don't know what happened, so don't ever accused me of something i didn't even done!" I yell at him.

"You know, this is bullshit. Forget what've been done and stop this shit, because if we'll continue to go back and repeat this over again then I'm done." I told him.

"What do you mean? You're stopping this just because you have other guy's in you? Is that how proud you are right now!?" He ask me, his voice still obedient and impatient.

"Are you telling I'm being a whore, tom!?" I respond. "No! I know you aren't but isn't weird because after all my effort and assurance are actually not even enough!?" He adds.

I shake my head, "this is mess up."

I didn't wait for his reply and walk pass him. Tom then grab my hand, but i simply shrug it off from him as i continue to walk out.

I couldn't help to feel my tears well up my eyelids, my heart was pounding hard my chest as i swing the door open in front of me and quickly got out from the place.

I use my thumb to wipe my cheeks, tears were slowly running down my jaw as i couldn't help it.

It hurt, not because we're now over, to the fact that we didn't even call ourselves as totally official couple, we didn't last.

It sounds stupid, i know.

I was now walking back at locker, my tears is almost-dry.

before i can grab a book, someone put their hands in my shoulder, "Lou? were you crying?"

it's bill. i faced him, then looking at the small mirror attached at the door of my locker.

I then sniff slightly. "No, it's um.. i just got some cold, that's all." i lied.

Bill look at me suspiciously, "you sure?"

I nodded quickly, before walking pass him. even bill i couldn't even look at straight to his eyes, it felt like i was also looking at tom.

And it hurt more.

. . .

AUTHOR POV.

Laurel gesture her hand into a over ringing phone, She wiped her tears away and sniffled harshly. she stare at the first name that appears in her cellphone. it made her heart shattered, the name that will always make her feel regret.

Click....

she simply declined the call, throwing the phone back at the other side of the bed as she snuggled herself at the sheets.

She never felt so broken like this, never with any man, except for max that made her feel like it was her forever to feel as if she never feel love against with anybody.

But there he is, tom. tom made her believe again, made her think like he wouldn't do as such thing as her past experience. but there he is also, doing the shit he promised he wouldn't.

Laurel then heard a window slide open, she quickly pop her head out, seeing a towering figure from the glim light as she knew who is it already.

That hat figure, that ponytail, that posture, that height.. that move. there's no other than the man of all women.

"Lou.. can we talk?"
